  SECTION 1: LISTENING TEST

  Part A: Spot Dictation

  Directions: In this part of the test , you will hear a passage and read the same passage with blanks in it. Fill in each of the blanks with the word or words you have heard on the tape. Write your answer in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Remember you will hear the passage only once. Now let's begin Part A with Spot Dictation.

  Around the world young people are spending unbelievable sums of money to listen to rock music. Forbes Magazine claims that at least fifty rock stars have incomes of between two million and six million dollars per year.

  “It doesn't make sense,” says Johnny Mathis, one of the older music millionaires, who made a million dollars a year when he was most popular, in the 1950s. “Performers aren't worth this kind of money. In fact, nobody is.”

  But the rock stars' admirers seem to disagree. Those who love rock music spend about two billion dollars a year for records. They pay 150 million to see rock stars in person.

  Some observers think the customers are buying more than music. According to one theory, to play rock music doesn't require much training. There is no gulf between the audience and the performer. Every boy and girl in the audience thinks, “I could sing like that.” Rock music has become a kind of religion. Young people are glad to pay to worship a rock star because it is a way of worshipping themselves.

  Luck is a key word for explaining the success of many. In 1972 one of the luckiest was Don McLean, who wrote and sang “American Pie.” McLean earned more than a million dollars from recordings of “American Pie.” Then too, by writing his own music, McLean earns some extra money.
