Directions: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations. At the
end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the
conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause.
During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is
the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through
the centre.
11.
W: I just heard about a really beautiful park in the east end of the town. There are a lot of roses in
bloom.
M: Why don’t we walk over there and see for ourselves?
Q: What will the speakers probably do?
12.
M: My presentation is scheduled for 9:30 tomorrow morning at the lecture hall. I hope to see you
there.
W: Oh, sorry. I was about to tell you that I have an appointment with my dentist at 9:00 o’clock
tomorrow.
Q: What do we learn about the woman?
13.
W: How long have you been running this company?
M: Twenty years if you can believe that. I brought it from a small operation to what it is today.
Q: What do we learn about the man?
14.
M: Have you read the news on the campus net? Susan has won the scholarship for next year.
W: I knew she would from the very beginning. Such a brilliant and diligent girl! She certainly
deserves it.
Q: What does the woman mean?
15.
W: Taking a bus to Miami, it’s cheaper than going by train.
M: That’s true. But I’d rather pay a little more for the added comfort and convenience.
Q: What does the man mean?
16.
M: I think it’s time we got rid of all this old furniture.
W: You’re right. We need to promote our image besides it’s not a real antique.
Q: What do the speakers mean?
17.
M: That was some storm yesterday. How was I afraid I couldn’t make it home.
W: Yeah, most of the roads to my house were flooded. I didn’t get home from the lab until
midnight.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
18.
W: My boys are always complaining that they’re bored.
M: Why don’t you get them into some team sports? My son and daughter play soccer every
Saturday. And they both look forward to it all week.
Q: What does the man mean?

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
W: I don’t know what to do. I can’t seem to get anyone in the hospital to listen to my complaints
and this outdated equipment is dangerous. Just look at it.
M: Hmm, uh, are you trying to say that it presents a health hazard?
W: Yes, I am. The head technician in the lab tried to persuade the hospital administration to
replace it, but they are trying to cut costs.
M: You are pregnant, aren’t you?
W: Yes, I am. I made an effort to get my supervisor to transfer me to another department, but he
urged me not to complain too loudly. Because the administration is more likely to replace me than
an X-ray equipment, I’m afraid to refuse to work. But I’m more afraid to expose my unborn child
to the radiation.
M: I see what you mean. Well, as your union representative, I have to warn you that it would take
quite a while to force management to replace the old machines and attempt to get you transferred
may or may not be successful.
W: Oh, what am I supposed to do then?
