Read the following conversation and answer the question. W: I have no idea how to finish the timetable. M: You don't have to be very creative. It's very standard and more or less the same every year. For example, the sports day begins with throwing events. All jumping events take place before lunch. W: Why? M: That's because the school doesn't want the athletes to jump after eating. The jumping events take place after the throwing events. And the long distance race takes place before the jumping events. W: And after lunch? M: Actually, the school doesn't want any events to take place at that time. But they can practise for the next event. W: Do you mean the 100-meter race? M: Yes. It demands a lot of energy and seems to be the most exciting event, so it takes place at the end of the day, which is around 5:00 p. m. Question: What's the woman doing for the sports meet? - Making a timetable for the events. - Making a standard for the events. - Writing a report about the athletes.
Making a timetable for the events.

You see, our clients are very demanding, especially when it comes to new office technology. W: Oh, that's no problem. I took extra classes in office skills at school. M: Oh, perhaps you'd like to outline what you've been doing? W: I started by learning keyboard skills. Then I went in to learn about word processing. M: Good.
