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

As the twentieth century began, the importance of formal education in the United States increased The frontier had mostly disappeared and by 1910 most Americans lived in towns and cities Industrialization and the bureaucratization of economic life combined with a new emphasis upon credentials and expertise to make schooling increasingly important for economic and social mobility Increasingly, too, schools were viewed as the

most important means of integrating immigrants into American society.

The arrival of a great wave of southern and eastern European immigrants at the turn of the

century coincided with and contributed to an enormous expansion of formal schooling By 1920 schooling to age

fourteen or beyond was compulsory in most states, and the school year was greatly lengthened

Kindergartens, vacation schools, extracurricular activities, and vocational education and counseling extended

the influence of public schools over the lives of students, many of whom in the larger industrial cities were the children of immigrants Classes for adult immigrants were sponsored by public schools, corporations, unions, churches, settlement houses, and other agencies

Reformers early in the twentieth century suggested that education programs should suit the needs of specific populations Immigrant women were once such population Schools tried to educate young women so they could occupy productive places in the urban industrial economy, and one place many educators considered appropriate for women was the home

Although looking after the house and family was familiar to immigrant women, American education gave homemaking a new definition In pre-industrial economies, homemaking had meant the production as well as the

consumption of goods, and it commonly included income-producing activities both inside and outside the home,

in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States, however, overproduction rather than scarcity was becoming a problem Thus, the ideal American homemaker was viewed as a consumer rather than a producer Schools trained women to be consumer homemakers cooking, shopping, decorating, and caring for children

"efficiently" in their own homes, or if economic necessity demanded, as employees in the homes of others.

Subsequent reforms have made these notions seem quite out-of-date

Question 45 : The paragraph preceding the passage probably discusses _.

A the most important means of integrating immigrants into American society in the nineteen century

B the urbanization in the United States in the nineteen century

C the industrialization and the bureaucratization of economic life the United States in the 19th century

D the formal schooling in the United States in the nineteen century

Question 46 : It can be inferred from paragraph 1 that one important factor in the increasing importance of

education in the United States was _

A the increased urbanization of the entire country B the expanding economic problems of schools

C the growing number of schools in frontier communities D an increase in the number of trained teachers

Question 47 : The word "means" in line 5 is closest in meaning to _.

Question 48 : The phrase "coincided with" in line 7 is closest in meaning to _.

A ensured the success of B began to grow rapidly

C happened at the same time as D was influenced by

Question 49: According to the passage, one important change in United States education by the 1920's was that

_

A most places required children to attend school B adults and children studied in the same classes

Question 50: “Vacation schools and extracurricular activities” are mentioned in line 9 to illustrate _.

D special programs should be set up in frontier communities to modernize them

Question 53: Women were trained to be consumer homemakers as a result of _.

A overproduction in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States

B economic necessity in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States

C scarcity in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States

D income-producing activities in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States

Question 54: The word “others” in paragraph 4 means _.

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

Our eyes and ears might be called transformers because they sense the light and sound around us and turn

them into electrical impulses that the brain can interpret These electrical impulses that have been transformed by

the eyes and ears reach the brain and are turned into messages that we can interpret For the eye, the process

begins as the eye admits light waves, bends them at the cornea and lens, and then focuses them on the retina At the back of each eye, nerve fibers bundle together to form optic nerves, which join and then split into two optic

tracts Some of the fibers cross so that part of the input from the right visual field goes into the left side of the

brain, and vice versa The process in the ear is carried out through sensory cells that are carried in fluid- filled canals and that are extremely sensitive to vibration Sound that is transformed into electricity travels along nerve

fibers in the auditory never These fibers form a synapse with neurons that carry the messages to the auditory cortex on each side of the brain

Question 55 According to the author, we might call our eyes and ears “transformers” because:

A They sense light and sound C The create electrical impulses

B The brain can interpret the input D The messages travel in the brain
