PART B
Correct31-34: Listen to a conversation between two friends.
Tim, did you get your ticket for the concert Friday?
I tried to. I stopped by the ticket office on the way back from campus, but they wouldn’t take my check.
Why not?
The cashier said I didn’t have enough identification with me—a student ID card wasn’t enough.
He said I needed a driver’s license, too.
What happened to yours? Did you lose it, or just forget to bring it with you?
I don’t have one. You know me——I ride my bicycle everywhere I go, so why do I need a
driver’s license?
You could still get an official identification card from the state and use that to cash checks.
Where do I get one of those?
At the same place you get a driver’s license, the Bureau of Motor Vehicles.
Is that office downtown?
No, it’s out on Southland Parkway, next to the Midvale Shopping Mall.
What do you think I’ll need to do to get one?
Just bring some official document that has your date of birth on it. You could use a passport,
for example.
I’ll ride out there tomorrow.
Good idea. And I’ll tell you what, Tim—if you promise to cash a check as soon as you can, I’ll
let you borrow some money, and you can go get that ticket.

CorrectQuestions 35-38: Listen to a conversation at a student health clinic.
The doctor should be able to see you in a few minutes. I just need some information from you
first. What seems to be the problem?
Well, as you can see, I’ve got a rash on my hands and arms. I think it might be some kind of
allergic reaction. My roommate just got a new cat. Maybe I’m allergic to cats.
Hmm. Usually, allergies to animals don’t cause rashes on your hands.
Well, maybe I’m allergic to some kind of food, or .
When did your rash first develop?
On Monday. By Tuesday, it was worse, and on Tuesday night I could hardly sleep.
Tell me, have you been out in the woods lately? , . .
Out in the woods? I went hiking Saturday. Why? Oh, I get it-—you think my rash might be
caused by poison ivy, right?
Wen, it looks like that. The doctor can tell you for sure. Do you know if you came in contact
with poison ivy?
No, but then I have no idea what poison ivy looks like.
It grows in clusters of three leaves, and the leaves are waxy looking.
Well, if I do have poison ivy, what can the doctor do for me?
He can prescribe a lotion that will relieve the itching. But if I were you, I’d go to the library and
look for some color photos of poison ivy, and try to avoid it the next time you go into the
woods.

Correct39- 41: Listen to a talk given by a tour guide.
Welcome back to your Northwest Holidays tour bus. I hope you enjoyed your visit to Redwood
National Park. We’ll be leaving the park in just a few more minutes and heading for Tall Trees
Lodge, where we’ll spend the night.
I want to tell you a little about tomorrow’s destination:Crater Lake National Park. Crater
Lake is located in an extinct volcano. A cone-shaped island, Wizard Island seems to float on its
surface. One of the first things you’ll notice when we get there is the deep-blue color of the
water of the lake. The water will be that color whether the sky is clear or cloudy. Once it was
thought that the color was due to an unusual mineral content, but chemical analysis showed no
such thing. It’s now believed that the lake water is so clear and deep that it separates and
reflects the blue rays of sunlight and absorbs the other colors. .
Oh, and here’s another interesting fact about Crater Lake: it has neither an outlet nor an
inlet, yet it maintains almost exactly the same level of water, with only slight variations from
season to season and year to year. Somehow, gains from snow and rain are perfectly balanced
by losses from evaporation and seepage.
We should be arriving at Crater Lake early tomorrow afternoon. We’ll be spending the rest
of the day in the park, and then on to our next stop, the city of Portland, Oregon. For now, sit
back and relax, and we’ll be at our hotel in about 20 minutes.

42. Question
Correct42-46: Listen to a lecture given in a U.S. History course.
Good morning, students. Today we’ll be continuing to talk about the development of rapid
communications in the United States. No discussion of communications is complete without a
mention of a particularly dramatic means of delivering the mail: the Pony Express. It was
founded in 1860, the year before the Civil War, to carry mail from St. Joseph, Missouri, to the
gold fields of California. Racing across Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada, these horsemen
covered 2,000 miles in ten days.
Every 10 miles, there was a relay station where a fresh horse waited. Each man rode a total of five relays, that’s 50 miles, before he was replaced by a fresh rider. The riders galloped summer and winter, day and night, through rain and wind and snow. Now, let me read to you from a newspaper advertisement that was used to recruit Pony Express riders: “Wanted . . . thin, wiry young fellows-—preferably orphans.”
Can you imagine yourself answering an ad for a job where orphans were preferred: That should give you some idea of the nature of the work. Only eighteen months after the Pony Express was founded, the transcontinental telegraph was opened and put the company out of business. It had been losing money anyway. In its day, though, it provided an extremely useful service. Any questions before we go on? .

CorrectQuestions 47-50: Listen to a talk given at a meeting of the drama club.
As president of the University Drama Club, I’d like to welcome all our members. Today we have
a special guest speaker: Molly Quinn. Molly was a member of the Drama Club herself when she
was a student here, and she went on to great success. First, she won parts in several New York
plays, and then she made guest appearances on a number of television shows. Most recently,
she completed work on her first role in a feature movie. She also hopes to start directing soon;
she told me that she might try to get a start by directing television commercials. Molly is going
to talk to us today about getting into the acting profession, but before we hear from her, I want
to remind everyone that next weekend the Drama Department is holding tryouts for parts in the
play A Dolls House, so mark that on your calendars. Given her own experience, I’m sure Molly
would agree that appearing in campus plays is a great way to learn the basics of acting. Now,
let’s give Molly a big welcome!
