Passage 4
Men and women often have different ideas of what’s important—and at what point “important”
topics should be raised. A woman told me, with lingering astonishment, of a conversation with her
boyfriend. Knowing he had seen his friend Oliver, she asked, “What’s new with Oliver?” He replied,
“Nothing.” 31 , later in the conversation it came out that Oliver and his girlfriend had decided to
get married. “That’s nothing?” the woman gasped in 32 . For men, “Nothing” may be a ritual
33 at the start of a conversation. A college woman missed her brother but rarely called him
because she found it difficult to get talk going. A 34 conversation began with her asking,
“What’s up with you?” and his replying, “Nothing.” Hearing his “Nothing” as meaning “There is
nothing personal I want to talk about,” she supplied talk by filling him in on her news and
35 hung up in frustration. But when she thought back, she remembered that later in the
conversation he had mumbled, “Christie and I got into another fight.” This came so late and so low
that she didn’t pick up on it. And he was probably equally frustrated that she didn’t.
31. (A) Although (B) Besides (C) However (D) Moreover

Athens, Greece
Athens is a very unusual city. About 14 million people live there. Tourists love Athens because it

Passage 3
For centuries, researchers have been investigating how the human brain produces and
comprehends human languages. According to ancient Greeks, injuries to the head could affect
language use, which refers to the term aphasia, meaning language problems associated with a head
injury. The best way to examine language in the brain was by checking injuries to the head or brain
and pinpointing their location and then examining the type of language impairment, through a

postmortem examination of a patient’s brain. Much of the brain damage in senior people was the
result of strokes, whereas in younger people the damage was often caused by a trauma. Among
victims, as many people know, a stroke in the right side of the brain affects the left side of the body
and vice versa. Through studying brain injuries, human language is much more present in the left
hemisphere than in the right. Interestingly, bilingual patients with head injuries show that sometimes
one language is affected while the other is not, which illustrates how brain stores language.
Paul Broca, a French surgeon, discovered that speech production was hampered by injuries to
the left frontal cortex. Patients with injuries to the left frontal cortex can frequently comprehend
language well but are unable to produce much speech. This area of the brain has been called Broca’s
area. People suffering from speech loss due to injury there have Broca’s aphasia.
The opposite type of injury also occurs, in which a patient can produce words that sound normal
but is difficult to comprehend speech. Usually the words are mixed together, which really makes no
sense. This region of brain becomes known as Wernicke’s area, named after Karl Wernicke, a
German doctor who found the correlation between comprehension difficulties and this area of the
brain in the 1870s.
Obviously, language production and comprehension are correlated with each other. There is a
bundle of nerves called the arcuate fasciculus that connects Broca’s area to Wernicke’s area. When
the arcuate fasciculus is injured, the resulting aphasia is called conductive aphasia. Patients with the
injury usually have good comprehension of language and can speak well. But their speech is mixed
with unnatural stops and pauses.

47. Where in the brain is speech production positioned?

48. What does the word “trauma” mean?
(A) A birth defect (B) An injury
(C) A blood clot (D) A work of theater
49. What does the word “postmortem” mean?
(A) During surgery (B) That was sick
(C) With computers and monitors (D) After death
50. What is the name of the damaged part that causes conductive aphasia?

(C) The arcuate fasciculus (D) Wernicke’s area
