Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer.

 The medieval artists didn’t know about perspective; they didn’t want to make their people look like real, individual people in a real, individual scene. They wanted to show the truth, the eternal quality of their religious stories. So these artists didn’t need to know about perspective.

          In the European Renaissance period, artists wanted to show the importance of the individual person and his or her possessions and surroundings. A flat medieval style couldn’t show this level of reality and the artists needed a new technique. It was the Italian artist Brunelleschi who discovered the technique of perspective drawing. At first the artists of the Renaissance only had single-point perspective. Later they realized that they could have two-pointed perspective and still later multi-point perspective.

          With two-point perspective they could turn an object (like a building) at an angle to the picture and draw two sides of it. The technique of perspective which seems so natural to us now is an invented technique, a part of the “grammar of painting”. Like all bits of grammar there are exceptions about perspective. For example, only vertical and horizontal surfaces seem to meet on eye level. Sloping roof tops don’t meet on eye level.

          For 500 years, artists in Europe made use of perspective drawing in their pictures. Nevertheless, there are a range of priorities that artists give in displaying individual styles. Crivelli wanted to show depth in his picture and he used a simple single-point perspective. Cezanne always talked about space and volume. Van Gogh, like some of the other painters of the Impressionist period, was interested in Japanese prints. And Japanese artists until this century were always very strong designers of “flat” pictures. Picasso certainly made pictures which have volume and depth. However, he wanted to keep our eyes on the surface and to remind us that his paintings are paintings and not illusions.

          It is technically easy to give an illusion of depth. However, a strong two dimensional design is just as important as a feeling of depth, and perhaps more important.

Question 45:The passage mainly discusses

  1. the difference between medieval and Renaissance art
  2. how the technique of perspective influenced the modern art
  3. the discovery of the technique of perspective
  4. the contribution of Renaissance artists

Question 46:The word “eternal” in line 3 is closest in meaning to

  1. timeless B. infinite C. frequent           D. rare

Question 47:According to the passage, which is the main concern for medieval artists?

  1. the individual person and his/her possessions and surroundings
  2. real people, real scenes
  3. eternal truth of the earth
  4. themes of religious stories

Question 48: The discovery of perspective was the result of

  1. Renaissance artists’ to prove that the medieval artists could show level of reality
  2. the need to turn an object at an angle and draw more than one side of it
  3. the subject being shifted from religious stories to individual person and surroundings.
  4. natural evolution of human senses

Question 49:The word “it” in line 13 refers to

  1. the picture B. perspective C. angle         D. the object

Question 50:The word “Grammar ” in line 14 is closest in meaning to

  1. construction B. grammatical rules
  2. rules and regulations D. tones and volume

Question 51:The author’s purpose to give the example in line15-17 is to

  1. explain how perspective work in painting
  2. support two-pointed perspective
  3. illustrate that there are exceptions about perspective
  4. point out that the technique of perspective though seems so natural is an invented technique

Question 52:The word “he” in line 25 refers to

  1. Crivelli B. Cezanne C. Picasso        D. Van Gogh

Question 53: The word ”Illusion” in line 27 is closest in meaning to

  1. deception B. photograph C. decoration      D. illustration

Question 54: It can be inferred from the passage that Renaissance artists

  1. embraced the medieval style of eternal truth
  2. needed to develop a new approach towards painting to show a new level of reality
  3. were inspired by vertical and horizontal surfaces in inventing the technique of perspective
  4. saw two dimensional design more important than a feeling of depth

        The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded annually and the first woman to win this prize was Baroness Bertha Felicie Sophie von Suttner in 1905. In fact, her work inspired the creation of the Prize. The first American woman to win this prize was Jane Addams, in 1931. However, Addams is best known as the founder of Hull House.

        Jane Addams was born in 1860, into a wealthy family. She was one of a small number of women in her generation to graduate from college. Her commitment to improving the lives of those around her led her to work for social reform and world peace. In the 1880s Jane Addams traveled to Europe. While she was in London, she visited a ‘settlement house’ called Toynbee Hall. Inspired by Toynbee Hall, Addams and her friend, Ellen Gates Starr, opened Hull House in a neighborhood of slums in Chicago in 1899. Hull House provided a day care center for children of working mothers, a community kitchen, and visiting nurses. Addams and her staff gave classes in English literacy, art, and other subjects. Hull House also became a meeting place for clubs and labor unions. Most of the people who worked with Addams in Hull House were well educated, middle-class women. Hull House gave them an opportunity to use their education and it provided a training ground for careers in social work.

        Before World War I, Addams was probably the most beloved woman in America. In a newspaper poll that asked, “Who among our contemporaries are of the most value to the community?”, Jane Addams was rated second, after Thomas Edison. When she opposed America’s involvement in World War I, however, newspaper editors called her a traitor and a fool, but she never changed her mind. Jane Addams was a strong champion of several other causes. Until 1920, American women could not vote. Addams joined in the movement for women’s suffrage and was a vice president of the National American Woman Suffrage Association. She was a founding member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), and was president of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom. . Her reputation was gradually restored during the last years of her life. She died of cancer in 1935.
