Reading
Inspiration for the themes in inuit
art is intimatelty tied to personal
experience of the Canadian Arctic land
and its animals, camp and family life,
hunting, spirituality, and mythology. In
telling the story of their people through
this wide array of subjects, Inuit artist
have created an almost encyclopedic
visual catalog of traditional (and to a
lesser extent transitional and modern)
inuit cultuer.
Animals play a vital role in the everday
lives of inuit, and only in the past few
decades has the people’s absolute
dependence on them lessened. Not too
long ago, procuring food and other
necessities depended solely on
successful hunts, which in turn
depended upon proper preparation and
luck, in addition to the strict observance
of taboos and respect for the soul of the
soul of the prey. As a consequence,
animals constitute the prime inspiration
for many inuit artist, particularly in
sculpture.
Based on yers of observing and tracking
prey, inuit wildlife art shows a keen
awareness of the physical
characteristics, habits, and seasonal
changes in animals. Some artists display
a high degree of naturalistic detail, but
others prefer to exaggerate certain
physical attributes for effect. In general,
while most inuit artist strive for a
realistic presentation, they seem more
concerned with capturing the essence of
an animal’s spirit.
Animals may be portrayed singly, in
small groups, or in scenes tha involve
both hunter and prey. Pictorial arts often
show the chase, whict sculptures focus
more on the final confrontation of hunter
and prey, ofter with considerable drama.
The hunter may be human or one of the
gree. Arctic predators such as the polar
bear, owl, hawk, or wolf.
Scenes of everyday life, which include
camp scenes, games, and entertainment,
are common to all forms of inuit art, and
traditional activities are far more
prevalent than modern aspects of inuit
community life. Camp-related themes
mostly portray women engaged in
demostic tasks such as sewing clothes or
preparing food and skins. Games and
contest involve both individuals and the
community, and drum dancing is a from
of entertainment that also has
considerable spiritual significance.

 Although management principles have been implemented since ancient times, most
management scholars trace the beginning of modern management thought back to the early
1900s, beginning with thepioneering work of Frederick Taylor (1856-1915). Taylor was the first
person to study work scientifically. He is most famous for introducing techniques of time and
motion study, differential piece rate systems, and for systematically specializing the work of
operating employees and managers. Along with other pioneers such as Frank and Lillian
Gilbreth, Taylor set the stage, labeling his philosophy and methods “scientific management’. At
that time, his philosophy, which was concerned with productivity, but which was often
misinterpreted as promoting worker interests at the expense of management, was in marked
contrast to the prevailing industrial norms of worker exploitation. The time and motion study
concepts were popularized by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth.
The Gilbreths had 12 children. By analyzing his children’s dishwashing and bedmaking
chores, this pioneer efficiency expert, Frank Gilbreth, hit on principles whereby workers could
eliminate waste motion. He was memorialized by two of his children in their 1949 book called
“Cheaper by the Dozen”. The Gilbreth methods included using stop watches to time worker
movements and special tools (cameras and special clocks) to monitor and study worker
performance, and also involved identification of“therbligs” (Gilbreth spelled backwards) – basic
motions used in production jobs. Many of these motions and accompanying times have been
used to determine how long it should take a skilled worker to perform a given job. In this way an
industrial engineer can get a handle on the approximate time it should take to produce a product
or provide a service. However, use of work analysis in this way is unlikely to lead to useful
results unless all five work dimensions are considered: physical, psychological, social, cultural,
and power.

Amelia Earhart was born in Kansas in 1897. Thirty one years later, she received a phone call
that would change her life. She was invited to become the first woman passenger to cross the
Atlantic Ocean in a plane. The flight took more than 20 hours – about three times longer than it
routinely takes today to cross the Atlantic by plane. Earhart was twelve years old before she ever
saw an airplane, and she didn’t take her first flight until 1920. But she was so thrilled by her first
experience in a plane that she quickly began to take flying lessons. She wrote, “As soon as I left
the ground, I knew I myself had to fly.”
After that flight Earhart became a media sensation. She was given a ticker tape parade down
Broadway in New York and even President Coolidge called to congratulate her. Because her
record-breaking career and physical appearance were similar to pioneering pilot and American
hero Charles Lindbergh, she earned the nickname “Lady Lindy.” She wrote a book about her
flight across the Atlantic, called 20 Hrs., 40 Min.
Earhart continued to break records, and also polished her skills as a speaker and writer,
always advocating women’s achievements, especially in aviation. Her next goal was to achieve a
transatlantic crossing alone. In 1927 Charles Lindbergh became the first person to make a solo
nonstop flight across the Atlantic. Five years later, Earhart became the first woman to repeat that
feat. Her popularity grew even more and she was the undisputed queen of the air. She then
wanted to fly around the world, and in June 1937 she left Miami with Fred Noonan as her
navigator. No one knows why she left behind important communication and navigation
instruments. Perhaps it was to make room for additional fuel for the long flight. The pair made it
to New Guinea in 21 days and then left for Howland Island, a tiny island in the middle of the
Pacific Ocean. The last communication from Earhart and Noonan was on July 2, 1937 with a
nearby Coast Guard ship. The United States Navy conducted a massive search for more than two
weeks but no trace of the plane or its passengers was ever found. Many people believe they got
lost and simply ran out of fuel and died.

