Session 5

Bill always makes empty promises but never follows through. Employees will go on strike if they don't get a pay raise, and Liz will quit if she doesn't get a promotion. The speaker has no motivation to finish a project and questions how the situation should be handled. Though the pay is low, it allows someone to make a living. A proposal was made to hire more employees which it is hoped will be accepted. Ralph quit his job because he didn't like his boss. A wage increase was given after only a year at the company. Workers plan to walk out to demand better working conditions.

Bill always makes empty promises; he never does what he says he’ll do.

We’ll go on strike if we don’t get more money.

Liz says she’ll quit if she doesn’t get a promotion. How do you want to handle the situation?

I have no incentive to finish the project.

I don’t earn much, but it’s enough to make a living.

I don’t earn much, but it’s enough to make a living.


I’ve had a productive day.

I hope you’ll accept our proposal of hiring more employees to get the job done.

Ralph quit his job, because he didn’t like his boss.

It’s a good offer, under the circumstances.

The assistant manager was given a wage increase after working in the company for only a year.

We should all walk out until they give us better working conditions.
