Conversation Two
M: Professor Day, may I see you for a minute?
W: Sure. Come on in. What’s the matter?
M: I’ve got a problem. I need your technical writing class, so I went early to the registration area, but by the time I got to the front of the line, it was closed. See, my advisor signed my course request and everything.
W: That’s a big class already. If it is closed, that means I have 50 students in it now.
M: I’m not surprised. It’s a really good class and many students want to attend it.
W: Can’t you take it next year? We offer it every fall.
M: Well, that’s the problem. I’m supposed to be graduating this spring. But, of course, I can’t graduate without your class.
W: I see. In that case, I’ll sign for you. It looks like there will be 51. Take this form back to the registration area. They will get you in.
M: Thanks, Professor Day. I really appreciate this!
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. What is the student’s problem?
24. What do you know about this writing course from the conversation?
25. What does Professor Day decide to do?
Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Cowboy the baboon has learned to count — at least when he is hungry. Dr. Jack Findley of the University of Maryland has taught him to recognize five col¬ors of lights; each light stands for a certain number of beeps from a sound box.
When Cowboy turns on a light by pushing a button, the box begins making beep tones — the number of beeps Cowboy must count is determined by the color of the light. When the correct number has sounded, Cowboy pushes a second button. This stops the sound and releases a food pellet. If he pushes the button too soon or too late, Cowboy doesn’t get any food.
Cowboy is required to keep track of only five signals, now, but he may have to think harder soon. Dr. Findley plans to shine two lights at once, and requires the baboon to push the button when the correct combined number has sounded.
If Cowboy is able to do this, he will have learned how to add.
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. What does the color of the light stand for?
27. What does Dr. Findley plan to teach Cowboy?
28. What is the best title for this selection?
