PROBLEM: F: What do you think of your new life in college? ,M: Well, it is very nice. There are many clubs in the college, such as dancing clubs, painting clubs and football clubs. ,F: Have you joined any clubs? ,M: I have joined a chess club. You know, I am very fond of playing chess. ,F: Now, many college students do a part time job to earn some pocket money. What do you think of that? ,M: Well, it can really help us earn some money and gain some experience, but I am afraid it would take up too much study time.
(A) F: I think so. Part-time jobs only take up little study time, but the return is huge. (B) F: I agree. Part-time jobs are so time-consuming that nobody now ever thinks of that. (C) F: Just a minute! I do not quite follow what you are saying, would you mind repeating that? (D) F: You think part-time jobs can help one to study, while they take up little study time.

PROBLEM: F: And so the man with the dark mask rescued the princess from her kidnappers. After helping her off her white horse, the hero leaned over and kissed her. ,M: Wait! I don't want to hear about all that romantic stuff. Why do these stories always have to have kissing in them? Yuck, I hate that. Can't you skip over this part and get to the good stuff? ,F: Well, dear, I think that's enough reading for today. You look like you need some rest. Maybe you'd better go to sleep now. It's too bad, though, because we were just about to get to the exciting part.
(A) M: I am sorry. You spoke so rapidly that I did not catch the meaning of what you said. Could you repeat that? (B) M: Come on, mom. Finish the fighting story. (C) M: Don't skip the romantic part, mom! I want to hear it. (D) M: All right, darling. Kiss me good night.
