Why didn't you come to my party last night?
I'm sorry. I couldn't make it. I had to go to visit my grandmother at the hospital.
Is your grandmother ill?
No, she was hit by a car.
I'm so sorry to hear that. Was it serious?
No, the driver stopped his car in time and just hit her slightly. But the doctor suggested she stay in hospital for several days, so how was the party?
It was great. Everyone enjoyed themselves there.
How many people went to your party?
About 20. I invited all my friends and a few classmates. Oh, it's already 6:00 o'clock PM now. How about going to eat now?
That's a good idea. There is a new Chinese restaurant down the street. How about going there?
I just had some Chinese food today. How about French food or Italian food?
I prefer the latter.
