Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages, and you will be asked three questions on each of the passages. The passages will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard.

Hey you! This is your carpet speaking. Hello! I take a real beating from you and your family every day. The kids track mud all over me, the dog leaves a bunch of fur balls everywhere. You spilt coffee the other day while entertaining guests, and your husband left a trail of potato chip crumbs from the sofa to the kitchen last night while watching the football game. Don't you think it's about time to give me a good cleaning?

Give them a call at 637-5001, and make life for me a little easier. Uh, nice doggie, nice doggie . . .

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.

Napoleon declared, “Victory belongs to the most persevering.” Upon careful study we find perseverance depends upon three things --- purpose, will and enthusiasm. He who has a purpose is always concentrating his forces. By the will, the hope and the plan are prevented from melting away into dreams. Enthusiasm keeps the interest up and makes the obstacles seem small.

Great men never wait for opportunities but make them. They seize upon whatever is at hand, work out their problem and master the situation. The greatest thing a man can do in this world is to make the most possible out of the stuff that has been given to him. This is success and there is no other.
