A number of factors related to the voice reveal the personality of the speaker. The first is the broad area
of communication, which includes imparting information by use of language, communicating with a group or
an individual and specialized communication through performance. A person conveys thoughts and ideas
through choice of words, by a tone of voice that is pleasant or unpleasant, gentle or harsh, by the rhythm that
is inherent within the language itself, and by speech rhythms that are flowing and regular or uneven and
hesitant, and finally, by the pitch and melody of the utterance. When speaking before a group, a person's tone
may indicate uncertainty or fright, confidence or calm. At interpersonal levels, the tone may reflect ideas and
feelings over and above the words chosen, or may belie them. Here the participant's tone can consciously or
unconsciously reflect intuitive sympathy or antipathy, lack of concern or interest, fatigue, anxiety, enthusiasm
or excitement, all of which are .usually discernible by the acute listener. Public performance is a manner of
communication that is highly specialized with its own techniques for obtaining effects by voice and /or
gesture. The motivation derived from the text, and in the case of singing, the music, in combination with the
performer's skills, personality, and ability to create empathy will determine the success of artistic, political, or
pedagogic communication.

 Second, the voice gives psychological clues to a person's self-image, perception of others, and emotional
health. Self-image can be indicated by a tone of voice that is confident, pretentious, shy, aggressive, outgoing,
or exuberant, to name only a few personality traits. Also the sound may give a clue to the facade or mask of
that person, for example, a shy person hiding behind an overconfident front. How a speaker perceives the
listener's receptiveness, interest, or sympathy in any given conversation can drastically alter the tone of
presentation, by encouraging or discouraging the speaker. Emotional health is evidenced in the voice by free
and melodic sounds of the happy, by constricted and harsh sound of the angry, and by dull and lethargic
qualities of the depressed.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.
We live in a world that flees from suffering. Since the time of our youth, we do not fully value a thing
until we lose it. We often value the love and worth of a friend when he has been taken from us by death more
than when he was with us in the flesh; it is only when we have left school or college that we understand the
greatness of our opportunity of education, which has gone forever; and it is the sick and the ailing who realize
the value of good health. When we are young and strong, we cannot imagine what it is to be weak and ailing.
We are so used to vigorous health that we take it for granted. The organs of our body work so smoothly that
we scarcely know we have lungs and livers, hearts and stomachs. But when any of these gets upset and give
us pain and sickness, we learn by bitter experience what an unspeakable it is to be well.
Loss of health makes us miserable and it is a burden to ourselves and our friends. It cripples our efforts so
that we cannot accomplish many of the good and great things we might have done. It spoils our life. What
must we do to keep our health? We must be moderate in eating and drinking, and wise in the choice of plain,
wholesome, simple food. Gluttony has killed thousands and strong drink has skilled tens of thousands. We
must, when young, get plenty of sleep, which is nature's sweet restorer, and not try to burn the candle at both
ends. We must live as much as possible in the open air and keep our rooms well ventilated. We must get
sufficient and regular physical exercise, and keep our bodies clean. We must avoid bad habits and secret sins
as we avoid the devil and keep our thoughts clean and our bodies pure. Our ideal must be the sound mind in
the sound body.
