Q: W: Hi, Mr. White. I'm here to buy a pair of shoes for Tom again. M: He wore out the pair you bought last month? W: Yes. Sometimes I think I should buy him a pair of iron shoes. M: Oh, no. What you need is a pair of strong and comfortable shoes. W: What's your suggestion? M: Maybe you should buy him a pair of leather shoes. W: Tom doesn't like leather shoes. M: Then, how about sports shoes? They are strong and comfortable. W: It seems that is the only choice. All right. I'll take your suggestion. How about this pair? M: They are good.

A: M: Hi, Mrs. Smith. Nice to see you here.
Question: W: Well, I wasn't paying attention when I started to cross the street, and I stepped in front of a taxi. I didn't realize it was still moving. M: Can you walk? W: Not very well. M: Where does it hurt? W: My side hurts when I take a step? M: Okay, don't try to walk anymore. Don't worry. An ambulance is on the way. You know, you're very lucky; you could have easily been killed in the accident. W: Yes, I guess I could have. M: You'll have to fill out a form. Do you have any identification with you? W: I have my passport. By the way, how did you get here so fast? M: Someone dialed 911 and reported the accident. We were in the area and got a radio call. It only took a minute or so to get here.

Answer: M: Tell me what happened.
[Q]: M: I did just buy a car, but it's not exactly a new one-it was made back in the 1950s. Here, take a look at this photo. W: You are right. This car hasn't been new for a long time. Couldn't you afford a newer car? M: Believe it or not, this car costs almost as much as a new one. W: Really? How could it be? M: Well, a lot of cars from the 40s, 50s and 60s have become collectors' items and are worth a lot of money. W: But this one doesn't seem to be in very good shape. M: The engine is still in good condition. I plan to fix up the interior and paint the car myself. Then it will be worth even more money. W: So then you'll resell it? M: No, I don't plan to resell it, but I might enter it in some classical auto shows. Maybe I'll win a prize. What was said before this conversation?
