第二部分　對話

ManHave you decided which university you're applying to?

WomanI'm torn between National Taiwan University and a school in Canada. NTU is closer to home and much cheaper, but studying abroad would really improve my English.

ManWhat do your parents think?

WomanThey'd prefer I stay in Taiwan, but they said it's my decision in the end.

Question one: What is the woman trying to decide?

Question two: What do her parents want?

WomanThe printer on our floor is jammed again.

ManI'll call the IT department. In the meantime, you can use the one in the meeting room. It's working fine.

Question: What does the man suggest?

ManExcuse me, I ordered the vegetarian set about forty minutes ago, and it still hasn't arrived.

WomanI'm terribly sorry, sir. The kitchen is extremely busy tonight. Let me check on your order right away, and your dessert will be free of charge.

ManThank you. I appreciate it.

Question four: What is the man's complaint?

Question five: What does the woman offer?

WomanI heard the city is going to turn the old train station into a library and art space.

ManThat's great news. It's been empty for nearly ten years.

WomanSome people want it torn down to build apartments, though. They say the city needs more housing.

ManI understand that, but the building has a lot of history. I'd hate to lose it.

Question six: What will happen to the old train station?

Question seven: What is the man's opinion?

ManDid you watch the game last night?

WomanOnly the first half. I fell asleep before the end. Who won?

ManThe Lions, but only because of a lucky goal in the last minute.

Question: Why doesn't the woman know the result?

WomanI'm thinking about adopting a dog from the animal shelter.

ManThat's wonderful, but have you thought about who will walk it while you're at work?

WomanMy neighbor's son said he'd do it after school for a small fee. And I work from home on Fridays.

ManSounds like you've planned it well.

Question nine: What is the man worried about?

Question ten: How will the woman solve the problem?

ManHow did your job interview go?

WomanBetter than I expected. They asked me to give a short presentation in English, which made me nervous, but I think I did well.

ManWhen will you hear back?

WomanThey said by the end of next week.

Question eleven: What made the woman nervous?

Question twelve: When will she get an answer?

WomanCould you pick up my suit from the dry cleaner's on your way home?

ManSure, but I don't have the ticket.

WomanOh, it's under my name—Chen. They'll find it.

Question: What does the man need in order to pick up the suit?

ManThe traffic on the highway is terrible. We'll never make our flight at this rate.

WomanLet's get off at the next exit and take the airport MRT instead. It only takes about thirty-five minutes from the city.

ManGood idea. We can leave the car at the station parking lot.

Question fourteen: What problem do the speakers have?

Question fifteen: What will they probably do?
