Now let’s begin with question 1
1. W: I can’t tell if my breast is still there. Have you taken it off?
M: No, Mrs. Green. We just took out the lump. So you can see we’ve caught this thing very early and some X-ray therapy should stop spreading.
Q: What is the woman suffering from？
2. M: My left ankle is still hurting from the fall I had from my bike last week. I wonder if I should
visit a doctor.
W: To play it safe, you probably should.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
3. W: How often should I take these capsules? And how many should I take?
M: Take three capsules every six hours.
Q: How many capsules should the woman take in twenty four hours?
4. M: Mrs. White, have you, your husband or any members of your family suffered from any form
of mental illness?
W: No. But my father’s family has a history of a high blood pressure.
Q: Who probably suffers from hypertension?
5. W: What time does the computer lab close?
M: On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, it closes at 5 p.m. On Tuesday and Thursday, it opens until 9. It stays open until 6 on Saturday. But on Sunday, it’s closed all day.
Q: On which evening is the computer lab open?
6. M: This is the silliest film I have ever seen. It’s plain ridiculous.
W: I have seen dull films, though, but not one so long.
Q: What does the woman feel about the film?
7. W: My son spends a lot of time on the Internet. I’ve heard that this can lead to depression. What
do you think?
M: I’ve heard studies showing there is more depression among users of Internet. But I question which came first: the depression or the Internet?
Q: What does the man mean?
8. M: Would you care for another pear? Don’t worry, we’ve got plenty.
W: I’d love one. But what I don’t have is plenty room in my stomach for one.
Q: What does the woman imply?
9. W: I’ve had this new digital camera for a week. And I still don’t know how to work it even with
these instructions.
M: Didn’t a hotline number come with it?
Q: What does the man imply the woman should do?

W: Not at all. It’s a hand-me-down.
Q: What does the woman say about the dress?
11. M: Did you win the scholarship?
W: who, me? The “D” I got in physics brought my whole average way down.
Q: Why didn’t the woman win the scholarship?
12. M: Have you found a partner to work with on chemistry. The lab class is tomorrow.
W: To tell you the truth, I’ve been tired with my biology course this week.
Q: What can be inferred about the woman?
13. W: I really like classical music, especially the music of Wagner. What about you?
M: Well, actually, classical music is something I haven’t acquired a taste for yet.
Q: What does the man think of classical music?
14. M: Excuse me; I’ve got a bad cold. I have a headache, a sore throat, a slight cough and I ache
all over. Could you recommend something?
W: Well, I can give you a cold capsule that will relieve the running nose and some cough surge.
That ought to do the trick. If you are not better in a couple of days, I would suggest you see a doctor.
Q: Where does this conversation most likely take place?
15. W: Tom, what happened? How come you limping?
M: Someone smashed into my new car. I’m not really hurt. Thanks to my safe-belt.
