Problem: Given the question: M: Well, I was born in Springfield, Missouri, and grew up in Kansas. I didn't come from a family with wealth or position, but I did manage to get a master's degree in fine arts.  W: When did you first start to make art? And what was the turning point in your life that made you an artist?  M: I always liked drawing as early as I can remember, so right from then, I knew what I was going to be: an artist.  W: What is it that always inspires you to create?  M: Nature is the biggest inspiration. I'm always inspired by things of beauty and harmony.  What was said before this conversation?

W: Hello, everyone. Welcome to our program. Today, we are fortunate to have a special guest with us. Some of you may have heard of him before. He's an artist. His works have received many prizes and have been shown in over one hundred exhibitions across the country - Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, to name just a few. His name is Chris Cucksy. So Chris, tell us a bit about yourself.
input question: M: At about 8 o'clock.  W: What did you do right after you entered your flat?  M: Well, I washed my hands and then watched sports news.  W: When did you have supper?  M: At about a quarter to nine, I guess.  W: Did you stay at home all evening?  M: Yes.  W: But your friend says that he found you several times between 8 and 9. But you didn't answer.  M: Well, I think I was in the bath at that time.  W: No, you weren't. You were not even at home last night. You robbed a bank in James Street.  What was said before this conversation????

Answer: W: I'm afraid I can't show you the apartment at the moment, because the tenant is still living in it. It's really a lovely place, with a big kitchen and a sunny window, for only two hundred dollars a month.
Q: M: Yes, nurse, I think so. I followed the hospital's advice, and I've only brought a few belongings with me.  W: Good, you can see the reasons why we ask you to do that, the cupboard is really very small.  M: Yes, of course. They are only afternoon from 2:30 to 4:30 and in the evening from 7:00 to 8:00, but remember that only two people can see you at the same time.  M: I see. What other rules are there?  W: Yes. We start pretty early. We wake you at 6 o'clock and breakfast is at 8 o'clock, lunch is at noon, there is tea at 3:30 and supper at 6 o'clock.  M: Oh, that's very different from what I have been used to. You'd better tell me the rest of the rules here.  W: Yes. Well, you can see the no smoking sign, we don't allow smoking in the wards, and the same goes for alcohol. However, if you do need to smoke, there are special lounges.  M: Oh, I don't smoke, so it doesn't affect me.  W: Good.  What was said before this conversation?
A: W: So Mr. Brown, this is your bed, and as you can see, there are three other beds in the ward. Have you got everything you need?
