Please answer this: M: It's nice to sit down. We've been walking for hours. W: Did you like the White House? M: Oh, yes. I thought it was beautiful. I wanted to stay longer. W: I did, too. But we've got a lot of things to see. M: The line wasn't long this morning, was it? W: No, it wasn't. We were lucky. M: I wonder if the president and his family use the rooms we saw. They look more like a museum than somebody's house. W: Yes. They are the public rooms. The President's family lives upstairs. M: What do they use the public rooms for? W: For important affairs. The President usually entertains members of the government and visitors from other countries. M: I hope I could get a reception at the White House some time. W: Well, if you do something important when you grow up, maybe you will. Who knows? What was said before this conversation?

Please answer this: M: When is Thanksgiving Day? W: It's celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November. What are your plans for it? M: I have no idea yet. What about you? W: The same as usual. My aunts and uncles and cousins come to our house for dinner. M: Oh, your family get together. What do you usually do? W: We usually have a big meal. My mother cooks turkey. But I prepare the vegetables. My aunts usually bring the pies. The women cook the meal, and the men wash the dishes. M: Really? In my family, when we get together the kids wash the dishes. The whole thing is a lot of work. W: Yes, but I like Thanksgiving. I was out of the country last year, and really missed it. That's one time in the year when families get together. John, if you haven't got any plans, why don't you come to my house to spend the holiday with us? M: Yes, that sounds like a good idea. Thanks a lot. What was said before this conversation?
