input question: M: Good morning, Miss. A friend of mine suggested I call you to hire some bikes. W: Oh, yes. A lot of people do this these days. M: Yes, we're just on holiday here for a few days and they said it would be a good idea to see the island by bicycle. W: Well, it certainly is. And most people rent a motor bike because you can get around faster and even go to the beach if you like. M: If I wanted to hire 2 motor bikes tomorrow morning for 2 days, would there be any problem? W: No problem at all. May I know your name? M: It's Green, G-R-E-E-N. W: And your telephone number? M: I'm at the Holiday Sun Hotel. My number is 0708112, I'm in Room 1203. By the way, is your bike rental shop at No.100 Teckman Street? W: That's right. M: OK, then, I'll see you tomorrow morning. Thanks a lot. W: I'll see you then.

input question: Caller: Yes. I'm calling to find out more information about your program. For example, what kind of courses do you offer? Receptionist: Well, first of all, the purpose of our program is to provide language learning opportunities to this area's community [Uh-hum], whether a student's goal is to master basic functional language skills, let's say, for his or her job, or to study intensively to enter a US college or university. Caller: Okay. I'm calling for a friend who is interested in attending a US university. Receptionist: And that's the kind of, uh, instruction that we provide, from basic communication courses to content-based classes such as computer literacy, intercultural communication, and business English. Caller: Great. What are your application deadlines for the next semester? Receptionist: Well, we ask applicants to apply no later than two months before the semester begins. [Uh-hum] This gives us time to process the application and issue the student's I-20. Caller: An I-20? Receptionist: Oh, an I-20 is a form that indicates that we are giving permission for the student to study in our program, and then the student takes this form to the US embassy in his or her country to apply for the F-1 student visa. Caller: Alright. What is the tuition for a full-time student? Receptionist: It's two thousand thirty dollars. Caller: And how does one apply? Receptionist: Well, we can send you an application and you can mail it back to us, or you can fill out our application that's online at our Web site. Caller: And are there other materials I would need to send in addition to the application form? Receptionist: Uh, yes. You would need to send in a $35 non-refundable application fee [Uh-huh], a sponsorship form indicating who will be responsible financially for the student while studying in our program, and a bank statement showing that you or your sponsor has sufficient funds to cover tuition expenses and living costs for the entire year of study. Caller: And how can I send these materials to... What was said before this conversation????

input question: W: Sure, we can sit here. Be seated. M: Gee, you've hardly got anything on your tray. W: Yeah, I guess I'm just not that hungry. M: What's the matter? Aren't you feeling well? W: Well, I've been really worried. It's my car. It's in the repair shop again! M: Really? What's wrong this time? W: I don't know exactly. Something's wrong with the brakes I think. M: Well, at least that shouldn't cost too much to fix. Parts are cheaper for old American cars like yours. Did the mechanic say how much it would cost? W: He said he'd call me with an estimate later on today. M: Watch out he doesn't try to take advantage of you. W: What do you mean? M: Well, some car mechanics, if they think that someone doesn't know much about cars, they might try to overcharge that person. W: Maybe so, but I trust this guy. He was recommended by one of my neighbors. He's done some work for me in the past and his prices seemed to be reasonable. M: Oh, that's good to know. Maybe I'll try using him in the future. By the way, did you need a ride home after class today? W: Oh, I'll sure appreciate it. It's really tough getting around without a car when you live off campus. M: You are right, I think now you should think about moving back to your dormitory. If I were you, I would be fed up with those troubles. What was said before this conversation????
