Part A
1． M: I think I'll run down to the bookstore and get a few things
W: But aren't we going to meet Shirley at the student center? She is expecting us at 4. And it's
almost that now.
2． W: Congratulations! I heard about your new job.
M: Thanks. Nearly perfect for me. It's really interesting. The hours are ideal and it's an easy walk
from home. If only the pay were half as good as everything else.
3． W: Do you know anyone who is driving to the conference in Boston next weekend?
M: Pete is. I think he has room for another person.
4． M: Did I hear you say you are using the newspaper in your political science class? I was wondering
if when you finish it, you can pass it onto me?
W: Well, we do use it in class. But I always read the copy in the library.
5． W: I noticed you haven't been getting along well with your roommate lately.
M: You got that right. And it's going to be a long time before I feel comfortable with him again.
6． W: How did you ever manage to get through all 1000 pages of that new spy thriller?
M: It took a while. But once I had started it, I couldn't put it down.
7． M: Hi, XXX, how are you doing? I heard you had an operation over the spring break.
W: Yes, XXX, thanks for asking. I was pretty much out of condition for a few weeks. Bit finally I'm
back in my feet again.
8． W: How about a little tennis? Say Saturday or Sunday?
M: It sounds great. I could use a good workout. It seems like all I have been doing lately is sitting in
front of this computer.
9． W: Did you read today's newspaper? I heard there is something about a new wonder drug.
M: I did read an article about medical researchers being on the verge of a major breakthrough.
10. M: Where have you been? We were supposed to meet at the library half an hour ago.
W: Yeah, I'm really sorry. I guess I just lost track of the time.
11. M: I'm sorry. But you can't take your camera inside. You'll have to leave it here and pick it up after
the concert.
W: Well, I guess it's too late to take it back to the car. Please be careful with it. It belongs to my
roommate. She'll never forgive me if anything happens to it.

12. M: The application instructions say to enclose a check or money order for twenty dollars. But I
don't have a checking account.
W: You can just pick up a money order at the post office.
13. M: You know, I really think you should run for class president. Everybody knows you and likes
you. And you got some great ideas.
W: Thanks. I have thought about it. I'm taking six classes and working a part-time job. That's about
all I can handle right now.
14. M: I'm having a few friends over for a lunch tomorrow. It'll be great if you can join us.
W: I doubt I'll be able to make it. My brother is leaving for Chicago tomorrow afternoon. And I
promised to give him a ride to the airport.
15. W: My cousin Lisa said she mailed me some books. But they never came.
M: Well, you just moved into a new dormitory. She probably sent them out before she had your
new address.
16. M: Excuse me. Do you have the time?
W: Actually I'm not positive. But I'd say it's right around noon.
17. W: My dinner tastes kind of funny.
M: Then why don't you have the waiter bring you something else.
18. W: Did Mary meet you at the airport yesterday?
M: Yes. But she sure got tired waiting for my flight to get in. We circled
the airport for three hours.
19. W: About this survey on the quality of life in the dorm. I feel sort of awkward because, well, I'm not
rally comfortable here. Are you sure you want me to fill out this survey form?
M: It's people like you who can help us target areas for improvement.
20. M: I'm the only one in class who didn't sign up for the biology trip. Slogging through a swamp in the
rain can't gun fun.
W: Nope. But I've got the feeling your classmates will come back knowing some things you won't
know.
21. W: What are you watching?
M: Some boring comedy show. But the Channel 6 news is on in a couple of minutes.
22. M: Excuse me, Professor Jones. I was absent from the first class and I heard that's when you

handed out the course outline. Would you have an extra copy?
W: I don't have anyone with me. There are a few left in my office. Why don't you stop by after
class.
23. W: So, how did Jason's presentation go?
M: It wasn't bad. But the topic he chose last time was more interesting.
24. M: Would you happen to know somebody who'd like to buy my car?
W: Well, I don't know of anyone off hand. But I'll check with some of my friends.
25. W: Do you know where the nearest bus stop is?
M: Actually I'm pretty new to the area.
26. M: Did you hear the weather report says we are going to get at least a foot of snow tomorrow?
W: That much! That's incredible. I can't wait to get outside and play in it.
27. W: Growing up we never had a TV. Even now I'm not used to watching it much.
M: Well, it's kind of like reading. Some things you find are great, But a lit are real waste of time.
You have to pick and choose.
28. W: I live this hat. And look, it's on sale.
M: Yes, but it doesn't do much for you. What about the green one? It's a little expensive. But it
really looks great on you.
29. M: That's a really interesting shirt. Must be from your vacation.
W: No. But you are close. My sister brought it back from Hawaii for me.
30. W: Your company isn't moving to the west coast after all.
M: Well, not for the time being. But I've been looking into other employment opportunities here
anyway. Just in case.
Part B
31-34
W: ok, last night you were supposed to read an article about human bones. Are there any comments
about it?
M: well, to begin with, I was surprised to find out there were so much going on in bones. I always
assumed they were pretty lifeless.
W: Well, that's an assumption many people make. But the fact is bones are made of dynamic living tissue
that requires continuous maintenance and repair.

M: Right. That's one of the things I found so fascinating about the article the way the bones repair
themselves.
W: Ok. So can you tell us how the bones repair themselves.
M: Sure. See, there are two groups of different types of specialized cells in the bone that work together to
do it. The first group goes to an area of the bone that needs repair. This group of cells produce the
chemical that actually breaks down the bone tissue, and leaves a hole in it. After that the second group of
specialized cells comes and produce the new tissue that fills in the hole that was made by the first group.
W: Very good. This is a very complex process. In fact, the scientists who study human bones don't
completely understand it yet. They are still trying to find out how it all actually works. Specifically,
because sometimes after the first group of cells leaves a hole in the bone tissue, for some reason, the
second group doesn't completely fill in the hole. And this can cause real problems. It can actually lead to
a disease in which the bone becomes weak and is easily broken.
M: ok, I get it. So if the scientists can figure out what makes the specialized cells work, maybe they can
find a way to make sure the second group of cells completely fills the hole in the bone tissue every time.
That'll prevent the disease from every occurring.

35-38
M: Hi Diana, mind if I sit down?
W: Not at all, Jerry. How have you been?
