Question: Which refusal is most appropriate?, No thanks, I’m not interested., Sorry professor, I can’t. I’m too busy., Thank you so much for the opportunity, professor. I really appreciate you thinking of me. Unfortunately, I have two major exams and a big project due around that time, so I won’t be able to prepare properly.

How about we play together Sunday afternoon instead?, Maybe later. I’m not really into that game., A classmate you talk to occasionally is organizing a dance team for the school festival and wants you to join the performance team.

I think, you shouldn't go there and get up on stage and make a fool of yourself, I’m so proud of you for getting your first gig! I’d really love to be there cheering for you, but my grandparents are visiting from another city this weekend and I promised I’d spend the evening with them. Can you record the performance so I can watch it later? I’ll come to your next one for sure!.
