Using Battery Power
Luisa: The Battery on my computer is almost Out of juice.
Allesandro: Did you bring a Spare?
Luisa: It’s a Rechargeable battery, so instead of replacing it, I need To plug it in, but there are no Outlets in here.
Allesandro: I don’t see one either.
Luisa: Forget it. I’ll just finish watching the movie on my phone. Oh no, my phone battery is Running low, too. It’s a high-Capacity battery and is supposed To discharge slowly, giving me a full day of Power. I don’t know what’s wrong with it.
Allesandro: Do you want to borrow my Radio? At least you can listen to music for a while.
Luisa: A radio? You mean an old-fashioned radio?
Allesandro: Yeah, it uses Disposable batteries and I brought Plenty.
Luisa: No, thanks. I don’t think a radio will do me any good. Maybe there’s an Emergency generator around here. I just need enough Electricity to finish watching my movie.
Allesandro: I don’t think that will Do you any good, and plus, the emergency generator is supposed to be used for emergencies and only In the event of a Power failure.
Luisa: Exactly! What can be more of an emergency than not knowing how a movie ends?
