Mike: Want to come see my new Guitar Hero game?

Amanda:I can't. I have to go home and practice the piano. I'm playing in a recital¹ next week.

Mike: You'll be good enough without practice. You're a natural.

Amanda: I can read music pretty well, but I'd be nothing without practice. I can't play by ear, and I know you used² to be able to do that.

Mike: Yeah, I can do that some, but I'm too lazy to try to read notes. I was so glad when my parents finally let me quit³ taking lessons. Guitar Hero is as musical⁴ as I get now.

Amanda: Is that anything like those dance games where you have to step on the arrows⁵ the computer tells you to?

Mike: Yes, almost exactly like that. The computer tells you what keys to hold down and when to strum.

Amanda: I want to try it, but I'm terrible at those dance games. I just can't keep the beat. I guess I could come try it for awhile though.

Mike: It will still be fun even if you're not good at it. And it will be even more fun for me if I win all the time.
