Short Conversations
1.
W: Wow, what variety of salads you've got on your menu! Could you recommend
something special?
M: Well, I think you can try this mixed salad. We make the dressing with
fresh berries.
Q: What does the man mean?
2.
W: I was talking to Mary the other day and she mentioned that your new
consulting firm is doing really well.
M: Yes, business picked up much faster than we anticipated. We now have
over 200 clients.
Q: What do we learn about the man from the conversation?
3.
M: Do you know where we keep flash discs and printing paper?
W: They should be in the cabinet if there are any. That's where we keep all
of our office supplies.
Q: What does the woman mean?
4.
W: The print in this dictionary is so small. I can't read the explanations
at all.
M: Let me get my magnifying glass. I know I just can't do without it.
Q: What does the man mean?
5.
W: I'm considering having my office redecorated. The furniture is old and
the paint is chipping.
M: I'll give you my sister-in-law's number. She just graduated from an
interior design academy and will give a free estimate.
Q: What is the woman considering?
6.
W: We have a full load of goods that needs to be delivered. But we can't
get a container ship anywhere.
M: That's always been a problem in this port. The facilities here are never
able to meet our needs.
Q: What are the speakers talking about?
7.
W: Why didn't Rod get a pay raise?
M: The boss just isn't convinced that his work attitude warranted. She said
she saw him by the coffee machine more often than at his desk.
Q: What are the speakers talking about?
8.
W: The hotel called, saying that because of a scheduling error, they won't
be able to cater for our banquet.
M: I know an Indian restaurant on the High Street that offers a special
dinner for groups. The food is excellent and the room is large enough to
accommodate us.
Q: What does the man suggest they do?
