Would you correct my English? (Jan.5)
Hello. I wrote two dialogues. Would you check them?
No. 1 Father and daughter
M: Look at the rain come down.
F: Gee! I can't ride my bicycle [ can't bike ] to school.
M: It can't be helped. You'll have to take the train [ go there by train ] instead.
F: I see. There's always a bus, but it often comes late [ it is often delayed ].
No. 2
M: Have your eyes been itchy? [ Have you got itchy eyes?]
F: Yeah. They've been annoying [ bothering ] me this season.
M: You have a pollen allergy [ hay fever ], don't you? I know a good
clinic for the allergy.
Thank you!
