Mrs Payne: I must/shouldbe off really. I want to catch the 3 o’clock bus to town and it’s nearly a quarter to 3.

Mrs Brown: You can/may as well have another cup and catch the 3.30. You must/have io run to catch the 3 o’clock now and you may/can miss it even then.

Mrs Payne: All right then, thank you. And сап/must I have another of those chocolate biscuits?

Mrs Brown: Of course, you сап/should. Here you are...

Mrs Payne: Did you read about that awful business at the new comprehensive school last week?

Mrs Brown: Yes, I did. A boy assaulted a teacher with a knife. Whatever next? Mrs Payne: He must/should be given a good beating. The children can/may do what they like, and the teachers can’t/mustn’t do anything to punish them... May/can I have another biscuit?

Mrs Brown: Of course — help yourself.

Mrs Payne: Ah, well, 1 must/have to go now... Oh dear! Is your clock right? It can ’t/mustn*t be twenty past three already.

Mrs Brown: I’m afraid it is. You've missed the 3.30 train too now. You may/should stay here for a chat and go to town after 5 o'clock tea.

Mrs Payne: Yes, I think I'd follow your advice.

     A DOG’S LIFE
     
701. 
     Ben: I hear you’re retiring at the end of the year. Max. What will you do with yourself when you have stopped working?
     
702. 
     Tom: Absolutely nothing. I’ll have been working for this company for forty years by the end of October. I think 1 deserve a complete rest.
     
703. 
     Ben: Forty years! You'll have seen a lot of changes in that time.
     
704. 
     Tom: Yes, and most of the changes have only made things worse. Formerly I was proud of my work, but I can’t be proud of it now. Every two or three years they put a new manager with new ideas in charge of the factory — and he tells you what you’ve been doing is all wrong.
     
705. 
     Ben: Why have you stayed on all these years then, Tom?
     
706. 
     Tom: Well, it's the same thing wherever you go. However well you do your job, you are not promoted unless you are a friend of the manager’s. And the present manager has certainly been no friend of mine.
     
707. 
     Ben: You don't sound to be sorry to leave.
     
708. 
     Tom: No. I won’t, but it’s no better at home. Instead of the manager giving me stupid orders, my wife will do it.
