M: Hello, Professor Johnson.
W: Hello, Tony. 61 what shall we work on today?
M: Well, the problem is that this writing assignment isn't coming out right. 62 I thought I 63 (write) about what a particular sport means to me—one I participate in.
W: What sport did you choose?
M: I decided to write about cross-country skiing.
W: What are you going to say about skiing?
M: That's the problem. I thought I 64 (write) about how peaceful it is to be out in the country.
W: So why is that a problem?
M: As I start describing how quiet it is to be out in the woods, I keep 65 (mention) how much effort it takes to keep going. Cross-country skiing isn't as 66 (easy) as some people think. It takes a lot of energy. But that's not part of my paper, so I guess I should leave it out. But now I don't know how to explain that feeling of 67 (peace) without explaining how hard you have to work for 68 . It all fits together. It's not like just sitting down somewhere and watching the clouds roll by. That's different.
W: Then you'll have to include that in your point. 69 peacefulness of cross-country skiing is the kind you earn by effort. Why leave that out? 70 of your point you knew beforehand, but part you discovered as you wrote. That's common, right?
M: Yeah, I guess so...
