The conversation and the question 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. 1. M: Now, what seems to be the trouble, Mrs. Stephens? W: I've been very dizzy lately, and last night I had some chest pain. Q: What's the probable relationship between the two speakers? 2. W: Was Robert elected to the committee? M: Yes, in fact he was made chairman but he only agreed to take the job if they'll let him make all the decision himself. Q: What does Robert intend to do? 3.

Q: What is Peter's attitude to the woman's suggestion? 7. M: Can you help me? This is my first time to do it. W: It's easy. All you do is to put the worm on the hook, loosen the line and cast it.

Section B Passage I I knew it wouldn't be long before they discovered my escape from the boat house where they had locked me up, but now I had no choice except to go on. I stumbled up the path which rose steeply to the top of the cliff. Once there, I stopped for a moment to get my breath back, looking out as I did so across the sea. I could see the steamer which came across once a week from the mainland making its way towards the harbour. From where I stood, it looked like a toy or model someone had built. I began waving my arms in the air, then I removed my jacket and used that too to attract attention. But it all seemed hopeless as the steamer sailed steadily on towards the mouth of the harbour. I began to shout, in a last desperate attempt to stop her, and when my throat was quite dry, and my arms aching from the effort I had made, then at the last moment the miracle happened. The steamer began to slow up, and then to move in, away from the harbour and what awaited her there. Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard. 11. Where did the story take place? 12. Why did the speaker feel hopeless? 13. What happened in the end of the story?
Passage II Some people believe that Edgar Cayce, and American man who lived in this century, had psychic powers. Cayce lived from 1877 to 1945 mostly in a small town in Virginia. He was not an educated man. As a child, he was a poor student, and attended school only until the sixth grade. When Cayce became a young man, he discovered he had the power to hypnotize himself. He could put himself into a very special mental state called a trance. While in this trance, he could answer many questions about people's lives and futures. He could tell sick people how to become well. Often he answered questions about people's health that even doctors could not answer. Cayce also answered questions about the future of the world, he correctly predicated when the first and second world wars would begin and end. He foresaw the Great Depression of 1929. Today in Edgar Cayce's town of Virginia Beach, there is a special organization called the Association for Research and Enlightenment. At this place, there are films and lectures about Cayce's predictions and philosophy. There is a bookstore and a library with all of his psychic "reading". If you are in the US, you can visit the Association and learn more about this American psychic. Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard. 14. What do we know about Edgar Cayce? 15. Which of the following could Edgar Cayce NOT predicated? 16. What is the best way to learn more about Cayce's psychic?
Passage III A good way to see the USA is by car. Americans love their automobiles and in the past fifty years they have developed a vast network of roads and freeways to help them reach their destinations. As few visitors have their own cars, renting one is the next best thing. You will need a valid driver's license and either international credit cards, or a deposit. You should start out with a working knowledge of the road. Regulations vary from state to state and this can be very confusing to a newcomer. For example, in some states it is legal to turn right at a red light if there is no approaching traffic, while in other states you will be fined for this action. Throughout the country it is forbidden to pass a school bus when it has stopped to let off children. The size of the country may startle you at first and you may be surprised at the spectacular physical beauty. When the first pioneers began to expand west into the wildness, the natural resources of the land seemed inexhaustible. Nearly 1,000 million acres of land was covered by virgin forest. Much of this was burnt off for farmland and it soon became apparent that the government would have to take action or the natural beauty of the land would be lost forever. Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard. 17. What is not needed for a visitor to rent a car? 18. What is forbidden when one is driving in America? 19. What may startle you at first when you're traveling in America by car? 20. Why would the government have to take some actions?
