Barry : I don't know how to make this machine work, Mrs. King. Could you give me a hand?
Mrs.King: Oh. Hi,Barry. It has been a long time.
Barry: Yes, Mrs. King. I just returned from my honeymoon. We wanted to do our laundry with our new washing machine, but neither my wife nor I could make it work. We believe there must be something wrong.
Mrs.King: Did you call the shop where you bought the washing machine to help you?
Barry : We did, but they have only one mechanic. We'll have to wait till next Monday.
Mrs.King: I see. Have you finished your laundry?
Barry : No. I was just trying to tell you that I don't seem to be able to make this machine work
Mrs.King: Oh, we got rid of most of the old machines. This one is new. Let me show you how to operate it.
Barry : Thank you. Mrs. King.
Mrs King: Do you have a dollar and two quarters?
Barry : Yes, here you are The old machines only took three quarters.
Mrs.King: Well, you know. Now, insert the coins, put your laundry in, put down this cover, press the "On" button, and set the time——twenty minute* will be enough——at the "Wash" setting Then set another ten minutes at the "Dry" setting All right Now you can go shopping or go home and come pick up your wash after a half hour.
