Please answer this: M: Yes, I'd like to read some articles that are on reserve about British culture. W: Professor Grand's class? M: That's right. How could you know? W: Let's just say you are not the first person coming in asking for those articles. M: Oh, well, seeing as how I haven't read any of them yet, it doesn't really matterwhich one you give me first. W: I'm afraid I can't give you any of them at the moment. They've all been checked out. M: You're joking, all of them? W: Every month. I've asked professor Grand twice already to bring in additional copies of the articles, but no sooner do I place them on the shelves than they are gone. See that girl in the black sweater? She's been waiting for half an hour for those same articles to be returned. M: And here's me. I went out of my way to free out the whole afternoon to read. W: I'm sorry, but there is not a whole lot I can do about it. All I can suggest is that you come in first thing tomorrow morning and try again. We open at eight.

Honestly, it's not that bad. Ron: Hey, I get enough of it from friends, and the people at work, and now from you! Heather: Well, maybe you could wear a toupee? I think you'd look great. Ron: Oh no. And have it slip off my head on to my date's dinner plate as I lean over to kiss her? Uh-uh. Heather: Well, have you ever thought about seeking medical advice? There are new advances in medicines that not only retard hair loss, but help regenerate new growth. Ron: Ah, I still don't give much credibility to medical treatment to prevent permanent hair loss. Heather: Well, what about accepting the fact that you're just losing your hair? Ron: I just can't give up hope. I know appearances shouldn't matter, but I don't know. I just feel that women just avoid me. Heather: Come on. You can't be serious. Ron: No really. I've seen it many times. It just, I don't know ... What was said before this conversation?

Problem: Given the question: W: Yes, I know this quite well. But still there are some children who can't go to school because of their poverty. M: Yes, it's a matter of money. You see, education here is not completely free for the students. If it were so it would cost the government too much money. W: Do all parents send their children to state schools? M: Yes, nearly all of them. If you are rich, you may prefer to send your children to private schools, but it takes a lot of money. What was said before this conversation?

M: No, we haven't any music homework, but the science teacher is giving us a test on Friday, so we have to study for that. W: Oh no. I'm so bad at science. I hate it. Thanks, Jack.
