But I'd like a cold one if you've got one. W: Sure thing, sweetie. That'll be $6.25. M: Say, you're kinda friendly, aren't you? W: I suppose it comes with the job. It pays to be nice to people, don't you think? M: I suppose it does. That's what my mother said to me anyway. Oh, wait. Wait a second. Oh, no. I can't believe this! W: What's wrong? M: I think I left my wallet somewhere. W: It's gotta be around here. Maybe on the floor? M: No. It's not there. I don't know where it could be.

Read the following conversation and answer the question. W: Can I help you? M: Yes, my son and daughter bought this pen here for my wife's birthday, but it doesn't work, so I'd like to exchange it. W: Let me see. Was it dropped or anything? M: No, but you can see that the point is bent a little bit. W: Yes, it is, isn't it? We'd be happy to exchange it for you. But I'm afraid we don't have another purple one. We only have this pen in black and yellow now. M: My wife doesn't care for either of those colors. W: We have one with a red leather cover. That's three dollars more. M: The children worked hard to save up the eleven dollars for this one. They would probably be upset if I paid for part of their present. W: If you want, we can order another pen just like this one. M: That sounds like a good idea. Would you please go ahead and do that? W: We'd be very happy to. It will take a week or ten days.

Ques:Read the following conversation and answer the question. W: With us now, is Malcolm Bricklin, CEO of Visionary Vehicles. M: Hello, everyone. W: We have been hearing a couple of things about this news that Ford Motor Company is slashing up to 30,000 jobs, shutting down 14 plants nationwide. Is it a big deal if we are no longer manufacturing these cars, Malcolm? M: I think it's a huge deal. I mean the companies are massive employers both directly and indirectly. If you look at Ford after their restructuring, they've actually got 87,000 employees which is twice as many as Microsoft have worldwide. Moreover, if you look at those jobs, they are very high-paying jobs. These are people who can afford to buy their own products. W: Er, it seems to indicate a big hit for our economy if these jobs go bye-bye. M: Yeah, it's a really sad day for America. W: But it is not as if cars are stopped being made, right? M: Correct. Still a large number of cars are being made by American manufacturers. More than half of the American cars sold in America are American. So what has happened over time is that as the market share has fallen, foreign car companies have come in, taken over plants and set up new plants, and they have taken over that capacity. So, it is not like there are fewer cars being produced in America than there were 30 years ago. W: Let me ask you about the Chinese coming in. What would it mean to American jobs, if and when that happens? M: The Chinese cars we have seen so far aren't that great and they don't have the branding necessary to make a huge impact in the world stage. Question: What does the man think of Chinese car manufacturing? - It is a serious threat to its competitors. - It is not powerful enough to affect the world market. - The cars' quality is good enough to have their own branding.

Ans:It is not powerful enough to affect the world market.

Read the following conversation and answer the question. M: Excuse me, are you waiting to buy the concert tickets? W: Yes, I am. So are all these people in front of me. M: How long have you been here? W: About 50 minutes. I've hardly moved forward in that time. M: Are you kidding? W: Not at all. There was a couple up ahead of me who got so fed up that they finally gave up and left. They said they'd been here for more than an hour. M: My God. Does anyone know what's causing the delay? W: It could be that there aren't enough people selling tickets this afternoon. Or maybe their computers break down. M: I just hope they don't run out of tickets when I get up there. W: That really would be annoying, wouldn't it? M: I guess I should have come before lunch. Or has it been like this all day? W: Actually it has. In fact, before I came, I tried calling to order my tickets over the phone, just to avoid this long wait, but they don't take phone orders, or checks, or credit cards. It's cash or nothing. And you have to come in person. M: Well, there are two more hours before the ticket office closes. Tickets to a good concert are worth waiting for. So I think i'll just make myself comfortable. Question: What's the man's attitude towards what's happening? - He's unwilling to wait in line. - He's satisfied with the purchase. - It's worthwhile to queue for tickets.
It's worthwhile to queue for tickets.
