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 24 to 30.

Duncan Phyfe made some of the most beautiful furniture found in America. His family name was
originally Fife, and he was born in Scotland in 1768. In 1784, the Fife family immigrated to Albany, New
York where Duncan’s father opened a cabinetmaking shop. Duncan followed his father’s footsteps and was
apprenticed to a cabinetmaker. After completing his training, Duncan moved to New York City.
Duncan Fife was first mentioned in the 1792 NYC Directory as a furniture “joiner” in business at 2
Broad Street. Two years later, he moved, expanded his business, and changed his name to Phyfe. He was a
Trang 2/7 - Mã đề thi 132


quiet-living, God-fearing young man who felt his new name would probably appeal to potential customers
who were definitely anti-British in this post-Revolutionary War period.
Duncan Phyfe’s name distinguished him from his contemporaries. Although the new spelling helped
him better compete with French emigrant craftsmen, his new name had more to do with hanging it on a sign
over his door stoop.
The artisans and merchants who came to America discovered a unique kind of freedom. They were no
longer restricted by class and guild traditions of Europe. For the first time in history, a man learned that by
working hard, he could build his business based on his own name and reputation and quality of work.
Phyfe’s workshop apparently took off immediately. At the peak of his success, Phyfe employed 100
craftsmen. Some economic historians point to Phyfe as having employed division of labor and an assembly
line. What his workshop produced shows Phyfe’s absolute dedication to quality in workmanship. Each piece
of furniture was made of the best available materials. He was reported to have paid $1,000 for a single Santo
Domingo mahogany log.
Phyfe did not create new designs. Rather, he borrowed from a broad range of the period’s classical
styles, Empire, Sheraton, Regency, and French Classical among them. Nevertheless, Phyfe’s high quality
craftsmanship established him as America’s patriotic interpreter of European design in the late eighteenth
and early nineteenth centuries.
Although the number of pieces produced by Duncan Phyfe’s workshop is enormous, comparatively
few marked or labeled pieces have been found extant. In antiques shops and auctions, collectors have paid
$11,000 for a card table, $24,200 for a tea table, and $93,500 for a sewing table.
Câu 24: What is the main idea of the passage?

A. The business of cabinetmaking.
C. Duncan Phyfe’s life and career.

B. The significance of Duncan Phyfe’s name.
D. Duncan Phyfe’s cabinetmaking designs.

Câu 25: According to the passage, which of the following does the author imply?
A. Duncan Fife and his father had the same first name.
B. Duncan Fife worked for his father in Scotland.
C. Duncan Fife and his father were in the same business.
D. Duncan Phyfe made over 100 different kinds of tables.
Câu 26: Which choice does the word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. His spelling
B. His chair
C. His French

D. His name

Câu 27: Which choice is closest in meaning to the word “guild” in paragraph 4?
A. Verdict of a jury
B. Organization of craftsmen
C. Political party of emigrants
D. Immigrants’ club
Câu 28: In his business, Duncan Phyfe used all of the following EXCEPT________.
A. division of labor
B. an assembly line
C. continental designs
D. the least expensive materials
Câu 29: Based on the information in the passage, what can be inferred about Duncan Phyfe’s death?
A. He died in the eighteenth century.

B. He died in Albany.
C. He died in the nineteenth century.
D. He died in Scotland.
Câu 30: The author implies that________.
A. furniture from Duncan Phyfe’s workshop no longer exists.
B. furniture from Duncan Phyfe’s workshop costs a lot of money today.
C. furniture from Duncan Phyfe’s workshop was ignored by New Yorkers.
D. furniture from Duncan Phyfe’s workshop was made by his father.

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 following questions from 36 to 43.
The work of women has been economically vital since prehistory, although their contributions have
varied according to the structure, needs, customs, and attitudes of society.
In prehistoric times, women and men participated almost equally in hunting and gathering activities to
obtain food. With the development of agricultural communities, women’s work revolved more around the
home. As urban centres developed, women sold or traded goods in the marketplace.
From ancient to modern times, four generalizations can be made about women's paid work. Women
have worked because of economic necessity; poor women in particular worked outside the home whether
they were unmarried or married, and especially if their husbands were unable to sustain the family solely
through their own work. Women’s indentured work has often been similar to their work at home. Women
have maintained the primary responsibility for raising children, regardless of their paid work. Women have
historically been paid less than men and have been allocated lower-status work
Some major changes are now occurring in industrial nations, including the steadily increasing
proportion of women in the labor force; decreasing family responsibilities (due to both smaller family size

and technological innovation in the home); higher levels of education for women; and more middle and
upper-income women working for pay or for job satisfaction. Statistically, they have not yet achieved parity
of pay or senior appointments in the workplace in any nation.
Artisans working in their own homes not infrequently used the labor of their families. This custom
was so prevalent during the Middle Ages, craft guilds of the period, including some that otherwise excluded

Trang 4/7 - Mã đề thi 132


women, often admitted to membership the widows of guild members, providing they met professional
requirements. Dressmaking and lacemaking guilds were composed exclusively of women.
Gradually, the guilds were replaced by the putting-out system, whereby tools and materials were
distributed to workers by merchants; the workers then produced articles on a piecework basis in their
homes. During the 18th and early 19th centuries, as the Industrial Revolution developed, the putting-out
system slowly declined. Goods that had been produced by hand in the home were manufactured by machine
under the factory system. Women competed more with men for some jobs, but were concentrated primarily
in textile mills and clothing factories. Manufacturers often favored women employees because of relevant
skills and lower wages, and also because early trade union organization tended to occur first among men.
Employees in sweatshops were also preponderantly women. The result was to institutionalize systems of
low pay, poor working conditions, long hours, and other abuses, which along with child labor presented
some of the worst examples of worker exploitation in early industrial capitalism. Minimum wage legislation
and other protective laws, when introduced, concentrated particularly on the alleviation of these abuses of
working women.
Women workers in business and the professions, the so-called white-collar occupations, suffered less
from poor conditions of work and exploitative labor, but were denied equality of pay and opportunity. The
growing use of the typewriter and the telephone after the 1870s created two new employment niches for
women, as typists and telephonists, but in both fields the result was again to institutionalize a permanent
category of low-paid, low-status women’s work.

A. less at home

C. more outside
D. in groups

A. have been respected at home and in the workplace
B. have enjoyed equal status in the workplace
C. have not yet achieved high status in the workplace
