You must disregard them, and consider only the sounds thatare the same as those you heard in the previous experiments.Superimposed on each setof telephone noises there is a pair of soundsof the type thatyou heard previously. Your task is to say whether themembersof the pairs are the same or different. If you don't knowwhether the members of the pair are the same or different, just guess.[Hint:Most people guess.]
