Q: M: Waitress! I think there's something wrong with our bill. W: No, I don't think so...$10 for the drinks, 15 for the small plate, and 20 for the main dish. M: What? I knew the cheese sticks were 15. I always order cheese sticks, but I thought the main dish was $10. W: Oh, that explains it. You think the bill should be $35. M: Yes, exactly. I was wondering what happened to the rest of my change. I should have gotten back 15, not 5! W: I understand. Sometimes people aren't honest, but I think this was an honest mistake. Didn't you order the sea cucumbers for dinner? M: Yes, and they were delicious. Best cucumbers ever! I'm so glad I'm a vegetarian. W: Sir, I am so sorry. Have you ordered sea cucumbers before? They aren't vegetables, you know. M: Really? I thought it was a vegetable that grew in the ocean. W: No. They're seafood. M: Oh, no! W: I'm so sorry, sir. I assumed you understood what you were ordering. M: Actually, Jenny took my order. Maybe I can talk to her. W: She had an emergency at home. I came in to take over her tables. But I'm sure if I talk to the manager, we can give you a discount for the order. M: That's OK., Question: Why does the man think his bill was wrong? (A) He forgot he had ordered a small plate.

W: Well, it sounds like you really had to do all those things. But you shouldn't work too hard. Do you know what you should do at the moment? M: What? W: Take some time off. M: Go on holiday?

Q: W: Hi, John. M: Oh! Hi, Laura. What are you doing here? W: Uh, I'm usually here on weekends. It's my uncle's shop. So you are looking for a bike? M: Yeah. Now that the weather is warming up, I thought I should get some exercise instead of taking the bus all the time. W: Well, that's a good idea and you come to the right place. Do you know what you like? M: Well, I don't want a racer or a touring bike or anything like that. Mostly I'll just be using it to get me back and forth from work. W: How far is that? M: About four miles. W: Are there a lot of hills on the way? M: Some, I guess. But maybe I should tell you at first that I only got 150 dollars. Can I get anything decent for that? W: Well, you are not going to get anything on the top of the line. But we do have a few trade-ins in the back that are in good condition. M: That sounds good. W: And you are right. For the kind of ride you are going to be doing, the most important thing is comfort. You want to make sure it's the right height for you? Follow me and I'll show you what we've got., Question: Why is Laura at the shop? (A) She's waiting for John. (B) She is working there for her uncle. (C) She's looking for her uncle.

(B) She is working there for her uncle.
