M: Yes. In fact he was made chairman. But he only agreed to take the job if they let him have the final say. What was said before this conversation?
Ans: W: Was Robert elected to the committee?

M: Yes, nurse, I think so. I followed the hospital's advice, and I've only brought a few belongings with me. W: Good, you can see the reasons why we ask you to do that, the cupboard is really very small. M: Yes, of course. They are only afternoon from 2:30 to 4:30 and in the evening from 7:00 to 8:00, but remember that only two people can see you at the same time. M: I see. What other rules are there? W: Yes. We start pretty early. We wake you at 6 o'clock and breakfast is at 8 o'clock, lunch is at noon, there is tea at 3:30 and supper at 6 o'clock. M: Oh, that's very different from what I have been used to. You'd better tell me the rest of the rules here. W: Yes. Well, you can see the no smoking sign, we don't allow smoking in the wards, and the same goes for alcohol. However, if you do need to smoke, there are special lounges. M: Oh, I don't smoke, so it doesn't affect me. W: Good. What was said before this conversation?
Ans: W: So Mr. Brown, this is your bed, and as you can see, there are three other beds in the ward. Have you got everything you need?

W: It's noisy too, but the music is great! M: Yes, I like this record very much. Do you come here often? W: Now and again at weekends. How about you? M: This is the second time I've come here. My friend Jack told me that this was a good place to enjoy ourselves, and I came here with him. W: Then what is your opinion about it now? Are you having a good time? M: Of course I am. My name's Patrick by the way. What's your name? W: My name is Diane. What was said before this conversation?
Ans: M: It's so hot in here!

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?
Ans: W: Well, Mr Smith, we have had an interesting discussion about your work. Now, tell us something about your after-work activities.
