Cohesive Devices - Exercise

 

 

(Alex and Sarah are sitting at a coffee shop, excitedly planning a day out. Mark walks in, and they wave him over to join them.)

Alex: (excitedly) Hey, Sarah! I was just thinking, it's been ages since we all hung out together. Let's plan something fun!

Sarah: (enthusiastically) Absolutely! I'm so in for a day out with you guys. We could do something adventurous or relaxing—whatever everyone is up for!

Mark: (joining the conversation) Hey, sorry I'm late. What's all the excitement about?

Alex: (smiling) No worries, Mark. We were just talking about planning a day out together. It's been way too long!

Sarah: (nodding) Yeah, and we miss hanging out with you. So, we thought of doing something fun and exciting this weekend. Any suggestions?

Mark: (thoughtfully) Hmm, how about we go for a hike and have a picnic at that beautiful nature reserve nearby? The weather's been perfect lately.

Alex: (enthusiastically) That sounds awesome! I love hiking, and it's a great idea to be surrounded by nature. What do you think, Sarah?

Sarah: (excitedly) I'm in! Hiking sounds like a perfect plan, and a picnic sounds so much fun too. Count me in for sure!

Mark: (grinning) Great! It's settled then. We'll go hiking this Saturday. I'll check the trail and make sure it's a good one.

Alex: (appreciatively) Thanks, Mark! You're the best at finding the best spots. It's going to be a fantastic day!

Sarah: (checking her phone) Oh, and I heard there's a new ice cream place near the nature reserve. How about treating ourselves after the hike?

Mark: (smiling) Sounds like a perfect reward after a hike! Count me in for ice cream too.

Alex: (playfully) Oh, it's a deal then. Hiking, picnic, and ice cream—Saturday's going to be epic!

Sarah: (laughing) Absolutely! I can't wait for the weekend to arrive.

Mark: (glancing at his watch) Alright, I should get going, but I'm really looking forward to this day out. Thanks for inviting me, guys!

Alex: (grinning) Of course, Mark! It wouldn't be the same without you. See you on Saturday!

Sarah: (waving) Bye, Mark! See you soon.

(Alex and Sarah are continuing their coffee catch-up, now even more excited for the upcoming fun-filled day with their friend, Mark.)
