11. W: How can I get all of this data put into the computer on time?
M: You should ask Mary to give you a hand.
Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?
12. M: Since I didn’t even begin my project, I might not go to class today.
W: Are you kidding? That would only put you further behind.
Q: What is the woman’s opinion?
13. W: You certainly have a lot of clocks.There seems to be one in every room.
M: My family gave them to me because I have trouble keeping track of time.
Q: What are the man and woman discussing?
14. W: Martha seemed to know just the right thing to say to Bob in order to cheer him up.
M: That’s just like her.
Q: What does the man mean?
15. M: Did you go to the big sale at Spenser’s yesterday?
W: I had to visit my aunt in the hospital.
Q: What does the woman imply about the sale?
16. M: I can’t get this window open. It’s really stuck.
W: Why don’t you try using this screwdriver and see if that works?
Q: What does the woman mean?
17. W: Gary, did you turn in your locker key?
M: No, I got Sam to do it.
Q: What does Gary say about the key?
18. M: I hope you can understand my reasons for deciding to leave, Mrs.Harrison.
W: Do I have to remind you that we have invested a lot of time and money in your career here?
Q: How did Mrs.Harrison respond?
Now you’ll hear two long conversations.
Conversation One
W: What a day! I’m exhausted.
M: Well it’s not over yet.
W: Yeah, but it’s over for me. I have to go back home and be there when the kids get home.
M: Oh, that’s right. I have to go back to the office. My lawyer is waiting there to talk about a contract dispute we have with one of our clients. How long does it usually take you to get home from here?
W: It depends on traffic. Sometimes I can get home within half an hour. I should be home today around 5 pm.
M: It’s so convenient that your office is so close to the fourth ring road. I sometimes have to fight traffic for an hour just to get to the third ring.
W: I know. Hey, will you get home tonight in time to watch "That’s Incredible!"?
M: I hope so. That’s my favorite program. I love all those weird things people do.
W: I’ll be watching it too.Well if your meeting goes too late,give me a call and I’ll record it.
M: Thanks. I may do that. I might have to miss it tonight if my boss decides on our business trip to Shanghai tomorrow. Then I’ll have to stay later to get ready.
W: Oh I hate going to Shanghai.
W: It’s not that bad. I would like to know earlier, however.
