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 36 to 42.
Until recently, most American entrepreneurs were men Discrimination against women in business, the demands of caring for families, and lack of business training had kept the number
of women entrepreneurs small Now, however, businesses owned by women account for more than $40 billion in annual revenues, and this figure is likely to continue rising throughout the 1990s As Carolyn Doppelt Gray, an official of the Small Business Administration, has noted,
“The 1970s was the decade of women entering management, and the 1980s turned out to be the decade of the woman entrepreneur" What are some of the factors behind this trend? For one thing, as more women earn advanced degrees in business and enter the corporate world, they are finding obstacles Women are still excluded from most executive suites Charlotte Taylor, a management consultant, had noted, "In the 1970s women believed if they got an MBA and
worked hard they could become chairman of the board Now they've found out that isn't going to
happen, so they go out on their own"
In the past, most women entrepreneurs worked in "women's" fields: cosmetics and clothing, for example But this is changing Consider ASK Computer Systems, a $22-million-a-year computer software business, it was founded in 1973 by Sandra Kurtzig, who was then a housewife with degrees in math and engineering When Kurtzig founded the business, her first
product was software that let weekly newspapers keep tabs on their newspaper carriers-and her
office was a bedroom at home, with a shoebox under the bed to hold the company's cash, After she succeeded with the newspaper software system, she hired several bright computer-science graduates to develop additional programs When these were marketed and sold, ASK began to grow It now has 200 employees, and Sandra Kurtzig owns $66.9 million of stock
Of course, many women who start their own businesses fail, just as men often do They
still face hurdles in the business world, especially problems in raising money; the banking and
finance world is still dominated by men, and old attitudes die hard Most businesses owned by women are still quite small But the situation is changing; there are likely to be many more Sandra Kurtzigs in the years ahead

Question 38 In line 11, "that" refers to .

The growth of cities, the construction of hundreds of new factories, and the spread of railroads in the United Stases before 1850 had increased the need for better illumination But the lighting in American homes had improved very little over that of ancient times Through the colonial period, homes were lit with tallow candles or with a lamp of the kind used in ancient Rome- a dish of fish oil or other animal or vegetable oil in which a twisted rag served as a wick
Trang 6Some people used lard, but they had to heat charcoal underneath to keep it soft and burnable.
The sperm whale provided superior burning oil, but this was expensive In 1830 a new substance
called "camphene" was patented, and it proved to be an remained expensive, had an unpleasant odor, and also was dangerously explosive
Between 1830 and 1850 it seemed that the only hope for cheaper illumination in the United States was the wider use of gas In the 1840s American gas manufacturers adopted improved British techniques for producing illuminating gas from coal But the expense of piping gas to the consumer remained so high that until mid- century gas lighting was feasible only in urban areas, and only for public buildings for the wealthy In 1854 a Canadian doctor, Abraham Gesner, patented a process for distilling a pitch like mineral found in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia that produced illuminating gas and an oil that he called "kerosene" (from
"keros", the Greek word for wax, and "ene" because it resembled camphene) Kerosene, though cheaper than camphene, had an unpleasant odor, and Gesner never made his fortune from it But
Gesner had aroused a new hope for making illuminating oil from a product coming out of North American mines

Question 48 According to the passage, what advantage did the kerosene patented by Gesner
have over camphene?
A Kerosene had a more pleasant smell B Kerosene was less expensive.
C Kerosene burned more brightly D Kerosene was safer to use.
