Tips: Follow the named speaker and choose the option that matches the stated purpose, reason or decision.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Finding a treatment for Anna's back pain.: Back pain motivates Anna's concern, but the friends discuss how to begin losing weight rather than choosing a treatment for the pain.
• Choosing dance classes for Martha.: Martha suggests dance classes for Anna as part of her weight-loss plan; they are not choosing classes for Martha.
• Comparing the prices at different gyms.: One gym and its free classes are mentioned. The friends do not compare prices at different gyms.

Correct Answer: She has been having pain in her back.

Why this is correct: Anna says she has been in pain and having trouble with her back muscles. This directly supports the health-related reason for her worry.

Tips: Follow the named speaker and choose the option that matches the stated purpose, reason or decision.

Why the other options are wrong:

• She thinks the gym classes will be too expensive.: Free dance classes and demonstrations are mentioned later, but Anna does not say that cost is why she has been worried.
• She does not know which doctor to consult.: Anna has already consulted her doctor and reports the doctor's suggestion. She does not express uncertainty about choosing a doctor.
• She has been unable to arrange a ride to the gym.: Anna asks Martha to pick her up after they make a plan. No earlier failure to arrange transport is given as the reason for her worry.

Correct Answer: Join her gym so they can work out together.

Why this is correct: Martha suggests joining the gym she attends so they can go together. The shared gym and exercising together are both stated explicitly.

Tips: Follow the named speaker and choose the option that matches the stated purpose, reason or decision.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Start with dance classes at home.: Martha describes dance classes at the gym, not classes at home.
• Wait until her back pain is gone before going to the gym.: Martha invites Anna to start the next day; she does not suggest waiting for the back pain to disappear.
• Look for a gym with different trainers.: Martha recommends her own gym and the trainers she knows, not finding different trainers elsewhere.

Correct Answer: They make losing weight more enjoyable.

Why this is correct: Martha calls dancing a good way to lose weight and have fun at the same time. That supports making weight loss more enjoyable; it does not establish the stronger claims in the other options.

Tips: Follow the named speaker and choose the option that matches the stated purpose, reason or decision.

Why the other options are wrong:

• They can replace all her other gym workouts.: Dancing is offered as another good way to lose weight. Martha does not say it should replace all other workouts.
• They will cure her back pain.: Martha says dancing can help with weight loss, not that it will cure Anna's back pain.
• They are only for people starting at the gym.: Martha does not restrict the classes to beginners or people just starting at the gym.

Correct Answer: 7 a.m.

Why this is correct: Anna explicitly says she will be ready at seven a.m., after Martha proposes going the next day at seven. The a.m. confirmation resolves the time as morning.

Tips: Follow the named speaker and choose the option that matches the stated purpose, reason or decision.

Why the other options are wrong:

• 6 a.m.: Anna confirms seven, not six, in the morning.
• 6 p.m.: Neither six nor the evening matches Anna's seven a.m. confirmation.
• 7 p.m.: Seven is the right hour, but a.m. means morning rather than evening.
