PASSAGE 1
Even before the turn of the century, movies began to develop in two major directions: the realistic and the
formalistic. Realism and formalism are merely general, rather than absolute, terms. When used to suggest a tendency
toward either polarity, such labels can be helpful, but in the end they are still just labels. Few films are exclusively
formalist in style, and fewer yet are completely realist. There is also an important difference between realism and
reality, although this distinction is often forgotten. Realism is a particular style, whereas physical reality is the source
of all the raw materials of film, both realistic and formalistic. Virtually all movie directors go to the photographable
world for their subject matter, but what they do with this material - how they shape and manipulate it - determines
their stylistic emphasis.
Generally speaking, realistic films attempt to reproduce the surface of concrete reality with a minimum of
distortion. In photographing objects and events, the filmmaker tries to suggest the copiousness of life itself. Both
realist and formalist film directors must select (and hence emphasize) certain details from the chaotic sprawl of reality.
But the element of selectivity in realistic films is less obvious. Realists, in short, try to preserve the illusion that their
film world is unmanipulated, an objective mirror of the actual world. Formalists, on the other hand, make no such
pretense. They deliberately stylize and distort their raw materials so that only the very naive would mistake a
manipulated image of an object or event for the real thing.
We rarely notice the style in a realistic movie; the artist tends to be self-effacing. Some filmmakers are more
concerned with what is being shown than how it is manipulated. The camera is used conservatively. It is essentially a
recording mechanism that reproduces the surface of tangible objects with as little commentary as possible. A high
premium is placed on simplicity, spontaneity, and directness. This is not to suggest that these movies lack artistry,
however, for at its best the realistic cinema specializes in art that conceals art.
1. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Acting styles C. Film plots
B. Styles of filmmaking D. Filmmaking 100 years ago
2. With which of the following statements would the author be most likely to agree?
A. Realism and formalism are outdated terms.
B. Most films are neither exclusively realistic nor formalistic.
C. Realistic films are more popular than formalistic ones.
D. Formalistic films are less artistic than realistic ones.
3. Whom does the author say is primarily responsible for the style of a film?
A. The director C. The actors
B. The producer D. The camera operator
4. How can one recognize the formalist style?

PASSAGE 2
The thick, woolly fleece of the domestic sheep is its distinguishing feature and the source of much of its
economic importance. Yet only a moment, in evolutionary terms, has passed since the domestic sheep had a coat
resembling that of many other wildlife animals. As recently as 8,000 years ago, it was covered not in a white,
continuously growing mass of wool but in a brown coat consisting of an outer array of kemps, or coarse hairs, that
was shed annually and a fine woolly undercoat that also molted. Such an animal could not have supported the
technology that has grown up around the domestic sheep - the shearing, dyeing, spinning, and weaving of wool - any
better than could a wild sheep such as the bighorn of North America, Much of the selective breeding that led to the
fleece types known today took place in prehistory, and even the later developments went largely unchronicled. Yet
other kinds of records survive, in three forms. Specimens of wool from as long ago as 1500 B.C. have been found,
mostly as ancient textiles, but also in the form of sheepskins. Antique depictions of sheep in sculpture, relief, and
painting give even earlier clues to the character of ancient fleeces. The longest line of evidence takes the form of
certain primitive breeds that are still tended in remote areas or that escaped from captivity long ago and now live in the
wild. They retain the characteristics of ancient sheep, providing living snapshots of the process that gave rise to
modern fleeces.

6. What topic does the passage mainly discuss?

A. The economic importance of sheep through the ages.
B. The development of textile crafts and technologies
C. The evolution of the fleece of domestic sheep
D. The influence of technology on wool manufacturing
7. According to the passage, the outer coat of sheep 8.000 years ago was _____.
A. white B. coarse
C. warmer than that of bighorn sheep D. similar to that of the modern sheep
8. According to the passage, much of the selective breeding was _____.
A. archived in history books B. known by words of mouth
C. promoted recently D. not formally recorded
9. Which of the following can be concluded about the wild sheep, as compared with domestic sheep?
A. They are evolving more rapidly.
B. They have thicker coats.
C. They are less similar to bighorn sheep.
D. They are of less economic importance.
10. Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?
A. Ancient flees might have been depicted in prehistoric artistic works.
B. Modern fleeces are of no connection with their ancient counterparts.
C. The coat of sheep 8000 years ago was suitable for modern-day technologies.
D. There were no chronicles of the evolution of sheep.

