A conversation between you and a user.<|im_end|>
| <|im_start|>user
Excuse me.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes? How can I help you?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Are these drinks on sale this weekend?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Can I buy more than one case?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes. The limit is four per family.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Okay, I'll take four, please. You saved me a lot.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I know. This is a really good bargain.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Thanks.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
No problem.<|im_end|> |

A conversation between you and a user.<|im_end|>

Hey, Mark, long time no see.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Julie! It's good to see you again. How have you been?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Great. I just got back from a week's vacation in Thailand.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Really? How was it?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Fantastic! I didn't want to come back.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I hear the beaches in Thailand are beautiful.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
They are. And not only that the people are friendly, but also the food is delicious, not to mention cheap.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I do like Thai food. Did you see much of Bangkok?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Not much. I've go enough city life in Beijing.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I know what you mean. I could use a vacation myself.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Hey, wouldn't it be great if we could go to Thailand together sometime?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Yeah, it sure would.<|im_end|> |

A conversation between you and a user.<|im_end|>
| <|im_start|>user
I am so excited!<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Excited about what?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I just voted.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Is this the first time you'Ve voted?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Yes, I just had my 18th birthday this year.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
That's lucky.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Why is that?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
You turned 18 in an election year.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I didn't think about it like that.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Really?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
No, but that makes me even more excited.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
You're a part of history.<|im_end|> |
<im_start>system
A conversation between you and a user.<|im_end|>
| <|im_start|>user
Let's start out to discuss the question of payment terms.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I suppose you know very well that we require irrevocable letters of credit payable against presentation of shipping documents.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I fully understand your position. An irrevocable letter of credit ensures that the seller gets paid in time. But, on the other hand it would add to the buying costs. We've been, after all, trading partners for 3 years and you know us well. Can't you give us D / A or D / P?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I'm afraid it has been our practice so far to insist on payment by L / C.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
But on our part, our government is reluctant to approve of L / C payment for our imports. And there is the licensing problem.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
I understand that. Still, I'm not in a position to help you. Maybe we could do something later when we have had more and larger deals together.<|im_end|> |
<im_start>system
A conversation between you and a user.<|im_end|>
| <|im_start|>user
Can I get some medicine to help me?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
For your high blood pressure, we have several choices of medications.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What types of drugs can I try?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that helps you with water retention.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What about side effects from that medication?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Most people have no side effects. You will have to make sure that you drink plenty of liquids with this medication.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Do I only need to take that one drug?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I am going to add a second drug for now, Lisinopril, which is an ACE inhibitor.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What can I expect when I take that medication?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
You will feel much better except for the fact that you might have a little cough.<|im_end|> |

Look at the catalogue, John. I think I want to get this red blouse<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Don't you have one like this in blue?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Yah, but it doesn't have a red one.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Do you need every color in the rainbow?<|im_end|>

A conversation between you and a user.<|im_end|>
| <|im_start|>user
Are you watching another news report about the war?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes. The two sides declared a short ceasefire but it broke down earlier today. Several military target were destroyed by bombing. Many civilians were among the dead and wounded.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
How did this war start?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Bout side claim a small area of territory. Both sides tried to build border fences and began attacking each other.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Politicians from both sides sound increasingly belligerent. Neither side wants to compromise.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Relief agencies report that many civilians are in desperate need of food and shelter. Several European countries have agreed to send aid, but are afraid that their planes will be shot down.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What do you think will happen?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Both countries are very poor. Soon they will run out of money to finance the war. Then, perhaps, they will negotiate.<|im_end|> |

Great. The bed is exactly what I have been looking for!<|im_end|>

You have good taste. It's made of red wood.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Oh, I like red wood. How much do you charge for it?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
300 dollars.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
That's sheer robbery!<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Believe me, it's worth the price.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
It's more than I can afford. Can I make an offer?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
How much are you willing to pay?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Shall we make it 250 dollars?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
No. That price would hardly cover the cost.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What about 260 dollars?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
275 dollars is the lowest price I can offer.<|im_end|> |

A conversation between you and a user.<|im_end|>
| <|im_start|>user
Mr. Wilson. We very regret the mistakes in goods. I am very sorry and we are responsible for the mistake.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
We have no choice but to hold you responsible for the loss we sustained.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
The first problem is supposed to be solved after the investigation. About the second problem, I admit it's our fault, so we will exchange all merchandise that falls short of our sample.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Well. I hope there won't be such things.<|im_end|> |

I had the same feeling when I first came to work here. but after a period of time, I feel better, I am sure you'll get used to this busy job.<|im_end|>

I also feel that work efficiency here is very high. and you have strong working ability and professional skill, it seems that you know all, that's really wonderful!<|im_end|>

Fine! What do you need?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
OK, pick up some cured meats to go with the wine. Maybe a pound of polish sausages, ham, liverwurst, salami and any other cold cuts that are on sale. I think I saw a promotion for pastrami. Also get some cole slaw and a jar of olives.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Whoa wait a minute! Isn't that a bit too much? I mean, how much is all of this going to cost!<|im_end|>

