29. Sorry I didn't see you on the news.

 

Yeah. And it's not likely they are going to rebroadcast

 

it anytime soon.

 

What does the man imply?

 

 

(A) The woman missed her chance to see him on television.

 

(B) The interview will be rebroadcast soon.

 

© He saw the woman on the news.

 

(D) The woman should have read his newspaper article.

 

 

I chose a

 

 

PART B

 

31-34 Conversation between a student and guidance

 

counselor

 

*Hello, John. You must be pleased. After all how

 

many students are lucky enough to have been accepted

 

at their first and their second choices?

 

*Not many I know. But I'm not sure yet which one

 

to choose.

 

*Well, you seem to have doubts about the state

 

university. But its biology department has a fine

 

reputation. What more could a biology major want?

 

*Yeah. And they also have internships for seniors.

 

But a friend told me that for the first two years some

 

lectures have a hundred and fifty students. You probably

 

wouldn't get to know any of your teachers.

 

*Well, you might actually. Because those classes also

 

have small discussion sections. Twice a week, and have

 

no more than twenty students.

 

*I know. But I've heard that they are usually taught

 

by graduate students. At White Stone College all

 

classes are taught by professors.

 

*What about Sating? Do you prefer a small town like

 

White Stone? Or a bigger place like the state capital?

 

*That doesn't matter to me. What I do care about is

 

getting individual attention from the faculty than making

 

friends.

 

*Look, I've known you for four years now and you seen

 

to be a pretty outgoing person. I don't think you have

 

any trouble making friends at the state university.

 

It sounds to me that you are learning toward White

 

Stone though?

 

*I am. The only problem is that the White Stone's

 

tuition is really high and I'm not sure I can afford it.

 

*You could still apply for a student loan or sign up for

 

a work-study program.

 

*Yeah. I think I'll look into that.

 

 

31. Why did the man go to see the woman?

 

A) To apply for a student loan.

 

(B) To discuss a decision he has to make.

 

© To ask for a letter of recommendation.

 

(D) To find out which colleges accepted him.

 

 

I chose C

 

33. What does the man consider to be an advantage of the White Stone College?

 

. (A) It has a beautiful campus.

 

(B) Professors regularly publish their results.

 

© It's in an urban setting.

 

(D) Faculty members interact with students

 

 

I chose b

 

 

34. What is the man likely to do in the near future?

 

(A) Investigate borrowing money for college.

 

(B) Choose a new major.

 

© Accept an internship at the state university.

 

(D) Look for a job as a biologist.

 

I chose a, but I think d is also ok
