TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you will be shown a conversation and a question. You need to write an implausible answer to the question. Even though there exist multiple wrong answers, we only need a single wrong answer. "W" and "M" in the conversations stand for "woman" and "man".
PROBLEM: M: How can I help you, Miss? W: Could you break a 20-dollar bill for me? M: Sure. How do you want it? W: Could I have two 5's and the rest in 1's? M: Well, I have some 5's, but I don't have enough 1's. Are quarters fine with you? W: Oh, that's even better! In that case, I won't have to worry about the small change for the bus later. M: Here you go! W: Thanks a million!, Question: What is the woman doing?

SOLUTION: Asking for some money in the street.

PROBLEM: W: Hello, Ultimate Computers. May I help you? M: Yes, this is Jack Kordell from Hunter's Office Supplies. May I speak to Elaine Strong, please? W: I'm sorry, but she's not in right now. She should be here later in the afternoon, maybe about 4:30. May I take a message? M: Yes. Ms. Strong sent me your newest line of laptop computers with a description of other software products, but there wasn't any information about after sales service. W: Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like me to fax that to you? M: Yes. Could you try sending that information around 3:30? That should give me time to look over the material before I call Ms. Strong, say, around 5:00. W: Sure. Could I have your name, telephone number, and fax number, please? M: Yes. Jack Kordell and the phone number is 560 1287. And the fax number is 560 1288. W: All right. I'll be sure to send you the fax this afternoon. M: Okay, bye., Question: When will the man probably talk with Elaine Strong on the phone?

SOLUTION: About 3:30.

PROBLEM: W: Mr. Block, I need to take a few days off because my parents are coming over to visit. M: But it's not really a good idea to take time off right now, you know. W: Well, I know. But they've never been to the UK before and they don't speak English. M: Hmm, you know there are thousands of tourists in London who can't speak English and they manage to get around. W: Yes, I know but they really expect me to be there. It's culture. Chinese parents expect their children to do things like this. M: I know, but truly if they care about your education, they'll understand. W: Well, do you think I could take maybe just two days off? M: Ok, two days but you must catch up with all of the work and get all of the materials., Question: What can be inferred about the man?

SOLUTION:
He knows a lot about Chinese culture.
