ĐỀ THI GỒM 80 CÂU; TỪ QUESTION 1 ĐẾN QUESTION 80
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
questions from 1 to 10
A
number of factors related to the voice reveal the personality of the speaker.
The
first is the broad area of communication, which includes imparting information by
use of language, communicating with a group or an individual and specialized communication
through performance. A person conveys thoughts and ideas through choice
of words, by a tone of voice that is pleasant or unpleasant, gentle or harsh,
by the rhythm that is inherent within the language itself, and by speech
rhythms that are flowing and regular or uneven and hesitant, and finally, by
the pitch and melody of the utterance. When speaking before a group, a person's
tone may indicate uncertainty or fright, confidence or calm. At interpersonal
levels, the tone may reflect ideas and feelings over and above the words
chosen, or may belie them. Here the participant’s tone can consciously or
unconsciously reflect intuitive sympathy or antipathy, lack of concern or
interest, fatigue, anxiety, enthusiasm or excitement, all of which are .usually
discernible by the acute listener. Public performance is a manner of
communication that is highly specialized with its own techniques for obtaining
effects by voice and /or gesture. The motivation derived from the text, and in the case of singing, the music, in combination
with the performer's skills, personality, and ability to create empathy will determine
the success of artistic, political, or pedagogic communication.
Second,
the voice gives psychological clues to a person's self-image, perception of others,
and emotional health. Self-image can be indicated by a tone of voice that is confident,
pretentious, shy, aggressive, outgoing, or exuberant, to name only a few personality
traits. Also the sound may give a clue to the facade or mask of that person, for
example, a shy person hiding behind an overconfident front. How a speaker perceives
the listener's receptiveness, interest, or sympathy in any given conversation can
drastically alter the tone of
presentation, by encouraging or discouraging the speaker. Emotional health is evidenced in the voice by free and
melodic sounds of the happy, by constricted and harsh sound of the angry, and
by dull and lethargic qualities of the depressed.
