Clothing is a distinctly human artifact. Even more than an use of tools, it distinguishes humans
from other creatures on this planet. While there are other creatures who use implements in a greater
or lesser degree, clothing is unique to humanity. Clothing is also uniquely human in what it serves
more than one function. The basis purpose of clothing was originally utilitarian. By putting on an
artificial skin, humans were unable to move into regions where they otherwise would have been
unable to cope with the climate. An extreme example of this use of clothing can see among the
Eskimos, and other people who live with extreme cold. However, clothing was not yet used for
protection from the elements, but has also been a mean of displaying one's status and sense of style
for as long as humans have had civilisation. Thus clothing also developed in countries which there

is no real practical need for it, except from the other, very human function of preserving the
modest of the wearer.

Session 3. Complete the following passage by supplying the correct form of the word to the right of each line.

PART III. READING
Session 1. Read the passage and choose the best answer (A, B, C or D) to each of the questions that follows.
According to sociologists, there are several different ways in which a person may become recognized
as the leader of a social group in the United States. In the family, traditional cultural patterns confer
leadership on one or both of the parents. In other cases, such as friendship groups, one or more persons may
gradually emerge as leaders, although there is no formal process of selection. In larger groups, leaders are
usually chosen formally through election or recruitment.
Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades of research
have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of “natural leaders”. It seems that there
is no set of personal qualities that all leaders have in common; rather, virtually any person may be
recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group.

Furthermore, although it is commonly supposed that social groups have a single leader, research
suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that are held by different individuals.
Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group. Group
members look to instrumental leaders to “get things done”. Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is
leadership that emphasizes the collective well-being of a social group’s members. Expressive leaders are less
concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and
attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them. Group members expect expressive leaders to
maintain stable relationships within the group and provide support to individual members.
Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather secondary relationship to other group members. They
give orders and may discipline group members who inhibit attainment of the group’s goals. Expressive
leaders cultivate a more personal or primary relationship to others in the group. They offer sympathy when
someone experiences difficulties or is subjected to discipline, are quick to lighten a serious moment with
humor, and try to resolve issues that threaten to divide the group. As the differences in these two roles
suggest, expressive leaders generally receive more personal affection from group members; instrumental
leaders, if they are successful in promoting group goals, may enjoy a more distant respect.
1. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The problems faced by leaders
B. How leadership differs in small and large groups
C. How social groups determine who will lead them
D. The role of leaders in social groups
2. The passage mentions all of the following ways by which people can become leaders EXCEPT________.
A. recruitment
B. formal election process
C. specific leadership training
D. traditional cultural patterns
3. In mentioning “natural leaders” in paragraph 2, the author is making the point that ________.
A. few people qualify as “natural leaders”
B. there is no proof that “natural leaders” exist
C. “natural leaders" are easily accepted by the members of a social group
D. “natural leaders” share a similar set of characteristics

4. Which of the following statements about leadership can be inferred from paragraph 2?
A. A person who is an effective leader of a particular group may not be an effective leader in another group.
B. Few people succeed in sharing a leadership role with another person.
C. A person can best learn how to be an effective leader by studying research on leadership.
D. Most people desire to be leaders but can produce little evidence of their qualifications.
5. The passage indicates that instrumental leaders generally focus on ________.
Page 4 of 6


A. ensuring harmonious relationships
B. sharing responsibility with group members
C. identifying new leaders
D. achieving a goal

C. unreliable
D. personal
