Hello students! Let's solve this question about phone conversations. We need to find who is definitely not available right now.
Who is NOT available?
Let's examine each conversation one by one. In the first one, the secretary says Mr Brown is waiting for the call. This means he is ready and available.
1. Mr Brown: Waiting for your call (Available)
In the second conversation, the secretary says she'll get Mr Jordan for Tony. This implies Mr Jordan is available to come to the phone.
2. Mr Jordan: I'll get him for you (Available)
Now look at the third conversation. The secretary says Mr Logan is in a meeting and will call back later. If someone is in a meeting, they are busy and not available.
3. Mr Logan: In a meeting now (Not Available)
