VI.Read the passage and answer the question that follow
(4)accompanied by piano improvisations on popular tunes At first, the music played bore no special relationship to the films ; an accompaniment of any kind was sufficient
Within a very short time, however, the incongruity of playing lively music to a solemn film became apparent, and film pianists began to take some care in matching their pieces to the mood of the film
As movie theaters grew in number and importance, a violinist, and perhaps a cellist, would be added to the pianist in certain cases, and in the larger movie theaters small orchestras were formed For a number of years the selection of music for each film program rested entirely in the hands of the conductor or leader of the orchestra, and very often the principal qualification for holding such a position was not skill or taste
so much as the ownership of a large personal library of musical pieces Since the conductor seldom saw the films until the night before they were to be shown (if, indeed, the conductor was lucky enough to see them then), the musical arrangement was normally improvised in the greatest hurry
To help meet this difficulty, film distributing companies started the practice of publishing suggestions for musical accompaniments In 1909, for example, the Edison Company began issuing with their films such indications of mood as "pleasant," "sad," "lively." The suggestions became more explicit, and so emerged the musical cue sheet containing indications of mood, the titles of suitable pieces of music, and precise directions to show where one piece led into the next
Certain films had music especially composed for them The most famous of these early special scores was that composed and arranged for D.W Griffith's film Birth of a Nation, which was released in 1915
61 The passage mainly discusses music that was
A performed before the showing of a film B played during silent films C specifically composed for certain movie theaters D recorded during film exhibitions 62 What can be inferred from the passage about the majority of films made after 1927 ?
A They were truly "silent." B They were accompanied by symphonic orchestras C They incorporated the sound of the actors' voices D They corresponded to specific musical compositions 63 The word "solemn" is closest in meaning to
A simple B serious C short D silent
64 It can be inferred that orchestra conductors who worked in movie theaters needed to A be able to play many instruments B have pleasant voices
C be familiar with a wide variety of music D be able to compose original music 65 The word "them" refers to
A years B hands C pieces D films
66 According to the passage, what kind of business was the Edison Company? A It produced electricity B It distributed films
C It published musical arrangements D It made musical instruments 67 It may be inferred from the passage that the first musical cue sheets appeared around
A 1896 B 1909 C 1915 D 1927
68 Which of the following notations is most likely to have been included on a musical cue sheet of the early 1900's? A "Calm, peaceful" B "Piano, violin"
C "Key of C major" D "Directed by D.W Griffith" 69 The word "scores" is closest in meaning to
A totals B successes C musical compositions D groups of musicians 70 The passage probably continues with a discussion of
A famous composers of the early twentieth century B other films directed by D.W Griffith C silent films by other directors D the music in Birth of a Nation VII Read the passage and answer the question that follow
Marianne Moore (1887-1972) once said that her writing could be called poetry only because there was no other name for it Indeed her poems appear to be extremely compressed essays that happen to be printed in jagged lines on the page Her subject were varied: animals, laborers, artists, and the craft of poetry From her general reading came quotations that she found striking or insightful She included these in her poems, scrupulously enclosed in quotation marks, and sometimes identified in footnotes Of this practice, she wrote, " 'Why many quotation marks?' I am asked When a thing has been so well that it could not be said better, why paraphrase it? Hence, my writing is, if not a cabinet of fossils, a kind of collection of flies in amber." Close observation and concentration on detail and the methods of her poetry
(5)Her first book of poems was published in London in 1921 by a group of friends associated with the Imagist movement From that time on her poetry has been read with interest by succeeding generations of poets and readers In 1952 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her Collected Poems She wrote that she did not write poetry "for money or fame To earn a living is needful, but it can be done in routine ways One writes because one has a burning desire to objectify what it is indispensable to one's happiness to express 71 What is the passage mainly about?
A The influence of the imagists on Marianne Moore B Essayists and poets of the 1920's C The use of quotations in poetry D Marianne Moore's life and work 72.Which of the following can be inferred about Moore's poems?
A They are better known in Europe than the United States B They not use traditional verse forms C They were all published in The Dial D They tend to be abstract
73 According to the passage Moore wrote about all of the following EXCEPT
A artists B animals C fossils D workers
74.What does Moore refer to as "flies in amber" (line 9)?
A A common image in her poetry B Poetry in the twentieth-century C Concentration on detail D Quotations within her poetry 75 The author mentions all of the following as jobs held by Moore EXCEPT
A commercial artist B teacher C magazine editor D librarian 76 The word "period" is closest in meaning to
A movement B school C region D time
77 Where did Moore spend most of her adult life?
A In Kirkwood B In Brooklyn C In Los Angeles D In Carlisle 78 The word "succeeding" in line 19 is closest to
A inheriting B prospering C diverse D later 79 The word "it" in line 22 refers to
A writing poetry B becoming famous C earning a living D attracting readers 80 It can be inferred from the passage that Moore wrote because she
A wanted to win awards B was dissatisfied with what others wrote C felt a need to express herself D wanted to raise money for the Bronx Zoo

II Read the passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. In the world today, particular in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe, recycling is the big news People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be sensitive to the environment Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time The motto of the recycling movement is “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”
The first step is to reduce garbage In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes and expensive plastic wrappings A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging: usually paper, a box and a bag All that packaging is wasted resources People should try to buy things that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils Another way to reduce waste is to buy high-quality products When low-quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new ones - a loss of more resources and more energy For example, if a customer buys a high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message In the same way, if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the manufacturers To reduce garbage, the throw-away must stop
The second step is to reuse It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles After customers empty the bottles, they return them to the stores The manufacturers of the drinks collect bottles, wash them, and then fill them again The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved In some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice In those places, the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-away bottles
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used again Aluminum cans are expensive to make It takes the same amount of energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world’s
precious resources

Recent technological advances in manned and unmanned vehicles, along with breakthroughs in satellite technology and computer equipment, have overcome some of the limitations of divers and diving equipment for scientists doing research on the great oceans of the world Without a vehicle, divers often became sluggish, and their mental concentration was severely limited Because undersea pressure affects their speech organs, communication among divers has always been difficult or impossible But today, most oceanographers avoid the use of vulnerable human divers, preferring to reduce the risk to human life and make direct obervations by means of instruments that are lowered into the ocean, from samples take from the water, or from photographs made by orbiting satellites Direct observations of the ocean floor can be made not only by divers but also by deep-diving submarines in the water and even by the technology of sophisticated aerial photgraphy from vantage points above the surface of more than seven miles and cruise at depths of fifteen thousand feet In addition, radio-equipped buoys can be operated by remote control in order to transmit data back to land-based laboratories via satellite Particularly important for ocean study are data about water temperature, currents, and weather Satellite photographs can show the distribution of sea ice, oil slicks, and cloud formations over the ocean Maps created from satellite pictures can represent the temperature and the color of the ocean’s surface, enabling researchers to study the ocean currents from laboratories on dry land Furthermore, computers help oceanographers to collect, organize, and analyze data from submarines and satellites By creating a model of the ocean’s movement and characteristics, scientists can predict the patterns and possible effects of the ocean on the enviroment
Recently, many oceanographers have been relying more on satellites and computers than on research ships or even submarine vehicles because they can supply a greater range of information more quickly and more effectively Some of humankind’s most serious problems, especially those concerning energy and food, may be solved with the help of observations
made possible by this new technology
