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 28 to 34.

Cities develop as a result of functions that they can perform Some functions result directly from the

ingenuity of the citizenry, but most functions result from the needs of the local area and of the

surrounding hinterland (the region that supplies goods to the city and to which the city furnishes services and other goods) Geographers often make a distinction between the situation and the site of a city Situation refers to the general position in relation to the surrounding region, whereas site involves physical characteristics of the specific location Situation is normally much more important to the continuing prosperity of a city If a city is well situated in regard to its hinterland, its development is much more likely to continue Chicago, for example, possesses an almost unparalleled situation: it is located at the southern end of a huge lake that forces east-west transportation lines to be compressed into its vicinity, and at a meeting of significant land and water transport routes It also overlooks what is one

of the world’s finest large farming regions These factors ensured that Chicago would become a great city regardless of the disadvantageous characteristics of the available site, such as being prone to flooding during thunderstorm activity

Similarly, it can be argued that much of New York City’s importance stems from its early and continuing advantage of situation Philadelphia and Boston both originated at about the same time as New York and shared New York’s location at the western end of one of the world’s most important oceanic trade routes, but only New York possesses an easy-access functional connection (the Hudson-Mohawk lowland) to the vast Midwestern hinterland This account does not alone explain New York’s primacy, but it does include several important factors Among the many aspects of situation that help to explain why some cities grow and others do not, original location on a navigable waterway seems particularly applicable Of course, such characteristic as slope drainage, power resources, river crossings, coastal shapes, and other physical characteristics help to dertermine city location, but such factors are normally more significant in early stages of city development than later

Question 28 What does the passage mainly discuss?

A The development of trade routes through United States cities

B Contrasts in settlement patterns in United States

C Historical differences among three large United States cities

D The importance of geographical situation in the growth of United States cities

Question 29 The word “ingenuity” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _.

A wealth B resourcefulness C traditions D organization

Trang 4

Question 30: According to the passage, a city’s situation is more important that its site in regard to the

city’s _

A long-term growth and prosperity

B ability to protect its citizenry

C possession of favorable weather conditions

D need to import food supplies

Question 31 The author mentions each of the following as an advantage of Chicago’s location EXCEPT

its _

C position in regard to transport routes D flat terrain

Question 32 The primary purpose of paragraph 1 is to _.

A summarize past research and introduce a new study

B describe a historical period

C emphasize the advantages of one theory over another

D define a term and illustrate it with an example

Question 33 According to the passage, Philadelphia and Boston are similar to New York City in

_

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.

In the North American colonies, red ware, a simple pottery fired at low temperatures, and stone ware, a strong, impervious grey pottery fired at high temperatures, were produced from two different native clays These kinds of pottery were produced to supplement imported European pottery When the American Revolution (1775-1783) interrupted the flow of the superior European ware, there was incentive for American potters to replace the imports with comparable domestic goods Stoneware, which

had been simple utilitarian kitchenware, grew increasingly ornate throughout the nineteenth century, and

in addition to the earlier scratched and drawn designs, threedimensional molded relief decoration became popular Representational motifs largely replaced the earlier abstract decorations Birds and flowers were particularly evident, but other subjects -lions, flags, and clipper ships -are found Some figurines, mainly of dogs and lions, were made in this medium Sometimes a name, usually that of the potter, was die-stamped onto a piece

As more and more large kilns were built to create the high-fired stoneware, experiments revealed that the same clay used to produce low-fired red ware could produce a stronger, paler pottery if fired at a hotter temperature The result was yellow ware, used largely for serviceable items; but a further development was Rockingham ware -one of the most important American ceramics of the nineteenth

century (The name of the ware was probably derived from its resemblance to English brown-glazed earthenware made in South Yorkshire.) It was created by adding a brown glaze to the fired clay, usually

giving the finished product a mottled appearance Various methods of spattering or sponging the glaze

Trang 5

onto the ware account for the extremely wide variations in color and add to the interest of collecting

Rockingham An advanced form of Rockingham was flint enamel, created by dusting metallic powders onto the Rockingham glaze to produce brilliant varicolored streaks

Articles for nearly every household activity and ornament could be bought in Rockingham ware: dishes and bowls, of course; also bedpans, foot warmers, cuspidors, lamp bases, doorknobs, molds, picture frames, even curtain tiebacks All these items are highly collectible today and are eagerly sought

A few Rockingham specialties command particular affection among collectors and correspondingly high prices

A was decorated with simple, abstract designs

B used three-dimensional decorations

C was valued for its fancy decorations

D had no decoration

Question 37 How did yellow ware achieve its distinctive color?

A By sponging on a glaze B By dusting on metallic powders

C By brown-glazing D By firing at a high temperature
