You may have been born that way How do psychologists measure shyness? One way is by observation. They keep detailed records of peoples actions -like how often these people speak to others, or how long it takes someone to say hello to a stranger. Another way to measure shyness is to ask people questions. The test only takes about 10 minutes. It asks questions like Do you like going out a lot?" and "Do you have many friends? People must answer either yes or no. These questions can predict how people actually behave in social situations.

5 4. W: George. Where were you yesterday evening? I expected to see you at the concert. M: Oh, I waited for you at the corner of your street. Then I looked for you at your flat, but the housekeeper said you were out. Q: Why didn’t they meet that evening? 5. W: The place I’ve heard so much about is Los Angeles. The climate is pretty good. Year-round flowers, Year-round swimming. How do like it? M: Well, the beaches are beautiful. But people there are terribly annoyed by the dirty air. I mean, the combination of fog, smoke and automobile exhaust. There is not enough wind to blow it away. Q: What does the man think of Los Angeles? 6. M: I’d like to make an appointment to see Dr. Smith tomorrow. W: I’m sorry. Dr. Smith went on a week vacation in Mexico, and on his way back he’ll be staying in California for 5 days. Let me see. He’ll probably be back the day after tomorrow. Q: Where is Dr. Smith now? 7. M: Look, I’m sorry I didn’t turn up for the match yesterday, but it wasn’t really my fault, you know. W: It’s all very well saying it wasn’t your fault, but thanks to you we lost 10 to 1. Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 8. M: You call Henry a dreamer, but I think he’s got a lot of good ideas. W: Good ideas are only useful if you make something out of them. Q: Why does the woman think that Henry is a dreamer? 9. M: You’ll need 36 credit hours to get an M. A. degree. Fifteen must be from the English Department and fifteen from the Education Department. For the remaining six credit hours, you can either write a thesis or take two more selected courses. W: Right now, this is very confusing to me, but I’m sure I’ll know what to do as I learn more about it. Q: What are they talking about? 10. M: This TV set is getting worse and worse. Now it doesn’t work at all. W: Here’s an advertisement about a big TV sale. There might be some good bargains in it. Q: What does the woman suggest? Passage One Are you afraid to raise your hand in class, even when you know the answer? If you are, most people would say that you’re shy. If you feel shy, you’re not alone. Nine out of ten people are at least a little shy. But however shy you are, scientific evidence seems to show that it isn’t your fault. You may have been born that way. How do psychologists measure shyness? One way is by observation. They keep detailed records of people’s actions-like how often these people speak to others, or how long it takes someone to say hello to a stranger. Another way to measure shyness is to ask people questions. The test only takes about 10 minutes. It asks questions like “Do you like going out a lot?” and “Do you have many friends?” People must answer either yes or no. These questions can predict how people actually behave in social situations. Suppose the test tells you that someone is shy. Chances are good that that person will act shy. When scientists measure shyness, they’re really comparing degrees of shyness. In other words, when researchers say people are shy, they really mean they are more shy than others. Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard. 11.

Passage Three The British Broadcasting Corporation is rejecting more and more candidates applying for jobs, because they suffer f hearing loss. And this is due to a wide use of personal stereo systems. according to officials at the corporation, about three per cent of them fail to win jobs for this reason.

That will rule out his chances of being a engineer taking care of sound quality in recording. So exerts are now calling for manufactures of personal stereos to provide a warning light.
