[Q]: M: Yes. I received his invitation this morning. But he didn't tell me what time the party will begin. W: I'll ring him up and ask him about it. How will you go to his party? M: I'll drive to his party after work. Would you like to take my car there? W: I would be glad to. Thank you. What was said before this conversation?

[A]: W: Tomorrow is Mike's birthday. I have just received the invitation to his party. Did Mike invite you, too?

[Q]: M: I'm writing to my parents telling them I'll stay here this summer. W: You're not going home? I thought you were going on a trip to Japan with your family. M: Well, I intended to go with them, but I thought again and changed my mind. W: Tell me. I'm interested in knowing what keeps you from joining your beloved family and staying here. It certainly is not studying. M: No, certainly not. Michael arranged for me to work at his uncle's institution. W: How much will you be paid? M: Judy, I don't do it for money, but for experience. Besides, it's voluntary work. W: You work without payment? That's really something. M: When will you leave for home? W: Tomorrow. We'll fly to Hawaii two days after. I really have to pack now. M: Go then. Have a nice vacation! W: I'll send you postcards. What was said before this conversation?

[A]: W: Hi, Jack. Who are you writing to?

[Q]: W: Yes. I went to New York to attend a summer course in English. M: Wow. You were lucky. How long did you stay there? W: About 50 days. I went there on July 5th and came back on August 25th. M: How about the course? W: The course was very good. The teachers were nice. They taught us to listen, speak, read and write in English, but it was mostly speaking. One interesting thing I found was that the American classes are different from our classes here because the students have a lot more freedom. You can sit anywhere you like in the classroom. You can ask the teachers questions at any time during the class, and you are welcome to share your ideas with the class. I really like this kind of class. M: How interesting! Maybe our teacher should try that. What was said before this conversation?

[A]: M: Hi, Jane. It's nice to see you again. I heard that you went to the US during the vacation.

[Q]: M: Sorry, I just can't help it. W: But it's annoying. M: I don't mean to annoy you. I feel so nervous. W: Why? M: I feel nervous every time I take examinadons. W: Just relax. I used to feel the same way, but now I can handle exams easily. M: How do you make it? W: Well. I attended some lectures on taking exams. M: That works? What's the importance? W: Well, you should know that you've been working really hard. And the most important thing is that you should know that the world wouldn't end if you fail. M: Ok. I'll have a try and see if it works. What was said before this conversation?
