IV. COMPREHENSION READING
Read the following passage. For questions 52 – 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to each
question.
Probably the most famous film commenting on 20
th
century technology is Modern Times, made in 1936. Charlie
Chaplin was motivated to make the film by a reporter who, while interviewing him, happened to describe working conditions
in industrial Detroit. Chaplin, together with healthy young farm boys, was lured to the city to work as automotive assembly

lines. Within four or five years, these young men’s health was destroyed by the stress of work in the factories.

Scenes of factory interiors account for less than one-third of the footage of Modern Times, but they contain some of
the film’s most pointed social commentary as well as its funniest comic situations. No one who has seen the film can ever
forget Chaplin vainly trying to keep pace with the fast-moving conveyor belt, almost losing his mind in the process.
Cleary, Modern Times has its faults, but it remains the best film treating technology within a social context. It does
not offer a radical social message, but it accurately reflects the sentiments of many who felt they were helpless victims of an
over-mechanized world.

A. criticize the factory system of the 1930s C. explain Chaplin’s style of acting
B. describe an important film D. discuss how film reveals the benefits of technology

from ________.
A. a newspaper article B. a scene in a movie C. a job had once held D. a conversation with a reporter
