Ask anyone over forty to make a comparison (26)---- the past and the present and nine (27)----ten people

weather for example, which has been behaving rather strangely lately. Everyone remembers that in their
childhood the summers were(29)---- hotter, and that winter always included abundant falls of snow just
when the school holidays had started. Of course, the food in those days was far superior too, as nothing
was imported and everything was fresh. Unemployment was negligible, the pound really was worth
something, and you could buy a sizeable house even if your means were limited. And above all, people
were (30)---- better in those days, far more friendly, not inclined to crime or violence, and spent their free
time making model boats and tending their stamp collections (31)---- than gazing at the television screen
for hours on end. As we know that this picture of the past (32)---- cannot be true, and there are plenty of
statistics dealing with health and prosperity which prove that it is not true, why is it that we all have a
(33)------ to idealize the past ? Is this simply nostalgia? Or is it rather that we need to believe in an image
of the world which is (34)--- the opposite of what we see around us? Whichever it is, at least it leaves us
with a nagging feeling that the present could be better, and perhaps (35)----- us to be a little more critical
about the way we live.

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.
Etymologically, anthropology is the science of humans. In fact, however, it is only one of the sciences of humans,
bringing together those disciplines the common aims of which are to describe human beings and explain them on
the basis of the biological and cultural characteristics of the populations among which they are distributed and
to emphasize, through time, the differences and variations of these populations. The concept of race, on the one hand,
and that of culture, on the other, have received special attention; and although their meaning is still subject to debate,
these terms are doubtless the most common of those in the anthropologist's vocabulary.
Anthropology, which is concerned with the study of human differences, was born after the Age of
Discovery had opened up societies that had remained outside the technological civilization of the modern
West. In fact, the field of research was at first restricted to those societies that had been given one unsatisfactory label
after another, "savage," "primitive," "tribal," "traditional," or even "preliterate," "prehistorical," and so on. What such
societies had in common, above all, was being the most "different" or the most foreign to the anthropologist;
and in the early phases of anthropology, the anthropologists were always European or North American. The
distance between the researcher and the object of his study has been a characteristic of anthropological
research; it has been said of the anthropologist that he was the "astronomer of the sciences of man."
Anthropologists today study more than just primitive societies. Their research extends not only to village
communities within modern societies but also to cities, even to industrial enterprises. Nevertheless,
anthropology's first field of research, and the one that perhaps remains the most important, shaped its specific
point of view with regard to the other sciences of man and defined its theme. If, in particular, it is concerned
with generalizing about patterns of human behavior seen in all their dimensions and with achieving a total
description of social and cultural phenomena, this is because anthropology has observed small-scale societies,
which are simpler or at least more homogeneous than modern societies and which change at a slower pace. Thus
they are easier to see whole.
What has just been said refers especially to the branch of anthropology concerned with the cultural
characteristics of man? Anthropology has, in fact, gradually divided itself into two major spheres, the
study of man's biological characteristics and the study of his cultural characteristics. The reasons for this split
are manifold, one being the rejection of the initial mistakes regarding correlations between race and culture.
More generally speaking, the vast field of 19th century anthropology was subdivided into a series of
increasingly specialized disciplines, using their own methods and techniques, that were given different labels
according to national traditions.

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
According to sociologists, there are several different ways in which a person may become recognized as
the leader of a social group in the United States. In the family, traditional cultural patterns confer
leadership on one or both of the parents. In other cases, such as friendship groups, one or more persons
may gradually emerge as leaders, although there is no formal process of selection. In larger groups,
leaders are usually chosen formally through election or recruitment.
Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades of research have
failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of natural leaders. It seems that there is
no set of personal qualities that all leaders have in common; rather, virtually any person may be
recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group.
Furthermore, although it is commonly supposed that social groups have a single leader, research
suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that are held by different individuals.
Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group. Group

members look into instrumental leaders to get things done. Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is
leadership that emphasizes the collective well-being of a social groups member. Expressive leaders are
less concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group
members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them. Group members expect
expressive leaders to maintain stable relationships within the group and provide support to individual
members.
Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather secondary relationship to other group members. They
give orders and may discipline group members who inhibit attainment of the groups goals. Expressive
leaders cultivate a more personal or primary relationship to others in the group. They offer sympathy
when someone experiences difficulties or is subjected to discipline, are quick to lighten a serious moment
with humor, and try to resolve issues that threaten to divide the group. As the differences in these two
roles suggest, expressive leaders generally receive more personal affection from group members;
instrumental leaders, if they are successful in promoting group goals, may enjoy a most distant respect.

A. The problems faced by leaders
B. The role of leaders in social groups
C. How leadership differs in small and large groups
D. How social groups determine who will lead them

Question 64: Which of the following statements about leadership can be inferred from paragraph 2?
A. Few people succeed in sharing a leadership role with another person.
B. A person can best learn how to be an effective leader by studying research on leadership.
C. Most people desire to be leaders but can produce little evidence of their qualifications.
D. A person who is an effective leader of a particular group may not be an effective leader in another group.
