THE PERFORMING ARTS

In the past, British children were frequently encouraged to try out their performing skills for the benefit

of adults They did this by reading aloud, acting or (40) a musical instrument As they (41) up they were taken to public places of entertainment – the theatre, opera, circus or ballet They looked forward to these (42) with great (43) and would remember and discuss what they had seen for many weeks afterwards But nowadays television and computers (44) an endless stream of easily _( 45) entertainment, and children quickly accept these marvelous (46) as a very ordinary part of their everyday lives For many children, the sense of witnessing a very special live performance is gone forever

But all is not lost The (47) of a TV set may have encouraged a very lazy response from ( 48) in their own homes, but the (49) of those with ambitions to become performing artists themselves does not seem to have been at all diminished And live performances in public are still relatively popular, albeit with an older, more specialist audience

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 following questions from 50 to 59.

Although speech is the most advanced form of communication, there are many ways of communicating without using speech Signals, signs, symbols, and gestures may be found in every known

culture The basic function of signal is to i m p i n ge up on the environment in such a way that it

attracts attention, as For example, the dots and dashes of a telegraph circuit Coded to refer to

speech, the p o te n tial for communication is very great Less adaptable to the codification of words, signs

also contain meaning in and of themselves A stop sign or a barber pole conveys meaning quickly and conveniently Symbols are more difficult to describe than either signals or signs because of their

i n t r ica t e relationship with the receiver‟s cultural perceptions In some cultures, applauding in a theater provides performers with an auditory symbol of approval Gestures such as waving and handshaking also communicate certain cultural messages

Although signals, signs, symbols, and gestures are very useful, they do have a major disadvantage They usually do not allow ideas to be shared without the sender being directly adjacent to the receiver As

a result, means of communication intended to be used for long distances and extended periods are based upon speech Radio, television, and the telephone are only a few

A prohibit B intrude C vary D improve

A way B environment C function D signal

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 following questions from 60 to 64.

In the mid – nineteenth century, the United States had tremendous natural resources that could be exploited in order to develop heavy industry Most of the raw materials that are valuable in the manufacture of machinery, transportation facilities, and consumer goods lay ready to be worked into wealth Iron, coal, and oil – the basic ingredients of industrial growth – were plentiful and needed only the application of technical expertise, organizational skill, and labor

One crucial development in this movement toward industrialization was the growth of the railroads The railway network expanded rapidly until the railroad map of the United States looked like a spider‟s web, with the steel filaments connecting all important sources of raw materials, their places of manufacture, and their centers of distribution The railroads contributed to the industrial growth not only

by connecting these major centers, but also by t h e m s e lv e s consuming enormous amounts of fuel, iron,

and coal

Many factors influenced emerging modes of production For example, machine tools, the tools used to make goods, were steadily improved in the latter part of the nineteenth century – always with an eye to speedier production and lower unit costs The products of the factories were rapidly absorbed by the growing cities that sheltered the workers and the distributors The increased urban population was nourished by the increased farm production that, in turn, was made more productive by the use of the new farm machinery American agricultural production kept up with the urban demand and still had surpluses for sale to the industrial centers of Europe

The labor that ran the factories and built the railways was recruited in part from American farm

areas where people were being displaced by farm machinery, in part from Asia, and in part from Europe Europe now began to send tides of immigrants from eastern and southern Europe – most of whom were originally poor farmers but who settled in American industrial cities The money to finance this tremendous expansion of the American economy still came from European financiers for the most part, but the American were approaching the day when their expansion could be financed in their own “ money market”

Question 60: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A The history of railroads in the United States

B The major United States industrial centers

C Factors that affected industrialization in the United States

D The role of agriculture in the nineteenth century

Question 61: The word “ themselves” in the paragraph 2 refers to _

A sources B centers C railroads D places

Question 62: According to the passage, all of the following were true of railroads in the United States in

the nineteenth century EXCEPT that

A they connected important industrial cities

B they were necessary to the industrialization process

C they were expanded in a short time

D they used relatively small quantities of natural resources

Question 63: Which of the following in NOT true of United States farmers in the nineteenth century?

A They lost some jobs because of mechanization

B They were unable to produce sufficient food for urban areas

C They raised their productivity by using new machinery

D They sold food to European countries

Question 64: The word “ ran” in the paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to

A operated B hurried C constructed D owned
