Section B
Directions:
In Section B, you will hear two short
passages and one longer conversation, and you
will be asked several questions on each
of the passages and the conversation. 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.
Unless
you are one of those rare people with an excellent
memory, you probably have trouble
remembering
the
names
of
people
you
have
just
met.
This
problem
can
be
frustrating
and
embarrassing. Fortunately, there are a
number of ways you can help yourself overcome this
human
tendency.
Before
examining
the
methods
to
help
yourself
remember
people's
names,
let's
look
at
the
reasons
why
we
are
so
forgetful
in
the
first
place.
Experts
put
a
lot
of
the
blame
on
a
lack
of
motivation and interest. Simply put,
remembering names is just not high on the list of
priorities for
most people. Another
reason is that putting a new face to a name is
more complicated than we
think, which
leads to another problem. We usually don't make
the effort to commit new names to
memory immediately. Not only that, but
when meeting someone new, we may be thinking about
other things and not be paying enough
attention.
All of this means that we
need to take measures to avoid the embarrassment
of forgettinga
person's name. One good
method is to say a person's name when you greet
them and also repeat it
silently to
yourself a few times. This type of repetition is
vital to learning practically any type of
skill.
Using
a
memory
device,
such
as
associating
individual
names
with
something
else,
also
helps. For example, if
someone's name is Ben and he is tall,
you can label him (to
yourself, of
course)
meet
them will assist you in
recalling their names. While forgetting names
isn't a matter of life or death,
it
is
uncomfortable.
Putting
these
tips
into
practice
will
help
you
better
avoid
this
social
discomfort.
