PROBLEM: F: What time is it, Steven? ,M: Uh, it's 7:30. Aren't you going to finish your breakfast? ,F: I don't have much time. I've got a lot to do downtown today. ,M: If you're coming into the city, we may have lunch together.
(A) F: Well, we are living in the center of the city, so since today we are going to the countryside, I think it will take a long time to go there. (B) F: I'm sorry, I didn't understand. Could you repeat a little louder, please? (C) F: That's awesome, but you know we are living out of the city, so perhaps I'll be late for a few minutes fot the aerobics class. (D) F: That's great, but you know we are living out of the city, so perhaps I'll be late for a few minutes.

SOLUTION: D

PROBLEM: M: Doctor Wilson, can I talk to you for a minute? ,F: Sure, Fred. What is it? ,M: I'm worried about my grade in your English Class. I really want an A, but. ,F: I see. Well, it might be hard for you to get an A. So far, you have a B average. You would need a 97 or 98 on your final exam to get an A. Do you think you can get that higher score? ,M: Probably not. The problem is that I have to have a B average in all the subjects to get the prize from our government. Otherwise, I'll have to find a part time job. I'm afraid it is difficult for me to put all my heart in my study if I have to work in my spare time. I'll probably get an A in history and a B in maths, but I'll get a C in chemistry.
(A) F: I am really sorry, I did not catch that. Would you slow down, please? (B) F: Sounds great that you can get A in history and maths. Happy for you! (C) F: You must have put in a lot of effort to get A in maths and chemistry! (D) F: Don' t be sad! At least you can get an A in history. Everything will be alright!

SOLUTION: D

PROBLEM: M: You lived abroad right? ,F: Yeah, I've been to Australia and Canada. Last year I went to China and stayed there for 11 months. ,M: Why did you go to China? ,F: I'm studying business now and I want to work in tourism there in the future, so through my university I worked part time in a hotel in Shanghai. I worked at the hotel front desk and helped the hotel manager too. I was able to learn a lot of Chinese. ,M: Did you change in any way while you were there? ,F: Yeah, I became more independent. I couldn't turn to my family and my relatives. So I had to learn to do things for myself. I also had to learn to make my own decisions.
(A) M: You are so awesome to become the hotel manager in China. (B) M: Wow, you stayed in China for an entire year? That's amazing! (C) M: I am sorry. You spoke so rapidly that I did not catch the meaning of what you said. Could you repeat that? (D) M: You really learned a lot in China, didn't you?
