Is there a specific reason that you won't be able to submit it by next Friday?

AI see. I wasn't able to submit my essay on time because of some technology issues, but everything has been resolved now. Will this affect my grade?

BI understand. Since this is a really big project, would it be possible to work with other classmates?

CYes, I already have two papers due next week for other classes. I want to make sure to do a good job on this paper, so I figured I would see if it was possible to have a few more days to work.

DYeah, but those readings are usually pretty short. I'm sure you can finish all of them before our discussion during the next class. Give it a try at least, and if you need more time, you can have an extension.

EThe research paper sounds like a lot of work. Do you have any suggestions on how I can pick a topic and find good sources? Sometimes it's hard for me to know where to start.

BI don't know! There are so many options. I was thinking of maybe studying in Asia or Australia.
