Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for each of the question: Text 1 (Line) Until recently, growth hormone could only be obtained from the pituitary glands of the dead people. This substance is used to treat children who did not produce enough of their own growth hormone and who would, therefore, grow up as dwarfs. The natural product was taken off the market after it was linked to a brain disease which attacked some of treatment with it. But now, (5) a new synthetic growth hormone has been developed which, it is claimed, has no dangerous side effects. The new drug is called “ Somatrem” and can be produced in unlimited quantities. For children who are deficient in their own growth hormone, Somatrem is an important medical advance. The problem is that the drug may be abused by people who are not medically in need of its benefits. For example, athletes may take the drug in the belief that it will improve their (10) physique and physical performance. Parents may want to obtain the drug for their children who are only marginally under average height. For such reasons, experts are recommending that registers be kept of 4 Somatrem recipients.

These studies have disclosed that the judgments of interviewers differ markedly and bear little or no relationship to the adequacy of the job applicants. Of the many reasons why this should be the case, three in particular stand out. (5) The first reason is related to an error of judgement known as the halo effect . If a person has one noticeable good trait, their other characteristics will be judged as better than they really are. Thus, an individual who dresses smartly and shows self- confidence is likely to be judged capable of doing a job well regardless of his or her real ability. Interviewers are also prejudiced by an effect called the primacy effect. This error (10) occurs when interpretation of later information is distorted by earlier connected information. Hence, in an interview situation, the interviewer spends most of the interview trying to confirm the impression given by the candidate in the first few moments. Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that such an impression is unrelated to the aptitude of the applicant. (15) The phenomenon known as the contrast effect also skews the judgment of interviewers. Asuitable candidate may be underestimated because he or she contrasts with a previous one who 5 appears exceptionally intelligent. Likewise, an average candidate who is preceded by one who gives a weak showing may be judged as more suitable than he or she really is. Since interviews as a form of personnel selection have been shown to be inadequate, other selection procedures have been devised which more accurately predict candidate (22) suitability. Of the various tests devised, the predictor which appears to do this most succussfully is cognitive ability as measured by a variety of verbal and spatial tests. 61. This passage mainly discusses the A. effects of interviewing on job applicants. B. Inadequacy of interviewing job applicants. C. Judgments of interviewers concerning job applicants. D. Techniques that interviewers use for judging job applicants. 62. The word “hindrance” in line 2 is closest in meaning to A. encouragement B. assistance C. procedure D. interference 63.

According to the passage, the hallo effect A. stands out as the worst judgmental error B. takes effect only when a candidate is well dressed C. examplifies how one good characteristic color perceptions D. helps the interviewer’s capability to judge real ability 65. The word “confirm” in line 12 is closest in meaming to A. verify B. conclude C. recollect D. misrepresent 66. According to the passage the first impression A. can easily be altered B. is the one that stays with the interviewer C. is unrelated to the interviewer’s prejudices D. has been repeatedly demonstrated to the applicant 67. The word “skews” in line 15 is closest in meaning to A. biases B. opposes C. improves D. distinguishes 68. The word “ this” in line 22 refers to A. devisse personnel selection B. measure cognitive ability C. predict candidate suitability D. devise accurate tests 69.
