Answer: M: Lily,do you have the time?
Problem: W: Yeah, I guess so. Why? M: I'm always forgetting things. Last week I went to the bank for some money, and I forgot to take it out of the machine. When I remembered and went back, the money was gone. Besides, I couldn't remember where I parked my car. W: That's pretty bad. M: Can you give me some advice on ways to improve my memory? W: Not really. You'd better just let me drive you to the bank next time. What was said before this conversation?

The answer is:
W: Hi, Frank. How are you?
input question: M: It's nothing serious actually. I was sick most of the night. I didn't sleep very well. W: What seems to be the matter? Is it the flu? M: No, I think it's something I ate. We ate at that new restaurant last night, and I must have eaten something that didn't agree with me. W: Was it that new restaurant over on Fourth Street? Opened only two weeks ago? M: As a matter of fact, it was. Why do you ask? W: Because Jerry ate there last week and had the same kind of problem. He was sick the next day, too. M: That's interesting. Maybe the health authorities should look into the matter. W: That's what I think. Two people with similar problems in such a short time can't just be coincidence!

output answer: W: You look rather pale, Mr. Williams. Aren't you feeling well?
W: I hope so. I want a lipstick. M: Do you have any particular brand in mind? W: I like Lyfel very much. M: We have different shades of Lyfel lipstick. May I know what color you usually wear? W: Pink. But today, I'm thinking of buying one in a dark shade. You know, I will be a teacher next month. I wish to look more serious. M: Yes, I see. How do you like this one? W: Not too bad. May I have a try? M: Certainly, Miss. W: Mmm... It's still too bright. Any darker shades? M: Not from the Lyfel group, I'm afraid. W: Well, any brand will do as long as I can get the right color. M: How about this one, then? It has more transparent touch. W: OK, that's the very thing I need. What was said before this conversation?
