    RICHARD: Not too bad.
     I think I passed in
     English and Mathematics.
     The questions were very easy.
     How about you, Gary?
    GARY: The English and Maths papers
     weren't easy enough for me.
     I hope I haven't failed.
    RICHARD: I think I failed the French
     paper.
     I could answer sixteen of
     the question.
     They were very easy.
     But I couldn't answer the rest.
     They were too difficult for me.
    GARY: French test are awful, aren't
     they?
    RICHARD: I hate them.
     I'm sure I've got a low mark.
    GARY: Oh, cheer up!
     perhaps we didn't to do badly.
     The guy next to me
     Wrote his name
     at the top of the paper.
    RICHARD: Yes?

     and looked at it for three
     hours! He didn't write a word!
