I see the train approaching. I hope I make it in time; I don't want to miss it.
I usually check my bag one last time before the train arrives.
Good idea; let's get ready before it gets too crowded.
Hurry! You can make it if you run!

The speaker is worried about missing the train and needs to act fast.
(C) answers this feeling directly by urging the speaker to run, showing speed and encouragement.
(A) talks about checking a bag; this is slow and not connected to the fear of missing the train.
(B) speaks about getting ready before it is crowded; this does not answer the urgent worry about catching the train right now.
Therefore, (C) is the best match.

"Get on" and "get off" are phrasal verbs used to describe entering and exiting vehicles or transportation. "Get on" is used for larger modes of transport like buses, trains, planes, and bicycles, where a person steps onto or boards the vehicle. For example, "I got on the bus at the station." "Get off" means to leave or disembark from such vehicles. For instance, "She got off the train at the next stop." These phrases are not typically used for cars or taxis, where "get in" and "get out" are preferred instead.

[g] /g/play_circle_filledTo create the g, air is briefly prevented from leaving the vocal tract when the back of the tongue lifts and presses against the soft palate at the back of the mouth. The sound is aspirated when the air is released. The amount of aspiration used to produce a g is less than that for a k.
-
[eh] /ɛ/play_circle_filledTo pronounce the ɛ sound the middle of the tongue rounds slightly upward and the sides of the tongue may lightly touch the top and bottom side teeth. The lips and jaw are loose and relaxed.
-
[t] /t/play_circle_filledTo create the t, air is briefly prevented from leaving the vocal tract when the tip of the tongue presses against the tooth ridge while the sides of the tongue press against the upper side teeth. The sound is aspirated when the air is released. The aspiration for a t is greater than the aspiration for a /d/, especially when it is the first sound of a word or the first sound of a stressed syllable.
-
[aa] /ɑ/play_circle_filledTo pronounce the 'aa sound' ɑ the vocal tract is very open for the production of the 'aa sound' ɑ. In fact, the jaw is held more open and the back of the tongue is held lower for this sound than any other American English vowel sound pronunciation. The tongue touches the inside of the bottom teeth so that the top of the tongue is nearly even with the top of the bottom teeth. The lips are held open and kept rounded, but relaxed.
-
[n] /n/play_circle_filledTo create the 'n sound' n, the air is blocked from leaving the mouth by pressing the tip against the tooth ridge and the sides of the front of the tongue against the side teeth. The soft palate drops, allowing air to pass out through the nose. The sound is voiced, so the vocal cords vibrate while producing it.

-
[ao] /ɔ/play_circle_filledTo create the 'aw sound' ɔ the entire tongue is pushed back and kept low during the pronunciation of the 'aw sound' ɔ. The bottom side teeth can be felt alongside the front of the tongue during the sound. The back of the tongue has only a slight rounding upward at the very rear of the mouth. The lips are made into an oval shape, and may stick slightly outward.
-
[f] /f/play_circle_filledTo create the 'f sound' f, the jaw is held nearly closed. The upper backside of the bottom lip is pressed very lightly into the bottom of the top teeth. Air is pushed out the mouth between the top teeth and the upper backside of the bottom lip. This sound is to be a continuous consonant, meaning that it should be capable of being produced for a few seconds with even and smooth pronunciation for the entire duration. The lips are kept mostly relaxed during the production of the f. A common error English language learners make is overproducing this sound by curling the bottom lip under the top teeth. This creates problems when linking other sounds to and from the f.

"Make it in time" means to arrive before it's too late or do something before a deadline. For example, if you're rushing to catch a flight, you might say, "I hope we make it in time!". Or, if you finish a project just before the deadline, you can say, "I barely made it in time." It's what you say when you're cutting it close but still manage to be on time!

[m] /m/play_circle_filledTo create the 'm sound' m, the lips are pressed together, causing the air to be blocked from leaving the mouth. The soft palate drops, allowing air to pass out through the nose. The sound is voiced, so the vocal cords vibrate while producing it.
-
[ey] /eɪ/play_circle_filledTo pronounce the eɪ sound, begin with the tongue pushed somewhat forward but in a neutral position in the mouth. Then, as the jaw closes slightly, move the body of the tongue upward until it is near the tooth ridge--similar to the position of a 'y sound' y.

-
[ih] /ɪ/play_circle_filledTo pronounce the ɪ sound the lips are relaxed and the central/front area of the tongue is in the central/high area of the mouth for this sound. The overall neutrality and relaxed tongue and lip position is why it is one of the pronunciations used in an unstressed vowel position.
-

Emma: Josh, hurry up! The bus leaves in five minutes!
Josh: Relax, Emma. It's just a bus. If we miss it, we'll catch the next one.
Emma: The next one doesn't come for another 40 minutes! I don't want to be late for the interview.
Josh: Alright, alright. Let's speed up. Do you think we'll make it in time?
Emma: If we run, maybe! But if we walk like this, definitely not.
Josh: Ugh, I hate running for the bus. Last time I nearly tripped on the stairs trying to make it in time.
Emma: Would you rather trip or miss the interview?
Josh: Good point. Okay, let's run!
1. Why does the woman insist they need to make it in time?
2. Why does Josh initially think they don't need to rush?
