Conversation 1

Man: How is your new apartment?

Woman: Good, but it’s very noisy, so I can’t get a good night’s sleep, which is exhausting.

Man: That’s terrible. That would stress me out. Where is it exactly?

Woman: It is near the station, which gets pretty noisy at night.

Man: What about on the weekends?

Woman: It is not much quieter then. There is a night market, which brings in lots of tourists.

Man: I know how you feel. My old workplace, which was near an airport, was always noisy.

Woman: Yeah, there is not much I can do about it now. I just have to deal with it.

Man: Well, hopefully things will turn for the better in the long run.

Woman: Thanks, I hope so.

Conversation 2

Man: What are you looking at?

Woman: This is my new smartwatch, which I am totally addicted to.

Man: It looks high-tech. What does it do?

Woman: It tracks my biometrics, which are immediately analyzed on the app and then displayed on the screen

Man: Oh, really. That sounds cool. How are you doing?

Woman: Not bad. It turns out I am pretty healthy, but it is still hard to interpret all the data.

Man: Those watches are so trendy these days. I want a gadget like that.

Woman: You should get one. There’re lots of fun.

Conversation 3

Man: So, how are things in your department?

Woman: Not good. I have a new role, which I hate.

Man: Oh, what is your new role?

Woman: I am now in charge of assemble line efficiency, which means I must make sure everything is working as efficiently as possible.

Man: That sounds like a role for management.

Woman: It was, but our superior quit unexpectedly, so they gave the job to me.

Man: It sounds like a lot of pressure.

Woman: It is. I am totally stressed right now. 

Conversation 4

Woman: So, how are things going down at the factory?

Man: Well, the new machines, which I told you about last week, are working really well.

Woman: What about the time frame? Can we meet our production deadline?

Man: Well, the new staff, which we just hired last week, should be able to increase production.

Woman: Well, our recent commercial, which has done really well, could mean a strong demand for the product. 

Man: So basically, we need to increase production fast. 

Woman: Yes, you do, which means you will be working a lot of overtime, but I need you to come through on this. 

Man: Well, we have a track record, which you know is pretty good, so I am confident we can do this.

Woman: That’s good to hear. I know I can count on you.
