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 30 to 34

A survey is a study, generally in the form of an interview or a questionnaire that provides

information concerning how people think and act In the United States, the best-known surveys are the Gallup poll and the Harris poll As anyone who watches the news during campaigns presidential knows, these polls have become an important part of political life in the United States North Americans are familiar with the many “person on the street” interviews on local television news shows While such interviews can be highly entertaining, they are not necessarily

an accurate indication

of public opinion First, they reflect the opinions of only those people who appear at a certain location Thus, such examples can be biased in favor of commuters, middle-class shoppers, or factory workers, depending on which area the news people select Second, television interviews

Trang 4

tend to attract outgoing people who are willing to appear on the air, while they frighten away others who may feel intimidated by a camera A survey must be based on a precise,

representative ampling if it is to genuinely reflect a broad range of the population

In preparing to conduct a survey, sociologists must exercise great care in the wording of

questions An effective survey question must be simple and clear enough for people to

understand it It must also be specific enough so that there are no problems in interpreting the results Even questions that are less structured must be carefully phrased in order to elicit the type of information desired Surveys can be indispensable sources of information, but only if the sampling is done properly and the questions are worded accurately

There are two main forms of surveys: the interview and the questionnaire Each of these forms of survey research has its advantages An interview can obtain a high response rate because people find it more difficult to turn down a personal request for an interview than to throw away a written questionnaire In addition, an interviewer can go beyond written questions and probe for

a subject’s underlying feelings and reasons However, questionnaires have the advantage of being cheaper and more consistent

Question 30 In paragraph 2, “they” refers to _

A opinions B news shows C outgoing people D TV interviews

Question 31 According to the passage, one disadvantage of person-on-the-street interviews is that they _

A A are not carefully worded B are not based on a representative sampling

C reflect political opinions D are used only on television

Question 32 According to paragraph 3, two important things for an effective survey are

_

A Properly done samplings and carefully worded questions

B Specific questions and an interviewer’s ability to measure respondents’ feelings

C Simple questions and a high number of respondents

D Understandable questions and a sociologist who is able to interpret the results

Question 33 As can be inferred from the passage, sociologists can be frustrated when

_

A questionnaires are too difficult to read

B respondents are too eager to supplement questions with their own opinions

C respondents often do not complete and return questionnaires

D questionnaires are too expensive and difficult to distribute

Question 34 It can be inferred from the passage that _

A live interviews minimize the influence of the researcher

B live interviews are easier to interpret

Trang 5

C live interviews are better than questionnaires

D both questionnaires and live interviews have their own advantages and disadvantages

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 35 to 42

Industrialization came to the United State after 1790 as North American entrepreneurs increased productivity by reorganizing work and building factories These innovations in manufacturing boosted output and living standards to an unprecedented extent; the average per capita wealth increased by nearly 1 percent per year - 30 percent over the course of a generation Goods that had once been luxury items became part of everyday life The impressive gain in output stemmed primarily from the way in which workers made goods, since the 1790’s, North American

entrepreneurs - even without technological improvements - had broadened the scope of the outwork system that made manufacturing more efficient by distributing materials to a

succession of workers who each performed a single step of the production process For example, during the 1820’s and 1830’s the shoe industry greatly expanded the scale of the outwork system Tens of thousands of rural women, paid according to the amount they produced, fabricated the

“uppers” of shoes, which were bound to the soles by wage-earning journeymen shoemakers in dozens of Massachusetts towns, whereas previously journeymen would have made the enduring shoe This system of production made the employer a powerful “shoe boss” and eroded workers’ control over the pace and conditions of labor However, it also dramatically increased the output

of shoes while cutting their price

For tasks that were not suited to the outwork system, entrepreneurs created an even more

important new organization, the modem factory, which used power-driven machines and

assembly-line techniques to turn out large quantities of well-made goods As early as 1782 the prolific Delaware inventor Oliver Evans had built a highly automated, laborsaving flour mill driven by water power His machinery lifted the grain to the top of the mill, cleaned it as it fell into containers known as hoppers, ground the grain into flour, and then conveyed the flour back

to the top of the mill to allow it to cool as it descended into barrels Subsequently, manufacturers made use of new improved stationary steam engines to power their mills This new technology enabled them to build factories in the nation’s largest cities, taking advantage of urban

concentrations of inexpensive labor, good transportation networks, and eager customers

C It made many employers less powerful than they had been before

D It did not necessarily involve any technological improvements

Question 39 The word “prolific” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to

A famous B productive C self-employed D progressive

A They were located away from large cities

B They used new technology to produce power
