input question: Read the below conversation. Dave: Hi Randall. [ Hi ] Come on in. Randall: Uh, yeah, I stopped by to see if you were still looking for a roommate to share your house. Dave: Yeap. I sure am. Ever since I cut back on my working hours to go to school, I've been really strapped for cash. Randall: Oh. Dave: Hey, let me show you the place. Uh, here's the living room. Randall: Oh. It looks like you could use a new carpet ... and those stains? Dave: Well. I've had a few problems with some former roommates. I know it needs to be cleaned, but I just don't have the money to do it right now. Randall: Oh. And what about the kitchen? Dave: Right this way. Look. It's completely furnished with all the latest appliances, except ... Randall: What? Dave: Well, the refrigerator door is broken ... a little bit ... and it won't shut all the way. It needs fixing, but don't worry. I've just improvised by pushing a box against it to keep it shut. Randall: Hmm. Great. Dave: Ah. It isn't that bad. Randall: Well how about the bathroom? Dave: Well ... Randall: No, no. Don't tell me. The toilet is clogged or the sink has a few leaks. Dave: No, those work fine, but, uh, the tile in the shower needs to be replaced, and the window needs fixing. Randall: Let me see. The tile ... what? The window? Where's the window pane? Dave: Well, that's another slight problem. I've put up a piece of cardboard to keep out the [ Hmmm ] rain and snow, and if it gets a little cold, you can always turn up the heat. Well, you used to until the central heating went out. [Oh boy.] Randall: Hey, I think I've seen enough. I can't believe you've survived under these conditions. Dave: So what do you think? You really can't beat a place like this for $450 a month. So it has a few problems, but we can fix those. What would the listener say????
output answer: Randall: Uh, no thank you. I think I've seen enough.

Q: Read the below conversation. M: I'd like to book a ticket to Los Angeles. W: What day are you planning to go? M: I am supposed to be there on the morning of the 14th But I'd rather get there on the evening of the 13th. W: What time would you like to leave? M: Late in the afternoon, after work. W: We have a flight at 4:30. M: That's too early. I can't get out of work until five. Do you have a later flight? W: The next flight is at 5:15, and there is another at 6:30. M: I'd better take 6:30. It takes quite a while to get to the airport. What would the listener say?

Question: Read the below conversation. W: I don't know what to do. I can't seem to get anyone in the hospital to listen to my complaints and this outdated equipment is dangerous. Just look at it. M: Hmm, uh, are you trying to say that it presents a health hazard? W: Yes, I am. The head technician in the lab tried to persuade the hospital administration to replace it, but they are trying to cut costs. M: You are pregnant, aren't you? W: Yes, I am. I made an effort to get my supervisor to transfer me to another department, but he urged me not to complain too loudly. Because the administration is more likely to replace me than an X-ray equipment, I'm afraid to refuse to work. But I'm more afraid to expose my unborn child to the radiation. M: I see what you mean. Well, as your union representative, I have to warn you that it would take quite a while to force management to replace the old machines and attempt to get you transferred may or may not be successful. W: Oh, what am I supposed to do then? M: Workers have the legal right to refuse certain unsafe work assignments under two federal laws, the Occupation or Safety and Health Act and the National Labor Relations Act. But the requirements of either of the Acts may be difficult to meet. W: Do you think I have a good case? What would the listener say?
Answer: M: If you do lose your job, the union will fight to get it back for you along with back pay, your lost income. But you have to be prepared for a long wait, maybe after two years.
[Q]: Read the below conversation. M: Don't be mad at me. I'm only five minutes late. W: This is the last time I'm waiting for you. I mean it. M: You know, I always have a good excuse. I promise you: you'll never have to wait for me again. What would the listener say?
****
[A]: W: I hope so. Come on, let's go get our tickets now. Oh, by the way, you have got your wallet with you, don't you? I left mine at home.
