  11.M: Do you have a larger size for this shirt?
  W: I'll check, but...to tell you the truth, I think this one’s right for you.
  Q: What does the woman mean?
  12.M: Oh, I’m sorry, I just realized that I forgot to bring the tape recorder you lent me. I left it back in my dorm.
  W: That’s all right. I won’t need it until tonight. As long as I’ve got it by then, it’ll be fine.
  Q: What does the woman imply?
  13.W: I’m thinking of getting a new pantsuit to wear to James’ wedding.
  M: I just hope that my old suit still fits. You know how I feel about shopping.
  Q: What does the man imply?
  14.M: What’s my share of the bill? $18.50? That can’t be right! I only had a salad for dinner.
  W: Don’t get excited. Let me check it out.
  Q: What will the woman probably do next?
  15.W: I’d like to enroll in the free seminar you advertised in the newspaper. I mean the one on managing your personal finances.
  M: Okay. Now the ad said that you have to have a saving’s account at our bank to be eligible. Do you have one here?
  Q: What does the man want to know?
  16.W: Tomorrow we are having our first test in my history class. I’m really worried about it. You’ve taken one of Dr. Parker’s tests, haven’t you? I hear they're impossible to pass.
  M: I don’t know who you’ve been talking to. My experience was just the opposite.
  Q: What does the man imply?
  17.W: What’s the problem, Paul? You really look panicked.
  M: I am speaking to a group of high school students about engineering this afternoon, but I have no idea how I am going to simplify some of the concepts for them.
  Q: What is the man’s problem?
  18.M: I haven’t turned on my air-conditioner at all this summer.
  W: That’s surprising, considering how hot it’s been lately.
  Q: What does the woman find surprising?
  Now you will have two long conversations.
