Example Dialogue 1:
A: Hey, you're supposed to have a really important exam coming up next week. Why are you fooling around and wasting time watching videos?
B: That exam is just too tough for me to pass. I have no chance at all. That's why I'm throwing in the towel.

Note: "throw in the towel" is an idiom meaning to quit doing something
Example Dialogue 2:
A: Why don't we go to the new Mexican restaurant after we knock off work? I heard their burritos and enchaladas are delicious.

A: Don't worry! They will make a milder version if you just request it.
B: In that case, I'm ready to give it a shot. Let's go.
