M: Yeah, they are lucky they can find meals in lots of places. We have to go to the grocery store to buy our food. W: True, but I wouldn't want to eat what they do, even if it's free. What was said before this conversation?

Answer: W: Those birds love my yard. See? They are probably looking for worms.
Q: W: Where are we going to get that kind of money? M: It sounds like a lot, but by the time you add up the air fare, meals and hotels, it's pretty reasonable. W: But I doubt we'll all be able to go. Remember there were 32 people in the band last year. M: We can make it. For our last trip, we got some money from some companies. W: Who was in charge of money raising? M: Mary. She took care of it last time. What was said before this conversation?
A: M: I just saw Professor Black. He finished the budget for our concert tour. It's going to cost $1,500 per person.
Question: M: Ok, but we must finish our homework first. What was said before this conversation?
Answer: W: Tomorrow is Saturday. Shall we go fishing?
[Q]: M: Well, let me look at it. Hmm, it seems that it just needs a new battery. W: Oh, that's really. I got some water on it last week and I was afraid that it might ruin the watch. M: How much is a new battery? M: It's 6.99, and we not only change a battery but also guarantee it for a year. And if you have the watch cleaned here, we can guarantee it for an additional three months. W: That sounds like a good deal. I'll get my battery here. When will it be ready? M: Usually I can do it right away but now I'm repairing lots of watches and I am way behind. Can you leave your watch here until 5 PM? W: Okey, see you then. What was said before this conversation?

[A]: W: Excuse me, my watch stopped running, and I am not sure what's wrong with it.
input: Please answer the following: W: Hello, dad? M: Yes... Mary! How are you? Anything wrong? W: Oh, no. I just wanted to call and see how you and Morn are. It's been quite a while since I saw you last time. M: Oh, we're both fine. Your mother is down at the new shopping center shopping. W: For a new dress? M: No, for shoes this time, I think. How's David? W: He's fine. He likes his work and was given a raise last month by Mr Smith. We are all pretty pleased about that. M: Yes, I think you should be. And how are the children? W: Well, George's home from school today. It's nothing serious, just a bad cold. And. it's his birthday, too! M: Oh, I thought his birthday was May 24th. W: No. April 24th. M: Well, that's too bad. Tell him we'll send him a present. W: All right. Diane's still taking dancing lessons. M: She must be pretty good by now. How about Tom? W: He's OK, too. He's having a part-time job at a garage now. M: Well, it's certainly good to hear your voice. W: OK, dad. Nice talking to you and give Morn our love. M: All right. Good-bye. What was said before this conversation?

Driver: Where to? Passenger: Well, I'm going to the National Museum of Art, and .... Driver: Sure. Hop in. No problem. Hang on! Passenger: Uh. Excuse me. How long does it take to get there? Driver: Well, that all depends on the traffic, but it shouldn't take more than twenty minutes for the average driver. [Oh]. And I'm not average. I have driving down to an art, so we should be able to cruise through traffic and get there in less than fifteen minutes. Passenger: Okay. Uh, sorry for asking [Yeah?], but do you have any idea how much the fare will be? Driver: Oh, it shouldn't be more than 18 dollars ... not including a ... uh-hum ... a tip of course. Passenger: Oh, and by the way, do you know what time the museum closes? Driver: Well, I would guess around 6:00 O'clock. Passenger: Uh, do you have the time? Driver: Yeah. It's half past four. [Thanks] Uh, this IS your first time to the city, right? Passenger: Yeah. How did you know? Driver: Well, you can tell tourists from a mile away in this city because they walk down the street looking straight up at the skyscrapers. Passenger: Was it that obvious? Driver: Well ... Passenger: Oh, before I forget, can you recommend any good restaurants downtown that offer meals at a reasonable price? Driver: Umm ... Well, the Mexican restaurant, La Fajita, is fantastic. [Oh] It's not as inexpensive as other places I know, but the decor is very authentic, [Okay] and the portions are larger than most places I've been to. Passenger: Sounds great! How do I get there from the museum? Driver: Well, you can catch the subway right outside the museum. There are buses that run that way, but you would have to transfer a couple of times. And there are taxis too, but they don't run by the museum that often. Passenger: Okay. Thanks. What was said before this conversation?
