Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer
sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Who talk more men or women? Most people believe that women talk more. However,
linguist Deborah Tannen, who has studied the communication style of men and women,
says that this is a stereotype. According to Tannen, women are more verbal talk more
in private situations, where they use conversation as the glue to hold relationships
together. But, she says, men talk more in public situations, where they use conversation
to exchange information and gain status. Tannen points out that we can see these
differences even in children. Little girls often play with one best friend, their play
Page 3
includes a lot of conversation. Little boys often play games in groups; their play usually
involves more doing than talking. In school, girls are often better at verbal skills, boys are
often better at mathematics.
A recent study at Emory University helps to shed light on the roots of this
difference. Researchers studied conversation between children age 3-6 and their parents.
They found evidence that parents talk very differently to their son than they do to their
daughters. The startling conclusion was that parents use more language with their girls.
Specifically, when parents talk with their daughters, they use more descriptive language
and more details. There is also far more talk about emotions, especially sadness, with
daughters than with sons.

their sons.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer
sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
A number of factors related to the voice reveal the personality of the speaker. The first
is the broad area of communication, which includes imparting information by use of
language, communicating with a group or an individual, and specialized communication
through performance. A person conveys thoughts and ideas through choice of words, by a
tone of voice that is pleasant or unpleasant, gentle or harsh, by the rhythm that is
inherent within the language itself, and by speech rhythms that are flowing and regular or
uneven and hesitant, and finally, by the pitch and melody of the utterance. When
speaking before a group, a person's tone may indicate unsureness or fright, confidence or
calm. At interpersonal levels, the tone may reflect ideas and feelings over and
above the words chosen, or may belie them. Here the speaker's tone can
consciously or unconsciously reflect intuitive sympathy or antipathy, lack of concern or
interest, fatigue, anxiety, enthusiasm or excitement, all of which are usually discernible
by the acute listener. Public performance is a manner of communication that is highly
specialized with its own techniques for obtaining effects by voice and /or gesture. The

Page 4
motivation derived from the text, and in the case of singing, the music, in combination
with the performer's skills, personality, and ability to create empathy will determine the
success of artistic, political, or pedagogic communication.
Second, the voice gives psychological clues to a person's self-image, perception of
others, and emotional health. Self-image can be indicated by a tone of voice that is
confident, pretentious, shy, aggressive, outgoing, or exuberant, to name only a few
personality traits. Also the sound may give a clue to the facade or mask of that person,
for example, a shy person hiding behind an overconfident front. How a speaker perceives
the listener's receptiveness, interest, or sympathy in any given conversation
can drastically alter the tone of presentation, by encouraging or discouraging the
speaker. Emotional health is evidenced in the voice by free and melodic sounds of the
happy, by constricted and harsh sound of the angry, and by dull and lethargic qualities of
the depressed.

A. The function of the voice in performance B. The production of speech
