Task 1: Giving Money to a Beggar
Susan: Hey, Robert, you gave that beggar some of your hard-earned cash?
Robert: I know. He looked as if he needed help.
Susan: Buy you’re always so careful with your money.
Robert: Yeah, I guess so, but I like to help when someone’s in need.
Susan: I just wonder why the guy doesn’t get a job and make his own living.
Robert: It’s just not that simple, Susan. Some people have a hard time of it in life.
Susan: Maybe they waste all their money. If you give them money, they will just go on wasting it.
Robert: Life has been good to me, Susan, and I’d like to share some of my luck.
