　　Betty：I'm trying to find our favourite TV programme.

　　Maggie：Which channel is it on?

　　Betty：It is usually found on Channel 1. But I can't get anything.

　　Maggie：It must be on Channel 2. Try that.

　　Betty：I've tried that, too. I still can't get anything.

　　Maggie：What about the other channels?

　　Betty：I have tried them, too.

　　Maggie：There must be something wrong with the TV.

　　Betty：I'm afraid you may be right, I'd better take it to Mr. Lee.

　　Maggie：Good idea! If he can't repair it, nobody can!
