[Q]: Read the below conversation. Heather: Ron, what are you doing? Ron: Ah, nothing. I'm just looking up some information on the Internet. Heather: Like what? Let me see. Ron: No, no, it's okay. I mean, you know ... Heather: Baldness? What are you looking that up for? [Well, you know ... ] I ... I mean, you're not that bad off. Ron: Ah, there you go. Bringing it up again! Heather: No. I mean it. You look great! Honestly, it's not that bad. Ron: Hey, I get enough of it from friends, and the people at work, and now from you! Heather: Well, maybe you could wear a toupee? I think you'd look great. Ron: Oh no. And have it slip off my head on to my date's dinner plate as I lean over to kiss her? Uh-uh. Heather: Well, have you ever thought about seeking medical advice? There are new advances in medicines that not only retard hair loss, but help regenerate new growth. Ron: Ah, I still don't give much credibility to medical treatment to prevent permanent hair loss. Heather: Well, what about accepting the fact that you're just losing your hair? Ron: I just can't give up hope. I know appearances shouldn't matter, but I don't know. I just feel that women just avoid me. Heather: Come on. You can't be serious. What would the listener say?

[A]: Ron: No really. I've seen it many times. It just, I don't know ...
input: Please answer the following: Read the below conversation. Man: Hi, Sis. I just came over to drop off the DVDs you wanted, and ... Hey, wow!? Where did you get all of this stuff? Woman: I bought it. So, what do you think of my new entertainment center? And the widescreen TV ... Man: Bought it? Woman: ... and my new DVD player. Here, let me show you my stereo. You can really rock the house with this one. Man: But where did you get the dough to buy all this? You didn't borrow money from mom and dad again, did you? Woman: Of course not. I got it with this! Man: This? Let me see that ... Have you been using Dad's credit card again? Woman: No, silly. It's mine. It's student credit card. Man: A student credit card? How in the world did you get one of these? Woman: I got an application in the mail. Man: Well, why did you get one in the first place? Woman: Listen. Times are changing, and having a credit card helps you build a credit rating, control spending, and even buy things that you can't pay with cash ... like the plane ticket I got recently. Man: What plane ticket? Woman: Oh yeah, my roommate and I are going to Hawaii over the school break, and course, I needed some new clothes for that so ... Man: I don't want to hear it. How does having a student credit card control spending? It sounds you've spent yourself in a hole. Anyway, student credit cards just lead to impulse spending ... as I can see here. And the interest rates of student credit cards are usually sky-high, and if you miss a payment, the rates, well, just jump! Woman: Ah. The credit card has a credit limit ... Man: ... of $20,000? Woman: No, no quite that high. Anyway, ... Man: I've heard enough. Woman: Did I tell you we now get digital cable with over 100 channels? Oh, and here's your birthday present. A new MP3 player ... Man: Yeah. Oh, don't tell me. Charged on the credit card. Listen. Hey, I don't think having a student credit card is a bad idea, but this is ridiculous. And how in the world are you going to pay off your credit card bill? Woman: Um, with my birthday money? It's coming... What would the listener say?

output: Man: Hey, let's sit down and talk about how you're going to pay things back, and maybe we can come up with a budget that will help you get out of this mess. That's the least I can do.
Please answer this: Read the below conversation. M: I'm sorry. I'm late. W: That's all right. John. My house is not that easy to find. But you know you wouldn't have gotten lost if you had a smart car. M: A smart car? What's that? W: I just read a magazine article about some new technology that can make a car smart. One device is a computerized map display and an artificial voice. You just enter the address for where you want to go and the voice will tell you how to get there,street by street. M: Hey, that's just like my brother. He never gets lost and he's always telling me the best route. So what else will the smart cars be able to do? W: Well, the article says there'll be a device with read-on warning systems that will warn drivers with a long signal if they're getting too close to other cars. And they will even put on brakes if the drivers don't. M: Tell me, Shelly. Will these cars be smart enough to fill themselves up with gas? W: Not by now. Why do you ask? What would the listener say?

Answer: M: I'm not late because I got lost. I'm late because I ran out of gas on the way over there.
