Problem: Read the below conversation. M: OK, just sign your name right here on this line, and you'll officially own your house! W: Excellent! I can't believe I just bought a house! When can I move in? M: The previous owners need to clean the house this weekend, but you can move in on Monday morning. Do you have the keys? W: No, I don't have the keys. Can I pick them up from your office tomorrow? M: My office isn't open on Fridays, but I can bring them to you this weekend. Do you have all the copies of these important papers? W: Yes. I have a question. Do you sell houses in Springfield, too? My friend wants to sell his house and I'd love to recommend you. What would the listener say?

A: M: Yes, I do. Thanks for the recommendation!

Problem: Read the below conversation. W: Why weren't you at the German class last night, Tom? Have you given up? M: Well, no...I came back late yesterday and found John sleeping in the chair. He'd been writing a report all day long and he was too tired to go out again, so we gave the lesson a miss. W: You've missed quite a lot of lessons lately, haven't you? Are you losing interest? M: Yes, I'm afraid so. Neither John nor I have a gift for language. People just laugh at us when we attempt to speak German. How did you and Jane pick it up so quickly and easily? You've hardly been in Germany a month. W: It was neither quick nor easy. We'd both studied the language before we came, and we only needed to revise it. What would the listener say?

A: M: Anyway, all our friends here speak English very well, so we don't really need to learn German.

Problem: Read the below conversation. Bill: Hey, this is Bill. I'm sorry I'm not in. Just leave a message. [Beep] What would the listener say?

A: Hank: Hey Bill. This is Hank. I'm just calling to let you know that I'll be a little late to the game tomorrow night. I have to work a few extra hours to finish a report. I should wrap things up sometime between seven and eight though. Oh, then I'm planning on dropping by Lisa's house for about an hour since she's been sick recently. And, uh, one more thing. I'll swing by my house to pick up some food for the game. See you then.

Problem: Read the below conversation. M: I won't be back till midnight. Will it be possible to get something to eat in my room? What would the listener say?

A:
W: Just phone Room Service and tell them what you'd like.
