Part 3: Read the following passage and answer the questions from
choosing the letter A, B, C or D

101 to 110, by

During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, almost nothing was written about the
contribution of women during the colonial period and the early history of the newly formed
United States. Lacking the right to vote and absent from the seats of power, women were not
considered an important force in history. Anne Bradstreet wrote some significant poetry in the
seventeenth century, Mercy Otis Warren produced the best contemporary history of the
American Revolution, and Abigail Adams penned important letters showing she exercised

great political influence over her husband, John, the second President of the United States. But

little or no notice was taken of these contributions. During these centuries, women
invisible in history books.
Throughout the nineteenth century.

remained

this lack of visibility continued, despite the efforts of

female authors writing about women. These
writers, like most of their male counterparts. were
amateur historians. Their writings were celebratory in nature, and they were uncritical in their

selection and use of sources.
During

the nineteenth

century,

however,

certain

feminists

showed

a keen

sense

of

history by keeping records of activities in which women were engaged. National, regional, and

local women’s organizations compiled accounts of their doings. Personal correspondence,

6


newspaper clippings, and souvenirs were saved and stored. These sources form the core of the

two greatest collections of women’s history in the United States — one at the Elizabeth and
Arthur Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe College, and the other the Sophia Smith Collection
at
Smith College. Such sources have provided valuable materials for later generations of

historians.

Despite the gathering of more information about ordinary women during the nineteenth
century, most of the writing about women conformed to the “great women” theory of history,
just as much of mainstream American history concentrated on “great men”. To demonstrate

that women were making significant contributions to American life, female authors singled out
women leaders and wrote biographies, or else important women produced their

autobiographies. Most of these leaders were involved in public life as reformers, activists
working for women’s right to vote, or authors, and were not representative at all of the great

mass of ordinary women. The lives of ordinary people continued, generally, to be untold in the

American histories being published.

101. What does the passage mainly discuss?

A. The role of literature in early American histories.
B. The keen sense of history shown by American women.

C. The place of American women in written histories,

D. The “great women” approach to history used by American historians.
102. The word “contemporary” in the passage is closest in meaning to

A. past

B. written at that time

C. temporary

103.

D. belonging to the present time
In the first paragraph, Bradstreet, Warren, and Adams are mentioned to show that
A. a woman's status was changed by marriage.

ve

B, only three women were able to get their writing published.

C.

D.
104. The
A.

poetry produced by women was more readily accepted than other writing by women.
even the contributions of outstanding women were ignored.
word “celebratory” in the passage means that the writings referred to were IS,
full of praise _ B. related to parties C. religious
D. serious

105. The word “they” in the passage refers to...
A. counterparts

B. efforts

C. authors

D. sources

106. In the second paragraph, what weakness in nineteenth-century histories does the author
point out?
A. They put too much emphasis on daily activities.
B.

The sources of the information they were based on were not necessarily accurate.

C. They left out discussion of the influence on money on politics
D. They were printed on poor quality paper.
107. On the basis of information in the third paragraph, which of the followings would most
likely have been collected by nineteenth-century feminist organizations?

A. Letters from a mother to a daughter advising her how to handle a family problem.

B. Newspaper accounts of presidential elect.on results.

C. Biographies of John Adams.
D. Books about famous graduates of the country’s firstcollege.


108. What use was made of the nineteenth-century women’s history materials in the

Schlesinger Library and the Sophia Smith Collection?
A. They were combined and published in a multivolume encyclopedia about women.
B, They provided valuable information for twentieth century historical researchers.
C, They formed the basis of college courses in the nineteenth-century.
D. They were shared among women’s colleges throughout the United States.
109. In the last paragraph, the author mentions all of the following as possible roles of
nineteenth -century “great women” EXCEPT
A. authors
B. reformers
C. politicians
D. activists for women’s rights

CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE INUIT

The threat posed by climate change in the Arctic
and the problems faced by Canada's Inuit people

A
Unusual incidents are being reported across the Arctic. Inuit families going off on
snowmobiles to prepare their summer hunting camps have found themselves cut off from home
by a sea of mud, following early thaws. There are reports of igloos losing their insulating

properties as the snow drips and refreezes, of lakes draining into the sea as permafrost melts, and
sea ice breaking up earlier than usual, carrying seals beyond the reach of hunters. Climate change

may still be a rather abstract idea to most of us, but in the Arctic it is already having dramatic

effects - if summertime

ice continues to shrink at its present rate, the Arctic Ocean could soon

become virtually ice-free in summer. The knock-on effects are likely to include more warming,

cloudier si

increased precipitation and higher sea levels. Scientists are increasingly keen to

find out what's going on because they consider the Arctic the ‘canary in the mine’ for global
warming- a warning of what's in store for the rest of the world.

