Please answer this: Read the below conversation. Lisa: Hi, Tim. So, are you doing some last-minute shopping before the weekend? Tim: Well, actually, I'm looking for supplies to put together 72-hour kits for each member of my family. Lisa: [A] 72-hour kit? What's that? Tim: Basically, a 72-hour kit contains emergency supplies you would need to sustain yourself for three days in case of an emergency, like an earthquake. Lisa: An earthquake?! We haven't had an earthquake in years. Tim: Well, you never know; you have to be prepared. Hey, if earthquakes don't get you, it could be a flood, hurricane, snowstorm, power outage, fire, alien attack. [Alien attack!] Well, you never know. Think of any situation in which you might find yourself without the basic necessities of life, including shelter, food, and water, for over a period of time. Lisa: Hum. So, what do you keep in a 42-hour, um, ... I mean 72-kit? Tim: Well, you should have enough food and water to last you three days, and you might want to pack a basic water filter or water purification tablets in case your only water source turns out to be a murky pool of bug-infested water. [Ugh!] Hey, sometimes you don't have a choice, and as for food, you should keep it simple: food that requires no preparation and that doesn't spoil. And no canned goods because they are often too heavy and bulky. [Okay, that makes sense.] And unless you have a can opener or the can has a pull-tab lid, you'll have to use a rock or something to open them. [Ah, instant mashed green beens.] Yeah, and oh, energy bars, beef jerky, and a mix of nuts, raisins, and chocolate are possibilities. Lisa: Huh, the food might be nasty, but I guess you could survive ... barely. Tim: Well, the food doesn't have to taste bad; just select things that are easy to prepare, and you might want to include some basic comfort foods like a couple of candy bars. Then, you have to decide on the type of shelter you might need. Lisa: A hotel sounds nice. Tim: Yeah, but that's really not an option. The reality is that you might have to evacuate to a...

Answer: Tim: Yeah, but most people thinking about it after it is too late.

Please answer this: Read the below conversation. M: Sally, come downstairs, please. Look at this job advertisement. W: (from a distance) I'm coming. Walt a moment. (nearer) Eric, I'm here. What's the matter? M: Look, Sally. Here's a job advertisement. "Start a new life with Exco Exports Ltd. as personal assistant to our managing director!" Perhaps it's the job you want. W: Personal assistant to the managing director? Yes, it is! Eric, would you like to read it for me? M: It's my pleasure! Now, listen--"We will give the right person 3,500 pa for a 45-hour week, free training, the chance to join a pension scheme, 3 weeks' holiday per year and a company car! Canteen facilities are also available." W: It sounds not so good. Only 3,500 every year. I think the salary is fairly low. The working hours seem too long, you see, a 45-hour week. Oh, my dear! And the holidays are short too, only 3 weeks. M: But you're interested in this type of job. Since you have no job now, you can treat it as one of your choices. W: Hm, you are right. OK, I'll write down the address. Eric, please repeat it to me. M: "Box 4032, London". W: Good, the company's in London. I don't want to work out of this city. M: Look, there is another point maybe you will be attracted by. W: Yes. Ah, just now, auntie Jenny called me. M: Really? What did she say? W: She told me there's a job opening for a secretarial position in her company. She asked me to apply for it. M: Sounds good. Would you like to try? W: I am interested in the work, but you know, her company is in the city of Edinburgh. So I thanked her and wrote down the address only. M: How kind she is! W: Yes, she is very kind... Oh, she invited us to her villa to attend her birthday party this Saturday. M: Sure we are going to attend it. But what present should we take? How about a bottle of wine, or... W: Eric! Look, here's another job advertisement. M: What is it? W: Listen: "Join one of the world's fastest growing companies: Exco Imports Lid." M: How about the work? W: (go on) "We are looking for a personal... What would the listener say?
