STEVEN:    I've been here since 9:00
   this morning.
MARIA:    I don't understand. You've
   been there for three hours.
N:    "You've been there for three
   hours," says Maria. It's hard for
   her to believe Steven is telling
   the truth. Especially when he
   says. . .
M:    Yes, I've been here forever.
N:    Now listen to someone telling
   you something you think is hard
   to believe. Use the negative to
   show you don't believe that

JAKE:    I handed the script to you
   this morning.
MARIA:    No, you didn't.

F:    1 gave the book to you yesterday.
N:    You say it the other way. . .
M:    I gave you the book yesterday.
N:    But if you hear a sentence like
   this. . .
F:    I gave you the book yesterday.
N:    You say. . .
M:    I gave the book to you yesterday.
N:    In other words, use the other
   word order to express the same
   idea that you hear. OK? Let's
