TASK DEFINITION: In this task you are given a small conversation between two persons and 4 options on how the conversation should continue. Your job is to choose the most reasonable option. The conversation and the options are separated by a newline character. Each dialogue in the conversation are separated by a comma. F and M indicate female and male, respectively.
PROBLEM: M: Doctor Wilson, can I talk to you for a minute? ,F: Sure, Fred. What is it? ,M: I'm worried about my grade in your English Class. I really want an A, but. ,F: I see. Well, it might be hard for you to get an A. So far, you have a B average. You would need a 97 or 98 on your final exam to get an A. Do you think you can get that higher score? ,M: Probably not. The problem is that I have to have a B average in all the subjects to get the prize from our government. Otherwise, I'll have to find a part time job. I'm afraid it is difficult for me to put all my heart in my study if I have to work in my spare time. I'll probably get an A in history and a B in maths, but I'll get a C in chemistry.
(A) F: I am really sorry, I did not catch that. Would you slow down, please? (B) F: Sounds great that you can get A in history and maths. Happy for you! (C) F: You must have put in a lot of effort to get A in maths and chemistry! (D) F: Don' t be sad! At least you can get an A in history. Everything will be alright!

SOLUTION: D

What kind of complaints? ,M: Well, your supervisor told me you're turning your reports in 2 to 3 days late. You're often absent from staff meetings and you haven't been getting along with your colleagues. ,F: Look, Mr. Travers, I can explain.
(A) M: I am afraid I did not quite catch what you were saying. Please repeat it. (B) M: The internal medicine department is on the second floor of the hospital. Now you can start explaining.

PROBLEM: F: Hi, you look excited. What happened? ,M: It's a lucky day for me. I not only got a chance to see the CBA, but get the ticket of Disneyland. And the most important thing to me is that a singing contest will be held in our school soon. I plan to take part in it. ,F: Great! You have a good voice. By the way, are they giving prizes? I remember last time you got a pocket radio in the English contest. ,M: It is said an ipad mini will be given as a reward to the first prize winner. ,F: So cool. I bet you can get the first prize. Good luck!
