Part 2: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Music influences people in different ways or the same person differently at different times.
Music may seem to influence people differently. That is because people can react differently to music.
We are able to apply a choosing process to the music we hear. If someone hates jazz, then a jazz piece
with a positive effect will probably not make him feel good. A happy song might appear to make an
angry person angrier, yet it is not the music itself that is creating the anger; rather it is the positive effect
of the music. The angry person does not want to accept the song's happy feeling: it points out his
already existing anger and makes that anger come to the surface.
When a piece of music is played and we are listening to it, our body, mind, and feelings are
being affected. The musicians of ancient cultures such as China, India, Turkey, and Greece understood
the effects of music. In fact, Pathagoras, in ancient Greece, introduced a whole science that concerned
them. Because the musicians of these ancient cultures understood these effects, they created music that
was positive, uplifting, and beneficial. Once the effects of music are better understood, the next step is
to gain a better understanding of the music around us, and what effect it is actually having.

A. Music cannot be chosen.

C. Music affects us in various ways.

Part 2: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Music influences people in different ways or the same person differently at different times.
Music may seem to influence people differently. That is because people can react differently to music.
We are able to apply a choosing process to the music we hear. If someone hates jazz, then a jazz piece
with a positive effect will probably not make him feel good. A happy song might appear to make an
angry person angrier, yet it is not the music itself that is creating the anger; rather it is the positive effect
of the music. The angry person does not want to accept the song's happy feeling: it points out his
already existing anger and makes that anger come to the surface.
When a piece of music is played and we are listening to it, our body, mind, and feelings are
being affected. The musicians of ancient cultures such as China, India, Turkey, and Greece understood
the effects of music. In fact, Pathagoras, in ancient Greece, introduced a whole science that concerned
them. Because the musicians of these ancient cultures understood these effects, they created music that
was positive, uplifting, and beneficial. Once the effects of music are better understood, the next step is
to gain a better understanding of the music around us, and what effect it is actually having.
