Dialogue 1

A: Hi, Mike, do you have a minute? I'd like to introduce you to a good friend of mine. This is Camilla Peters, she is probably one of the foremost plastic surgeons on the West Coast these days, she's not only fabulous with a knife, but she's also my business partner and one of my nearest and dearest friends.

B: Ms. Peters, I'm enchanted. How do you do?

A: Camilla, this is Michael Boardman. He's the managing director of the Los Angeles Women's Health Clinic. A busy and energetic man, but he always manages to make enough time out of his busy schedule to beat me once in a while on the golf course.

C: Mr. Boardman, I'm pleased to meet you. It is true what Clark said?

B: Don't believe everything you hear from this guy. I hardly ever manage to beat him.

C: Please tell me more about what you do.

B: I'll be happy to.
