Please answer this: Man: Hi, Maggie. Good, thanks. What's new with you? Woman: Oh, I was just wondering if you want to go out tonight. Man: Well, I was thinking of going to the university library to do a bit of study. What've you got on mind? Woman: I thought we just go for a walk? Maybe down the park near the beach. Man: Tonight? You must be joking! It's too cold. Woman: Oh, yes. It's too cold. But I still want to go out somewhere. That New Town Cruel Sail is on in the town. How about that? Man: OK. What time does it start? Woman: Oh, I think it's half past eight, something. I'll get a paper and have a look. Just turn on for a minute. Look, the film (have) got a fantastic review last week. Man: OK. OK. Where are we going to meet? Woman: It'd be easier if we meet at the cinema. Man: OK. Where is it? Woman: Oh, you know, the Oyiyang. Man: Where is that? Woman: Near the town hall at the opposite of the Bank. Man: Oh, yes. I know where it is. OK. Look, I'll meet you there at fifteen past eight. What was said before this conversation?

Answer: Woman: Hi, Steve, how are things?
Problem: Driver: Where to? Passenger: Well, I'm going to the National Museum of Art, and .... Driver: Sure. Hop in. No problem. Hang on! Passenger: Uh. Excuse me. How long does it take to get there? Driver: Well, that all depends on the traffic, but it shouldn't take more than twenty minutes for the average driver. [Oh]. And I'm not average. I have driving down to an art, so we should be able to cruise through traffic and get there in less than fifteen minutes. Passenger: Okay. Uh, sorry for asking [Yeah?], but do you have any idea how much the fare will be? Driver: Oh, it shouldn't be more than 18 dollars ... not including a ... uh-hum ... a tip of course. Passenger: Oh, and by the way, do you know what time the museum closes? Driver: Well, I would guess around 6:00 O'clock. Passenger: Uh, do you have the time? Driver: Yeah. It's half past four. [Thanks] Uh, this IS your first time to the city, right? Passenger: Yeah. How did you know? Driver: Well, you can tell tourists from a mile away in this city because they walk down the street looking straight up at the skyscrapers. Passenger: Was it that obvious? Driver: Well ... Passenger: Oh, before I forget, can you recommend any good restaurants downtown that offer meals at a reasonable price? Driver: Umm ... Well, the Mexican restaurant, La Fajita, is fantastic. [Oh] It's not as inexpensive as other places I know, but the decor is very authentic, [Okay] and the portions are larger than most places I've been to. Passenger: Sounds great! How do I get there from the museum? Driver: Well, you can catch the subway right outside the museum. There are buses that run that way, but you would have to transfer a couple of times. And there are taxis too, but they don't run by the museum that often. Passenger: Okay. Thanks. What was said before this conversation?

A: Passenger: Hey Taxi! Ah great. Thanks for pulling over.

W: Why did the women have this treatment? M: I don't know. The book says they used to consider it an honor to be the wife of the chief. The women used to become so fat that they could not walk. They used to crawl on their hands and knees instead. W: How terrible! I'm sure they wouldn't live for many years. Those women used to suffer a lot because of that custom. I'm glad that they don't do it now. What was said before this conversation?
