dialogue: M: Excuse me, Madam. Is the air-conditioning on? This room is as hot as a furnace. W: Sorry, sir. A new epidemic called SARS is threatening us right now. As a preventative measure, we are told to let in fresh air by opening the windows and not to use the air conditioners.
question: What does the woman mean?
choice: She is following instructions not to use the air-conditioning. The temperature is not as high as the man claims. The room will get cool if the man opens the windows.
answer: She is following instructions not to use the air-conditioning.