Well, I think we could be saving more.<|im_end|>

Really, well, o. k. Get the receipts out.<|im_end|>

Let's see. We spent $ 700 dollars for our home loan payment, $ 400 on groceries, $ 75 on utilities, $ 250 on gasoline, $ 100 on books, and $ 300 on entertainment last month.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
That's $ 1825.<|im_end|>

We put $ 500 into the savings account, and $ 750 into our stock account.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
$ 3075. Our paychecks our $ 3300, combined. That means we don't have any receipts for $ 225.<|im_end|> |

<|im_start|>user
Not sure yet.How about you pop the hood and we can take a look. Mmmm, it doesn't look good.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
What do you mean? My daddy gave me this car for my birthday last month. It's brand new!<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Well missy, the white smoke that you saw is steam from the radiator. You overheated your engine so now the pistons are busted and so is your transmission. You should have called us and we could have towed you over here when your car died.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Ugh... So how long is this going to take? An hour?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I'm afraid a bit more than that. We need to order the spare parts, take apart your electrical system, fuel pump and engine and then put it back together again. You are going to have to leave it here for at least two weeks.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant

Oh, yes. We have rather mild winters. It always has much sunshine in winter. But it was very foggy when I left two days ago. I knew it would be colder here, but I thought there would be a lot of snow.<|im_end|>

We don't have much snow in winter in Beijing. In fact, we haven't had any so far this winter. The winter is rather long, but the cold is generally not severe. The temperature seldom gets as low as ten below zero Centigrade.<|im_end|>

What is the temperature today, do you know?<|im_end|>

About freezing point, I think.But the morning's forecast said that we are going to have a very cold spell in the next few days - and the temperature will probably drop to 10 or 15 degrees below zero.<|im_end|>

Fall is the best season in Beijing. It's neither hot nor cold. The sky is clear and blue. There's hardly any wind, only a slight breeze which is hardly noticeable. And we have plenty of sunshine too.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant

Stockholders meetings are held biannually. Usually the meetings are scheduled for spring and fall. In between the meetings, each stockholder receives biannual reports. Financial statements are made once a year.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What percentage of the stockholders actually attend the meetings? I'm guessing not a large percentage...<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
You're right, it's a low percentage. Also, in order to attend meetings, you have to hold a certain amount of shares. It's quite a large number, so most of the stockers are excluded from proceedings.<|im_end|>

Mr. Jones, shall we now discuss the packaging?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Very well. You know, we have definite ways of packaging garments. As to blouses, we use a polythene wrapper for each article, all ready for window display.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Good. A wrapping that catches the eye will certainly help push the sales. With competition from similar garments producers, the merchandise must not only be good value but also look attractive.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Right you are. We'll see to it that the blouses appeal to the eye as well as to the purse.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What about the outer packing?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
We'll pack them 10 dozens to one carton, gross weight around 25 kilos a carton.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Cartons?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, corrugated cardboard boxes.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Could you use wooden cases instead?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Why use wooden cases?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I'm afraid the cardboard boxes are not strong enough for such a heavy load.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
The cartons are comparatively light, and therefore easy to handle. They won't be stowed away with the heavy cargo. The stevedores will see to that. Besides, we'll reinforce the cartons with straps. Silk blouses are not fragile goods. They can stand a lot of jolting.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Maybe you are right, but the goods are to be transhipped at Hamburg or London. If the boxes are moved about on an open wharf, the dampness or rain may get into them. This would make the blouses spotted or ruined.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
No need to worry about that. The cartons lined with plastic sheets are waterproof, and as the boxes are made of cardboard, they will be handled with care.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Well, I don't want to take any chances. Besides, cartons are easy to cut open, and this increases the risk of pilferage.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Tampering with cartons is easily detected. I should say that this rather discourages pilferage.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Maybe so, but I'm afraid that in case of damage or pilferage, the insurance company will refuse compensation on the ground of improper packing, or packing unsuitable for sea voyage.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
But cartons are quite seaworthy. They are extensively used in our shipments to continental ports. There are never any complaints from our clients, and our insurance company has also approved such packing for W. P. A. and T. P. N. D.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
If you could guarantee compensation in case the insurance com - any refuses to honor a claim for faulty packing, we would be quite willing to accept cartons.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I'm sorry, but we can't take on any responsibility that is beyond our functions and powers. We'll make sure that the packing is seaworthy, but we can't commit ourselves to being responsible for every kind of mishap.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
I can understand your position. Perhaps I'm asking too much.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
We'll use wooden cases if you insist, but the charge for packing will be considerably higher, and it also slows delivery.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Well, I'll call you immediately for instructions on the matter.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant

But I work hard all the time for long hours. Often I have no time for lunch. Yet, I am still getting fatter.<|im_end|>

Bill, you know that work is not the same as exercise as it is stressful but not relaxing. And skipping meals will not help you lose weight.In fact your body will only store fat if you miss meals.<|im_end|>

I know you're right, but what can I do?<|im_end|>

How about going for a walk instead of sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper after dinner every night?<|im_end|>

