  Wang account development team。
  Steve: Are you serious? Congratulations James; you really deserve it。 Wow! An executiveposition; I can't believe it。
  James:  That's  not  all。  Mr。  Barnes  thinks  that  what  this  account  really  needs  is  not  onlytechnical  support  /  but  a  new  promotional  strategy  to  emphasize  the  strengths  of  oursoftware and Wang's operating systems。 My new job is to put together and supervise team/ to continue technical development and support。 In addition; as I just mentioned; the teamwill have to e up with a new and innovative marketing strategy for the product。
  Steve: That all sounds great; James。 I'm really happy for you。 If I {had} been just a littlemore of a team player; perhaps Mr。 Barnes would {of} promoted me to the team as well。 Iguess I really missed my chance yesterday。
  James:  Well;  that  is  what  I  wanted  to  talk  to  you  about  over  lunch  today。  Even  thoughthings didn't go that well for you yesterday; I understand why it happened。 I know howmuch stress you {have} been under at work to bring in a big contract。
  Steve: To be honest; I haven't been sleeping very well because of the stress。
  James: Also; I remember how much you helped me when I first joined the pany。 Thatis why I want you to be my right hand man on the new team。 Mr。 Barnes authorized me tooffer you the Assistant Executive Director's position。
  Steve: You're not joking; are you? You are being serious with me?
  James: I'm being totally serious。
  Steve: I can't believe it。 This is the chance I've been waiting for。 But; I don't understand。Yesterday Mr。 Barnes looked like he was ready to fire me。 What changed his mind?
  James: I don't think he was really that mad at you。 But he did ask me who I wanted to besecond hand mand on my team / and I said that I wanted you。
  Steve: After yesterday you would still do this for me?
  James: Like I said before; I understand why you acted the way you did yesterday。 I alsoneed your advertising expertise on the team。
  Steve: I don't know what to say。 This is the promotion I've been waiting for。
  James: Congratulations; Steve。
  (Waitress brings the food and drinks。)
  Waitress: Here are your orders and your drinks。 Enjoy your meal。

  Sarah: Oh; here he es。
  (Entering from the front the room and walking up to the podium。)
  Prof。 Clark: Good morning; class; or should I say good afternoon? Twelve o'clock classesalways confuse me。 In any case; let's begin today's lecture。 Today I want to speak aboutthe American Civil War; which I am assuming all of you read about last week in a bookby Huntington。 The Civil War c
