V. READING COMPREHENSION
Directions: Read and choose the correct answer for each of the questions.
It is very difficult to succeed in the music business; nine out of ten bands that release a first rec-
ord fail to produce a second. Surviving in the music industry requires luck and patience, but most
of all it requires an intricate knowledge of how a record company functions. The process begins
when a representative of a company's Artists and Repertoire (A & R) department visits bars and
night clubs, scouting for young, talented bands. After the representative identifies a promising
band, he or she will work to negotiate a contract with that band. The signing of this recording
contract is a slow process. A company will spend a long time investigating the band itself as well
as current trends in popular music. During this period, it is important that a band reciprocate with
an investigation of its own, learning as much as possible about the record company and making
personal connections within the different departments that will handle their recordings.
Once a band has signed the contract and has finished recording an album, the Publicity and Pro-
motions department takes over. This department decides whether or not to mass produce and mar-
ket the band's album. Most bands fail to make personal contacts in this second department, thus
losing their voice in the important final process of producing and marketing their album. This loss
of voice often contributes to the band's failure as a recording group.

A. It is important for a band to have an intricate knowledge of how a recording company
works.
B. Nine out of ten bands fail to produce a second record.

motion of their album.
D. The main factors in a band's success are luck and patience.

A. the band's manager. B. an AR representative.
C. a band member. D. the Publicity and Promotions department.

V. READING COMPREHENSION

Dream Jobs: Mona Davis

Mona Davis is sitting in a dark theater, eating a chocolate bar, and laughing very loudly at the
movie. After a few minutes, she takes out a notebook and writes a few words in the dark. For
her, it’s just a normal day at work.
Mona is the movie critic for Tonight Magazine. Every week, she writes about all the new
movies and gives them ratings from **** (excellent) to * (awful). She sees at least two movies
every day, even though she doesn’t write about everything she sees. “I only write reviews of the
most important movies—good or bad!” It’s a dream job, but Mona needed special qualifications
to get it. She studied filmmaking in college and made short movies for her classes. “I’ve always
loved watching movies,” she says. “And it’s fun to see a new movie before anyone has seen it.”
Mona works hard.
Some days, she sees three or even four movies in a row—starting in the afternoon and finishing
at midnight. It’s not always easy to stay awake for the last movie. “Sometimes I need a big cup
of coffee during the evening,” she says. She makes notes about each movie immediately after
she sees it. Then, the next day, she writes her reviews in the afternoon— before going to see
more movies!
The job does have a negative side, too. She often gets e-mails from people if they don’t agree
with her opinions. “Last week,” she says, “a woman sent me a very angry ten-page letter
because I said her favorite actor’s new movie was awful.” But Mona really enjoys her job. She
says, “I’m happy when I can get more attention for movies made by young actors and
filmmakers. Sometimes I can really help their careers. And it’s great that so many people read
my reviews every week in Tonight. I’m not famous, but millions of people enjoy my work!
46. Which of the following might be part of Mona's workday?
A. Eating sweets in a dark theater C. Writing funny stories in her notebook.
B. Going to the movies with friends D. Going out with her friends.

A. Movie critics usually watch one film per day.
B. Movie critics often rate old and new films.

It is very difficult to succeed in the music business; nine out of ten bands that release a
first record fail to produce a second. Surviving in the music industry requires luck and patience,
but most of all it requires an intricate knowledge of how a record company functions. The
process begins when a representative of a company's Artists and Repertoire (A & R) department
visits bars and night clubs, scouting for young, talented bands. After the representative
identifies a promising band, he or she will work to negotiate a contract with that band. The
signing of this recording contract is a slow process. A company will spend a long time
investigating the band itself as well as current trends in popular music. During this period, it is
important that a band reciprocate with an investigation of its own, learning as much as possible
about the record company and making personal connections within the different departments
that will handle their recordings.
Once a band has signed the contract and has finished recording an album, the Publicity
and Promotions department takes over. This department decides whether or not to mass produce
and market the band's album. Most bands fail to make personal contacts in this second
department, thus losing their voice in the important final process of producing and marketing
their album. This loss of voice often contributes to the band's failure as a recording group.

V. READING COMPREHENSION

Directions: Read and choose the correct answer for each of the questions.
 It is very difficult to succeed in the music business; nine out of ten bands that release a
first record fail to produce a second. Surviving in the music industry requires luck and patience,
but most of all it requires an intricate knowledge of how a record company functions. The
process begins when a representative of a company's Artists and Repertoire (A & R) department
visits bars and night clubs, scouting for young, talented bands. After the representative
identifies a promising band, he or she will work to negotiate a contract with that band. The
signing of this recording contract is a slow process. A company will spend a long time
investigating the band itself as well as current trends in popular music. During this period, it is
important that a band reciprocate with an investigation of its own, learning as much as possible
about the record company and making personal connections within the different departments
that will handle their recordings.
Once a band has signed the contract and has finished recording an album, the Publicity
and Promotions department takes over. This department decides whether or not to mass produce
and market the band's album. Most bands fail to make personal contacts in this second
department, thus losing their voice in the important final process of producing and marketing
their album. This loss of voice often contributes to the band's failure as a recording group.

A. It is important for a band to have an intricate knowledge of how a recording
company
works.
B. Nine out of ten bands fail to produce a second record.
C. Making personal connections will help the band in the final decisions about the
promotion of their album.
D. The main factors in a band's success are luck and patience.

A. the band's manager. B. an AR representative.
C. a band member. D. the Publicity and Promotions department.
48. The author mentions that a band's success is dependent on all of the following factors
EXCEPT_________.
A. having patience.
B. making personal contacts with people in the company.
C. playing music that sounds like music of famous bands.
 D. understanding how a record company functions.
49. According to the passage, the Publicity and Promotions department_________.

A. visits bars and night clubs.

B. handles the recording arrangements for the band
C. sends representatives to look for new talent
D. has the final decision in producing an album
