Ivan: Hallo, Paul, old chap! Haven’t seen you for ages. How are you getting on?

Paul: I’m very glad to see you again! Everything is O.K. Well, Ivan, I suggest we should go somewhere and have a drink.

Ivan: No objections. But first tell me, old man, what are you doing here? You look so anxious as though you are solving a very serious problem.

Paul: Right you are, Ivan. I’m a correspondence student of the Academy. They send me a lot of written assignments and demand that everything should be done on time. I’m busy like hell, you know…

Ivan: So am I! The difference is that you don’t have to attend classes three times a week. You can manage your time more freely than me, a poor part-time student.
