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.
Although management principles have been implemented since ancient times, most management scholars
trace the beginning of modern management thought back to the early 1900s, beginning with the pioneering
work of Frederick Taylor (1856-1915) Taylor was the first person to study work scientifically. He is most
famous for introducing techniques of time and motion study, differential piece rate systems, and for
systematically specializing the work of operating employees and managers. Along with other pioneers such
as Frank and Lillian Gilbreth, Taylor set the stage, labeling his philosophy and methods “scientific
management’. At that time, his philosophy, which was concerned with productivity, but which was often
misinterpreted as promoting worker interests at the expense of management, was in marked contrast to the
prevailing industrial norms of worker exploitation.
The time and motion study concepts were popularized by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth. The Gilbreths had
12 children. By analyzing his children’s dishwashing and bed making chores, this pioneer efficiency expert,
Frank Gilbreth, hit on principles whereby workers could eliminate waste motion. He was memorialized by
two of his children in their 1949 book called “Cheaper by the Dozen”.
The Gilbreth methods included using stop watches to time worker movements and special tools
(cameras and special clocks) to monitor and study worker performance, and also involved identification of
“therbligs” (Gilbreth spelled backwards) - basic motions used in production jobs. Many of these motions
and accompanying times have been used to determine how long it should take a skilled worker to perform a
given job. In this way an industrial engineer can get a handle on the approximate time it should take to
produce a product or provide a service. However, use of work analysis in this way is unlikely to lead to
useful results unless all five work dimensions are considered: physical, psychological, social, cultural, and
power.
Question 20.What is the passage primarily about?
A. The limitations of pioneering studies in understanding human behavior
B. How time and motion studies were first developed
C. The first applications of a scientific approach to understanding human behavior
D. The beginnings of modern management theory
Question 21.The word “which” in the passage refers to
A. scientific management
B. philosophy

C. productivity
D. time and motion study

A. workers welcomed the application of scientific management
B. Talor’s philosophy is different from the industrial norms
C. by the early 1900s science had reached a stage where it could be applied to the workplace
D. workers were no longer exploited after the introduction of scientific management.
Question 23.The word “prevailing” is closest in meaning to
A. predominant
B. broadly accepted C. prevalent
D. common
Question 24.According to the passage, Frank Gilbreth discovered how workers could eliminate waste
motion by
A. using special tools such as cameras and clocks
B. using stop watches
C. applying scientific management principles
D. watching his children do their chores
Question 25.According to the passage, the time it takes a skilled worker to perform the motion of a given
job can be measured by using

considered.
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions.
In most of the earliest books for children, illustrations were an afterthought. But in the Caldecott
“toy books”, which first appeared in 1878, they were almost as important as the lines of text, and
occupied far more space in the book. One can almost read the story from the dramatic action in the
pictures.
Since then, thousands of successful picture books have been published in the United States and around
the world. In the best, the words and illustrations seem to complement each other perfectly. Often a
single person is responsible for both writing and illustrating the book. One of the greatest, and certainly one
of the most successful, illustrator-authors was Dr. Seuss, whose real name was Theodor Geisel. His first
children’s book, And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street, hit the market in 1937, and the world of

children’s literature was changed forever. Seuss’s playful drawings were a perfect complement to his
engaging stories and unforgettable characters. In 1957, Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat became the first book in
Random House’s best -selling series, Beginner Books, written by Seuss and several other authors. These
combine outrageous illustrations of people, creatures, and plants, and playful stories written in very simple
language.
Dr. Seuss is not the only well-known author-illustrator, of course. There is Max Sendak, who wrote and
illustrated Where the Wild Things Are, the story of a little boy named Max, who becomes king of the fierce (
but funny) creatures that live in the Land of the Wilds Things. Robert McCloskey produced both the richly
textured illustrations and delightful story of a family of ducks living in downtown Boston, Make
Ways for Ducklings. Some books are produced by a collaborative author artist team. Author Margaret Wise
Brown combined with illustrator Clement Hurd to produce two delightful books loved by very young
children, Goodnight Moon and The Runaway Bunny. Another example is the husband-and-wife team of
writer Audrey Wood and illustrator Don Wood, who were responsible for King Bidgood’s in the Bathtub
and The Napping House.
Wordless and nearly wordless picture books have become popular. With a little help, threeand four-yearolds can follow the sequence of events, and they can understand the stories suggested in them. The marvel of
books with few or no words is that they allow children and their parents the opportunity to tell and retell
the same stories over and over in their own words. One of the most charming examples of a
wordless book is Jan Omerod’sSunshine. Barbara Berger’s Grandfather Twilight and David Weisner’s
Tuesday are examples of books containing only a few words.
U.S. publishers have also drawn on illustrators from other countries whose original, imaginative
works have brought their different visions to American children’s books. Among them are Leo Lionni from
Italy, Feodor Rojankovsky from Russia, and Taro Yashimi from Japan.

A. In late 19th century
