As Christmas evolved in the United States, new customs were adopted and many old ones were reworked The legend of Santa Claus, for example, had origins in Europe and was brought by Dutch settlers to New York in the early 18th century Traditionally, Santa Claus – from the Dutch Sinter Klaas

Trang 5

– was depicted as a tall, dignified, religious figure riding a white horse through the air Known as Saint Nicholas in Germany, he was usually accompanied by Black Peter, an elf who punished disobedient children In North America he eventually developed into a fat, jolly old gentleman who had neither the

religious attributes of Saint Nicholas nor the strict disciplinarian character of Black Peter

Santa’s transformation began in 1823, when a New York newspaper published the poem A Visit

from Saint Nicholas, which Clement Clark Moore had written to amuse his daughter The poem

introduced many Americans to the story of a kindly saint who flew over housetops in a reindeer-drawn sleigh Portraits and drawings of Santa Claus by American illustrator Thomas Nast further strengthened the legend during the second half of the 19th century Living at the North Pole and assisted by elves, the modern Santa produced and delivered toys to all good children By the late 19th century he had become

such a prominent figure of American folklore that in 1897, when Virginia O’Hanlon wrote to the New

York Sun newspaper asking if Santa was real, she received a direct answer: “Yes, Virginia, there is a

Santa Claus”

My lawyer, Mr Turner, is the only man I know who has seen a ghost He is a quiet even-tempered man whose life is spent in dealing with facts He is the last person in the world to give way to fantasy

He has a wife and two children of whom he is proud, takes a modest holiday abroad every year and spends his Sundays gardening He is knowledgeable about art and architecture, though he doesn't

pretend to be an expert by any means It is, therefore, all the more surprising that he should so insistent about the ghost It happened, so he says, like this:

He was travelling2 from London to the North of England by train It was a misty November

evening and the train was half empty In fact for the first part of the journey Mr Turner had the carriage

to himself and sat dozing over a newspaper However at the first stop a passenger jumped in, slamming the door behind him He seemed out of breath as if he had been running He was a striking looking young man with dark, bushy hair and bright intelligent eyes He was dressed rather oddly in a long waisted coat with silver buttons, tight trousers and an embroidered waistcoat Mr Turner did not pay much attention to this because people wear all sorts of extravagant clothes these days and he had long grown accustomed to them

Presently, the two men got into conversation, as people do on long journeys Mr Turner was

interested to cover that the young man was very knowledgeable about Art - in particular portraits His name, he said, was Joseph Hart, and he was on his way to visit an exhibition It seemed that he worked

in a famous London Art Gallery - a picture restorer, perhaps, thought Mr Turner, for he seemed to know

a great deal about varnishes and paints, and even more about the subjects of certain portraits When Mr Turner asked his opinion of the portrait of a famous judge by an artist he admired, his companion

laughed and said, “He’s only a reproduction - a good one I agree but you can't talk to a reproduction.”

He spoke as though the person in the portrait were still living

After a while the carriage got hot and steamy and Mr Turner dropped off He woke up just as the train was drawing up at a junction with a grinding of brakes His companion had disappeared

A few days later, having returned to London, Mr Turner found himself near the Art Gallery Moved

by some impulse, he went in and enquired for Joseph Hart The attendant directed him to a room

devoted to early nineteenth century portraits of well-known men There was no-one in the room and Mr Turner looked about him Without knowing quite how he had got there, he found himself standing in front of a full-length portrait of a dark young man in tight trousers and an embroidered waistcoat The

eyes smiled at him with a hint of amusement The name-plate at the foot of the picture read: Joseph

Hart, Gentleman, 1800-1835

C âu 71 What kind of person was Mr Turner?

A insensitive B fantastic C imaginative D sensible

C â u 72 Although he was a lawyer, Mr Turner

A knew something about Art

B pretended to know a lot about Art

C pretended to take an interest in Art

Trang 7

D intended to learn more about Art

C âu 73 When the passenger entered Mr Turner’s compartment

A the train was just leaving B he was running

C he was painting D the carriage was half-empty

C âu 74 The passenger’s clothes didn’t seem strange to Mr Turner because

A everyone he knew wore strange clothes

B he liked people who wore strange clothes

C he had seen a lot of people in strange clothes

D he was used to wearing strange clothes

C âu 75 Mr Turner thought the young man might

A be an Art Expert B renew old pictures

C be an Art Dealer D paint reproductions of old pictures

C â u 76 Why wouldn’t the passenger give an opinion on the portrait of the judge?

A the picture was a copy B the judge was still alive

C the judge wasn’t alive D he hadn’t seen it

C â u 77 When did Mr Turner first realize that the passenger had gone?

A Just before the train stopped

B After the train had stopped

C When the train started

D When the train was leaving the station

C â u 78 Why did Mr Turner go into the Art Gallery?

A He was walking past there B He had never been there before

C He had planned to do so D He suddenly decided to

C â u 79 In the past of the gallery that Mr Turner was directed to

A he only saw one portrait

B there were a lot of nineteenth century people

C there were a lot of pictures by unknown people

D no-one else was looking at the pictures

C â u 80 When Mr Turner looked at the portrait of Joseph Hart
