Problem: Read the below conversation. M: Hello, I have just seen your advertisement. You haven't rented it out yet, have you? W: No, I haven't. Come in and have a look. M: Thank you. W: It's just a simple room. My son used to live in it. Now he is grown and long gone, and my husband died last year. So I thought maybe I'd take in a roomer. M: A nice, quiet house. That's what I'm looking for. W: This way, Sir. M: Oh, this is a very pleasant room. How much is the rent? W: Fifty dollars a week. I won't charge you anything for electricity, gas and heat. Oh, yes, you can use the kitchen and refrigerator too. M: Well, I like this place very much. But, you know, my government doesn't give me much money. So you know what I mean. W: Oh, yes. You seem like a very nice young man. What about $ 40? M: That's good, Mrs. ... W: Price. Susan Price. M: My name is Wang Li. I've just come from China to study at the university. W: Oh, isn't that lovely? M: May I move in tomorrow morning. Mrs. Price. W: Fine. I'll be expecting you around ten. If you don't mind, I'd like to have the first two weeks' rent in advance. What would the listener say?

A: M: OK. I'll give it to you tomorrow morning. See you tomorrow.
Problem: Given the question: Read the below conversation. M: Are you OK, Lily? You don't look very happy. W: Oh, David. I had an argument with mum again. I'm not getting enough pocket money. M: How much do you get? W: Five pounds a week. M: That sounds reasonable to me. W: Well, I'm 14 and if you are going to town shopping, you can never have enough money. Everything is so expensive. M: But is it fair amount of money? Compare what your friends get. W: Well, we all get the same. But I have to buy all my music things as well things for school and have hardly anything left to spend on clothes. M: Right. Do you have to help around house? W: Not really. M: So you don't have to do anything for this pocket money. W: Mum said if I did that I will never have time to do my school work. M: Has she said you can have more pocket money when you are 15? W: Well, Mum just says she'll decide when I'm ready to have more. And I've just got to wait. M: Maybe you should sit down with her and say "How can I prove that I am old enough to get more?" W: So, I should talk to her again. M: Yes, but don't argue with her. Just discuss it calmly. What would the listener say?

The answer is:
W: OK, thanks.
input question: Read the below conversation. W: I'm free this afternoon. Shall we go to the movies? M: OK. But I hate love stories. Any films about war on today? W: I'm afraid not. How about the theatre? M: Well, most plays are badly written, though they're cheap. W: Let's go to a concert. You like music very much, don't you? M: Yes, light music. But now you can only hear noisy music, American songs or songs where you can't understand a single word. W: What are you going to do then? M: Why not go to the library to borrow some books. You like reading as much as I do, don't you? What would the listener say????
output answer: W: OK, let's.
Read the below conversation. W: You said you wanted to talk to me about that course I'm doing this term. Music? M: Actually I was a bit confused because I thought you were majoring in maths. W: That's right, I am. I'm doing four months courses this year. Music is an optional course - you just choose it if you're interested. Why? Are you thinking about doing it? M: Well, I'm not sure. What are the requirements? W: Well, for a start, it's distance learning - you don't actually have to be at the university to do it. M: I'm more worried about the actual musical things. Like, I don't know how to read music. W: That doesn't matter. You'll learn as you go along. What about computer skills? You're OK there? M: Yes, of course. Does that matter? What would the listener say?

Answer: W: Yes, I'd say they're necessary. Like I said, it's all distance learning, so it's computer-based.
Q: Read the below conversation. W: Hey, do you want to go for a picnic in the park tomorrow afternoon? M: I can't. I just started coaching a boys' football team. We have a game tomorrow. W: Oh, that sounds fun. Maybe I can come see it. M: Sure! The game starts at two, but we'll be there at 1:00 to prepare. It'll be at the football field beside the high school, across from the post office. W: OK, great. I'll be there at 1:30, then. But why did you decide to coach a football team? What would the listener say?
A: M: Well, I thought it might be a bad idea at first, because I was so busy at work. But then I thought, why not?
[Q]: Read the below conversation. Interviewer: Right then, Roger, what made you take off to the country in the first place? Roger: Well, I suppose any one who moves to the country wants their life to be different in some way. I mean, if you have always lived in a city, as I had, then something must happen to make you want to move. In my case I was made redundant, and, when it came to looking around for a new job, I just couldn't face going back into an office again. So I sat down and thought about what I'd really like to do. Interviewer: And that, I suppose, turned out to be something in the country? Roger: No, initially I didn't think of moving, but just of getting a different kind of job, you know social work with kids or old people, that kind of tiring. Interviewer: So what happened, why didn't you? Roger: Well, I hadn't got any of the right qualifications, and it would have taken me two years to get qualified and I certainly didn't want to go back to formal education again. Interviewer: Couldn't you have learned while on the job sort of picked it up as you went along? Roger: No, you have to have a diploma. Anyway, after talking it over with friends who had moved out I thought I'd like to give it a try--after all, a change of scene... Interviewer: Is better than.., yes, we all know that. So, where did you go when you did decide to move? Roger: I went right out to Shropshire. After all I thought if you're going to go rural you might as well do it properly. The first problem though was how I was going to make a living. There are fewer jobs in the country, so I decided to start up on my own. Interviewer: That's pretty ambitious, a townie moving off to the depths of the country and setting up his own business. How did you start, had you got any skills? Roger: I'd always had a garden and grown some vegetables and flowers, you know, usual things, salad stuff, carrots, peas, beans, a bit of fruit, some roses.., so I thought of a small holding, a kind of small farm. But when I looked at the prices to buy, I changed my mind; I didn't... What would the listener say?
