Conversation 1 - Lunch Buffet


Man: How was the lunch buffet?

Woman: It was alright, but it consisted mostly of snack dishes, most of which were fried and greasy.

Man: Didn’t they have any fruits or vegetables?

Woman: Yes, there were some fruits and some salads, none of which looked fresh however. 

Man: It doesn’t sound like a good place to eat. 

Woman: No, it’s not. I won’t be going there tomorrow. 

Man: Well, there are lots of restaurants near the hotel, some of which look very nice. 

Woman: Yes, I look forward to trying one tomorrow. 


Conversation 2 - Hiring Process


Man: How is the hiring process going? 

Woman: Great. We’ve received many good candidates, most of whom are very qualified. 

Man: How are things looking for the IT department? We really need some good software developers. 

Woman: Things are looking good. We have several applicants, all of whom have excellent programming skills. 

Man: Great. When does the second round of interviews begin?

Woman: We have several scheduled next week, all of which will be help online. 

Man: Great. Please keep me in the loop. 

Woman: I will. 


Conversation 3 - Police Report


Woman: Hello, I heard that you wanted to report a crime.

Man: Yes, some teens came into my store and stole some food and beverages. 

Woman: OK, how many of them were there?

Man: There were four teenagers, all of whom I had seen before. I think they live near here.

Woman: OK, what did you see them take?

Man: They took some candy from over there and some sodas in the back, none of which they paid for.

Woman: OK, I can take a report, but if the crime is less than 100 dollars, we can’t do anything. 

Man: Well, that’s unfortunate. If this happens again, I might take the law into my own hands.  

Woman: I wouldn’t do that. I recommend you install security cameras, most of which are very affordable and do a good job of deterring crime. 

Man: OK, officer. I’ll consider that. Thanks for your help and have a nice day. 

Woman: Thanks, you, too. 


Conversation 4 - The Lecture


Man: What did you think of the lecture?

Woman: It was pretty boring. It was all classical theories, most of which I already knew.

Man: I agree, although they did make some good points about modern economics.

Woman: Yes, but his ideas are based on the views of ancient economists, most of whom never lived in the digital era. 

Man: so, you don’t think classical economic theory applies to modern times?

Woman: No, I don’t. I think a lot of those older economic theories, many of which are over 100 years old, do not hold up today.

Man: Maybe you can write one yourself.

Woman: Funny you should mention that. I am.
