Bob and Linda are planning a ski trip

Bob: Hey Linda. Want to come skiing with us?
Linda: You're not serious. It's five o'clock and it's getting dark.
Bob: I know, but we're going to Morin Heights. They have night skiing and it's not too expensive.
Linda: How.........is a ski pass?

Bob: After 6 p.m. it's only 10 bucks.
Linda: How.........people are going?

Bob: Eight in all, if you come.
Linda: Eight! How.........cars are you taking?

Bob: Just two, with four people in each. Coming?
Linda: Maybe I will. How..........time do I have to get ready?

Bob: Lots. We're not leaving until six.
Linda: I may need to go to the bank first. How.........money do I need?

Bob: Only about twenty bucks. Ten for the ski pass, three for gas, and if we get hungry, we can stop at a McDonald's. A big Mac's just a couple of bucks, and how..........big Macs can you eat?

Linda: Okay. I have enough money for that. So tell me, what are the skiing conditions like? How..........snow do they have at Morin Heights?

Bob: Lots. The skiing conditions are perfect. Trust me.
Linda: And how.........intermediate trails do they have? I'm not an expert skier.

Bob: Lots. Don't worry. You'll be fine.
(Later, on the way home from the ski hill)
Linda: Wow! What a great ski hill. I even skied on the expert run. I don't know how ..........times I fell, but it was a lot of fun anyway. So tell me, Bob, how..........do I owe you for gas?

Bob: Let me check how.........gas I have left in the tank. That's how.........I know how.........liters I used. Yeah, I used about 20 liters, so that's 12 bucks divided by four, so each person owes me three bucks. Is that okay?
Linda: Of course.:-bd
