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 can't 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. I'd also be happy to pick up anything you need。
W: Wow, I don't like to let anyone else to drive my car. Tell you what, why don't we go together?
Q: What does the woman mean?

W: I'm sorry you feel that way. But my mother insists that he come。
Q: What does the woman imply?
17. W: You're taking a course with Professor Johnson. What's 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?
