Q: Read the below conversation.  Susan: Hi. Welcome back to Susan's Gardening Show. I'm Susan, and we're ready to take our next caller. We have Mark from Seattle. Are you still there, Mark?  Mark: Uh. Yeah, but maybe not for long.  Susan: So, how can we help you today?  Mark: Okay. Uh, my wife is really into gardening, and about five years ago, she received a beautiful climbing rose bush ... I think an Agatha Christie [That's a nice one.] from her mother who has passed away. Anyway, the rose plant seems to be on its last leg.  Susan: Really? Nomally, that rose is really quite hardy [I know.], and it's very disease-resistant, too. [I know.]  Mark: Yeah. Well, this situation ISN'T normal. You see about a week ago, I was doing some yard work, and I was using some weed killer [UH-oh.], yeah, to try to get rid of some terrible weeds and ...  Susan: Did you spray the roses?  Mark: Uh, well, not exactly. I set the spray container down near the roses while I was trimming a bush, and the container must have gotten knocked over, and the weed killer soaked into the ground near the roses.  Susan: How much weed killer are you talking about?  Mark: Uh, about six or seven quarts (about six liters or 1.6 gallons), I think. [Oh, that's a lot.] You know, I mean when you put ...  Susan: And the roses? What do they look like now?  Mark: Oh, Dead, real dead. Dead as a doornail dead, but my wife hasn't seen them yet.  Susan: Really? What have you done? Blindfolded her?  Mark: Well, I've kept her away from that side of the house where the roses are, but she is bound to see them at some point.  Susan: Yeah, yeah. You've got a problem.  Mark: I mean, is there anything I can do to revive them?  Susan: Not unless you're a magician.  Mark: Well, can you recommend a quick-growing variety that can take its place?  Susan: Marc. I'm sorry. You've made a mistake ... A big mistake.  Mark: ... except that my wife warned me this could happen ... Oh, man.  Susan: Oh, shoot. Listen. You made a blunder. A big mistake. A really big mistake. But unless your wife goes on vacation...  What would the listener say?
A: Susan: One final word: Hide the weed killer. [But ...] Thanks, Mark. That's all the time we have for now. Let's move on to the next caller.

Q: Read the below conversation.  M: Excuse me, Madam.  W: Yes?  M: Does this bus go to Zhongshan Road?  W: Yes, I think so.  M: Thank you.  What would the listener say?
A: W: You're welcome.

Q: Read the below conversation.  W: Why do we have to walk to the station? And where is it?  M: It's just down that road...I think.  W: Look! There's a policeman! Ask him the way.  M: All right. I'll go and ask him.  W: (pause for 6 seconds) So,what did he say?  M: Well, we have to walk down this road, take the first turning on the left. Then walk until we come to the river and...  W: The river?  M: Yes. It's over there, and there's a bridge. Across the bridge, we will be able to see some road signs which will tell us the way.  W: But how far is it? How long does it take to walk there?  M: About fifteen minutes, if we walk quickly.  W: Fifteen minutes! We may be late for the train. And with these heavy bags, too! I think we ought to take a taxi.  M: Not at this hour. Look at the traffic. It's moving very slowly. We can get there just as quickly on foot.  W: Well, I can't possibly carry this bag any farther.  M: All right. Let me take it, then.  W: Don't be silly. You can't carry two bags at the same time.  M: Yes, I can. The bags aren't that heavy...hmm!  W: You see! They're heavier than you thought!  M: Perhaps it's not such a bad idea after all.  W: What isn't such a bad idea? What do you mean?  What would the listener say?
A: M: Taxi! Taxi!

Q: Read the below conversation.  F: What will the weather be like five hours later?  What would the listener say?
