Answer: W: Excuse me, I didn't hear what you said.
Q: W: Sure, Dave. M: OK. So, we're leaving on Monday from Hartsfield International Airport, and returning on Friday. Do we take ourselves to the airport? Maybe we need to book a taxi, or just go by bus. W: No, we don't have to. The company car will pick us up and take us there. M: Oh, that's good. When? W: Our flight leaves at 11:00 a.m., so they should pick us up between 8:00 and 9:00 a.m. Besides, the company pays for our trip, including hotel and food. M: How much will that be? W: Well, New York is a pretty expensive city. So, each of us will get $200 a day. M: Oh, OK. Thanks for telling me that. W: You're welcome. What was said before this conversation?
A: M: Hey, Lucy. Do you have some time to talk about next week's trip with me?
Question: M: No, it feels a lot better today. I went to the doctor and he told me it was not serious, I should be fine for Saturday. W: Great! But why don't you take it easy today? Maybe just practice throwing. Don't do any running. M: OK. Do you have any news about Michigan and what we can expect in Saturday's game? W: Yes, I have some films, showing Michigan in the last three games. They are in my office, if you want to see them after practice, you can. M: Oh, that would be great. I'd like to see what we are up against. They are one of the top basketball teams in the country now since they beat Iowa last weekend. Come to think of it, why don't you go ahead and check out the game films right now? And just rest that knee this afternoon. I want you to be well in three days. W: Michigan has a strong team. We are in for a tough one. M: All right, I'll be back tomorrow for full practice. What was said before this conversation?

W: I'd love to, but I won't be off work from my factory until 4:00 p.m. How about 4:15? I'll be free then, Jack. M: OK. Let's meet at the bus stop and take the No.5 bus to go there. W: Why not by bike? The bus would be crowded at that time. M: But my bike is broken. W: You can use your sister's new bike, can't you? M: Yes. I'll wait for you in front of the bookstore opposite the cinema. What was said before this conversation?
