The official residence of the president of the United States is the White House, located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, in Washington, D.C The Commissioners of the District of Columbia held
a meeting in 1792 and decided to hold a contest for the best design for the Presidential House
James Hoban, an architect born in Ireland, was the winner His bid for the construction of the mansion asked for $200,000, but the final cost of the building came to twice that amount The
work on the project began during the same year, and the grounds of approximately one and a
half miles west of the Capitol Hill were chosen by Major Pierre-Charles L’Enfant, who was in charge of city planning However, the construction continued for several more years, and George Washington had stepped down as president before the building was habitable When John Adams, the second president of the United States and his wife Abigail moved in 1800, only six rooms had been completed
The grey sandstone walls of the house were painted white during construction, and the color of the paint gave the building its name The building was burned on August 24, 1814, and James Hoban reconstructed the house for President James Monroe and his family, who moved there in
1817 The north portico was added to the building in 1829, water pipes were installed in 1833, gas lighting in 1848, and electricity in 1891 In 1948, inspectors announced that the building was
so dilapidated that it was beyond repair and suggested that it was cheaper to construct a new one
than repair the existing dwelling However, the national sentiment was to keep the original from intact, and Congress appropriated $5.4 million dollars for repairs In 1961, Jacqueline
Kennedy launched a program to redecorate the rooms and appointed a Fine Arts Committee to
make choices of furnishing and colors
The house of the president accords its residents a great deal of space The living quarters contain
107 rooms, 40 corridors, and 19 baths The White House contains a doctor’s suite, a dentist’s office, a large solarium, a broadcasting room, and a two-floor basement for storage and service rooms The office in which the president works is not located in the White House, but in a separate building called the West Wing The White House stands on 16 acres of park like land and overlooks a broad lawn, flower gardens, and wood groves

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for each of the blanks from 25 to 31
In 1752, Benjamin Franklin made his textbook experiment with a brass key and a silk kite that
he flew in a thunderstorm to prove that lightning and electricity are the same thing In 1920, a kite-flying championship for families and individuals was held in London These two seemingly unrelated events underscore the fact that kites can be flown for both pleasure and scientific purposes For example, in the 1800s weather bureaus flew kites to record temperature and humidity at certain altitudes On one occasion, ten kites were strung together
and flown at a height of four miles to lift men and carry cameras aloft
The kite's ability to fly depends on its construction and the way that its line is attached Tile familiar diamond-shaped kite flies when its covered face is aligned against the wind flow The line attached to the nose of the kite pulls it into the wind, thus creating the necessary angle for the lift force If the kite’s construction and the angle of the air stream are correct, the kite will encounter greater pressure against its face and lower pressure against its back The difference
in the pressure creates a lift that causes the kite to rise until it hangs level from its bridle Its angle against the wind should be sufficiently large or small to create maximum lift to overcome Ixjth drag and gravity The towing point to which the line is attached is important
because it sets the kite’s angle relative to the air flow Although the kite must be headed up
and into the wind with a velocity of 8 to 20 miles per hour, it can maintain its position through
a tail, a rudder, a keel, vents, or tassels

B The kite must be diamond-shaped, and the wind of a certain velocity
C The pressure against its back must be lower than the pressure against its face
D The pressure of the air flow must be lower than the weight of the kite
