VI.Read the passage and answer the question that follow
Accustomed though we are to speaking of the films made before 1927 as
"silent," the film has never been, in the full sense of the word, silent. From the very
beginning, music was regarded as an indispensable accompaniment ; when the
Lumiere films were shown at the first public film exhibition in the Unites States in
February 1896, they were accompanied by piano improvisations on popular tunes.

At first, the music played bore no special relationship to the films ; an
accompaniment of any kind was sufficient.
Within a very short time, however, the incongruity of playing lively music to a
solemn film became apparent, and film pianists began to take some care in
matching their pieces to the mood of the film.
As movie theaters grew in number and importance, a violinist, and perhaps a
cellist, would be added to the pianist in certain cases, and in the larger movie
theaters small orchestras were formed. For a number of years the selection of music
for each film program rested entirely in the hands of the conductor or leader of the
orchestra, and very often the principal qualification for holding such a position was
not skill or taste
so much as the ownership of a large personal library of musical pieces. Since the
conductor seldom saw the films until the night before they were to be shown (if,
indeed, the conductor was lucky enough to see them then), the musical arrangement
was normally improvised in the greatest hurry.
To help meet this difficulty, film distributing companies started the practice
of publishing suggestions for musical accompaniments. In 1909, for example, the
Edison Company began issuing with their films such indications of mood as
"pleasant," "sad," "lively." The suggestions became more explicit, and so emerged
the musical cue sheet containing indications of mood, the titles of suitable pieces of
music, and precise directions to show where one piece led into the next.
Certain films had music especially composed for them. The most famous of these
early special scores was that composed and arranged for D.W. Griffith's film Birth
of a Nation, which was released in 1915.
61. The passage mainly discusses music that was .............. .
A. performed before the showing of a film B. played during
silent films
C. specifically composed for certain movie theaters D. recorded during
film exhibitions
62. What can be inferred from the passage about the majority of films made after
1927 ?
A. They were truly "silent." B. They were
accompanied by symphonic orchestras.
C. They incorporated the sound of the actors' voices. D. They corresponded to
specific musical compositions.
63. The word "solemn" is closest in meaning to .............. .
A. simple B. serious C. short
D. silent
64. It can be inferred that orchestra conductors who worked in movie theaters
needed to .............. .
A. be able to play many instruments B. have pleasant
voices
C. be familiar with a wide variety of music D. be able to
compose original music
65. The word "them" refers to .............. .

VII. Read the passage and answer the question that follow
Marianne Moore (1887-1972) once said that her writing could be called poetry only
because there was no other name for it. Indeed her poems appear to be extremely
compressed essays that happen to be printed in jagged lines on the page. Her
subject were varied: animals, laborers, artists, and the craft of poetry. From her
general reading came quotations that she found striking or insightful. She included
these in her poems, scrupulously enclosed in quotation marks, and
sometimes identified in footnotes. Of this practice, she wrote, " 'Why many
quotation marks?' I am asked ... When a thing has been so well that it could not be
said better, why paraphrase it? Hence, my writing is, if not a cabinet of fossils, a
kind of collection of flies in amber." Close observation and concentration on detail
and the methods of her poetry.
Marianne Moore grew up in Kirkwood, Missouri, near St. Lois. After graduation
from Bryn Mawr College in 1909, she taught commercial subjects at the Indian
School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Later she became a librarian in New York
City. During the 1920‟s she was editor of The Dial, an important literary magazine
of the period. She lived quietly all her life, mostly in Brooklyn, New York. She
spent a lot of time at the Bronx Zoo, fascinated by animals. Her admiration of the
Brooklyn Dodgers-before the teammoved to Los Angeles-was widely known.
Her first book of poems was published in London in 1921 by a group of friends
associated with the Imagist movement. From that time on her poetry has been read
with interest by succeeding generations of poets and readers. In 1952 she was
awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her Collected Poems. She wrote that she did not write
poetry "for money or fame. To earn a living is needful, but it can be done in routine

II. Read the passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
In the world today, particular in the two most industrialized areas, North
America and Europe, recycling is the big news. People are talking about it,
practicing it, and discovering new ways to be sensitive to the environment.
Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of the
recycling movement is “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”.
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in
blister packs, boxes and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food
restaurant comes in lots of packaging: usually paper, a box and a bag. All that
packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things that are wrapped
simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy high-
quality products. When low-quality appliances break, many customers throw them
away and buy new ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if
a customer buys a high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the
manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way, if a customer
chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to
the manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throw-away must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable
bottles. After customers empty the bottles, they return them to the stores. The
manufacturers of the drinks collect bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The
energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In some parts of the world,
returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage
dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-away bottles.
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can
be cleaned and used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same
amount of energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for
three hours. When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help
save one of the world‟s
precious resources.
6. It is a waste when customers buy low-quality products because _______.
A. they will soon throw them away B. they have to be repaired many
times
C. customers always change their idea D. they are very cheap .
7. The word “motto” is closest in meaning to _______.
A. meaning B. belief C. value D. reference
8. People can do the following to reduce waste EXCEPT _______.
A. buy high-quality products B. buy simply-wrapped things
C. buy more hamburgers D. reuse
cups

VII. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions.
Recent technological advances in manned and unmanned vehicles, along with
breakthroughs in satellite technology and computer equipment, have overcome
some of the limitations of divers and diving equipment for scientists doing research
on the great oceans of the world. Without a vehicle, divers often became sluggish,
and their mental concentration was severely limited. Because undersea pressure
affects their speech organs, communication among divers has always been difficult
or impossible. But today, most oceanographers avoid the use of vulnerable human
divers, preferring to reduce the risk to human life and make direct obervations by
means of instruments that are lowered into the ocean, from samples take from the
water, or from photographs made by orbiting satellites. Direct observations of the
ocean floor can be made not only by divers but also by deep-diving submarines in
the water and even by the technology of sophisticated aerial photgraphy from
vantage points above the surface of more than seven miles and cruise at depths of
fifteen thousand feet. In addition, radio-equipped buoys can be operated by remote
control in order to transmit data back to land-based laboratories via satellite.
Particularly important for ocean study are data about water temperature, currents,
and weather. Satellite photographs can show the distribution of sea ice, oil slicks,
and cloud formations over the ocean. Maps created from satellite pictures can
represent the temperature and the color of the ocean‟s surface, enabling researchers
to study the ocean currents from laboratories on dry land. Furthermore, computers
help oceanographers to collect, organize, and analyze data from submarines and
satellites. By creating a model of the ocean‟s movement and characteristics,
scientists can predict the patterns and possible effects of the ocean on the
enviroment.
Recently, many oceanographers have been relying more on satellites and computers
than on research ships or even submarine vehicles because they can supply a greater
range of information more quickly and more effectively. Some of humankind‟s most
serious problems, especially those concerning energy and food, may be solved with the
help of observations
made possible by this new technology.
