# Applying for a Driver’s License. Annie: How may I help you today?
Nathan: I'd like to apply for a driver's license.
Annie: Sure. Can you fill out this form, please? You’ll need your Social Security Number.
Nathan: No problem. Can I borrow a pen please?
Annie: Here it is. Do you currently have a driver's license and want to renew it, or is this your first?
Nathan: No, it’s my first, but I’ve already done this. I failed the test the first time. Here’s my form.
Annie: Thank you.
Nathan: Can I schedule the driving test for Friday afternoon at three?
Annie: Of course, no problem. Make sure you’re not late, or else you’ll have to wait a long time.
Nathan: And when will I take the written test?
Annie: You can take it online, at your convenience.

Lucas: No, I have no idea where I left it.
Derek: What are you going to do now?
Lucas: What else? I’ll have to apply for a new one tomorrow.

Use and Usage - Often Confused Words in English
source: Twominute English 2013年11月21日
'Use' and 'Usage' are two words that overlap somewhat, but are not entirely synonymous. Such words leave people confused sometimes. 'Use' can be a noun or a verb, while the word "usage" is always a noun. In simple words it can be said that "use" is most commonly used to signify the act of using, whereas the word "usage" is used when we want to refer to a practice or habitual use of something. Listen to the conversations carefully and understand how the vocabulary is used. Practice at the end to build your fluency and comprehension.
