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 51 to 60.
The languages spoken by early Europeans are still shrouded in mystery There is no linguistic continuity between the languages of Old Europe (a term sometimes used for Europe between 7,000 and 3,000 B.C.) and the languages of the modern world, and we cannot yet translate the Old European script Scholars have deciphered other ancient languages, such as Sumerian, Akkadian, and Babylonian, which used the cuneiform script, because of the fortuitous discovery of bilingual inscriptions When cuneiform tablets were first discovered in the 18th century, scholars could not decipher them Then inscriptions found in Iran at the end of the 18th century provided a link: these inscriptions were written in cuneiform and in two other ancient languages, Old Persian and New Elamite – languages that had already been deciphered It took several decades, but scholars eventually translated the ancient cuneiform script via the more familiar Old Persian language
(10)for several decades until the early 19th century when several key hieroglyphic phrases were decoded using the Greek inscriptions Unfortunately, we have no Old European Rosetta stone to chart correspondences between Old European script and the languages that replaced it
The incursions of Indo-European tribes into Old Europe from the late 5th to the early 3rd millennia B.C. caused a linguistic and cultural discontinuity These incursions disrupted the Old European sedentary farming lifestyle that had existed for 3,000 years As the Indo-Europeans encroached on Old Europe from the east, the continent underwent upheavals These severely affected the Balkans, where the Old European cultures abundantly employed script The Old European way of life deteriorated rapidly, although pockets of Old European cultural remained for several millennia The new peoples spoke completely different languages belonging to the Indo-European linguistic family The Old Indo-European language or languages, and the script used to write them, declined and eventually vanished
Question 51 What is the main topic of the passage?
A Reason for the failure to understand the written records of Old European culture B Influences on the development of Old European script
C Similarities between Old European script and other ancient writing systems D Events leading to the discovery of Old European script
Question 52 According to the passage, New Elamite is _ A a language that was used in Europe about 3,000 years ago B a modern language that came from Old Persian
C one of the languages spoken by the Old Europeans D a language that was understood by the late 18th century
Question 53: When does the passage suggest that ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic script was finally deciphered? A At around the same time as cuneiform script was deciphered
B Shortly before the Rosetta stone was unearthed
C As soon as additional bilingual inscriptions became available to scholars D A few decades after the hieratic script was decoded
Question 54: According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE of the Rosetta stone? A It was found by scholars trying to decode ancient languages
B It contains two versions of hieroglyphic script
C Several of its inscriptions were decoded within a few months of its discovery D Most of its inscriptions have still not been decoded
Question 55: According to the passage, scholars were able to decipher cuneiform form with the help of _ A the Sumerian, Akkadian, and Babylonian languages B Old Persian
C tablets written in Old European D languages spoken in 18th century Iran

For tasks that were not suited to the outwork system, entrepreneurs created an even more important new organization, the modem factory, which used power-driven machines and assembly-line techniques to turn out large quantities of well-made goods As early as 1782 the prolific Delaware inventor Oliver Evans had built a highly automated, laborsaving flour mill driven by water power His machinery lifted the grain to the top of the mill, cleaned it as it fell into containers known as hoppers, ground the grain into flour, and then conveyed the flour back to the top of the mill to allow it to cool as it descended into barrels Subsequently, manufacturers made use of new improved stationary steam engines to power their mills This new technology enabled them to build factories in the nation's largest cities, taking advantage of urban concentrations of inexpensive labor, good transportation networks, and eager customers
