Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 3
For this question, we need to answer whether or not it is true that breakfast begins at 6:30.
Step 2
2 of 3
The key to answering these questions is to listen for two new grammar points we recently learned: ‘てください’; and ‘てはいけません.’ As we are trying to determine what is and isn’t allowed, we will need to listen for these constructions.

3 of 3
In the first line of the dialogue, the first speaker tells us that breakfast, ‘朝ご飯(あさごはん),’ is at seven thirty, ‘七時半.’ Thus, it is not true that breakfast begins at 6:30, so we answer ✕ (ばつ).

Step 2

The key to answering these questions is to listen for two new grammar points we recently learned: ‘てください’; and ‘てはいけません.’ As we are trying to determine what is and isn’t allowed, we will need to listen for these constructions.
Step 3
3 of 4
In the middle of the dialogue, the second speaker asks if smoking is prohibited in the room, ‘部屋でたばこを吸ってはいけません(へやでたばこをすってはいけません).’ The first speaker apologizes, and asks that the second speaker smoke in the lobby, ‘ロビーでたばこを吸ってください(ロビーでたばこをすってください).’ You might be unfamiliar with the word ‘ロビー,’ but as it is derived from the English of the same meaning (‘lobby’), you likely will be able to figure it out in context.

4 of 4
Thus, it is true that smoking is prohibited in the room, so we answer 〇(まる).

After the question about smoking, a third speaker asks if they can take a bath, ‘朝、お風呂に入ってもいいですか(あさ、おふろにはいってもいいですか).’ The first speaker apologizes and asks that the third speaker take showers in the morning, ‘朝はシャワーを使ってください(あさはシャワーをつかってください).’
Result

For this question, we need to answer whether or not it is true that there is no coin laundry here.
Step 2
2 of 4
The key to answering these questions is to listen for two new grammar points we recently learned: ‘てください’; and ‘てはいけません.’ As we are trying to determine what is and isn’t allowed, we will need to listen for these constructions.
Step 3
3 of 4
After the question about showers, the first speaker offers that there is a coin laundry near the lobby, ‘ロビーの隣にコインランドリーがあります(ロビーのとなりにコインランドリーがあります).’ Note that the first speaker uses the conjunctive phrase ‘それから (‘and then’)’ to introduce related information. You might be unfamiliar with the word ‘ロビー,’ but as it is derived from the English of the same meaning (‘lobby’), you likely will be able to figure it out in context.
Result
4 of 4
Thus, it is not true that there is no coin laundry here, so we answer ✕ (ばつ) .
