[Q]: W: What do the Romans do? M: They live in Rome, of course, and go to work by car or bus. But sometimes it takes too long that way because of the traffic jams, so they walk. W: In other words, the Romans do what everyone else does. M: Yes, but they do it differently. Everything is different. W: What do you mean? M: Well, the climate is different for a start. It doesn't rain so much as it does in England. The sun shines more often. W: I envy them for the sun. M: I Know. You hate the rain, don't you? W: I certainly do. M: And a Roman really loves life. They always eat spaghetti and drink wine. W: Not always, but they like a good meal. Lots of tourists go to Rome just for food. M: Sure. What was said before this conversation?

[Q]: M: Yeah. On Saturday, I'm flying to Toronto. W: Is this another engineering conference for work? M: No. I'm meeting with friends. But I earned so many miles by traveling for work that the ticket was free. W: That's impressive. You fly a lot. I've only been on a plane a few times. M: Really? Don't you travel with your dad? W: No. He travels a lot because he is a banker,and he has an office in Japan. When he's working in New York, we take the train to visit him. M: Oh, I thought you drove. W: No, my mom dislikes driving in the city. Besides, the train is super relaxing. M: What does your mom do for work? W: She's a nurse. But she gets the weekends off. M: I see. Does she like New York? W: Actually,neither of us likes it that much. But we love spending time with my dad there. What was said before this conversation?
