11. M: Good news, I’m not going to have surgery after all. The doctor says I can start working out again soon and maybe play football like before in a few weeks.

W: That’s terrific. It would be great if you could get back in shape in time for the World Cup.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

12. M: I really need to make some extra money. You know I’ve practically spent my entire budget for this semester.

W: Why not check out the new cafeteria at Market Street? I think there are still a few openings suitable for seniors like you.

Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?

13. M: I hear John left his cat in your care while he’s on vacation abroad. How are you getting along with it?

W: Well, it never comes when I call it. It spills its food and sheds all over the place. I can’t wait till John gets back.

Q: How does the woman find the cat?

14. W: Hello, Professor White, I got my grade in the mail this morning, but I think there might be a mistake in my mark.

M: Yeah, I’ve got several calls just like yours. There must be a problem with the computing system. It should be straightened out in a couple of hours.

Q: What does the man mean?

15. M: Professor Johnson, last night when I was putting the finishing touches on my paper, a computer failure completely wiped out my files, do you think I can have another day to retype it?

W: I’m sorry, Rod. I’m leaving for a conference tomorrow and I’ll be away two weeks. I suppose you could send me an E-copy.

Q: Why does the man say he can’t submit his assignment on time?
