Which of the following statements describes hearing?
a. hearing occurs only occasionally.
b. hearing can take place without conscious effort.
c. hearing requires you to ask questions.
d. can choose whether or not you will hear information.

The answer is b. Hearing can take place without conscious effort. For most people--except for those with hearing impairment--hearing is a sense they have no control over; whatever sound waves come in the area can reach your eardrum, and your brain will interpret that and make sense of the vibrations that reached your ear.
