PART A Getting Started: Short Conversations

1. W: I don't think we should have told Tom about the surprise party for Lucy. M: It's all right. He promised not to tall her, and he doesn't make promises lightly. Q: What does the man mean?

2. W：I didn't come yesterday because I had a temperature. Could you tell me your requirements for my term paper?

M: The theme of your paper can be about business management or touring resources in China and the length of your paper should be no less than 15 pages. Q: What is the most probable relationship between the two speakers?

3. M: Though we didn't win the game, we were satisfied with our performance. W: You did a great job. You almost beat the world champions. It's a surprise to many people.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

4. W: This is Mrs. Thatcher. My heater is not getting any power and the weatherman says the temperature is going to be far below zero tonight. Could you get someone to come over and fix it?

M: This is the busiest time of the year, but I'd speak to one of our men about going over sometime today..

Q: What did Mrs. Thatcher want to come over?

5. M: Did you notice that after almost ten years in the United States, Mr. Lee still speaks English with such a strong accent?

W: Yes, but he is proud of it. He says it's part of his identity. Q: What does the conversation tell us about Mr. Lee?

6. M: I lost the piece of paper Laura gave me, you know, the one with her address on it.

W: You might be able to find it listed in the phone book. Q: What does the woman mean?

7. M: Do you know if Sarah has reserved the room for the committee meeting yet? W: No. But if she hasn't, we should have her try to get the auditorium. We'll need the space.

Q: What does the woman want Sarah to do?

8; W: I am having trouble slicing the bread with this knife.

M: Oh, sorry about that. I haven't got around to sharpening it yet. Q: What can be inferred about the knife?

9. M: You ought to be a lot more persuasive if you want to convince the committee to accept your proposal.

W: I am not sure what else I could say. Besides, I don't think they'll reject it. Q: What does the woman mean?

10. M: Do you think you'll be able to get this ink stain out of my pants?

W: It won't be a problem. But I’ll need to send them over to our main cleaning facility. That's an extra day's time. Q: What does the woman mean?

11. M: Did you watch the comedy special on TV last night? I don't think I've ever laughed so hard.

W: Don't even talk to me about it. The only night 1 really wanted to watch something and we had a power failure in my building. Q: What does the woman mean?

12. W: Well, if you are seriously considering buying a car, I am trying to get rid of mine. All you need is some new paint.

M: Thanks, but most used cars then bring more trouble than they are worth. Q: What will the man probably do?

13. M: Could you give me a ride to the dean's office?

W: Don't you have anything else to wear other than that sweater? Q: What does the woman imply?

14. M: I've just heard about your acceptance into the law school. Do you think that you'll be able to join your brother's firm when you graduate?
