Teresa sees her classmate Bill in a stationery store.
T:Hey, Bill! I didn' t expect to see you here.
B:Hi, Teresa. How was the first week of the semester?
T:It was good, but I need more school supplies than I realized.
B:Same here. Thankfully, this store is close to our school and has everything we need.
T:Yeah, I already bought a bunch of folders and notebooks here last week.
B:Let me guess. You came to get some binder clips and highlighters for our math class.
T:That' s right. The teacher said we will also need a calculator and a protractor.