Well, I trust that your presence will hasten the settlement of payment terms.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I would like to explain to you our financial position. The manufacture of machinery and its accessories and parts will consume both time and money. It takes five years to manufacture the machinery and we will have to advance the cost for the main machines to be produced, and besides this there are large sums to be paid to our subcontractors for the manufacture of the accessories and parts.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
But for an enterprise of your size, an order from us will certainly not embarrass you financially.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Well, in fact, it is beyond our financial capability.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
In what way can we solve the problem?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Have you considered the possibility of a buyer's credit?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Yes. But the sum is large, it must be provided by a group of banks.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant

Do you have any questions before you commit yourself to this?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Actually, yes I do. I was wondering about the subscription fee. And how much will you charge me during the time of redeeming this new fund?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
The subscription fee is charged at a rate of 1.2 %. But for redeeming, a rate of a usual 0.5 %, we shall charge you 1.6 % if you apply to buy it after the fund-raising period.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
So, it's going to cost me then?<|im_end|> |

Good morning, Family. We'll have our board meeting this afternoon. Can you write the agenda on the notice board?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
What will you discuss at the meeting?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
We'll talk about the financial report for the first half of the year.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
And anything else?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
We'll also discuss the personnel plan for the second half of the year.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
That's all?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Yes. Please write them down on the notice board. I want everybody to see them.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
OK.<|im_end|> |

I'm ready to settle the bill.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I hope you enjoyed your stay.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Definitely! Very relaxing.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Good. Right, that comes to $ 1,500.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What? I only stayed three nights.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
That's right, sir. Three nights at 500 dollars a night... that comes to $ 1,500.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
But your brochure said that this was a package deal and the hotel's services were all-inclusive.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, of course. The meals and excursions were included in the hotel price.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
But why are you overcharging me almost a thousand dollars? 250 dollars a night, times three nights should just be $ 750.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I'm sorry sir. The 250 - dollar rate is based on double occupancy. That means it's 250 per person. The room itself is 500 dollars a night.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Perhaps I could talk to your manager?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Of course. Just a minute; I'll get her.<|im_end|> |

So, where can I start my work?<|im_end|>

Well, your job is to compile and analyze financial information to prepare entries to accounts. You're also responsible for preparing profit and loss statements and monthly closing and cost accounting reports.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
And I represent?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Our company just concluded a business transaction. You can help with documenting varies financial sheets involved in this transaction.<|im_end|>

Ok, thank you.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
You're welcome. Feel free to ask me any time you need help.<|im_end|> |

Hello, Mr. Gao. We appreciate your letting us have the apartment.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
My pleasure. You're a sweet couple. Do you have any questions?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
The ad said rent was thirty thousand. That includes utilities and phone, I assume.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
No, it doesn't. And there's a maintenance fee for each month. It's forty NT per ping.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
That's another one thousand six hundred?<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Yes, but that doesn't include cable. It's for cleaning and trash removal. You just leave your trash outside your door.<|im_end|> |

Seat 30B is right here, sir. You may take your seat. I'll put your bag in the above compartment.<|im_end|>

Thank you, miss. Will dinner be served on the plane?<|im_end|>

Welcome to Lincoln Bank. What can we do for you?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Morning. I'm a new user of your credit card and I was wondering if I'm taking full advantage of it.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Well, there certainly are many benefits that go along with our credit card.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, of course. It's so much easier than cash, to be honest; nowadays I hardly ever use cash. I just put it on the card and pay off the balance every month.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
You know it is not necessary to pay the balance in full every month.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Really?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Yes, you will see on your monthly bill and statement the amount in full but also the minimum payment.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
So, if for some reason I was having a bad month and spent a little too much I could just pay the minimum?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Yes. As long as you keep making regular monthly payments, paying the minimum is just fine. Of course, your credit limit will be lowered accordingly.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
How so?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
For example, if your credit limit is 5,000 RIB and you owe 1,000 RIB, your available credit will be 4,000 RIB. So, your credit limit drops.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
Oh, I see. Well, I don't plan on only paying the minimum, but it's good to know that I can if I had to. Thanks for that.<|im_end|> |

I'm looking for a pair of shoes.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
What size do you wear? These shoes are on sale.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I wear size 36. This pair looks nice. Can I try them on?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Of course, yes. They look nice. And they're not expensive.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
How much are they?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
They are $ 168.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant

Hi, Mr. Smith. I'm Dr. Hawkins. Why are you here today?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I thought it would be a good idea to get a check-up.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Yes, well you haven't had one for... five years. You should have one every year.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I know. I figure as long as there's nothing wrong, why go see the doctor?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Well, the best way to avoid serious illnesses is to find out about them early. So, try to come at least once a year for your own good.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
O. K.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Let me see here. Your eyes and ears look fine. Take a deep breath, please. Do you smoke, Mr. Smith?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer and heart disease, you know. You really should quit.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
I'Ve tried a hundred times, but I just can't seem to kick the habit.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Well, we have classes and some medications that might help. I'll give you more information before you leave.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant

Aren't you lucky. The vintage-clock guy is driving a hard bargain. So I have nothing.<|im_end|> | <|im_start|>assistant
No sweat. Just go back and talk him down. Here comes Wei.<|im_end|> |
