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.

        In British Columbia, Canada, a local program was set up, which has benefited both elderly people and students.

Linda Jones, who used to be a nurse, is 99 years old now. She felt lonely because her daughter and son couldn’t keep her company. Recently, she signed up for a local program which aims to connect elderly people with young people. Linda and17-year-old Jessy Brown formed a pair because Jessy brown is also interested in the nursing work. Linda spent much of her life teaching and living in other parts of the world helping people in need. The stories are inspiring Brown, who also wants to become a nurse.

For the high school students who take part in the program, the time spent with elderly people can be used toward volunteer work which is needed for graduation. They are supposed to speak for 30 minutes with elderly people each week, but many go far beyond that. Students love and look forward to talking to elderly people every week.

 The program has been a good fortune to both elderly people and high school students. Due to various reasons, elderly people can’t meet their families and students are having trouble getting their volunteer hours. Therefore, there has been a huge positive response from students who participate in the program.

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following speech.

        Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Cheston. Cheston is believed to be one of the most beautiful places for concert in West England. Throughout the whole summer, Cheston holds an internationally famous concert festival in a magnificently beautiful countryside background. The stage for the performances is surrounded by the charming 18th century architecture, which is more than perfect for classic music. However, what attracts our audience most is that everyone is seated less than twenty feet from the performers. This short distance from the performers can make the audience more involved in the music.

        Now, I would like to say a few words about the concert festival itself. Cheston Concert Festival is an annual summer event. It is a charity activity to promote the appreciation of performing arts in West England. The Festival aims to benefit the local community by engaging young professional artists and stimulating young people to participate in live performances. We hope to support young musicians in their career development. Cheston Concert Festival does not receive any public financial support. Primarily, it relies on private contributions. We offer various levels of private cooperation and our supporters can have the privilege of priority booking.

Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation.

M: Hi, Jennifer, how is your Philosophy class?

W: Oh, it’s pretty good. I read a lot of materials we’re learning, but I’m frustrated about the biggest assignment that is due next week.

M: Oh no, what’s up?

W: Well, it’s a group project and we have to write a 10-page paper and prepare a 20-minute presentation about different famous philosophers, but my group needs to be pushed really hard.

M: That sounds stressful.

W: Yes, that’s the thing. The project is due on Monday and two of the people haven’t yet started their sections and another student’s work was terrible.

M: Oh, what was wrong with it?

W: It didn’t really satisfy any of the project requirements. His job was to cover Aristotle, like where and when he was born, and primary ideas of interests and who he influenced and who influenced him. Brian, the guy in my group just focused on ancient Greece in general and barely mentioned Aristotle. Let alone his great contributions.

M: That’s awful. You know, that’s the reason I find group project to be stressful. You never know who is going to be in your group and how unmotivated they are. In my engineering class, we had to design a suspension bridge, using renewable resources in a small group. My team members are just unreliable. It was so much work to do the project all by myself.

W: That’s not fair. I might have to do the same for this project. Before that I always loved group projects, but now my opinion has changed.

M: Since I have had the similar situation, I know what you are thinking about.

W: Thanks for your understanding, Mike.
