Listening Comprehension
Section A
Directions: In Section A, you will hear ten short conversations between two speakers. At the end of each conversation, a question will be asked about what was said. The conversations and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a conversation and the question about it, read the four possible answers on your paper, and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard.
1. W: Excuse me, I’m looking for Option B.
M: Oh, it’s right there, on the bestseller shelf facing the main entrance.
Q: Where does this conversation take place

4. M: Great news! The deadline has been postponed for a week.

Section B
Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages and one longer conversation, and you will be asked several questions on each of the passages and the conversation. The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard.
Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
Many schools across the U.S. hold graduation ceremonies this time of year. In some schools, even five- and six-year-olds observe their graduation from kindergarten. Meanwhile, some much older people are graduating too. Meet 70-year-old Jerry Reid, who just graduated from the University of Virginia. He earned a bachelor’s degree.
Mr. Reid might not look like the average college student; his hair is definitely grayer. But still, his age is easy to forget. Other college peers know him as one of their own. He joined a men’s group on campus. He sang songs along with many other students. Mr. Reid’s school friends say they can talk to him just about anything.
About a half century ago, in his twenties, Mr. Reid was not in school. Instead, he was racing cars and chasing girls. But he says his friend Bill invited him to parties held in universities. “Bill told me what a terrible life I had unless I came up here and went to school with him,” said Reid. That was in 1963. Mr. Reid says it took him 48 years to take that advice. In 2011, he entered college. His professor, Luke Wright, says Mr. Reid influences students. He opened the minds of the young adults and showed them that life does not end at 40. Instead, the 70-year-old college graduate believes that getting older can be the beginning of a dream.
“Remember that the path you left waits for you. It’s there. It’s yours. All you must do is to get out of your own way and get back to it. And that’s exactly what I did,” said Mr. Reid. He says that he and his wife Susan would take some time off now to enjoy his college degree. Then, he’ll continue his studies for his graduate degree.
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
11. Which of the following is true about Mr. Reid
12. Which of the following words best describes Mr. Reid
13. What lesson can we learn from the story of Jerry Reid
Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
While assessment gets most of the attention, it’s feedback that can transform a student’s learning. Studies have shown that when feedback is predominantly negative, it can impact students’ performance and achievement.
But when it’s given with sensitivity, when it explains what the student is doing not only incorrectly but also correctly, then productive learning happens. So, how can I, as a teacher, impact my students’ learning through effective feedback that is both positive and negative One of the ways I do this is to use the “feedback sandwich” technique, which is: compliment, correct, compliment.
I also think it’s important to concentrate on one ability at a time. In other words, giving feedback in bite size. When only one skill is critiqued rather than the entire piece of work, it has a far greater effect because, for the student, correcting one error is far more achievable than trying to understand and correct many errors at the same e the next lesson, I focus on other corrections.
There’s also another technique that, when used on a regular basis, helps me provide quality feedback. That technique is asking myself three questions:
What can the student do
What can’t the student do
How can the student do better
These questions keep me focused on the good and the bad and help me give feedback that keeps my students “on target” for achievement.
(Now listen again, please.)
Questions:
14. According to the speaker, what does negative feedback influence
15. What does “feedback sandwich” technique consist of
16. Based on the talk, how can we keep students “on target” for achievement
Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.
M: First, let’s meet psychologist Frances Rauscher, from the University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh. Her study shows that a group of typical children, regardless of their talents or parental involvement, can draw benefits from arts training that affects other academic areas, especially math. Professor Rauscher, can you tell us more
W: It’s getting as close as is absolutely possible to the real world. You know, these kids already enrolled in schools. They were just simply assigned to these different groups, this test group and this control group. And what we’re finding is a strong effect in the improvement of mathematical ability as measured by school standards. So, this has real-world appeal.
M: And it seems that your recent research could help explain why arts education might have this additional benefit.
W: Yes. A group of three-year-olds were given music lessons in preschool—piano and singing. They scored significantly higher on a particular IQ test that measures abstract reasoning—a skill essential to mathematics.
M: Just how music enhances mathematical skills is unknown. It may be by the more general effect of increasing self-respect, or maybe something biological happens in the brain, or maybe these children are learning how to learn.
W: In other words, you can learn skills, but you can also learn about how you learn things. And that seems to be a mark of the true mature learner, that they know how to learn things. And it’s possible that this early arts training might be having some effect in children knowing how to attack new material.
M: Whatever may be going on in the growing brains of children, both psychological and biological, these new findings indicate an increasing awareness among scientists and educators that a rich learning environment can significantly enhance children’s intellectual development in unexpected ways. I’m Michael Trudeau reporting.
