答案:Mary’s purpose of talking to John is not only to tell him about her concern for friend but also to communicate and connect with John. She wants him to respond to her feelings, because that will enhance their sense of closeness. However, John views communication as an instrument to accomplish things, so he tries to help by giving advice that will solve the problem. To Mary, it seems he entirely disregards her feelings. She does not feel close to John, which is her primary purpose of talking with him. Mary might welcome some advice, but only after John responds to her feelings.
