Read the texts from an article, For five questions, match each rule (1 to 5) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answer on your ANSWER SHEET.
Bob Davis:
It was so loud that I couldn’t hear my own voice. You see, I had a terrible headache. I couldn’t sleep at all that night. I just tossed and turned. In the morning I phoned the police, but they said they couldn’t do anything about it. Why not? Don’t I have a right to peace and quiet inside my own home? I tell you, next time the van comes, I am going to get a hammer and smash its windows.
Mr. White:
Making a noise isn’t a crime, so I can’t prevent it. Mr. Davis should complain to the ice-cream company. I’m sure they would agree to turn down the volume a little, for the sake of good public relations. I mean, if he starts smashing windows, I’ll have to arrest him, however much I sympathize with you.
Mr. Bolton:
Of course we have to make a noise. If we didn’t, the kids wouldn’t know we were there, would you? And then they wouldn’t get their ice-creams. I mean, we have to make a living, don’t we? Besides, everyone knows our jingle and they love it. It is one of the most popular sounds in town. If Mr. Davis doesn’t like it, he can just close his windows.
Mrs. Green:
There are plenty of ice-cream shops in town. Anyone who wants to buy an ice-cream can go and buy one from the shop. Why should we all put up with that terrible noise just so a few people can buy their ice-creams without going to the shop? I mean, what would happen if I sold my fruit the same way? Or all the other shopkeepers? The noise would be unbearable, wouldn’t it? We would all go deaf, wouldn’t we? It seems to me the ice-cream company is making money at everyone else’s expense.
Mr. Croft:
We’re following a very old tradition. For thousands of years merchants in this city have identified themselves with individual sounds: bells, whistles, shouts and so on. We’ve chosen a nice tune which children can remember. Our jingle is one of many natural neighbor hood sounds. For example: church bells, school singing, cheering at football matches and so on. Well, it isn’t noisy and it’s not unpleasant. If making a noise were a crime, then car horns, washing machines and road drills would all be forbidden.
Now match each of the schools to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.
[A] The ice-cream van should stop making such noise and the ice-cream company is making money at everyone else’s expense.
[B] A policeman can’t arrest those who make a noise, but he will arrest those if they start smashing the windows of the ice-cream van.
[C] Some people perhaps get used to the noise around them but a lot of people can’t and don’t.
[D] I can’t stand the noise and I have a right to peace and quiet inside my own home?
[E] Very loud noises can cause brain damage and nervous diseases.
[F] I have to play a jingle to attract the children’s attention, I mean, we have to make a living.
[G] Using a familiar sound to attract customers is an old tradition, and I don’t agree that the jingle the company has chosen is noisy and unpleasant.
( ) Mr. White
