M: Oh, Lucy. You just wouldn’t believe what I’ve done.

W: I would. Come on.

M: I went to Chicago to visit my friends. I drove down to the subway station on the outskirts of Chicago. I parked my car near the station and took the train to the city center.

W: Well, sounds good.

M: So far, so good. I came back out of Chicago and went out of the subway. I noticed there was a paper under the windscreen wiper of my car. Jesus I was fined!

W: You must occupy the parking lot for a long time. You know the space for car parking in downtown is terribly limited.

M: I have to pay $200 to the South Police Station for occupying a parking lot. I have to tighten my belt this month. That is a large part of my living cost.

W: I will lend you $100 if you don’t have enough money.

M: Really? I’m so appreciative.
