TASK DEFINITION: In this task you are given a small conversation between two persons and 4 options on how the conversation should continue. Your job is to choose the most reasonable option. The conversation and the options are separated by a newline character. Each dialogue in the conversation are separated by a comma. F and M indicate female and male, respectively.
PROBLEM: M: I can't stand this heat. I can't get my attention to studying for the midterm exam. I guess I'll have to go to the library this afternoon. ,F: I don't blame you. This dormitory doesn't have air conditioning. I can't study, either. My roommate and I are thinking about moving out to the other dorm, or an apartment that has air conditioning. ,M: Oh, I thought about moving to. But if I want to live in an apartment, I have to pay a lot of money for electricity. Do you know an air conditioner is cheaper today than it was 10 years ago? On the other hand, electricity is a lot more expensive today. ,F: I didn't know that. How much do we have to pay for the electricity? 5 years ago, it was possible to run an air conditioner 24 hours a day for mere $20 a month. Today, the same air conditioner in the same house cost more than $40 a month.
(A) M: Excuse me, could you repeat the question? (B) M: That means $35 will cost to run an air conditioner 24 hours a day for 2 months 5 years ago. (C) M: Today, as five years ago, running an air conditioners 24 hours a day cost $20 for 2 months. (D) M: Electricity is cheaper today. 5 years ago, running an air conditioners 24 hours a day cost $40 for 2 months.

SOLUTION: A

PROBLEM: M: Would you consider buying a self-driving car? ,F: I don't know. I guess I'd have to research a bit more about them before making that decision. ,M: It will probably be a while before we are able to buy them anyway. We might be seeing self-driving trucks on the road pretty soon, though. Google wants to change the commercial trucking industry. Right now, there are over 3 million truck drivers in the US, so adding self-driving trucks would likely take away a lot of jobs. But many drivers might still be able to accompany their trucks and get a full night's sleep in the process. ,F: Truck drivers cause a lot of accidents on the freeway, so I think I'd like to see self-driving trucks. It would make me feel safer on the road. ,M: Really? I think it might make me feel less safe. A human driver is much more likely to react quickly to something unexpected.
(A) F: I am not agree with you, I don't think they are safer. (B) F: I am really sorry, I did not catch that. Would you slow down, please? (C) F: I am not excited by their speed because I think they are not safe at all. (D) F: Are you serious? I don't understand why you feel scared by them.

SOLUTION: D

PROBLEM: M: How is your physics going? ,F: It seems that the more of the teacher talks, the less I understand.
(A) M: It must be very difficult then. (B) M: Excuse me, could you repeat the question? (C) M: I'm not surprised that you don't find it difficult. You are so smart. (D) M: How can you find it easy and boring?
