F: Facebook just reported that everyone in the world is only separated by an average number of 3.5 people. ,M: Wow, that doesn't seem possible! I thought the number was supposed to be 6. ,F: That's what scientists originally thought. I think we're all connected even more than Facebook reported actually. The report only included connections between those with a Facebook account.
(A) M: Facebook just reported that everyone in the world is only separated by an average number of 7 people but they don't like to share their lives. (B) M: I’m sorry, I didn’t catch that. Would you mind speaking more slowly? (C) M: You think people in the world are closely connected.

M: Can you give me some information about getting to the Town Center? ,F: Well, you can drive, but the parking is difficult. It will be quite expensive if you stay there all day. ,M: Yes, we're thinking of going to look around some of the shops, and look at the wall around the city. So we'll probably be there most of the day. ,F: In that case, you'd better take a taxi or the bus. ,M: How much does taking a taxi cost? ,F: It will be about 12 pounds. Actually I'd say it's around 16 pounds, because fares have increased recently. We can book it for you in our travel agency and it will pick you up outside. It only takes about 10 minutes. ,M: Right, I see. What about taking the bus? How much is that? ,F: It's only 2 pounds per person, it's not far from here. You go out of here, turn right on Oak Tree Avenue, and it's about a 5 minute walk down the road. The bus ride is about 15 minutes.
(A) M: We'll take the bus as the bus ride is only about 5 minutes. (B) M: We'll go there by bus as the bus ride is only about 15 minutes. (C) M: Excuse me, could you repeat the question? (D) M: Although we need to walk at least 10 minutes, we'll go there by bus as the bus ride is only about 15 minutes.

F: Hi, Tim. I was wondering if you'd like to drive me to the station tomorrow morning? ,M: I would be happy to drive you there. When do you need to go? ,F: I should get to the station an hour in advance. So I need to leave my house at 7:30. ,M: Do you have a lot of luggage? ,F: No, only one large bag and two small bags. ,M: I see, I'll take my smaller car then. Where will you leave for? Beijing, Tianjin or Guangzhou? ,F: I am going to Beijing first. Three days later I will fly to Shenzhen. ,M: Will I be able to enter the waiting room with you? ,F: I'm afraid not. You should probably just see me off at the entrance.
(A) M: I didn’t hear you. Please could you tell me again? (B) M: That's okay, I just need to say goodbye to you at the entrance and you can go on your own. (C) M: Well, I just need to say goodbye outside the train, wish you well for your trip to Japan. (D) M: Alright, I can say goodbye at the entrance and you can just go traveling with your parents.
