Jane: Mom, I just finished my paper. Can you proofread it before I hand it in?
Mom: Sure, let’s take a look. Sweetie, this is terrific. Your ideas are so original.
Jane: Thanks.
Mom: I can tell you worked hard on it.
Jane: I really did! I started thinking about what I wanted to say three weeks ago.
Mom: Well, it was definitely worth all the time.
Jane: Let’s just hope my teacher agrees.
