Tips: Focus on the main topic, not small side details.

Why the other options are wrong:

• How coworkers from accounting choose lunch spots.: They only briefly mention accounting coworkers. The talk is not about how coworkers choose lunch spots.
• The best Vietnamese restaurants in Canada.: They mention Vancouver once, but they are not ranking restaurants in Canada.
• Problems with public transit in Toronto.: Public transit is only mentioned as a detail about walking by. It is not the main topic.

Correct Answer: Past experiences with disappointing pho.

Why this is correct: Speaker A says new places can be hit or miss. They remember an overly salty broth from last month. This shows worry from a bad past experience.

Tips: When you hear a worry, connect it to past events.

Why the other options are wrong:

• The restaurant might close early.: No one talks about closing early. This idea is never mentioned.
• It is too far from the office.: The restaurant is on Spadina Avenue. Distance is not a concern.
• The food portions may be too small.: Speaker B says portions are generous. Small portions are not a worry.

Correct Answer: Most dishes are reasonably priced for lunch.

Why this is correct: Speaker B explains the bowls cost around $14. This sounds fair for lunch. They also say portions are generous.

Tips: Price questions often include exact numbers.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Only small bowls are available at a lower price.: They do not talk about small bowls only. Bowl size is not limited.
• There is a discount for office workers.: No discount for office workers is mentioned.
• Prices are higher on weekends.: There is no talk about higher weekend prices.

Correct Answer: Speaker A has other commitments during lunch.

Why this is correct: Speaker A says today might be tight. They need to finish a report and meet their manager. This stops them from going right away.

Tips: Timing answers often come from excuses or conflicts.

Why the other options are wrong:

• They forgot to bring their bank cards.: They say the restaurant is cashless, but they have cards. This is not the reason.
• The restaurant is expected to be too crowded next week.: They want to avoid opening weekend, not next week being crowded.
• They want to wait until the weather improves.: Weather is mentioned earlier, but not as a reason to wait.

Correct Answer: They shift from hesitant to mildly enthusiastic.

Why this is correct: At first, Speaker A is unsure and worried. By the end, they say they are looking forward to it. This shows a positive change.

Tips: For attitude questions, compare the first and last feelings.

Why the other options are wrong:

• They become more doubtful about the food quality.: They do not become more doubtful. Their worry decreases.
• They decide it is not worth trying at all.: They never decide to skip the restaurant forever.
• They feel annoyed about the service delays.: They accept slow service and are not annoyed.
