W: New York is a fascinating place and it has another interesting name, the Big Apple.
M: The Big Apple? Tell me where the name came from?
W: The jazz musicians of the 1920s are responsible for the name. When they played a concert in a city, they called that city an apple. Of course, New York was the biggest city in the country and the best place for jazz concerts. So the musicians called it the Big Apple.
Q: Who gave New York the interesting name?

W: I wonder if Tom will come. It’s already 10: 00, and he was supposed to come at 9:00.
M: He told me he would start 30 minutes earlier. Maybe something happened to him.
Q: How long have the man and the woman been waiting?
