[A]: M: Linda is supposed to be here at the meeting tonight. Where is she?
input: Please answer the following: W: Do you want to stay in this country, or would you prefer to go abroad? M: I think I'd like to visit a foreign country. I'm not interested in Africa, but any place else would be fine. W: Well, that leaves the Orient, the Middle East, South America, and Europe. Oh, and I almost forgot Australia. Are you interested in seeing anything in particular? Historical monuments? Museums? Or people? M: Monuments might be interesting, but museums are too stuffy. I think I'd like to see a little night life, too. If I'm going to spend lots of money on a trip, I don't want to be bored. W: It sounds as if you would do well to go to Europe - possibly to France, Spain or Italy. There are excellent hotels, so many interesting sights to see, plenty of night clubs. M: Say, how about "Gay Paree" in Paris? I could spend my whole vacation there and really have a good time, couldn't I? They say the night spots are really terrific! W: Well, you'd certainly have plenty of time to find out. And during the day you could do a little sightseeing. What was said before this conversation?

Answer: M: How is the weather today?
Problem: M: So exciting, then when do we set off? W: The plane leaves tomorrow afternoon. So we set off for the airport at 11 am. M: So we leave at 11 am. Do we stop off anywhere on the way or is it a direct flight? W: Well, there aren't any direct flights, we can stop off in Hong Kong. So we can stop and spend two days there on our way to Singapore. M: Great. I always wanna go there. When do we get back? W: We'll return home in 10 days' time. M: Wow, wonderful, I just can't wait. What was said before this conversation?

A: W: Meg, I've just got us tickets to Singapore.
Problem: Given the question: M: No problem, Marge. I need to work on my swing. And this weather is just amazing. W: I only play on days like this-sunny but cool with a soft breeze. M: How long has it been since you last played? W: Too long-almost six months. I used to play at least once a month, though. M: Oh, really? I try to play at least once every other week. W: Well, then you can help me with my game. M: No problem. What was said before this conversation?

The answer is:
W: Thanks for coming golfing with me today, Carl.
Problem: W: Fine, thank you. A hit too busy though. You know, I'm trying to put everything in order in my new flat. M: Oh, I see. Well, I am wondering if you'd like to go to a concert tomorrow night. I think it will be good. And if I remember correctly, you did say you liked country music. W: Yes. That's fight. It's nice of you to ask, Bob. But I don't think I can. Mother has already asked me to see a friend and then we'll go to the theatre together. In fact she's getting the tickets this evening. M: Oh, well, never mind. What about next weekend? This concert is still on then, I think, if you are free next Saturday. W: Oh, I'd like to very much. But what time exactly? M: It starts at 7:30, I think. W: Oh, good. That'll be fine. The tennis match will be over by 5 o'clock, I'm sure. M: Good, I'll call you again when I get the tickets. W: Sure. Bye. What was said before this conversation?
