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 United 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 
 the y 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. 
Question 34: It may be inferred from the passage that the first musical cue sheets 
 appeared around_______. 
 A. 1896 B. 1909 C. 1915 D. 1927 
Question 35: The word “them” refers to_______. 
 A. films B. years C. pieces D. hands 
Question 36: Which of the following notations is most likely to have been included 
 on a musical cue sheet of the early 1900's? A. “Key of c major” B. “Directed by D. w. Griffith”
 C. “Calm, peaceful” D. “Piano, violin” 
Question 37: According to the passage, what kind of business was the Edison 
 Company? 
 A. It published musical arrangements. B. It made musical 
 instruments. 
 C. It distributed films. D. It produced electricity. 
Question 38: 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

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 40 to 46. 
At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the American educational system was 
 desperately in need of reform. Private schools existed, but only for the very 
 rich. There were very few public schools because of the strong sentiment that 
 children who would grow up to be laborers should not “waste” their time on 
 education but should instead prepare themselves for their life’s work. It was in 
 the face of this public sentiment that educational reformers set about their task. 
 Horace Mann, probably the most famous of the reformers, felt that there was 
 no excuse in a republic for any citizen to be uneducated. As Manager of 
 Education in the state of Massachusetts from 1837 to 1848, he initiated various 
 changes, which were soon matched in other school districts around the country. 
 He extended the school year from five to six months and improved the quality 
 of teachers by instituting teacher education and raising teacher salaries. 
 Although these changes did not bring about a sudden improvement in the 
 educational system, they at least increased public awareness as to the need for a 
 further strengthening of the system.

 needed_______. 
 A. a lot of money B. a high level of intelligence

 system for Americans because_______. 
 A. Massachusetts residents needed something to do with their spare time

 D. people had nothing else to do except go to school 
Question 42: The word “reformers” in the passage mostly means_______. A. people who really enjoy teaching B. people who believe that education is 
 wasted 
 C. people who work for the government D. people who try to change things 
 for the better 
Question 43: From 1837 to 1848, Horace Mann_______. 
 A. worked as a headmaster in a school in the state of Massachusetts 
 B. funded many projects to improve the educational system for Americans 
 C. managed education in the state of Massachusetts 
 D. raised money for the educational development in Massachusetts 
Question 44: The word “salaries” is closest in meaning to_______. 
 A. money B. wages C. school fee D. cost 
Question 45: The word “they” in the passage refers to_______. 
 A. these changes B. sudden improvement 
 C. educational system D. public awareness 
Question 46: According to the passage, which sentence is NOT TRUE? 
 A. Horace Mann was a famous US educational reformer. 
 B. Horace Mann brought about changes in many schools in the US. 
 C. Horace Mann began raising teachers’ salaries. 
 D. Horace Mann suggested schools prepare children for their life’s work.

Question 47: Monica and Mathew are on the way home. 
 Monica: “I think we should recycle these bags. It will help protect the 
 environment.” 
 Mathew: “____________” 
 A. I can't agree with you more. B. It's rubbish. We shouldn't use it. 
 C. Never mind. D. You can say that again. 
Question 48: Two friends Stephanie and Scott are preparing for their first lesson at 
 school. 
 Stephanie: “Oh, no! I left my book at home. Can I share yours?” 
 Scott: “________________” 
 A. Yes, I do too. B. No, thanks. C. No, not at all! D. Yes, sure! 
Question 49: Overeating is a cause of several deadly diseases. Physical inactivity is 
 another cause of several deadly diseases. 
 A. Both overeating and physical inactivity result from several deadly diseases. 
 B. Not only overeating but also physical inactivity may lead to several deadly 
 diseases. 
 C. Overeating and physical inactivity are caused by several deadly diseases. 
 D. Apart from physical activities, eating too much also contributes to several 
 deadly diseases. Question 50: He was successful because he was determined to pursue personal goals. 
 He was not talented. 
 A. It was his determination to pursue personal goals, not talent, that 
 contributed to his success. 
 B. In addition to his determination, his talent ensured his success in pursuing 
 his goals.
