input question: W: Hi, David. Not so well as I expected. I've left my position. I can't bear the rudeness of my boss any longer. M: What are you going to do then? W: No idea. Anyway, I have to think about it seriously. And you, David? M: I've been very successful as a dancer. I like this kind of life. It is so exciting. W: You can't do it forever. M: No, but I've decided to open a dance school once I'm over the top. Our younger dancers need better training. W: That's a wonderful idea! What was said before this conversation????
output answer: M: Hi, Susan. Haven't seen you for ages. How are you getting along with your work?

input question: W: Professor Donner, are you giving your Advanced Geology course next semester? M: Yes, I'm planning on it. W: Could I be enrolled in it? I know it's a graduate course and I'm only a junior, but... M: Aren't you a bit young? I've allowed qualified seniors to take the course and they usually have a hard time keeping up. W: I know. But the geology of the American West is my favorite interest and I've done a lot of reading in the field. Last semester I took Professor Burman's course and I didn't find it really challenging enough. M: I see. You certainly aren't one of those students who are out for easy grades. W: I should say not. I really want to learn something. M: Well, I'll speak to Professor Burman. If he thinks you're ready, I'll let you enroll. W: Oh, thanks. That's really very kind of you.

output answer: M: Come in, please. What can I do for you?

input question: W: I mean, you could lose a few pounds, but I certainly don't think you look fat. Did he suggest anything to help you lose weight? M: He just said the usual stuff, like "eat less and exercise more". I guess I could cut out soda... W: Maybe you should cut out the sweets. M: I eat sweets when I'm stressed out, so that's going to be hard. I guess I should go to the gym tomorrow. I'm a member, but I never go. W: I thought we were going to that new restaurant tomorrow after work. We've been talking about it for weeks. M: Well, it's probably not healthy for me to be going out to eat, you know? The gym seems like a smarter choice. Come to think of it, maybe I'll go to the grocery store tonight and stock up on healthy options, too. What was said before this conversation????
output answer: M: I just went to the doctor, and he said that according to my BMI, which means Body Mass Index, I am officially overweight. Do I look fat to you?

input question: M: I guess not much different from everyone else. I'm interested in sport, and I run about 3 miles every day. I particularly enjoy cross-country running, where you have to run across fields, jump over streams and so on. While I'm running I think about all sorts of things, and at the end of a run I'm sometimes surprised to find that I've managed to solve a problem that was on my mind. Next year I'm going to try the London Marathon. It's a long, hard race - 26 miles, or 42 kilometres - and you have to be tough to finish, but I very much want to do it. I worry a bit about getting old and I'd like to prove to myself that I'm still almost as fit as I was twenty years ago. I'm interested in climbing as well as running. I'll never become an expert climber, but I know what I'm doing in the mountains. I successfully completed a course in snow and ice climbing when I was younger, and I've done a series of easy climbs in the Alps during the last few years. My wife doesn't share my interest in mountains. She agreed to go climbing with me once, but she found that she felt ill as soon as she got above 1000 metres, so we decide to follow different hobbies. W: You certainly seem to enjoy various types of recreation. All right, Mr Smith. Thanks for your interesting talk. What was said before this conversation????
