Problem: Read the below conversation.  M: Alice, I want to buy you a watch. Which one do you like?  What would the listener say?

A: F: I like the red one, Dad.


Problem: Read the below conversation.  Daughter: Dad. You love me, don't you?  Father: Of course, I do. Why do you ask ... Ah, what's on your mind?  Daughter: Well, I saw this great offer for a free cell phone here in the newspaper, and ...  Father: Free? Nothing's ever free.  Daughter: Well, the phone is free ... after a $50 mail-in rebate.  Father: Ah, so that's the catch. And why do you need a cell phone anyway?  Daughter: Dad. All my friends have one, and I can use it to call you in case the car breaks down.  Father: Ah, I don't know. There are always so many fees.  Daughter: But the monthly charge for this service is only $29.99, with 1,000 free weekday minutes nationwide, and unlimited weekend minutes. Plus, unlimited, anytime minutes for anyone using the same service.  Father: I don't know.  Daughter: And you can roll over the extra minutes to the next month instead of just losing them. What do you think of that?  Father: Yeah, but what is the term of the service agreement?  Daughter: It's only for six months.  Father: But what if you cancel early?  Daughter: Um ... Ah, there's a cancellation fee of $200, but with ...  Father: Two hundred bucks!  Daughter: Yeah, but you won't have to worry about me while I'm driving the new car.  Father: New car? What new car?  Daughter: The new car you'll need to buy so I can use the cell phone. I mean, what's it gonna look like if I'm using a cell phone in our old lemon.  What would the listener say?

A: Father: Teenagers. What'll they think of next?


Problem: Read the below conversation.  M: Excuse me, would you please tell me when the next flight to Los Angeles is?  What would the listener say?

A: W: Sure. The next direct flight to Los Angeles is two hours from now, but if you do not mind transferring at San Francisco you can board now.


Problem: Read the below conversation.  M: We seem to be having this conversation over and over again.  W: You're fight.  M: Look, I know how you feel about my smoking. You don't have to tell me every day.  W: I'm sorry. I worry about you.  M: Let's be honest. There's always going to be a reason. After you graduate, it's going to be hard to find a job, then there will be the stress from just starting a job.  M: OK, I get your point. It's just so hard. You don't really understand because you have never smoked.  W: You need some help. Why don't you go to a doctor?  M: You mean a psychiatrist?  W: No, I don't. I mean a general practitioner. Maybe you can get a patch, or some pills, well, I don't know, something to help you with the withdrawal.  M: Really, I believe I can quit on my own. But I'll think about it. I will.  W: All fight. I won't mention it for a week. Then I want to know your decision. Because if you don't get some help, I need to rethink our plans.  M: You mean you'd break our engagement over this? I can't believe it!  What would the listener say?

A:
W: I don't know.
