Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

　　11. M: My leg is still hurting from the fall I had in the basketball match last week. I wonder if I

　　should visit a doctor.

　　W: Well, it could be due to muscle injuries. To play it safe, I think you should.

　　Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?

　　12. M: Thomas is always late when we have a meeting. Maybe one of us should give him a ring

　　each time.

　　W: That’s really annoying. But I’ll volunteer.

　　Q: What will the woman probably do?

　　13. M: The restaurant doesn’t seem to be making ends meet this year. Don’t you think so?

　　W: Yes, but there’s no competitor along this street. So it’s probably worthwhile to keep it

　　running.

　　Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?

　　14. M: Would you like to drink another cup of tea?

　　W: I’d be overdoing it if I had one more.

　　Q: What does the woman mean?

　　15. M: Will you be able to give me the report by tomorrow?

　　W: Well, it still takes time to estimate the budget. But hopefully I will pull everything together.

　　Q: What does the woman imply?

　　16. M: Oh, my god, the soup dried up so fast!

　　W: I told you not to keep the heat on high, didn’t I?

　　Q: What did the woman suggest that the man do?

　　17. M: That’s an awfully bad color for the bedroom.

　　W: Well, that’s the color Tommy and Alice insisted on. You know how hard it is for them to make the same decision.

　　Q: What does the woman imply about Tommy and Alice?

　　18. M: The novel’s been selling like hot cakes since it was launched last month.

　　W: I understand they will be running a second print soon.

　　Q: What can be inferred about the book?

　　Now you’ll hear two long conversations.
