Do you smoke? ,F: I don't smoke. ,M: That's good. Do you eat a lot of fruit and vegetables? ,F: Not really, especially no fruit. ,M: Well, since you don't eat fruit, I think you should drink more water because it helps fight colds. ,F: Really? Hmm...I don't like drinking water. But, well, uh, perhaps. ,M: There's no perhaps about it.

PROBLEM: M: Alice, what's your favorite movie of the year twenty seventeen? ,F: I must say it's Wonder Woman. When the movie was released in June last year, my parents were eager to take me to see it. ,M: Why did your parents want to take you to watch it so much? ,F: They considered it quite a different movie. You know, it is really rare to see a female action hero in a big budget movie. And it was also directed by a woman. I guess my parents wanted to show me that women could be powerful too.
(A) M: Yeah, I remember that the Wonder Woman is released in December and it is the only movie directed by a woman that year. (B) M: Just a minute! I do not quite follow what you are saying, would you mind repeating that? (C) M: Yeah, it is a big budget movie with $60 million in the ticket sale. It worth watching. (D) M: Indeed. Your parents are so considerable! Wonder Women is a female action hero.
