Q: Read the below conversation.  Fisher: Ah, good morning, Ms. Ross, do come in.  Ross: Hello, Mr. Fisher. Nice to see you.  Fisher: Face to face instead of on the phone, what? Haha. How are you?  Ross: Fine, thanks, very well.  Fisher: Oh, do sit down. Would you like some coffee?  Ross: Oh, yes please, black.  Fisher: Here you are.  Ross: Thanks. Well, how's it all going?  Fisher: Oh, not too bad, we're just about to open a branch in New Zealand.  Fisher: Oh! ... I'm hoping to--if I can justify it to the marketing director! How's your little boy, has he started school yet?  Ross: Oh, yes, he's in the second year now.  Fisher: What, already? Doesn't time fly! Is he enjoying it?  Ross: Very much, it's much more fun than being home!  Fisher: Haha. Well, I suppose we'd better make a start. Shall we get down to business?  Ross: Right. First of all can I confirm the time and date of the presentation? It's Saturday 24 October in the morning. What time exactly?  Fisher: Well, on the invitations we've sent out we've said that the presentation itself will start at 11 and go on till 12:30.  Ross: So you'll need the room from about 10 till 2. Would you like us to serve coffee beforehand?  Fisher: Yes, yes--and drinks and snacks at the end.  Ross: Better to have buffet lunch?  Fisher: No, I... people who are invited won't be expecting a free lunch. They might think that's overdoing it. They'll want to get back to their families, as it's Saturday.  Ross: All right, the normal pre-lunch snack buffet will be what you need--that's basically the same as what you had last February.  Fisher: Oh, that'll be fine.  Ross: OK, well, we'll charge for the room, coffee and snack buffet at the standard rate less 15%, as we agreed. And we'll charge for the drinks served on a pro-rata basis.  Fisher: Free, fine, yes.  Ross: What type of... um.., equipment, furniture would you like?  Fisher: Well, let's have.., um... four.., no, no... five tables for our display. Er... we'll bring our own stands. Now, there's an overhead projector and sound system already in the room, I...  What would the listener say?
A: Fisher: Well, in that case, I suppose...

Question: Read the below conversation.  Brenda: Well, what's on?  Brenda: Well, hmm. There is a reality show on at 7:00 on channel 5.  Paul: Nah, you know I don't like reality shows. I mean, they usually show people doing crazy things like, you know, eating live fish or swimming in a pool full of snakes. I don't get into that.  Brenda: Okay. Well, how about watching a documentary on the life of panda bears in the wild?  Paul: Personally, I'd rather watch something with a little bit more action and suspense.  Brenda: Well, then. Ah, here's something. Do you want to watch a rerun of Star Wars?  Paul: Nah, I've seen it a zillion times. I'd like to see something different.  Brenda: Okay, let's see here. Oh, how about this? On channel 2 at 9:00, there's a home improvement show about fixing anything around the house. We do have a few things that you could repair in the bathroom ...  Paul: Fixing things? Uh, boy, I'm beat. I think I'm going to hit the sack.  Brenda: You're going to bed?  Paul: Yeah. I have to get up early tomorrow ...  Brenda: ... and then you're going to fix the bathroom?  Paul: Good night.  Brenda: Okay. Too bad, though. There's a basketball game on right now, but ... but I guess you can catch the score in tomorrow's newspaper.  Paul: Oh, okay. I'll stay up and keep you company while I ... I mean, you ... I mean, WE watch the game.  What would the listener say?
Answer: Brenda: I thought you'd change your mind. I'll get the popcorn.

input: Please answer the following: Read the below conversation.  M: Hey, Karen, you are not really reading it, are you?  W: Pardon?  M: The book! You haven't turned the page in the last ten minutes.  W: No, Jim, I suppose I haven't. I need to get through it, though, but I keep drifting away.  M: So it doesn't really hold your interest?  W: No, not really. I wouldn't bother with it, to be honest, but I have to read it for a seminar. I'm at a university.  M: It's a labor of labor then rather than a labor of love.  W: I should say, I don't like Dickens at all really, the author, indeed, I am starting to like the whole course less and less.  M: It's not just the book, it's the curse as well?  W: Yeah, in a way, although the curse itself isn't really that bad, a lot of it is pretty good, in fact, and the lecturer is fine, as to me, I suppose, you see, I want to do philosophy rather than English, but my parents took me out of it.  M: So the courses are OK as such, it's just that had if been left to you, you would choose a different one.  What would the listener say?
++++++++++
output: W: Oh, they had my best interest and heart of course, my parents, they always do, don't they? They believe that my job prospect would be pretty limited with the degree of philosophy. Plus, they give me a really generous allowance, but I am beginning to feel that I'm wasting my time and their money. They would be so disappointed though if I told them I was quitting.
