--- James, can I have some black tea?
--- Sure.        .
--- Well, just a little, please.
---Two teaspoons?
---      . I have gained some weight these days.
(Minutes later)
--- How nice it is!
---        .
--- Yes, please. Do you mind me smoking here?
---         . I don’t want to have secondhand smoke. Would you like some cookies,
instead? Eating more and smoking less will do you good.
--- I also suggest that you follow a special diet.
---         
Of course!
Any sugar?
Okay, thanks.
Well, go ahead.
No, one is enough.
How do you want it made?
Would you like some more?
