M: Hey Mary, you seem to be very much annoyed. What happened?
W: Rush hour in this city is killing me.
M: Ah, yes. Rush hour is terrible, especially in the morning between 8 and 9. But what else can you expect in a city this big?
W: Well, I think the local government could help improve things. I mean, getting rid of rush hour may be impossible, but it could be made more tolerable, don't you think?
M: Um… but I'm not sure how.
W: Well, for example, the subway system could have air conditioning. I know many cities in the world have air conditioning in their subway, so why can't we? It gets so hot in the summer. I can hardly breathe down there. And add to that the rush-hour crowds with strangers packed close together in the subway carriages, the whole thing is just horrible.
M: Ah, yes, you are completely right. The trains here are too old. The government should definitely invest in new ones with air conditioning. I guess I'm fortunate I take the bus instead.
W: Oh, that's much better.
M: Yeah, it's more convenient. Bus No. 36 goes straight from my house to the office. It's a 30-minute ride and I don't have to make any changes.
W: That sounds nice. I tell you, my current commute is killing me. Maybe I should move closer to the office.
M: Well, I know a great housing agent. I found the flat I'm living in now through him. And I love it.
W: Hmm, could you send me his number, please?
M: Sure thing. Just tell him exactly what you are looking for and I'm sure he will find something good.
