Section A Conversations

Short Conversations

11。

M： The biological project is now in trouble。 You know， my colleague and I have completely different ideas about how to proceed。

W： Why don’t you compromise？ Try to make it a win－win situation for you both。

Q： What does the woman suggest the man do？

12。

M： How does Nancy like the new dress she bought in Rome？

W： She said she would never have bought an Italian style dress if she had known Mary had already got such a dress。

Q： What do we learn from the conversation？

13。

M： You are not going to do all those dishes before we leave， are you？ If we don’t pick up George and Martha in 25 minutes， we’ll never get to the theater on time。

W： Oh， didn’t I tell you？ Martha called to say her daughter was ill and they could not go tonight。

Q： What is the woman probably going to do first？

14。

M： You’ve been hanging onto the phone for quite a while。 Who were you talking with？

W： Oh， it was Sally。 You know she always has the latest news in town and can’t wait to talk it over with me。

Q： What do we know about Sally from the conversation？

15．

W： It’s always been hard to get this car into first gear and now the clutch seems to be sleeping。

M： If you leave the car with me， I’ll fix it for you this afternoon。

Q： Who is the woman probably speaking to？

16。

M： Kate， why does the downtown area look deserted now？

W： Well， there used to be some really good stores， but lots of them moved out to the mall。

Q： What do we learn from the conversation？

17。

W： I find the lounge such a cozy place to study in。 I really like the feeling when sitting on the sofa and doing the reading。

M： Well for me the hardest part about studying here is staying awake。

Q： What does the man mean？

18．

W： These mosquito bites are killing me。 I can’t help scratching。

M： Next time you go camping， take some precaution， say， wearing long sleeves。

Q： Why does the man suggest the woman wear long sleeves？
