instruction:
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.

question:
M: Diana, can you give me a hand? I'm supposed to place all these new products in the display case, but they'll never fit. ,F: Yeah, I see what you mean. But did Miss Harper mean to put them all on display, or just one of each as a sample for the customers to see? ,M: Oh, I get it! So maybe I should just select a single example of each model instead of one of each color for each model. ,F: Check with Miss Harper first. But in my opinion, that's the only way you'll be able to do it.
(A) M: I manage to put them all in the case, but I can't find Ms.Harper to check. (B) M: It's all because of the limited space. Daisy, throw away these products. (C) M: Well, it's all because there isn't enough room for all the new products. (D) M: I’m sorry, I didn’t catch that. Would you mind speaking more slowly?
answer:
C


question:
M: Do you think people's moods are affected by the climate they live in? ,F: Well, I think there's certainly something in it. Because when the weather is hot, I easily lose my temper, but when it's cooler I feel much calmer. And if it's raining, I always feel sad.
(A) M: Why do you feel angry when it's hot? (B) M: Excuse me, could you repeat the question? (C) M: Why do you feel sad when it's hot? (D) M: Why don't you feel angry but sad when it's hot?
answer:
A


question:
F: Well, you must be happy, Nathan you're almost ready to go to Chicago for your practice. We're sure going to miss you around here. ,M: I'll miss you too, mom. But yeah, I'm excited about my summer. And don't be too sad. I'll be back in a few months, in time for the first day of school. By winter break, you'll hardly remember I was even gone. ,F: So how do you think you'll do in the big city? Are you worried about working for a big newspaper like the Chicago Tribune? ,M: Not really. I'm not afraid of hard work and I know how to organize my day. I think I'll do a good job. ,F: But doing for practice isn't just for the company to profit, is it? It's also for you to get experience. Do you even know what you'll be doing? ,M: I'm not worried about that. I've got a lot of natural curiosity. And I'm very social, I'm sure I'll learn from all the other people there. ,F: What if they stick you in some backroom by yourself just copying papers or taking out the trash? ,M: I don't think that will happen. They asked for someone who was good at editing, organizing computer files and keeping track of deadlines. And I already know who I'll be working with, one of their regular writers.
(A) F: It's boring that your only job is copying papers. Are you sure you are going there? (B) F: You'll be working alone and organize all the files. That's hard, isn't it, darling? (C) F: I’m sorry, I didn’t understand. Could you repeat a little louder, please? (D) F: If your main work is keeping the trash cleared up as you said, it's meaningless, dad.
