W: Well, I'd like to, but Mum asked me to see her nephew Tom at No. 1 People's Hospital.

M: It doesn't matter. What's wrong with Tom? Does he have a bad cold or have a headache?

W: I was told that he hurt himself in the left left during the football game.

M: I'm sorry to hear that. How long has he been in the hospital?

W: Three days. He was sent to the hospital as soon as his leg was hurt.

What was said before this conversation?


M: Mary, would you go to the Children's Center with us this Sunday afternoon?
