input question: M: Well, Double the Fun is a party bus where you and up to 50 friends can hold celebrations. All buses have fridges for cold drinks, disco-quality sound, an amazing light show and comfortable leather seats. What we don't have is cooking equipment. All buses also have a bus host, whose job is to make sure all the guests get back on the bus after each stop. W: After each stop? So guests don't spend the whole evening driving around on the bus? M: No! In fact, we take them to 4 different clubs during the evening. At each club, we've booked special VIP entrance, which means no waiting to get in, and everyone gets a free drink. W: Anything else our listeners should know about the parties? M: Yes, all guests must be smartly dressed. No jeans or sports shoes. The only exception would be if they want to have a fancy-dress party. And we need to know the time you book if you are planning a fancy-dress party. Clubs like to know in advance when parties will be arriving. W: Thanks, Dennis. What was said before this conversation????
output answer: W: On today's show we have Dennis Dean, owner of Double the Fun bus parties. Hi, Dennis. Can you tell us what you do?
Customer: Yes. I'd like a large pepperoni pizza with mushrooms and green peppers. Employee: Would you like anything else? Customer: Well, wait. Uh, can I make that a half-and-half pizza? Employee: Sure. What would you like on each half? Customer: Uh, what toppings do you have? Employee: Well, we have Italian sausage, ham, mushrooms, onions, pineapple, black olives, green peppers, bacon, tomatoes, shrimp, clams, and squid. Customer: Shrimp, clams, and squid!? What kind of pizza is that? Employee: Uh, the manager spent some time overseas [Oh.], and thinks his new seafood pizza will be a hit with customers, but to be honest, the "Swimmer's Special," as he calls it, is an acquired taste. Customer: Uh, I'll pass on the "Sink or Swim" special, but I'll have pepperoni and mushrooms on one half and green peppers and Italian sausage on the other. Oh, and could I get extra cheese on that pizza? Employee: Alright. Would you care for any bread sticks or beverage with your order? [Well ... I don't know.] Actually, we have a Friday night special going on right now [Oh!], and if you order any large pizza and drink, we'll throw in a free order of bread sticks, plus a three dollar coupon for use with your next pizza order. Customer: Huh, sure, why not. And what drink comes with the pizza? Employee: Either apple or orange juice. Customer: I'll take orange juice. Employee: Okay. Your total comes to fifteen nineteen, which includes tax. [Okay.] And could I have your name? Customer: Uh, yeah, Jay Han. Employee: Huh? Did you say "Jay Hand"? Customer: No, it's "Han." Actually, it's a Korean name, but many people have difficulty making it out. Hey, maybe I SHOULD change my name to "Hand." Employee: Ah, names are important; don't change it. [Okay.] Oh, and your address and telephone number? Customer: It's 1340 South 16 East, and the phone number is 340-1870 (three-four-zero-eighteen, seventy). Employee: Okay. Let me repeat your order. A large half-and-half pizza. [Okay.] One half with pepperoni [Yeah.] and... What was said before this conversation?

Question: W: Hello! Glad to meet you. M: Tell me something about yourself, please. W: My name is Wan Mei and I live in Guangzhou. I was born in 1987. I am a student of Jinan University. I have majored in Public Administration, I like travelling very much and enjoy sports. I am in the tennis club at my university. M: Your application form says you were out of school for half a year during high school. What was the reason? Were you ill? W: Oh. No. My father's job took him to America for six months then, and he decided to take the whole family along. M: So during that time you went to high school in the United States? W: Yes, it was just for a few months. I attended Johnson High School in Chicago. M: Tell me why you are interested in working for this company, will you? W: I think working in this company would give me the best opportunity to use what I've learned at college, studying public administration for four years. I think this company has a great future. So for a long time I've been thinking I'd like to work for this company. M: Have you ever worked during your university days? W: Yes. I worked as a teacher to teach English to a middle school student. M: There's a good chance for you to come to work for this company. Thank you for coming. Good bye! W: Good bye!
