Read the below conversation. M: Hi, Kate. Have you any plans for the weekend? W: Yeah, I'm really excited, Jack. I'm going up to New York City for a couple of days. M: My roommate's going to New York, too. Are you driving? Maybe you two could ride together. W: No, I'm going to take a train to the Plain Station. I've already got my ticket. M: So what are you going to do in New York? W: I'm visiting a friend I met last summer at the music camp. I shared a camp with Laura and she's just moved to Manhattan. So I'm going up to see her new place. M: You two probably have a lot to talk about? Didn't you tell me you were from New York? W: No, I'm from California. I've never been to New York before. We are going to hear an opera at Lincoln Center on Saturday night. What would the listener say?

Answer: M: I didn't say he had lost it. All I said was if he didn't get out and start selling a few cars instead of idling around all day, he might find himself looking for a new job.

Read the below conversation. W: Michel, I heard your jazz band is going to play at the student center. I'm just calling to let you know I'll be there. M: Oh, thanks, but I am not in the band any more. In fact I'm not in the group at all right now. W: That's too bad. You're such an amateur musician. Why did you leave the group? M: I just couldn't be a full-time student and still practice with the band every night. I also missed a couple of performances during my midterm exams. And I thought I'd better quit before the band leader fired me. W: Hey, you know my friend Charlie, don't you? He plays the piano. He and some of his friends are getting a band together. And they need a good singer. M: I wouldn't have time for that either. What would the listener say?

Answer:
W: Oh, I don't think they'll practise very often. Charlie and his friends are all students, too. I'll give you his number and you can get in touch with him.
