3. The sounds at a medium range from me are someone rummaging through stuff, like a bag or backpack, and the sounds of people talking to each other before our test.
4. The sounds closest to me are chairs squeaking as people move in and out in them and the sounds of pages turning in notebooks and textbooks.
5. The general sound level is moderate and there is a lot of sound activity coming from throughout the classroom.
6. I would describe this sound environment as “anxious”.
