M: You look so excited, what happened to you.
W: I will go to Europe on business, you know it’s my fist time to get there.
M: When is it that you are leaving?
W: In just four weeks, and I am excited. But there are still some things I have to do before I go.
M: Like what?
W: Like renewing my passport, calling the travel agency to book my plane ticket and, what’s more important, figuring out what to do with my apartment while I’m not here.
M: You are not going to give it up, are you?
W: No way, I’ll never find another apartment around here. But I don’t like the idea of paying three months’ rent on an empty apartment, either.
M: Perhaps you can rent it to others.
W: Yes, but whom to?
M: Let me see. Oh, I know just the person, a classmates of mine, Jim Tomas, is coming here to do
some research this autumn, from September to November.
W: That’s exactly when I’ll be away. That will be great, as long as the landlord agrees.
M: I’ll be calling Jim late this week anyway, so I’1l tell him about it.
W: Well, thanks, Bill, let me know what happens. That extra money will really come in handy?
