[Q]: M: I have nothing tonight. Anything I can do for you? W: How about going to the movies? It will do you good to get your mind off your work for a while. M: That sounds like a good idea. But what is playing? W: I've looked up the entertainment section in the newspaper. There are some new films on in town. M: Is there anything interesting on? W: There is also a new Beijing Opera put on for the first time. I wonder if you are interested. M: Why not, of course. W: I do not think we have time to go back to the hotel if we want to watch the opera. Let's get something in a nearby restaurant. M: OK. What was said before this conversation?

[Q]: Woman: So, you can't come to get me? Man: No, uh, sorry. Woman: Uh, well, um, what does your brother look like? Man: Well, he's fairly tall, he has short light brown hair, and he's pretty thin. He's certainly not a body builder or pro wrestler. Woman: Okay. Um, what else? Man: Oh, and he usually wears a white baseball cap with crazy looking red shoes. I mean, you can't miss him. Woman: Alright. So, I'm looking for some tall crazy looking guy with wild red shoes who's ready to play baseball? Man: Exactly. Woman: And what's his name? Man: Well, uh, Mike, Michael. He goes by either one. Woman: Alright. Man: Alright. Bye. Woman: (I) Hope he shows up? Man: Okay, now, I'll call him. Woman: Alright, bye. Man: Bye. What was said before this conversation?
