Section A
1. M: Mary, could you please tell Thomas to contact with me? I was hoping he would be able to help me out with the freshmen orientation program next week.
W: I would certainly tell him if I saw him, but I haven#39;t seen him around for quite a few days.
Q: What does the woman mean?
2. M: Susan, I am going to change the light bulb above the dining room table. Will you hold the ladder for me?
W: No problem. But be careful while you#39;re up there.
Q: What does the man want the woman to do?
3. W: It#39;s freezing cold. Let me make some coffee to warm us up. Do you want a piece of pie as well?
M: Coffee sounds great. But I#39;m going to have dinner with some friends in a while, so I#39;d better skip the pie.
Q: What does the man mean?
4. W: How come Jime lost his job?
M: I didn#39;t say he had lost it. All I said was if he didn#39;t get out and start selling a few cars instead of idling around all day, he might find himself looking for a new job.
Q: What does the man say about Jim?
5. M: Hello, Mary. This is Paul at the bank. Is Torry home?
W: Not yet. Paul. I don#39;t think you can reach him at the office now, either. He phoned me five minutes ago to say he was stopping for a hair-cut on his way home.
Q: What do you think the woman probably is?
6. W: Oh! Boy! I don#39;t understand how you got a ticket today. I always thought you were slow even driving on the less croweded fast lane.
M: I#39;m usually careful. But this time I thought I could get through the intersection before the light turned.
Q: What do we learn about the man?
7. W: Your dog certainly seems to know you are his master. Did you have to punish him very often when you trained him?
M: I found it#39;s much better to praise him when he obeys and not to be so fussy when he makes mistakes.
Q: What does the man say about training dogs?
8. M: I am afraid there won#39;t be time to do another tooth today. Make sure you don#39;t eat anything like stakes for the next few hours, and we#39;ll fill the other cavity tomorrow.
W: All right. Acutually, I must hurry to the library to return some books.
Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?
9. W: I am worried about Jenny going to college. College students are so wild nowadays.
M: Actually, only a few are like that. Most students are too busy studying to have time to cause trouble.
Q: What does the man imply?
10. W: You didn#39;t seem to be terribly enthusiastic about the performance.
M: You must be kidding. I couldn#39;t have clapped any harder. My hands are still hurting.
Q: What does the man think of the performance?
Section B
Passage 1
Born and raised in central Ohio, I#39;m a country girl through and through. I#39;m currently studying to become a physical therapist, a career path that marks a great achievement for me. At Ohio State University, admission into the physical therapy program is intensely competitive. I made it pass the first cut the first year I applied, but was turned down for admission. I was crushed, because for years I have been determined to become a physical therapist. I received advice from friends and relatives about changing my major and finding another course for my life. I just couldn#39;t do it. I knew I could not be as happy in another profession. So I stilled myself, began to work seriously for another years and reapplied. Happily I received notice of my admission. Later, I found out that less than 15% of the applicant had been offered positions that year. Now in the first two years of professional training, I couldn#39;t be happier with my decision not to give up on my dream. My father told me that if I wanted it badly enough, I would get in. Well, Daddy, I wanted it. So there. After graduation, I would like to travel to another country, possibly a Latin American country and work in a children#39;s hospital for a year or two. So many of the children there are physically handicapped but most hospitals don#39;t have the funding to hire trained staff to care for them properly. I would like to change that somehow.

Passage 3
Over time animals have developed many ways to stay away from predators. A predator is an animal that hunts and eats other animals. Hiding is one of the best ways to stay alive. Some animals hide by looking like the places where they live. To see how this works, let#39;s look at the sea dragon. It#39;s a master of disguise. The sea dragon is covered with skin that looks like leaves. The skin helps the dragon look like a piece of seaweed. A hungry meat eater would stay away from anything that looks like seaweed. Other animals stay safe by showing their colors. They want other animals to see them. Scientist call these bright colors--warning colors. You have probably seen animals that have warning colors. Some grasshoppers show off their own bright colors. Those colors don#39;t just look attractive; they tell their enemies to stay away. Of course, hungry predators sometimes ignore the warning. They still go off the grasshopper if that happens. The grasshopper has a backup of defense. It makes lots of foams. The foams taste so ad that the predator won#39;t do it again. Color doesn#39;t offer enough protection for some other animals. They have different defenses that help them survive in the wild. Many fish living in groups or schools, that#39;s because of the safety in numbers. At the first sign of trouble, schooling fish swim as close together as they can get. Then the school of fish makes lots of twists and turns. All that movements make it harder for predators to see individuals in a large group.
18. What is the speaker mainly talking about?
19. What protects the sea dragon from the meat eater#39;s attack?
20. According to the passage, why do many fishes stay in group?
