Problem: Read the below conversation. M: According to the report, about 90 percent of the students did quite well in history, but only 70 percent in literature. What would the listener say?

A: W: Well. I still think that history is a little more complicated than literature.
Problem: Given the question: Read the below conversation. Jack: Peter, people around the world come to America to live, work and study, so to understand America in terms of its cultural differences is very important. Peter: I couldn't agree with you more, Jack. Americans are much more assertive than most foreigners. For example, Americans begin a discussion with a focus on accomplishments and concrete facts. Jack: You're right. America is a rather individualistic society, with less social pressure to conform. So you will need to become more assertive and to speak out on your own behalf. Peter: Another aspect of American behavior is Americans are more guarded about personal space. So when you are talking to an American, don't stay too close. This personal distance is not due to body odor or bad breath, but because closeness lends a sense of intimacy that is out of proportion to the relationship at the moment. Jack: Yes. Also, try to avoid physical contact while you are speaking. Touching is a bit too intimate for casual acquaintances. So don't put your arm around their shoulder, touch their face, or hold their hand. Shaking hands when you initially meet or part is acceptable, but this is only momentary. What would the listener say?

The answer is:
Peter: In many cultures, eye contact is a sign of disrespect, which is not the ease in America. In fact, it is an indication of openness, honesty, and enthusiasm.
input question: Read the below conversation. M: Good evening, sir, ma'am. A table for two? W: No, thank you. But we have a small problem. Can you help us? M: Sure. W: We are looking for a hotel. Are there any hotels near here? M: Yes. The nearest one is next to the bank. It's quite modern. W: Do you think there're any cheap ones nearby? M: Yes.

Q: Read the below conversation. M: How would you like to move? W: Move? What do you mean? M: Move to a new city. I'm thinking of getting another job. W: But why? What's the matter with the one you have? M: I don't have a good future in the job I have. Besides, I think it would be nice to move to a warmer climate. I'm tired of shoveling snow all winter. W: Where is this new job? M: In California. There won't be any snow to shovel there, and we can go to the beach all the year round. W: That sounds pretty good, but what kind of job is it? M: I would be the Director of Research for a big drug company near Los Angeles. I'd get a big raise in salary. W: That sounds terribly exciting. But how about the children? Will they like moving? M: Why not? California has many beautiful new schools, and Fred can go skiing up in the mountains. W: What about Paula? I'm sure she won't want to leave all her friends. M: Oh, she can make new ones out there. People are very friendly out west. W: I hope so. But, I'll certainly hate to leave this house. We've lived here so long. M: Well, maybe I won't get the job. I have to fly out there for an interview next week. What would the listener say?
A: W: You know, I must have known you were thinking about getting a new job. Last night I dreamed we were moving.
