    The document is a listening test with two sections. Section 1 contains personal details about a MBA applicant, including her name, date of birth, address, contact number, and mobile number. It also asks questions about her current job, previous degree completed, possible reasons for not being accepted to the MBA program, and which department will contact her. Section 2 asks questions about a speaker's discussion on women's lifestyles and how goods like dishwashers and microwaves have given us more leisure time. Wealthier societies become more demanding and the "race of acquisition" encourages buying unnecessary goods.
