Cara: So for our group project, do you want to start this week?

Selim: Yeah, I want to start early so we have enough time.

Robert: Me too, but I've got a big maths project too.

Cara: How about we meet first to plan what we're going to do? Just for an hour.

Robert: Good idea, Cara.

Cara: When are you free?

Robert: I can always do mornings before 10.

Cara: Robert … Uh …

Selim: I'm sleeping before 10!

Robert: OK! OK, so when are you two free?

Cara: Wednesdays are good for me. But not very early, please!

Selim: I can't do the mornings on Wednesdays but I have 3 till 5 free.

Robert: I can do 4 o'clock, just before my maths class.

Cara: Great, 4 then. Where shall we meet?

Selim: The library?

Robert: I don't know. The library isn't a good place for a planning meeting as we can't talk in there.

Cara: How about the university café? It's near the library. We can talk in there. And eat cake.

Selim: Cake is good.

Robert: OK, so Wednesday at the café. I need to leave at ten to five to go to my maths class.

Cara: No problem. Planning will take less than an hour.

Selim: OK! See you Wednesday for cake.

Robert and Cara: See you, Selim!

I like make project with my friends or classmates, I prefer if is possible work together in our houses, because each person can give your opinions.

easy

When I study, I prefer to do it in the library. The environment and the quiet as in the library, is nowhere else.

When I and my friends were studying nearby our houses in the Cafe we were always meet us at 4 till 6, so that were really good days, maybe 15 years ago, It were a good memories

I would like to study in a relatively quite room as I must concentrate on what I am learning for an effective result.

i would like to study outside with friends. in the healthy and clean environment we human beings are feel fresh and comfortable. whenever you felt comfortable that environment is prove best for us. thats why in my opinion when you sit outside in fresh environment and enjoy natural beauty of the world so it should be best for study because there we feel comfortable.

I and my friend usually choose library to study together. When we are having exams we will come there and discussion. It quite quiet so i think it's reasonable place. Beside, the coffee shop is a second choice. We can enjoy cake and drink while we study.

i prefer to study at macdonalds with my fiend. its good place and i can concentrate in studying with big mac sandwich and my fiend like this place they take nice coffee. the restaurant is near for all of us.
