input question: Read the below conversation. W: Excuse me, are you going to buy that book? M: Well, I need it for a class but it's awfully expensive. W: Oh, we must be in the same class. Introduction to British Literature? M: Yes, that's the one. Were you there yesterday for the first class? W: I sure was. Professor Robert really seems to know his subject. M: Yes, I took his Shakespeare course last semester and it was very good. He likes listening to his students. W: That's a relief. I'm a biology major and I was a little uncertain about taking an English course. M: I'm an English major and this is a required course. But now I'm in trouble because I'm not sure I can afford this book. W: Hey, I've got an idea. Why don't we split the cost and share the book? M: Sounds great. Do you live on campus? W: Yeah, I live on the 10th floor of Butler Hall. M: Perfect. I live on the 3rd floor of Butler. We should have no trouble sharing the book. I can bring it up to your room right after I wrap up the assignment. What would the listener say????
output answer: W: It's a deal.

input question: Read the below conversation. M: I think we'd better go over my schedule, Irene. I'm going to have a look at our European operation, as you know, and as I'll be visiting a number of countries, I'd like you to make the bookings. W: Right, Mr Buck. I'll take down the details. M: Well, I'm leaving on Tuesday, April 15th, for London. I'm going to attend a sales conference for our British representatives. That runs through Wednesday and Thursday, and then there's a reception at Canada House on Thursday evening. W: Are you going to meet the Ambassador, then? M: I guess so. But the main thing is that on Friday morning, I have a meeting with the British Minister of Trade and Industry. We're going to discuss the site of our new plant in Scotland. W: So when are you leaving for Paris? M: First flight on Saturday morning. I'm planning to meet my wife there. She's going to fly over direct, arriving in the afternoon. Then we'll have a relaxed weekend before I see Mr Chambery, the European Manager, on Monday. So from Paris on, I'll need a double room. W: How long are you going to stay in Paris, Mr Buck? M: Only till Monday evening. I'm going to Rome to see our plant there on Tuesday, and on Wednesday I'm due in Madrid to inspect the new factory. W: And that's the last item on the agenda. So when are you coming back? Are you going to fly from Madrid? What would the listener say????
output answer: M: Yes, on the first plane out on Thursday. We must be back on Friday, the 25th. It's my daughter Sharon's birthday.

input question: Read the below conversation. W: Good morning, everybody. Today, for our writing class, we are glad to have Mr. Henry Stone with us, a well-known writer in this country. He is going to share with us his writing experiences. Now, Henry, please tell us how you find so many interesting things for your stories. What would the listener say????
output answer: M: OK. I watch people a lot. I do that when I travel. I've been to many countries such as Britain, Italy and Sweden. So I spend a lot of time at airports. While waiting for my flights, I watch people passing by and start my imagination. For example, the other day, when I was waiting for my flight to Greece, I saw a couple. They were buying magazines at that moment. They were not wearing business clothes, but the man was carrying a suitcase. Every few seconds, the woman looked around. I wondered if someone was following them. Perhaps they were running away, and you know, this reminded me of a story in the newspaper that day: a bank clerk stole one million pounds a week before and disappeared with his wife. There was a picture of them in the paper. The couple really looked like the wiz. Maybe I should stop them. Just then, I saw them say goodbye to each other, and the woman walked away. Well, sometimes I make mistakes like that. But I find things like that are very useful for my writing.

input question: Read the below conversation. M: Welcome. Last month big leap in new job, some 300, 000 plus, is a huge increase over what the country has seen in the past 6 months when the average growth has been just 75, 000 new jobs a month. For a closer look at what's happening, we turn to Lisa Lynch, an economics professor at Tofts University. Lisa Lynch, when you look at these numbers, do you think job creation is on the rise? W: It certainly is. It was a great report. It indicates that the job market, broadly speaking, has turned the corner after 3 very long, lean years. I think we are going to see improvement. It's not only the March gain. It was gain in January and February. They were both revised higher, and moreover, the job gains were very broadly-based across many industries. It was a very positive report. M: What do you see in the numbers? Who's getting the new jobs? What would the listener say????
output answer:
W: As I mentioned, when we looked at the numbers, "we are seeing employment across the board in all sectors, with one important exception, and that's in manufacturing. Well, we do not have any job loss in manufacturing sector for the first time in 44 months. We did not see pick up in the manufacturing sector, but we saw restaurant and hotel workers being added on. We saw workers in supermarket being added on. Part of that reflects the settlement of the grocery stores strike out California. We saw workers in the health care sector and hospitals being added on. We saw business services adding employees. So in general, with the very important exception of manufacturing, we are seeing job growth across all of these different types of occupations.
