Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, almost nothing was written about the contributions

of women during the colonial period and the early history of the newly formed United States Lacking the right

to vote and absent from the seats of power, women were not considered an important force in history Anne Bradstreet wrote some significant poetry in the seventeenth century, Mercy Otis Warren produced the best

contemporary history of the American Revolution, and Abigail Adams penned important letters showing she

exercised great political influence over her husband, John, the second President of the United States But little

or no notice was taken of these contributions During these centuries, women remained invisible in history books

Throughout the nineteenth century, this lack of visibility continued, despite the efforts of female authors writing about women These writers, like most of their male counterparts, were amateur historians

Their writings were celebratory in nature, and they were uncritical in their selection and use of sources.

During the nineteenth century, however, certain feminists showed a keen sense of history by keeping records of activities in which women were engaged National, regional, and local women’s organizations compiled accounts of their doings Personal correspondence, newspaper clippings, and souvenirs were saved and stored These sources from the core of the two greatest collections of women’s history in the United States one at the Elizabeth and Arthur Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe College, and the other the Sophia Smith Collection at Smith College Such sources have provided valuable materials for later Generations of historians

Despite the gathering of more information about ordinary women during the nineteenth Century, most of the writing about women conformed to the “great women” theory of History, just as much of mainstream American history concentrated on “great men.” To demonstrate that women were making significant contributions to American life, female authors singled out women leaders and wrote biographies, or else important women produced their autobiographies Most of these leaders were involved in public life as

reformers, activists working for women’s right to vote, or authors, and were not representative at all of the

great of ordinary woman The lives of ordinary people continued, generally, to be untold in the American histories being published

A informative B thoughtful C written at that time D faultfinding

23 In the first paragraph, Bradstreet, Warren, and Adams are mentioned to show that

B even the contributions of outstanding women were ignored

C only three women were able to get their writing published

D poetry produced by women was more readily accepted than other writing by women

24 The word “celebratory” in the 2nd paragraph means that the writings referred to

A related to parties B religious C serious D full of praise

25 The word “they” in the 2nd paragraph refers to

26 In the 2nd paragraph, what weakness in nineteenth-century histories does the author point out?

Little Penguins are the smallest of the 17 species of penguins They are only about 35cm tall This is contrast to the Emperor Penguin, their largest Antarctic cousin, which stands up to 130cm tall Little Penguins used to be called Fairy Penguins Now the name Little Penguins is used because it is a more accurate translation

of their scientific name, Eudyptula minor

The Little Penguins’ dark feathers are not black like other penguins but a deep, rich blue This colour camouflages them from predators whether they hunt the penguins from above or below the ocean surface Like other penguins, Little Penguins have thick waterproof feathers These keep their skin absolutely dry and warm, even after days at sea While at sea, Little Penguins can steep by dozing as they float on the surface Together these characteristics allow Little Penguins to stay at sea for weeks searching for fish

In their search for small fish to eat, Little Penguins usually swim about 15-20 kilometres a day They are powerful swimmers and occasionally may travel even greater distances than this Scientists recorded that one bird had travelled 100 kilometres in a single day! Little Penguins usually dive to about 15 metres chasing fish but one has been recorded at a depth of 65 metres!
