Mike: It's this new online game that just came out－the graphics¹ are amazing! When you start, you can customize your character. You then fight monsters and when you defeat one, it drops an item². Sometimes, these items³ are really great, but most of the time they're nothing special.

Amanda: So that's what you've been doing all day? That sounds really boring and pointless. Think about it－you could've worked for eight hours and earned a good amount of pocket money. Or maybe you could've gone out with friends and watched a movie, or two, or three!

Mike: Nah, those things are absolutely boring compared to this game. This afternoon, I started out at level 1, and now I'm at level 60! I also now have great armor and a powerful⁴ sword⁵, not to mention all the jewels I've collected which can be sold for a handsome profit.

Amanda: You're impossible! Anyway, I'm going to the convenience store to get a snack－do you want anything?

Mike: Yes! Can you pick me up a cash card for this game? I need some special items...
