Short conversations

　　11. W: Just imagine we have to finish reading 300 pages before Monday, how can the professor expect us to do it in such a short time?

　　M: Yeah, but what troubles me is that I cant find the book in the library or in the university bookstore.

　　Q: what does the man mean?

　　12. M: Do you think I could borrow your car to go grocery shopping? The supermarkets outside the city are so much cheaper. Id also be happy to pick up anything you need.

　　W: Wow, I dont like to let anyone else to drive my car. Tell you what, why dont we go together?

　　Q: What does the woman mean?

　　13. M: Forgive the mess in here. We had a party last night. There were a lot of people and they all brought food

　　W: Yeah, I can tell. Well, I guess its pretty obvious what youll be doing most of today.

　　Q: What does the woman think the man will do?

　　14. W: What time would suit you for the first round talks with John Smith?

　　M: Well, you know my schedule. Other than this Friday, one day is as good as the next.

　　Q: What does the man mean?

　　15. W: I was so angry yesterday. My biology teacher did not even let me explain why I missed the field trip. He just wouldnt let me pass.

　　M: That doesnt seem fair. Id feel that way too if I were you.

　　Q: What does the man imply?

　　16. M: I really cant stand the way David controls the conversation all the time. If hes going to be at your Christmas party, I just wont come.

　　W: Im sorry you feel that way. But my mother insists that he come.

　　Q: What does the woman imply?

　　17. W: Youre taking a course with Professor Johnson. Whats your impression so far?

　　M: Well, many students can hardly stay awake in his class without first drinking a cup of coffee.

　　Q: What does the man imply?

　　18. W: Have you ever put a computer together before?

　　M: No, never. But I think if we follow these instructions exactly, we wont have much trouble.

　　Q: What are the speakers going to do?
