Questions 1 to 3 are based on the following conversation.
W: Hi, Zach.
M: Hey, Lisa. What are you doing here?
W: I work here on weekends. How come you decided to come to the travel agency? Planning a trip?
M: Yeah, well, you know our breaks are coming, and I need a quick getaway trip somewhere.
W: Well, someone's got the money to burn. But [2] we hardworking students need a break too.
M: I'm going to tell you up-front Lisa. It's not what you think. I'm on a tight budget like everyone else here but I've got to get out of this town for a while.
W: where to?
M: Florida, maybe. I'll go to see a Miami Dolphin football game.
W: And [1] you need a flight for next week? Well, you are the one who leaves things to the last minute but hmm… let me take a look in the screen... United got one to Miami but a bit expensive so let me see if there's anything else available.
M: Preferably below $400 for return, can you swing it?
W: One by Phoenix Air for $350. [3]It's a small plane though. Are you sure you don't want me to check again for other flights. It would only take a second.
M: No, that sounds within my range.
W: All fight. Just let me phone in and confirm the times.

Questions 4 to 7 are based on the following conversation.
M: I'm sorry I'm late, Rose.
W: That's all fight, Vic. My house isn't that easy to find. Many of my friends have trouble to find the way when they come for the first time. But you know, you wouldn't have gotten lost if you had a "smart" car.
M: A smart car? I have never heard of that before. What's a smart car?
W: [41I just read a magazine article about some new technology that can make a car smart. One device is a computerized map display/ and a synthesized voice. You must enter the address where you want to go, and the voice tells you how to get there, street by street.
M: Hey, that's just like my brother. [5]He never gets lost, and he's always telling me the best route. So what else will a smart car be able to do?
W: Well, [6] the article said that they will be equipped with radar warning systems that will warn drivers if they're getting too close to other cars with an alarm signal, and they will even put on the brakes if the drivers don't.
M: Tell me, Rose, will these cars be smart enough to fill themselves up with gas?
W: Not that I know of. Why do you ask?
M: Well, I'm not late because I got lost--[7] I'm late because I ran out of gas on the way over here.

Questions 8 to 10 are based on the following conversation.
W: What do you plan to order?
M: I think I just have a salad and a cup of tea.
W: Is that all?
M: Yes, I'm on a diet. My doctor told me that I should lose some weight because I'm too heavy--and that's not healthy.
W: How do you feel?
M: [8] I feel fine. In fact, I've never felt better. Furthermore, some of my old clothes would fit me if I lost about 40 pounds.
W: How long will that take you?
M: Well, I've just started my diet, so it may take me six months to get down to my proper weight.
W: Do you plan to eat nothing but salads for 6 months?
M: No, [9] I'11 be able to eat fruit and certain meats and dairy products. But, most important, I should not eat anything containing sugar.
W: [10] Then you probably won't want to try the delicious pastries they serve here; I know the head cook is an excellent pastry chef.
M: Now that you mention it, I may have two or three of these delicious hot rolls. I usually have five or six.
