3---------W: In order to have a meaningful life, you must be ready to give and sacrifice.
M: I agree totally. And I try to remember this every day.
Q: What will be possible if you give and sacrifice according to the woman?
W: Do you think we should give aid to people in need?
M: I think it's the least we should do for them.
Q: What should be done for people in need, according to the man?
M: Believe it or not, my baseball coach taught me a lot about being kind.
W: That really isn't so unusual. After all, it isn't always parents who teach us.
Q: Who taught the man to be kind?
W: Why do you let your little sister cling to you all the time?
M: Since our parents died, she needs me more. I can't push her away.
Q: Why does the little sister need the man more?
W: My mother never complained about hard work in front of the family.
M: Wow, that's something to learn from!
Q: What did the woman's mother never complain about?
W: You've got to meet my father. He's handicapped and he has a lot to share.
M: I'd like to. You just tell me when.
Q: Why should the man meet the woman's father?
M: I saw you talking to your mother at dusk.
W: Yeah, even though she's busy she always finds time to talk to me. That's why I love her so much.
Q: Why does the woman love her mother?
W: Hey, I heard you spend your evenings at the home for the elderly.
M: Some evenings. I'd like to go more, but I don't have time.
Q: How does the man feel about going to the home for the elderly?
W: You are the first person to extend help when I needed it.
M: Don't worry about it. That's what friends are for.
Q: Why does the man tell the woman NOT to worry?
W: My mother never interrupted me while I told her my problems.
M: Sometimes that's the best way to help someone.
Q: What did the mother do to help the woman?
Transcript:
W: I heard a bang on my way to class this morning.
M: Some guy brought a gun to school and tried to shoot someone.
W: You're kidding! Is everyone OK?
M: Yeah. The teacher managed to take the gun from him.
W: Our history teacher?
M: That's the one.
W: He never stops amazing me.
M: He was definitely the right person at the right time. After he hit the student and grabbed the gun, he talked to the boy about his problems. While I was on the phone with the police and the parents, he was holding the student. If I was not mistaken, I thought the student was crying.
W: Did the teacher help the boy solve his problems?
M: I don't think so. The student was clearly bothered by something pretty big. I don't think problems like that can be solved so quickly. But, when the police came to take him away, our teacher told him that he would see him again.
