Listen to a conversion between two students outside a university dining hall
W:Excuse me. Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?
M:No, I guess not.
W:Great! This is for a student council report. We want to find out what students think of the campus' food service. The results will tell us what kind of changes to push for.
M:I think everyone has pretty strong opinions about that.
W:Yeah. That's one thing I found out already. Ok, first, how often do you eat in the cafeteria?
M:Almost everyday, I've got a meal contract.
W:And do you usually ear here at Anderson hall?
M:Yeah, I live next door.
W:And you mention that you have a meal contract, is that right?
M:Uh-huh! For breakfast and dinner, Monday to Saturday.
W:What's your general impression of the food here?
M:Well, people complain a lot, but basically I think it's ok. The vegetables are usually overcooked, but I mean they have to feed hundreds of people here. You are not going to get something freshly prepared just for you.
W:What if I just put down generally satisfactory, would like more fresh vegetables, ok?
M:Sure.
W:So you think the other things like soup and dessert are okay?
M:Yeah, that's about right.
W:Is there anything you like to change about the cafeteria?
M:Yes. The hours. Sometimes it's a real rush for me to get back here before 6:30.
