Please answer this: M: Wow. Looks like the party is at a high point. W: Yeah. And they're eating all of my food. Oh, I'd like you to meet my sister, Carol. She's visiting on the weekend. M: Oh. Which one is she? W: She's sitting on the sofa over there. M: You mean the woman with long black hair? W: That's right. Let me introduce her to you. You're both so friendly and adventurous. M: And who's the man sitting next to her? Uh, the man wearing the suit jacket? W: Oh, that's Bob, my ballet teacher. M: Ballet teacher! I never knew you could do ballet. W: I started about two months ago. Come on. I'd like you to meet them. M: I'm coming. What was said before this conversation?

Answer: W: Hi, Dave. Good to see you could come a long way. Come in.

Please answer this: W: Morning, Mr. Jones. No, I haven't been out much recently. I've been feeling a bit under the weather. M: I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you don't mind me saying, but you don't look very well. Your face is very pale. Perhaps you need some fresh air to bring the color back to your cheeks. It's a lovely day outside today. W: That's just what I thought. I'm going to go for a walk in the park and then pop into the supermarket. M: You look as if you've lost weight as well. W: I haven't been eating like I usually do. Usually, I love my food, but these last two weeks I just haven't felt cooking and I've eaten very little. Most unlike me. M: Have you been to the doctor? What did she say? W: I didn't bother going to the doctor. It's nothing serious. M: You never know. If you've been feeling like this for two weeks, it's worth getting a check-up just to be sure.

Answer: M: Good morning, Mrs. Wong. How are you? I haven't seen you around the building for the last couple of weeks. Is everything alright?

Please answer this: M: I know, Jenny, it's a huge project - researching. thinking of an argument and then finding details that show the argument is true. W: That part only took me one week. But writing and rewriting,and then deleting and writing again ...that's killing me! M: That part didn't bother me. W: What's your secret? M: I write an outline: a basic plan of what I'm going to say. 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. M: It's easier than you think, and when it's time to write, everything goes really smoothly. I have an outline from last semester that I could show you, if you're interested.
