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.
Tulips are Old World, rather than New World, plants, with the origins of the species lying in
Central Asia. They became an integral part of the gardens of the Ottoman Empire from the sixteenth
century onward, and, soon after, part of European life as well. Holland, in particular, became famous for
its cultivation of the flower.
A tenuous line marked the advance of the tulip to the New World, where it was unknown in the
wild. The first Dutch colonies in North America had been established in New Netherlands by the Dutch
West India Company in 1624, and one individual who settled in New Amsterdam (today's Manhattan
section of New York City) in 1642 described the flowers that bravely colonized the settlers' gardens.
They were the same flowers seen in Dutch still-life paintings of the time: crown imperials, roses,
carnations, and of course tulips. They flourished in Pennsylvania too, where in 1698 William Penn
received a report of John Tateham's "Great and Stately Palace," its garden full of tulips. By 1760, Boston
newspapers were advertising 50 different kinds of mixed tulip "roots." But the length of the journey
between Europe and North America created many difficulties. Thomas Hancock, an English settler,
wrote thanking his plant supplier for a gift of some tulip bulbs from England, but his letter the following
year grumbled that they were all dead.
Tulips arrived in Holland, Michigan, with a later wave of early nineteenth-century Dutch
immigrants who quickly colonized the plains of Michigan. Together with many other Dutch
settlements, such as the one at Pella, Iowa, they established a regular demand for European plants. The

demand was bravely met by a new kind of tulip entrepreneur, the traveling salesperson. One Dutchman,
Hendrick van de Schoot, spent six months in 1849 traveling through the United States taking orders for
tulip bulbs. While tulip bulbs were traveling from Europe to the United States to satisfy the nostalgic
longings of homesick English and Dutch settlers, North American plants were traveling in the opposite

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.
The stylistic innovation in painting known as Impressionism began in the 1870’s. The
Impressionists wanted to depict what they saw in nature, but they were inspired to portray fragmentary
moments by the increasingly fast pace of modern life. They concentrated on the play of light over
objects, people, and nature, breaking up seemingly solid surfaces, stressing vivid contrast between colors
in sunlight and shade, and depiction reflected light in all of its possibilities. Unlike earlier artists, they
did not want to observe the world from indoors. They abandoned the studio, painting in the open air and
recording spontaneous Impressions of their subjects instead of making outside sketches and then moving

indoors to complete the work form memory.
Some of the Impressionists’ painting methods were affected by technological advances. For
example, the shift from the studio to the open air was made possible in part by the advent of cheap rail
travel, which permitted easy and quick access to the countryside or seashore, as well as by newly
developed chemical dyes and oils that led to collapsible paint tubes, which enabled artists to finish their
paintings on the spot.
Impressionism acquired its name not from supporters but from angry art lovers who felt threatened
by the new painting. The term “Impressionism” was born in 1874, when a group of artists who had been
working together organized an exhibition of their paintings in order to draw public attention to their
work. Reaction from the public and press was immediate, and derisive. Among the 165 paintings
exhibited was one called Impression: Sunrise, by Claude Monet (1840-1926), viewed through hostile
eyes, Monet’s painting of a rising sun over a misty, watery scene seemed messy, slapdash, and an
affront to good taste. Borrowing Monet’s title, art critics extended the term “Impressionism” to the
entire exhibit. In response, Monet and his 29 fellow artists in the exhibit adopted the same name as a
badge of their unity, despite individual differences. From then until 1886 Impressionism had all the zeal
of a “church”, as the painter Renoir put it. Monet was faithful to the Impressionist creed until his death,
although many of the others moved on to new styles.
Question 71: What aspect of painting in the nineteenth century does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The impact of some artists’ resistance to the fast pace of life
B. The differences between two major styles of art
C. A technological advance in the materials used by artists
D. A group of artists with a new technique and approach to art
Question 72: The word “depict” is closest in meaning to…..
A. reorganize
B. deform
C. represent
D. justify
Question 73: According to the passage, which of the following was one of the distinguishing
characteristics of Impressionist painting?
A. The emphasis on people rather than nature scenes

B. The way the subjects were presented from multiple angles
C. The focus on small solid objects
D. The depiction of the effects of light and color
Question 74: Which of the following is a significant way in which Impressionists were different from
the artists that preceded them?
A. They began by making sketches of their subjects
B. They painted their subjects out-of-doors
C. They preferred to paint from memory
D. They used subjects drawn from modern life
Question 75: The word “advent” is closest in meaning to…..
A. achievement
B. acceptance
C. arrival
D. advantage
Question 76: The exhibition of paintings organized in 1874 resulted in all of the following EXCEPT…
