 * Listen to the passage. On a piece of paper, take notes on the main points of the listening passage.**
 * //(woman)// You're going to take some classes in the Humanities Department next semester, aren't you, Paul?**
 * //(man)// I'm taking two of them.**
 * //(woman)// I think you're going to sign up for the same two I'm taking.**
 * //(man)// Yeah, we both have the same two classes to take.**
 * //(woman)// Have you gotten a signature yet?**
 * A signature? Whose signature do I have to get?**
 * //(woman)// You have to get your advisor's signature so that you can register for the two humanities courses you want to take.**
 * //(man)// Since when? I've never had to get a signature from my advisor to register for**
 * classes.**
 * //(woman)// There's a new policy, I saw a notice on the door of the Humanities Department office.**
 * I haven't seen the notice. I'll have to go check it out ... but it says that every student has to get an advisor's signature to register for any class?**
 * To register for any class in the Humanities**
 * Department, any class except the**
 * introductory classes.**
 * I guess I'll have to go see my advisor. Me, too.**
 * But first I'm going to go over to the Humanities Department and look at the notice. Listen, thanks for telling me about this,**
 * HOW DOES THE STUDENTS' CONVERSATION ADD TO THE INFORMATION INCLUDED IN THE NOTICE?**

 * Question 4**
 * Listen to the passage. On a piece of paper, take notes on the main points of the listening passage.**
 * //(professor)// I'd like to make a couple of points, now, about nonverbal communication. The first point is that nonverbal communication does not require intent. One can communicate nonverbally without intending to do so. Think about**
 * a student who's feeling bored listening to a professor drone on and on; this student might not want to make his or her boredom clear to the professor, might not want to offend the professor, but perhaps the student's boredom is clear to anyone who looks at him or her.**
 * Now, there's another point I'd like to make about nonverbal communication. This second point is that nonverbal communication doesn't take place automatically simply because one person has tried to communicate nonverbaUy. There has to be communication. If**
 * one person makes a certain gesture or expression, for example, but no one understands it, then no communication has taken place. There is communication only if the gesture or expression is understood.**
 * HOW DOES THE PROFESSOR SUPPLEMENT THE INFORMATIONINCLUDED IN THE READING?**
