Problem: Given the question: M: I think in the beginning they were looking for a chance to be famous. I don't think they were sure about what they were able to achieve. W: Could either of them have done it alone? M: Neither brother could have flown alone. It was the work of two minds. Two minds that came together at some point and became one. That's what happened. W: What did the people in the neighborhood think of the Wright brothers? M: Most people were interested in the Wright brothers. But I think some of them were worried. You see, here are two men flying kites in the mid- dle of the day when they should be working. The men, I think, were curious about what was going on there. The children were excited to see these two men flying kites just like they were children. What was said before this conversation?

input question: M: But, Jane, why not rent one with Handbag Hire? Instead of $ 990,pay $ 50,and you have it for a whole week. W: Sounds great, but I never knew I can rent a handbag. M: Handbag Hire is a new business. It was founded two months ago. Its collection covers many designer handbags. W: So... for the price of one Murrberry, I can use a different bag each week for twenty weeks? M: Absolutely. And if you like one of them, you can choose to buy it at a discounted rate. Of course the price varies by age and condition. For example, a $ 1500 Murrberry bag can sell for just $750. W: Great, but how do I rent? By telephone? Or in person? M: Either. And more conveniently, it accepts online orders. W: I'll do it on line now. I still have one more question. Mary's wedding is next Saturday. There are only five days left. Do I have enough time? M: Don't worry. It promises that customers receive their orders by post within two days. Three more days to go. W: Oh, I'd better order one right now. What was said before this conversation????

And then I fill it in with topics for each paragraph. After that,I put notes about what details to include. W: That sounds hard.