 In the early years of America’s Revolutionary War, which began in 1775, it appeared likely that the British
would crush the armies of her colonial territory and incorporate it back into the empire. The British troops were a
well-trained and disciplined army that was feared worldwide. In contrast, the American troops were newly trained,
sometimes poorly organized, and lacked sufficient resources to fight effectively. General George Washington could
have easily been defeated in the Battle of Long Island on August 22, 1776. Historical records show that Sir William
Howe, the British commander, was clearly defeating Washington on Long Island and was actually winning handily
(Seymour, 1995). Nonetheless, the weather intervened when a heavy fog rolled in, so the American forces were able
to retreat, regroup, and survive to fight another day. Because of this fog, the United States was not defeated in its
struggle for freedom.
When Napoleon Bonaparte invaded Russia in the early nineteenth century, he met with early successes that
appeared to guarantee that he might eventually rule the world as his personal domain. His soldiers captured Moscow
and destroyed the city, which encouraged him to push farther in his military campaigns. However, because of his
dreams of glory, Napoleon overlooked the simple fact that Russian winters are extremely cold. When the temperatures
fell below freezing, many of his soldiers and their horses died in the brutal weather. As Belloc (1926) writes in his
classic study of the Napoleonic wars, “The cold was the abominable thing: The dreadful enemy against which men
could not fight and which destroyed them” (p. 217). As a result of the failure of Napoleon’s Russian campaigns, his
own rule ended relatively soon after. His defeat led to a reorganization of power throughout the European nations, as
well as to the rise of Russia as a major world power.
11. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The effect of weather on the world’s history
B. The two unsuccessful invasion
C. The causes of the two wars
D. The introduction of European wars
12. What happened to the American troops in 1776?
A. They defeated the British
B. They were defeated by the British
C. They took advantages of the condition to win
D. They became England’s colony
13. Why did Napoleon lose the battle in Russia?
A. Because he took the Russian for granted
B. Because his soldiers couldn’t fight throughout the war
C. Because he took the local condition for granted
D. Because his troops had no rules
14. What are NOT TRUE about the two fights?
A. The invaders were defeated due to the differences in weather condition
B. The two invaders were successful at their beginning
C. The winners were both newly trained troops
D. The winners both struggled for the freedom of their homeland.
15. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Weather plays an important role in the world’s history
B. The cold had helped two nations preserve their freedom
C. Weather contributed to the rise of Russia as a major world power
D. The America’s Revolutionary War ended in 1776

 Steamships were first introduced into the United States in 1807, and John Molson built the first steamship in
Canada (then called British North America) in 1809. By the 1830's dozens of steam vessels were in use in Canada.
They offered the traveler reliable transportation in comfortable facilities-a welcome alternative to stagecoach travel,
which at the best of times could only be described as wretched. This commitment to dependable river transport
became entrenched with the investment of millions of dollars for the improvement of waterways, which included the
construction of canals and lock systems. The Lachine and Welland canals- two of the most important systems were
opened in 1825 and 1829, respectively. By the time that Upper and Lower Canada were united into the Province of
Canada in 1841, the public debt for canals was more than one hundred dollars per capita, an enormous sum for the
time. But it may not seem such a great amount if we consider that improvements allowed steamboats to remain
practical for most commercial transport in Canada until the mid-nineteenth century.

16. What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To contrast travel by steamship and stagecoach
B. To criticize the level of public debt in nineteenth - century Canada
C. To describe the introduction of steamships in Canada
D. To show how Canada surpassed the United States in transportation improvements
17. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage about stagecoach travel in Canada in the 1830s?
A. It was reasonably comfortable B. It was extremely efficient
C. It was not popular D. It was very practical
18. According to the passage, when was the Welland Canal opened?
A. 1807 B. 1809 C. 1825 D.1829
19. According to the passage, steamships became practical means of transportation in Canada because of _____.
A. Improvements in the waterways B. Large subsidies from John
C. A relatively small population D. The lack of alternative means
20. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The public debt for canals causes Canada to rethink about the means of transportation.
B. The mid-nineteenth century witnessed a change in commercial transport.
C. Lachine and Welland canals are the first waterways systems worldwide.
D. The steam vessels still play a vital role in today’s transportation.
