| LISTENING SECTION - DIRECTIONS FOR TEACHERS 1 Before the start of the examination period, say:
- Do not open the examination booklet until you are instructed to do so.
2 Distribute one examination booklet and one essay booklet to each
student.
3 After each student has received an examination booklet and an essay
booklet,
say:
- Tear off the answer sheet, which is the last page of the examination
booklet, and fill in its heading. Now circle “Session One” and fill in the
heading on each page of your essay booklet.
4 After the students have filled in all headings on their answer sheets and
essay booklets, say:
- Look at page 2 of your examination booklet and follow along while I read
the Overview and The Situation.
Overview:
For this part of the test, you will listen to a speech about the value of book
ownership, answer some multiple-choice questions, and write a response
based on the situation described below. You will hear the speech twice.
You may take notes on the next page anytime you wish during the readings.
The Situation:
The Board of Education for your school district is considering a proposal
to provide personal copies of assigned novels for students to keep.
You have been asked to prepare a presentation, to be delivered at the
next board meeting, in favor of this proposal. In preparation for writing
your presentation, listen to a speech given in 1940 by noted philosopher
and educator, Dr. Mortimer Adler. Then use the relevant information
from the speech to write your presentation.
Now I will read the passage aloud to you for the first time.
5 Now read the passage aloud with appropriate expression, but without
added comment.