B
For the Inuit the problem is urgent. They live in precarious balance with one of the
toughest environments on earth. Climate change, whatever its causes, is a direct threat to their
way of life. Nobody knows the Arctic as well as the locals, which is why they are not content
simply to stand back and let outside experts tell them what's happening. In Canada. where the

Inuit people are jealously guarding their hard-won autonomy in the country's new
Nunavut, they believe their best hope of survival in this changing environment lies in combining

their ancestral knowledge with the best of modern science. This is a challenge in itself.
Cc
The Canadian Arctic is a vast, treeless polar desert that's covered with snow for most of
the year, Venture into this terrain and you get some idea of the hardships facing anyone who calls
this home. Farming is out of the question and nature offers meager pickings. Humans first settled
in the Arctic a mere 4,500 years ago, surviving by exploiting sea mammals and fish. The
environment tested them to the limits: sometimes the colonists were successful, sometimes they

failed and vanished. But around a thousand years ago, one group emerged that was uniquely well

adapted to cope with the Arctic environment. These Thule people moved
bringing kayaks, sleds, dogs, pottery and
people.

D

iron tools. They

in from Alaska,

are the ancestors of today's

Inuit

Life for the descendants of the Thule people is still harsh. Nunavut is 1.9 million square

kilometers of rock and ice, and a handful of islands around the North Pole. It's currently home to
2.500 people. all but a handful of them indigenous Inuit. Over the past 40 years, most have
abandoned their nomadic ways and settled in the territory's 28 isolated communities, but they still

rely heavily on nature to provide food and clothing.
Provisions available in local shops have to be flown into Nunavut on one of the most costly air
networks
in the world, or brought by supply ship during the few ice-free weeks of summer. It
would cost a family around £7,000 a year to replace meat they obtained themselves through
Page 3 of 12 pages

hunting with imported meat. Economic opportunities are scarce, and for many people state
benefits are their only income.
E
While the Inuit may not actually starve if hunting and trapping are curtailed by climate
change, there has certainly been an impact on people's health. Obesity, heart disease and diabetes
are beginning to appear in a people for whom these have never before been problems. There has

been a crisis of identity as the traditional skills of hunting, trapping and preparing skins have

begun to disappear. In Nunavut's 'igloo and email’ society, where adults who were born in igloos

have children who may never have been out on the land, there's a high incidence of depression.
F
With so much at stake, the Inuit are determined to play a key role in teasing out the

mysteries of climate change in the Arctic. Having survived there for centuries, they believe their

wealth of traditional knowledge is vital to the task. And Western scientists are starting to draw on
this wisdom, increasingly referred to as ‘Inuit Qaujimajatugangit’, or 1Q. 'In the early days

Scientists ignored us when they came up here to study anything. They just figured these people

don't know very much so we won't ask them,' says John Amagoalik, an Inuit leader and politician.

‘But in recent years IQ has had much more credibility and weight.' In fact it is now a requirement

for anyone hoping to get permission to do research that they consult the communities, who are
helping to set the
‘arch agenda to reflect their most important concerns. They can turn down

applications from scientists they believe will work against their interests, or research projects that

will impinge too much on their daily lives and traditional activities.
G
Some scientists doubt the value of traditional knowledge because the occupation of the

Arctic doesn't go back far enough. Others, however, point out that the first weather stations in the
far north date back just 50 years. There are still huge gaps in our environmental knowledge, and
despite the scien
onslaught, many predictions are no more than best guesses. IQ could help to
bridge the gap and resolve the tremendous uncertainty about how much of what we're seeing is
natural capriciousness and how much is the consequence of human activity,

NUMERATION

One of the first great intellectual feats ofa young child is learning how to talk, closely
followed by learning how to count. From earliest childhood we are so bound up with our system

of numeration that it is a feat of imagination to consider the problems faced by early humans who
had not yet developed this facility. Careful consideration of our system of numeration leads to the
conviction that, rather than being a facility that comes naturally to a person, it is one of the great
and remarkable achievements of the human race.

instead their considerations would have been more of the kind /s this enough? rather than How

when they were engaged in food gathering, for example.

However,

when early humans

first began to reflect on the nature of things around them, they discovered that they needed an

idea of number simply to keep their thoughts in order. As they began to settle, grow plants and
herd animals, the need for a sophisticated number system became paramount. It will never be
known how and when this numeration ability developed, but it is certain that numeration was
well developed by the time humans had formed even semi-permanent settlements.
