input question: W: Oh, really? And are you going? M: I don't know. I used to hate school, so I don't feel like going back. W: But it's different now. M: Yes, I know. But it's still a difficult situation. You see, when I was at school I used to be bad at studies and none of the teachers liked me. W: Well; I think you should go. When I was younger, I used to dream about meeting a famous pop star. You can't let them down. M: Maybe you are right. OK, I'll go. What was said before this conversation????

Answer: W: Jack said he can give us a fide to the game.
Q: W: Well, I haven't decided yet. What are you going to order? M: I think I'll have the roast chicken. They really make it well here. W: I had roast chicken yesterday when I ate out with Shelly. M: Their beef steak is good, too. You can have it served with beans and mushrooms. W: But I'm not that hungry. Is the fried fish or the seafood salad good? M: Never had them before. Maybe if you get the steak, we could share. W: That sounds like a good idea. What was said before this conversation?
A: M: I've been here many times. There are quite a lot of delicious dishes to choose from. What are you thinking of ordering?
Question: W: Hi. M: You look great! Have you been on vacation? W: Yeah, I have. I was on the West Coast. M: Nice! How was it? W: Great. I had a wonderful time. It was really nice to get away from work. M: Where did you go? W: Los Angeles and San Francisco. M: How did you like Los Angeles? W: Well, it is cleaner than I thought it would be, and there are a lot of trees, so I like it better than I thought I would. But it's huge! It's really hard to get around. The bus service is terrible, and you know, I don't like taking the underground. We had to rent a car. M: And was the weather good? W: Oh, yes, it was nice and warm in Los Angeles. M: What about San Francisco? W: The weather? It was cooler than LA, but it wasn't uncomfortable. M: Cool in San Francisco? That's surprising. W: Yeah, it surprised me a bit, too. And it was a problem because we didn't take any sweaters or anything like that, but it's always like that in August. Anyway, I loved it. It's probably the most beautiful city in the US-all those hills, the bay, and those magical old Victorian houses. M: So, you like it better than Los Angeles? W: Absolutely! And there's much more that you can see and do on foot! It's smaller than Los Angeles, so it's much easier to get around. There are lots of buses and streetcars, and of course, minibuses, too.

[A]: W: The map shows that this street goes downtown.
Problem: Given the question: M: Yes, Miss. Bums Park is about half a mile from here. Do you want to take a bus or walk? The bus stop is on the other side of the street if you want to take a bus. W: Well, I'd like to walk if it's within walking distance. M: All right. We are now on Main Street. Go this way along, until you come to First Street. W: I see. M: Go straight along Main Street as far as First Street. Turn left onto First Street and walk another two blocks. Then you'll come to Lincoln Street? W: Lincoln Street. M: Yes, then turn right. Walk for a few minutes. Bums park begins at the comer of Lincoln and Fifth. W: Thank you very much, officer. M: You're welcome. Good-bye. What was said before this conversation?
