Correct Answer: Whether to join a local volleyball league.
Why this is correct: Speaker A mentions a flyer about a community volleyball league. They talk about schedule, skill level, cost, and finally decide to join. All talk is about deciding if they should join.
Tips: Focus on what they talk about most, not small details.
Why the other options are wrong:
- Ways to save money in Milton.: They mention money only to say the cost is reasonable. They do not discuss saving money in Milton.
- Sports they played in high school.: They only say they have not played since high school. They do not talk about past sports in detail.
- Their busy work schedules.: They mention their schedule briefly. The main focus is not busy work schedules.
Correct Answer: On Wednesday evenings.
Why this is correct: Speaker B asks about the schedule. Speaker A clearly says Wednesdays at seven. That tells you the day and time.
Tips: When you hear a schedule, remember the exact day and time.
Why the other options are wrong:
- On Friday nights.: Friday nights are never mentioned in the conversation.
- On Sunday afternoons.: Sunday afternoons are not discussed at all.

Correct Answer: Sixty dollars for the whole season.
Why this is correct: Speaker B asks about the cost. Speaker A says it is sixty dollars per person for the whole season. This matches the answer exactly.

Correct Answer: It offers exercise and a chance to meet people.
