Problem: Given the question: W: Yes. M: Hello, I'm Doctor Johnson. What's the problem? W: I keep getting these headaches lately. And my nose usually gets stuffed up. M: Are you eating properly? W: Sure, I don't eat fast food. I eat three square meals a day. M: You might be coming down with the virus. W: To tell you the truth, this has been going on for over a month. My school grades are suffering because my mind is always on my health. M: Well, do you have pets? W: My roommate has a cat. M: Ah, it may be the cat. W: Come to think of it. She did get the cat about a month ago. M: All right, I'd like you to fill out this medical history form. I'm going to give you some tests. Have you ever had any? W: At least not what I can remember. M: We'll schedule you for the test right away. Then we'll be able to get to the bottom of this ting. W: But if it turns out to be the cat, I'll have a hard time persuading my roommate to get rid of it. She is crazy about that eat. M: Well, then you may have to get rid of both of them.

Problem: Given the question: M: Oh, thank you. Let's have a look at it now. Goodness, it's a lot more than I expected. W: Would you like me to explain anything, sir? M: Just a moment. Yes, what's this charge for $ 21.50 marked "J"? W: "J" is a charge for a long distance telephone call, sir. Did you make a telephone call that night? M: Yes. I remember now. Good heavens! We must have talked for a long time. And these ones, "L" for $ 32.40, and here's another, $ 9.50. What are they for? What was said before this conversation?

Problem: Given the question: W: It looks pretty good. Are you also majoring in Elementary Education? M: Yes. I can use this to fulfill the requirement for my course. W: Have you finished the first assignment yet? M: Not yet. I just bought the books today. How about you? W: I started this afternoon. It's great fun reading those wonderful children stories by Doctor Seuss. M: Doctor Seuss? I don't remember seeing his name on the reading list. W: His full name's Theodore Seuss Geisel. You can find this name on the reading list. Doctor Seuss is his pen name. M: I love reading those stories as a child. It'll be interesting to read them now from a different point of view. I guess they'll give me a good idea of how children think. W: Those stories are also great for classroom use. M: How's that? W: Well, take a typical Doctor Seuss's book like The Cat in the Hat. It has a controlled vocabulary of only two hundred words. M: So that means the children get lots of practices using a small number of words over and over again. W: Exactly. In fact The Cat in the Hat was written mainly to show how a controlled-vocabulary book could also be interesting and fun. M: Well, it sounds as though this course is also going to be interesting and fun. I think I'll get started on those readings tonight. What was said before this conversation?