There are two main hypotheses when it comes to explaining the emergence of modern
humans. The ‘Out of Africa’ theory holds that homo sapiens burst onto the scene as a new
species around 150,000 to 200,000 years ago in Africa and subsequently replaced archaic
humans such as the Neandertals. The other model, known as multi-regional evolution or regional
continuity, posits far more ancient and diverse roots for our kind. Proponents of this view believe
that homo sapiens arose in Africa some 2 million years ago and evolved as a single species
spread across the Old World, with populations in different regions linked through genetic and
cultural exchange.
Of these two models, Out of Africa, which was originally developed based on fossil
evidence, and supported by much genetic research, has been favored by the majority of evolution
scholars. The vast majority of these genetic studies have focused on DNA from living
populations, and although some small progress has been made in recovering DNA from
Neandertal that appears to support multi-regionalism, the chance of recovering nuclear DNA
from early human fossils is quite slim at present. Fossils thus remain very much a part of the
human origins debate. Another means of gathering theoretical evidence is through bones.
Examinations of early modern human skulls from Central Europe and Australia dated to between
20,000 and 30,000 years old have suggested that both groups apparently exhibit traits seen in
their Middle Eastern and African predecessors. But the early modern specimens from Central
Europe also display Neandertal traits, and the early modern Australians showed affinities to
archaic Homo from Indonesia. Meanwhile, the debate among paleoanthropologists continues , as
supporters of the two hypotheses challenge the evidence and conclusions of each other.

30. The passage primarily discusses which of the following

(a) Evidence that supports the “Out of Africa”
theory
(b) Two hypotheses and some evidence on the
human origins debate
(c) The difficulties in obtaining agreement among
theorists on the human origins debate
(d) That fossils remain very much a part of the
human origins debate

31. The word “emergence” in line 1 is closest in meaning to

(a) complexity
(b) development
(c) appearance
(d) decline

32. The word “proponents” in line 6 is closet in meaning to

(a) experts
(b) advocates
(c) inspectors
(d) historians

33. All of the following are true except

(a) three methods of gathering evidence are
mentioned in the passage
(b) the multi-regional model goes back further in history.
(c) the Out of Africa model has had more support
rom scholars
(d) DNA studies offer one of the best ways in
future to provide clear evidence.

34. The word “slim” in line 14 is closest in meaning to

(a) small
(b) narrow
(c) thin
(d) difficult

35. Which of the following is not true

(a) the vast majority of genetic studies have focused
on living populations
(b) early modern human skulls all support the
same conclusions
(c) both hypotheses focus on Africa as a location for
the new species.
(d) early modern Australian skulls have similarities
to those from Indonesia.

36. In line 18, the word “their ” refers to which of the following
(a) Middle Easterners and Africans
(b) skulls
(c) central Europeans and Australians
(d) traits

37. Which of the following is NOT true about the two hypotheses
(a) Both hypotheses regard Neandertals to be the
predecessors of modern humans
(b) Genetic studies have supported both hypotheses
(c) Both hypotheses cite Africa as an originating
location.
(d) One hypothesis dates the emergence of homo
sapiens much earlier than the other.

38. It can be inferred from the passage that

(a) there is likely to be an end to the debate in the
near future
(b) the debate will interest historians to take part in
(c) the debate is likely to be less important in future
(d) there is little likelihood that the debate will
die down

39. According to the passage, the multi-regional evolution model posits far more diverse roots for our
kind because
(a) Evidence from examinations of early modern
human skulls has come from a number of
ifferent parts of the world
(b) DNA from Neandertal appears to support multi-
regionalis
(c) Populations in different regions were linked
through genetic and cultural exchange
