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 36 to 42.
The Winterthur Museum is a collection and a house. There are many museums devoted to
the decorative arts and many house museums, but rarely in the United States is a great collection
displayed in a great country house. Passing through successive generations of a single family,
Winterthur has been a private estate for more than a century. Even after the extensive
renovations made to it between 1929 and 1931, the house remained a family residence. This fact
is of importance to the atmosphere and effect of the museum. The impression of a lived-in house

is apparent to the visitor: the rooms look as if they were vacated only a short while ago whether
by the original owners of the furniture or the most recent residents of the house can be a matter
of personal interpretation. Winterthur remains, then, a house in which a collection of furniture
and architectural elements has been assembled. Like an English country house, it is an organic
structure; the house, as well as the collection and manner of displaying it to the visitor, has
changed over the years. The changes have coincided with developing concepts of the American
arts, increased knowledge on the part of collectors and students, and a progression toward the
achievement of a historical effect in period-room displays. The rooms at Winterthur have
followed this current, yet still retained the character of a private house.

The concept of a period room as a display technique has developed gradually over the
years in an effort to present works of art in a context that would show them to greater effect and
would give them more meaning for the viewer. Comparable to the habitat group in a natural
history museum, the period room represents the decorative arts in a lively and interesting manner
and provides an opportunity to assemble objects related by style, date, or place of manufacture.

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 43 to 50.
The countryside of Britain is well known for its beauty and many contrasts: its bare
mountains and moorland, its lakes, rivers and woods, and its long, often wild coastline. Many of
the most beautiful areas are national parks and are protected from development. When British
people think of the countryside they think of farmland, as well as open spaces. They imagine
cows or sheep in green fields enclosed by hedges or stone walls, and fields of wheat and barley.
Most farmland is privately owned but is crossed by a network of public footpaths.
Many people associate the countryside with peace and relaxation. They spend their free time
walking or cycling there, or go to the country for a picnic or a pub lunch. In summer people go to
fruit farms and pick strawberries and other fruit. Only a few people who live in the country work

on farms. Many commute to work in towns. Many others dream of living in the country, where
they believe they would have a better and healthier lifestyle.
The countryside faces many threats. Some are associated with modern farming practices,
and the use of chemicals harmful to plants and wildlife. Land is also needed for new houses. The
green belt, an area of land around many cities, is under increasing pressure. Plans to build new
roads are strongly opposed by organizations trying to protect the countryside. Protesters set up
camps to prevent, or at least delay, the building work.
America has many areas of wild and beautiful scenery, and there are many areas, especially
in the West in states like Montana and Wyoming, where few people live. In the New England
states, such as Vermont and New Hampshire, it is common to see small farms surrounded by
hills and green areas. In Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other Midwestern states, fields of corn or
wheat reach to the horizon and there are many miles between towns.
Only about 20% of Americans live outside cities and towns. Life may be difficult for people
who live in the country. Services like hospitals and schools may be further away and going
shopping can mean driving long distances. Some people even have to drive from their homes to
the main road where their mail is left in a box. In spite of the disadvantages, many people who
live in the country say that they like the safe, clean, attractive environment. But their children
often move to a town or city as soon as they can.
As in Britain, Americans like to go out to the country at weekends. Some people go on
camping or fishing trips, others go hiking in national parks.
Question 43: We can see from the passage that in the countryside of Britain _______
A. it is difficult to travel from one farm to another
B. only a few farms are publicly owned
C. none of the areas faces the sea
D. most beautiful areas are not well preserved
Question 44: The word “enclosed” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______
A. surrounded

B. embraced

C. blocked

D. rotated

Question 45: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an activity of relaxation in the
countryside of Britain?
A. Riding a bicycle

B. Going for a walk

C. Going swimming

D. Picking fruit

Question 46: What does the word “they” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Those who dream of living in the country

B. Those who go to the country for a picnic

C. Those who commute to work in towns

D. Those who go to fruit farms in summer

Question 47: Which of the following threatens the countryside in Britain?
A. Protests against the building work

B. Plants and wildlife

C. Modern farming practices

D. The green belt around cities

Question 48: According to the passage, all of the following are true EXCEPT _______
A. the green belt is under pressure because of the need for land
B. the use of chemicals harms the environment of the countryside
C. camps are set up by protesters to stop the construction work
D. all organizations strongly oppose plans for road construction
Question 49: According to the passage, some Americans choose to live in the country because
______
A. their children enjoy country life
B. hospitals, schools and shops are conveniently located there
C. they enjoy the safe, clean, attractive environment there
D. life there may be easier for them
Question 50: Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Both British and American people are thinking of moving to the countryside.
B. Towns in some Midwestern states in the US are separated by long distances.
C. Many British people think of the country as a place of peace and relaxation.
D. The majority of American people live in cities and towns.
