Section C
Directions:
In this section, you will hear a passage three times.
When the passage is read for the first time,
you should listen carefully for its general idea.
When the passage is read for the second time,
you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43
with the exact words you have just heard.
For blanks numbered from 44 to 46
you are required to fill in the missing information.
For these blanks,
you can either use the exact words you have just heard
or write down the main points in your own words.
Finally, when the passage is read for the third time,
you should check what you have written.
You probably have noticed
that people express similar ideas in different ways,
depending on the situation they are in.
This is very natural.
All languages have two general levels of usage:
a formal level and an informal level.
English is no exception.
The difference in these two levels is the situation
in which you use a particular level.
Formal language is the kind of language you find in textbooks,
reference books and in business letters.
You would also use formal English in compositions and essays
that you write in school.
Informal language is used in conversation with colleagues,
family members and friends,
and when we write personal notes or letters to close friends.
Formal language is different from informal language in several ways.
First, formal language tends to be more polite.
What we may find interesting
is that it usually takes more words to be polite.
For example, I might say to a friend or family member,
"Close the door, please", but to a stranger,
I probably would say "Would you mind closing the door?"
Another difference between formal and informal language
is some of the vocabulary.
There are bound to be some words
and phrases that belong in formal language
and others that are informal.
Let's say that I really like soccer.
If I'm talking to my friend
I might say "I'm just crazy about soccer!"
But if I were talking to my boss,
I would probably say "I really enjoy soccer."
