Jack: hi Amelia, are you at the uni today?
Amelia: Yup.
Jack: I have the flu. I think I won't be able to get out of bed today. Could you let prof. Simons know that I am sick?
Amelia: Sure! You're sure it's the flu? Most people who think they have the flu usually just have a cold. 
Jack: I don't know. I have sore throat, and sneezing.
Amelia: With the flu you would run a high fever.
Jack: Luckily, I don't have it.
Amelia: When did it start? Symptoms of the flu tend to come on abruptly.
Jack: Hmm, actually I've been feeling bad for a few days. Today it became much worse.
Amelia: I think it's just a cold. What doesn't change the fact that you should stay home.
Jack: I think so.
Amelia: I think you work too much. You need some rest. Possibly, your organism is rebelling against your workaholism.
Jack: Haha, that may be true. It's embarrassing that even you noticed it.
Amelia: Sure Jack, everybody can see it. You're way too serious about the stuff.
Jack: I'll think about it. Thanks. 
Amelia: No problem. And don't worry about prof. Simons, I'll talk to him.
Jack has a flu but Amelia reckons it's just a cold. Jack should stay at home. Amelia thinks Jack is a workaholic. Amelia will talk to prof. Simons.
