Q: W: Arm exercises? Is that because arms are too fat or too soft? M: Actually that's not the main reason. They say that arm exercises can make you physically healthy. W: But I was told that arm exercises could raise your blood pressure. M: Yes, but the article I read suggests some ways to make up for that. W: Really? How? M: By adding leg exercises, so that the arms don't do all the work. W: And in return, I'm sure that there's a good chance of losing weight. M: Sounds right to me. W: So what exercises do the experts suggest? M: They mentioned quite a few exercises, but one of the most popular ones is cycling. W: Good, I must try that. What was said before this conversation?

input: Please answer the following: M: I'd be glad to tell you what I think. W: If you don't think it's any good, please say so. I really want to get this job. M: It looks fine to me. But I have one suggestion. W: What is it? M: If I were you, I'd change the beginning. You should write about your education first. W: Good idea, Jack. What do you think about the second part? M: Well, I'm afraid it's too short. You should include much more information about your work experience. W: You're right. I'll change it. What was said before this conversation?

Please answer this: Alex: By saving water. Interviewer: Well, how can we do that? Alex: By not using too much water when we wash dishes, take a bath, and when we do other things, like watering the plants outside. Interviewer: Oh, I think I can do that. What else? Alex: When drinking or eating something outside, you should keep the garbage until you find a trashcan to put it in because littering makes our planet dirty. Do you like seeing trash all over the ground? Interviewer: No, I don't. Do you have any final suggestions? Alex: Yes. We shouldn't waste paper because trees are being cut down to make the paper. By recycling paper, we save the forests where animals live. Interviewer: So, how can children recycle paper, I mean, everyday? Alex: Well, for example, when I was in kindergarten, I used to save the newspapers so that I could make things make out of them, like paper trees, instead of just throwing them away. Now, the children in our neighborhood collect newspapers once a month to take them to a recycling center. Interviewer: That's great. Well thanks Alex for your ideas.
