Problem: W: Well, there are too many problems. For example, when a film is popular, the cinema is rather crowded. M: Is that all? W: No, the worst is the people - children running up and down, people chatting endlessly, and so on. So, I'd rather stay home and wait to see the films when they are shown on TV. M: Then you may see the films a bit later than other people. W: Yes, but I'll be more comfortable in the quietness of my living room. M: Well, I prefer seeing films at the cinema as soon as they come out. What was said before this conversation?

A: M: Why you don't like going to the cinema?
Problem: Given the question: W: No problem! I bet this whole thing is pretty stressful M: Yeah! My parents are asking me all these stupid questions! W: Don't worry. You'll be free soon enough! M: Cool! So, how did you know what classes to take in the beginning? W: Well, I had no idea what I wanted to study when I first got here. I just kind of picked classes that sounded interesting. You can also choose classes based on when they are held so that your schedule flows nicely. M: What do you mean? W: Well, I'm taking four classes right now, but I only go to school three days a week, so I have four full days off. M: Are your classes hard? W: Well, there is a lot of information that you are responsible for, and you are expected to work independently. You also have to write a lot of papers for certain classes and participate in class discussions in others-each class is different. The trick is to figure out how to prepare for different kinds of courses. M: What about, uh, social life? W: I was waiting for that question! I'll tell you what. I'm gonna call up some of my friends, and we can all go out to lunch and talk about it. How does that sound? M: Awesome! What was said before this conversation?

input question: Woman: So, you can't come to get me? Man: No, uh, sorry. Woman: Uh, well, um, what does your brother look like? Man: Well, he's fairly tall, he has short light brown hair, and he's pretty thin. He's certainly not a body builder or pro wrestler. Woman: Okay. Um, what else? Man: Oh, and he usually wears a white baseball cap with crazy looking red shoes. I mean, you can't miss him. Woman: Alright. So, I'm looking for some tall crazy looking guy with wild red shoes who's ready to play baseball? Man: Exactly. Woman: And what's his name? Man: Well, uh, Mike, Michael. He goes by either one.

For dessert, I made apple pie. Man: Well ... under most circumstances ... Woman: Hon. What's? You ... I've never made a pie before. It took me like three hours. Man: Well, to be honest ... Woman: What's wrong? [ Man laughing. ] Don't you like my cooking? Man: No, no, no. Woman: I worked really hard!

Answer: Woman: Hi Sweetie. Welcome home. We're ready to eat.
Q: M: Oh, thank you. It's a photograph that I took on my vacation last year. W: You took it yourself? I didn't know you were a photographer. M: Oh, yes, I've been taking pictures for years. W: It sounds interesting. Do you have any more of your pictures here? And may I see them? M: Yes, certainly. Some of them are faces, just faces of people who I see when I'm walking around. W: Do you let them know that you're taking pictures of them? M: I try not to. I don't like pictures of people who purpose for the camera. I like people who are going about their business without knowing the camera is there. W: I suppose you need a lot of equipment. How many cameras do you have? M: Well, I have a dozen of them, but I use two of them more than the others. What was said before this conversation?
A: W: I like that picture you put up on the wall yesterday.
[Q]: M: I used to. But I haven't played it for quite some time. I don't really have time these days with all my studies. Why do you ask? W: I'm trying to organize a group to play at some parties on weekends. We still need a guitar player. M: Well, I don't know. But your idea sounds fun to me. W: Oh, it will be. I'm more or less in charge of things, so if you want to give it a try, you're in. It's as easy as that. Besides, it's a great chance to get out to meet people. M: But I told you I haven't practiced for a long time. I don't know if I remember any songs I used to play. W: Don't worry about it. I just thought I'd ask you to try and join us sometime when we were practicing. We'll be practicing for a few months before we give performances. M: OK, I'll have a try. W: I'm sure you can do it. And it will be fun, too. What was said before this conversation?
