Understanding Tone and Attitude in a Conversation
Listen to the following conversation between two friends, Sarah and Tom.
Sarah: "I can’t believe how fast we finished the project! I was really worried about all the delays we faced in the beginning, but it looks like we pulled it off successfully."
Tom: "I know, right? I thought it might take us much longer. You did a great job keeping everyone motivated, especially during those tough times!"
Sarah: "Thanks! I really appreciated everyone's hard work. It's nice to see our efforts pay off like this. I can't wait to celebrate with everyone!"
