Problem: M: I don't know. He's pretty busy. What was said before this conversation?

A: W: Do you think he could help me change the water in the fish tank this week?
Problem: Given the question: M: No, I don't. In fact, I was about to ask you if you could arrange some place for me to stay. W: Yes, that's no problem though I am not in charge of it. I'll ask someone to arrange it for you. What kind of place were you considering? M: Well, I don't care if I share with other people, but I'm not good at housework. Maybe a home stay would be OK, but I don't like young children, because they're noisy and it's difficult to study. Hopefully, I can live with a lady who has retired. W: OK, that's no problem. But I must warn you that living with a family in London is very expensive. Much more expensive than other small cities. M: That's not a big problem. I have some money saved. Besides, I can always get a part-time job. I'm working in a supermarket as a cashier now. So I don't think I will have trouble with money. W: Sounds good. I'll call you if I get some information about that. M: OK, that's great. Thank you very much. W: You are welcome. What was said before this conversation?

W: Do you have somewhere to stay in London, Peter?
input question: M: Well. I left school after I'd done my A-levels. W: What subjects did you take? M: French. German and Art. W: Art? M: Well. I really wanted to study Art. But a friend of my father's provided with me a job-he's an accountant in the city. W: I see. In your application, you say that you only spent nine months with this firm of accountants. Why was that? M: Well, honestly, I didn't like it, so I got a place at the Art College a year ago. W: Did your father mind? M: Well, he was rather disappointed at first. He's an accountant too, you see. W: Have you any brothers or sisters? M: Two brothers, both at school. One's eleven; the other's fifteen. W: Right. What do you do in your spare time? M: I like jazz and folk music; I go to the theater occasionally and act a bit myself. I read quite a lot, and I've done a bit of photography. Also, I've traveled a lot -all over Europe. W: Very interesting, Mr. Brown. I think that's all I want to ask about your background. What was said before this conversation????
