Instructions ›
You will see a video about the Model United Nations (MUN) procedures and roles. Listen to the recording and answer the question by selecting all the correct responses. You will need to select more than one response.
Speaker 1
Hello we are the model United Nations Working group in Ukraine and today we are going to be demonstrating the flow of debate and model United Nations procedures for a model UN committee. Today we are using the United Nations Security Council as an example, but this can be used for any committee. We have a chair and four delegates.
Speaker
I am a delegate. I am representing Peoples Republic of China.
Speaker 2
I am the chair. I moderate debate and tell delegates when they may. That not everyone talks at the same time, I sometimes also have a secretary. They keep track of time for speaking, and caucuses keep track of the speakers list and other tasks that chair needs help with. They sometimes are called a Co. Chair. Additionally, at an event, there can also be a Secretary General. They are in charge of all committees at a conference camp or other. Event in real life they are the head of the United Nations. In Mung they don't really do much directly in committee unless there are problems between delegates and and chairs.

Option 2: "The chair moderates debate and ensures orderly conduct."

Explanation: This option is correct as it aligns with the text, which states that the chair moderates the debate and ensures that delegates do not speak at the same time. This reflects the chair's role in maintaining order during discussions.

Option 1: "The delegate represents a country and moderates the debate."

Explanation: This option is incorrect because while it correctly states that the delegate represents a country, it inaccurately claims that the delegate moderates the debate. The text specifies that the chair is responsible for moderating the debate, not the delegate.

Option 3: "The secretary keeps track of speaking time and the speakers list."

Explanation: This option is correct because the text mentions that the secretary helps keep track of time for speaking and manages the speakers list. This accurately describes the responsibilities of the secretary in the Model United Nations procedures.

Option 4: "The Co-Chair handles all committee tasks independently."

Explanation: This option is incorrect as it suggests that the Co-Chair operates independently. The text indicates that the Co-Chair assists the chair with tasks, implying a collaborative role rather than an independent one.

Option 5: "The Secretary General oversees all committees and addresses conflicts."

Explanation: This option is correct because the text states that the Secretary General is in charge of all committees at a conference and addresses problems between delegates and chairs, which aligns with the responsibilities outlined in this option.
