PROBLEM: F: Uh, where do you think you're going? ,M: We're going to the new club, right? Oh, Man. I can't wait to get out on the dance floor and... ,F: Ha! You're not seriously going out like that, are you? ,M: Hey, you're just messing around with me, aren't you? Yeah, I know I look good. Just let me get my jacket. ,F: Jason, you look ridiculous. Your jeans are too tight, and they look like they were washed too many times, back in the 80s. And why are you wearing that funny hat? ,M: What? You've never heard of the New York Yankees? ,F: I'm a huge baseball fan. I know who the Yankees are, but why are you wearing that hat backwards? What are you 10 years old? And that jacket looks like a dead animal.
(A) M: I am afraid I did not quite catch what you were saying. Please repeat it. (B) M: I know you are crazy about baseball, but let's go to my parent's home first, OK? (C) M: Yes, I am crazy about baseball, too. Next time let's watch a baseball game together. (D) M: You are really crazy about fancy clothing brands. How about the Clippers hat I am wearing?

PROBLEM: M: OK, Let me just have a look at the information here. You've been with a company for 6 years. ,F: That's right. ,M: Do you feel the same way as you did 6 years ago? ,F: Well, not really. I used to be more enthusiastic. Maybe it's because I'm older now. ,M: Well. You're only 28. That's not exactly old. What else has changed? ,F: I work longer hours now. I go home after 7 nearly every day, but I earn much more than before.
(A) M: It is good to know you can earn more money. So how much is your salary now? (B) M: I’m sorry, I don’t understand. Could you say it again?
