16. W: Professor Clark, I was wondering if you would consider giving me an extensionon my paper. I just got back on campus yesterday from hospital.
M: Well, under the circumstances, I can’t see how I can deny your request.
Q: What does Professor Clark say he will do?
17. W: The drama club is holding auditions for their play, it’s a musical. What do you think?
M: To tell you the truth, I don’t really act or sing, but thanks for thinking of me.
Q: What does the man mean?
18.M: I know I ought to call home, but I’ve got a plane to catch and I’m already late.
W: Well, I know you have to hurry, but it’ll only take a minute.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man to do?
Conversation One:
W: Just now I’ve covered all the details I can think of about tomorrow’s English speech contest. I am really looking forward to the best performance from each and every one of you. Oh, one last thing, if you have any question, please feel free to ask now. Or you can come to my office right after. John, do you have any question? You seem a little confused.
M: Yes, professor. I am thinking about strategies to cope with the impromptu speech part. In the real contest, do I have time to prepare for the topic?
W: Oh, if that’s what you are worrying about, don’t be then, because each contestant will be given 15 minutes to get prepared. Technically, it’s not impromptu. Well, the thing is---if you can win the contest and then you will have a chance to represent our university and advance to the next level, for example, the national semi-final. National competitions won’t give you any time to prepare. It’s all spontaneous. So the one we have tomorrow is comparatively easier.
M: Oh, 15 minutes, but the time doesn’t seem enough for me. Usually, it takes half an hour for me to come up with satisfactory speeches.
W: Yes, John, time can be a problem, not just for you but for everybody else. It’s fair competition, though.
M: So what do we do in the preparation time?
W: Well, I guess your strategy is to figure out your stance first and think of reasons and evidence to support your argument. Try to be substantial and convincing. Empty talk won’t do you any good. A large part of what judges look for is the content of your speech.
M: So I guess I am going to substantial then. Thank you for your advice, professor. See you tomorrow.
W: See you. Good luck!

Conversation Two
M: Hi, Serena. Why don't you sit down and watch this movie with me? It only started about 15 minutes ago.
W: Oh, Ok. I have always been a movie fan since I was young. What the movie is about?
M: Never can tell. Come on, sit down and watch!
W: But this movie looks scary! Why is that guy's complexion so pale? Why do his eyes look like they're about to pop out? And why is there so much blood everywhere?
M: I'm not exactly sure what's going on either. I think this group of friends decided to travel to the countryside during their spring break. They end up at this old farmhouse, and apparently there are these zombies that show up at nighttime. I guess it's just your typical horror movie plotline.
W: I hate scary movies! In fact, I hate all violent movies, and I especially hate "jump scenes," when something pops up on the screen suddenly or when there's a sudden loud noise. So basically, watching a horror movie is my worst nightmare.
M: To be honest, I don't like horror movies that much either, but sometimes they can be pretty thrilling. And it's fun to watch with a pretty girl, too, because then you can put your arm around her to comfort her when she gets scared.
W: I see what your plan is. Well, sorry to disappoint you, Den, but I think I'd better get going!
