R: Rebecca F: Father
Rebecca and her father are discussing her study plan for the following school year.
R: Dad, my school guidance counselor said I should talk to you about my class choices next fall.
F: Sure, Rebecca. What about them?
R: I’m torn between the science and liberal arts fields.
F: I see. Are you still interested in becoming a doctor?
R: Yes, I am.
F: Then choose science.
R: But I’ve also thought of becoming a lawyer like you.
F: Well, in that case, you should probably choose liberal arts.
R: I’m so confused.
