AUDIO TRANSCRIPTS OF CONVERSATION IN THIS TEST
M: Hey, Mary, do you have a minute?
W: Sure, Michael, what’s up?
M: I have a problem and I need to talk it over I was hoping I could get your advice.
W: Oh, OK.
M: So, I'm supposed to be in a team debate this weekend, with my debate club. But the thing is, I got a last-minute invitation to attend a national debate conference, and I'd really love to go.
W: Hmm, That's tough. So, I guess your first option is to just go to your team debate. I mean, you don’t want to let your team down, right? And I know you've talked about how you're friends with all of your team members. They might be mad if you don't go to the debate.
M: Right . . . but I'm just so eager to go to this conference. I mean, it is a really good opportunity to learn more about debating.
W: Well . . . in that case, perhaps you should go to the conference. Look at it this way: if you’re going to learn a lot, then you could go to the conference, come back, and coach your team members about all of the new things you learned. Then your team might be even better.
M: Good point, but I really do feel like I would be letting my team down, They are really counting on me.
W: Right,
M: See, I just feel like either option is going to disappoint someone.
W: Well, you'll just have to decide whether you want to be the one disappointed or whether you want to risk disappointing your team.
M: I know. I'll think about it. Thanks for the advice.
