    1    Jane's been here only two weeks.
    2    All in all, I'm very pleased.
    3    I've been able to save a little money this month.
    4    That is to say, she has very few acquaintances.
    5    For instance, they are always ready to help me.
    6    The students in the class come from many countries.
    7    One of them is from Mexico while another is from Iraq.
    8    Others are from Brazil while others are from Algeria.
    9    Meanwhile, I'll be here for another three years.
    10    Anyway, let's not go to a movie.
    11    Why don't you come around seven?
    12    Shall we leave at two?
    13    Let's go, shall we?
