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.
This rapid transcontinental settlement and these new urban industrial circumstances of the
last half of the 19th century were accompanied by the development of a national literature of great
abundance and variety. New themes, new forms, new subjects, new regions, new authors, new
audiences all emerged in the literature of this half century.
As a result, at the onset of World War I, the spirit and substance of American literature had
evolved remarkably, just as its center of production had shifted from Boston to New York in the late
1880s and the sources of its energy to Chicago and the Midwest. No longer was it produced, at least
in its popular forms, in the main by solemn, typically moralistic men from New England and the
Old South; no longer were polite, well-dressed, grammatically correct, middle-class young people
the only central characters in its narratives; no longer were these narratives to be set in exotic places
and remote times; no longer, indeed, were fiction, poetry, drama, and formal history the chief
acceptable forms of literary expression; no longer, finally, was literature read primarily by young,
middle class women.
In sum, American literature in these years fulfilled in considerable measure the condition

Walt Whitman called for in 1867 in describing Leaves of Grass: it treats, he said of his own major
work, each state and region as peers "and expands from them, and includes the world ... connecting
an American citizen with the citizens of all nations." At the same time, these years saw the
emergence of what has been designated "the literature of argument," powerful works in sociology,
philosophy, psychology, many of them impelled by the spirit of exposure and reform. Just as
America learned to play a role in this half century as an autonomous international political,
economic, and military power, so did its literature establish itself as a producer of major works.

Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of
communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral
speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in
which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort
to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact
and can be used internationally, spelling, however, cannot.
Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or
unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod
signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.
Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read
with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also
guide, warn, and instruct people.
While verbalization is the most common form of language, other systems and techniques
also express human thoughts and feelings.
Câu 47: Which form other than oral speech would be the most commonly be the most commonly
used among blind people?
A. Signal flags

B. Picture signs

C. Body language

D. Braille

Câu 48: Which of the following best summarizes this passage?
A. Although other forms of communication exist, verbalization is the fastest.
B. When language is a barrier, people will find other forms of communication.
