Mr. Roca's Disappointment

PARI A

El sefior Roca era gerente de una compaflia grande. El ganaba mucho dinero pero no
partes
gastarlo para tener las cornodidades de la vida. En el trabajo tenia que viajar mucho a diferentes
del mundo. Cuando viajaba siempre se quedaba en el hotel m6s barato que encontraba. A veces,
estos
hoteles estaban en mala tondici6ny los empleados eran muy desagradables. Sin embargo, al seflor Roca
no le importaba nada. Solamente queria saber que no tenia una cuenta grande cuando estaba listo para
salir.

PART B

Una noche cuando lleg6 a la ciudatl de San Pablo, una ciuiad completamente desconocida para 61,
record6 que le habian dicho que en esa ciudadlos cuartos en los pisos m6s altos costaban menos. Decidi6
buscar el hotel m6s alto y como no queria pagar el taxi, decidi6 caminar.

Cuando lleg6 al hotel estaba_ cansado, pero pensaba que en un hotel de'cuarenta pisos, pagaia
muy poco dinero. Lleg6 sin aliento y le dijo a la recepcionista:

- Seflorita, me gustaria una habitaci6n en el piso cuarenta, por favor.

Ella le dijo:

- Lo siento mucho seflor, pero todas las habitaciones en ese piso ya estSn ocupadas.

lPobre seflor Roca!

The Birthday Party

PARTA

El sábado pasado Manuel celebró su décimo cumpleaños. Por primera vez quería celebrar
la ocasión con una fiesta. Por eso, sus padres decidieron invitar a todos los amigos de su clase,
de su vecindad y a su profesora de español. Planificaron con placer la fiesta porque Manuel es
una persona bondadosa, aplicada, y siempre recibe buenas notas.

PART B

Durante la primera parte del día Manuel visitó a su abuelo, quien le dio un montón de
regalos que incluía el ordenador que Manuel quería desde hacía mucho tiempo. Al regresar a
casa, Manuel estaba muy sorprendido porque la casa estaba muy bien decorada y su familia había
preparado mucha comida y muchas bebidas. Cuando llegaron los invitados todos comieron y
bebieron lo que quisieron y por eso todos lo pasaron bien.

INSTRUCTIONS TO TEACHERS

The passage should be read at a normal pace, the first and last (complete) readings
each taking approximately 1½ minutes. The reading should be done in such a way as
to convey changes of voice (in dialogue, for example), but explanatory gestures are not
permitted. The title in English is to be read to candidates.

(The teacher should read the following instructions aloud to candidates immediately
before the text.)

Listen carefully to the following instructions:

I shall read the passage straight through once. Listen carefully while I read.

I shall then instruct you to look at the questions in English on the text. You will
be allowed three minutes to read the questions and make notes. There are two groups of
questions.

I shall read the passage again, but this time in two parts. When I have finished reading
Part A (but not before), you will be given five minutes in which to select your answers for
the first group of questions. You must select the BEST answer and shade the corresponding
space on the answer sheet provided. This procedure will then be repeated for Part B.

I shall then read the passage a third time, straight through, after which you will be
