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 following 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 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.

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 following questions.
The rules of etiquette in American restaurants depend upon a number of factors
the physical location of the restaurant, e.g., rural or urban; the type of restaurant,
e.g., informal or formal; and certain standards that are more universal. In other
words, some standards 5 of etiquette vary significantly while other standards apply
almost anywhere. Learning the proper etiquette in a particular type of restaurant in a
particular area may sometimes require instruction, but more commonly it simply
requires sensitivity and experience. For example, while it is acceptable to read a

magazine in a coffee shop, it is 10 inappropriate to do the same in a more luxurious
setting. And, if you are eating in a very rustic setting it may be fine to tuck your
napkin into your shirt, but if you are in a sophisticated urban restaurant this behavior
would demonstrate a lack of manners. It is safe to say, however, that in virtually
every restaurant it is unacceptable 15 to indiscriminately throw your food on the
floor. The conclusion we can most likely draw from the above is that while the types
and locations of restaurants determine etiquette appropriate to them, some rules
apply to all restaurants.
