The Art World
One of the major problems in the art world is how to distinguish and promote an artist In effect, a market must be created for an artist to be successful The practice of signing and numbering individual prints was introduced by James Abbott McNeill Whistler, the nineteenth-century artist best known for the painting of his mother, called "Arrangement in Grey and Black", but known to most of US as "Whistler's Mother" Whistler's
brother-in-law, Sir Francis Seymour Haden, a less well-known artist, had speculated that collectors might find
prints more attractive if they knew that there were only a limited number of copies produced By signing the work in pencil, an artist could guarantee and personalize each print
As soon as Whistler and Haden began the practice of signing and numbering their prints, their work began
to increase in value When other artists noticed that the signed prints commanded higher prices, they began copying the procedure
Although most prints are signed on the right-hand side in the margin below the image, the placement of the signature is a matter of personal choice Indeed, prints have been signed within image, in any of the margins, or
Trang 3even on the reverse side of the print Wherever the artist elects to sign it, a signed print is still valued above an
unsigned one, even in the same edition

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
Less than a year ago marketing director, David Smith, 33 was behaving like a secret agent He used to secretly tape all his conversations, he refused to sign his name and he would ask his secretary to check all his
emails Anything he wrote was photocopied and kept as “evidence” But David isn’t mad, or even mildly
eccentric He suffers from “responsibility OCD”, one of more common form of obsessive-compulsive disorder,
or OCD, as it is usually known
OCD is now recognized as the second most prevalent mental-health problem, after depression – and the number of reported cases is soaring Experts estimate that 2% - 3% of the population suffer from the full-blown syndrome, with as many as one in five suffering from a milder form
OCD sufferers are tortured by obsessional thoughts, such as worrying that their hands are contaminated
by germs The terrible anxiety is only relieved by performing a particular set of behaviors Unfortunately, any sense of relief is short-lived, which is why the behavior must be repeated again and again OCD sufferers know their behavior is irrational, yet feel powerless to stop
Common treatments are either antidepressants or behavioral therapy with a psychologist, but only 60%
of patients show some improvement However, a new treatment from America is bringing fresh hope to sufferers
One of the OCD gurus and neuropsychiatrists, Jeffrey Schwartz, has designed the Four Steps program which
employs meditation techniques with the aim of teaching sufferers to manage their symptoms by themselves.
“The goal is to learn to override false brain messages”, explains Schwartz
There are different theories about what causes the disorder Most experts recognize a genetic element that can be triggered by a stressful event Schwartz believes that the OCD “worry circuit” is a direct result of faulty brain chemistry “When someone experiences an OCD thought, one part of the brain knows quite clearly that the hand are not dirty”, explains Schwartz “Some part of the brain is standing apart from the symptoms, reflecting on the sheer bizarreness of it all The objective is to harness this impartial spectator so that patients can use this healthy part of their brain to resist the compulsions.”
“David Smith is delighted with the results of Schwartz’s treatment Now I can sign cheques without a problem”, he says brightly “And I don’t photocopy them either OCD used to feel like a huge stigma, but I don’t feel handicapped by it any more You just deal with it.”
