Finding a partner has always been a complicated process. It is a ritual that has evolved over the centuries, from
a man taking food to a prospective partner in the Stone Age to young couples having tea together in Victorian times
to dancing in a club with deafening music in the 21st century.
But now busy men and women who don’t have the time for a slow, gentle courtship have a quicker way to
find a partner: speed dating, where single people have exactly three minutes to decide if the person they are talking
to could be Mr. or Ms. Right. The idea involves bringing together people for an evening of frenzied, “quick-fire”
dating. This is how it works.
Small tables are placed in a line and the women sit down at the one assigned to them. They stay at their tables
all evening. The men take turns sitting next to each woman and having a very quick conversation. After three
minutes a bell rings and, even if you are in mid-sentence, it is time for the man to move to the next table. If you like
the person you have just spoken to, you pit a check in the “yes” box on a scorecard. If the other person chooses you
too, this is called a “match,” and the organizers will send you the other person’s e-mail address a couple of days later,
and they will be sent yours, too.
“Three minutes is enough time to talk to someone,” says Adele Testani, who runs a speed dating company,
“because you can get an idea of what a person is like in that time, and you can eliminate them if you see right away
that they’re not your type.”

The men choose the tables where there are women they like.
The men ask for women’s email addresses in the conversation.
The men sit next to each woman and talk for three minutes.
【2】49. If you like someone in “speed dating,” what should you do to get his/her e-mail address?
Ask the e-mail address directly while you have conversation with the person.
Check “yes” on the scorecard after you finish the conversation with the person.
Tell the organizers to send you the person’s e-mail address a couple of days later.
When the bell rings, don’t move on to the next table to show the organizers you are interested in this person.
【1】50. Why does Adele Testani, who runs a speed dating company, limit the conversations to three minutes?
