Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word from 43 to 50
One of the major problems in the art world is how to distinguish and promote an artist In effect, a market must be created for an artist to become successful The practice of signing and numbering individual prints was introduced by James Abbott McNeill Whistler, the nineteenth-century artist best known for the painting of his mother, called “Arrangement in Grey and Black,” but known to most of us as “Whistler’s Mother.” Whistler’s brother-in-law, Sir Francis Seymour Haden, a less well-known artist, had speculated that collectors might find prints more attractive if they knew that there were only a limited number of copies produced By signing the work in pencil, an artist could guarantee and personalize each print
As soon as Whistler and Haden began the practice of signing and numbering their prints, their work began to increase in value When other artists noticed that the signed prints commanded higher prices, they began copying the procedure
Although most prints are signed on the right-hand side in the margin below the image, the placement of the signature is a matter of personal choice Indeed, prints have been signed within the image, in any of the margins, or even on the reverse side of the print Whenever the artist elects to sign it, a signed print is still valued above an unsigned one, even in the same edition
Câu 43: What made Whistler’s work more valuable?
A His brother-in-law’s prints B His painting of his mother C His signature on the prints D His fame as an artist
Câu 44: The author mentions all of the following as reasons why a collector prefers a signed print EXCEPT A it limits the number of copies of the print B it guarantees the print’s authenticity
C it makes the print more personal D it encourages higher prices for the print Câu 45: The word “it” refers to
A the reverse side B the same edition C a print D the image Câu 46: The word “distinguish” is closest in meaning to
A allow exceptions B making improvement
C recognize differences D accept changes
Câu 47: What does the author mean by the statement: “As soon as Whistler and Haden began the practice of signing and numbering their prints, their work began to increase in value.”?
A The signing and numbering of prints was not very popular B Many copies of the prints were made
C The signatures became more valuable than the prints D The prints that were signed and numbered were worth more Câu 48: Which of the following would be a better title for the passage?
A Whistler’s Greatest Works B Whistler’s Mother
C The Practice of Signing Prints D Copying Limited Edition Prints Câu 49: It can be inferred from the passage that artists number their prints
A at the same place on each of the prints B to guarantee a limited edition C as an accounting procedure D when the buyer requests it Câu 50: What was true about the painting of Whistler’s mother?
