1-- You always work too hard, Jim. As the saying goes, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. You should spare some time for a rest.
2--I know it is no good for my health if I am staying in the classroom all day. But how about my paper?
1-- Just take it easy. Come on with me.
2-- I'm terribly sorry I can't go with you. Shall we find some other time?
