1097 . Strange spaces of silence seem to separate one period of activity from another. There was Sapho and a little group of women all writing poetry on a Greek island before the birth of Christ. A long  silence followed. Then about the year 1,000 we find a certain court lady writing a very long and beautiful novel in Japan. But in England in the sixteenth century, when the dramatists and poets were most active, the women were dumb, Elizabethan literature is exclusively masculine. Then, at the end of the eighteenth century and in the beginning of the nineteenth century, we find women again writing-this time in England— with extraordinary frequency and success. 1.Silence related to___
  • A. peace
  • B. general inactitvity
  • C. Writing
  • D. noiselessness

1100 . Read the passage below and choose the best alternative (A. B, C, or D) to answer the questions. Throughout human history there have been many stringent taboos concerning watching other people eat or eating in the presence of others. There have been attempts to explain these taboos in terms of inappropriate social relationships either between those who are involved and those who are not simultaneously involved in the satisfaction of a bodily need or between those already satiated and those who appear to be shamelessly gorging. Undoubtedy such elements exist in the taboos, but there is an additional element with a much more fundamental importance. In prehistoric times, when food was so precious and the on-lookers so hungry, not to offer half of the little food one had was unthinkable since every glance was a plea for life. Further, during those times, people existed in nuclear or extended family groups, and the sharing of food was quit literally supporting one's family or, by extension, preserving one's self.   In developing the main idea of the passage, the author does which of the following?
  • A. Downplays earlier attempts to explain the origins of a social prohibition
  • B. Adapts a scientific theory and applies it to a spiritual relationship.
  • C. Simplifies a complex biological phenomenon by explaining it in terms of social needs.

1108 . Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow Capitalism is developed in the European countries as a result of their 'laissez-faire' policy. The idea of global trade which was inherent in capitalism has now become universalized. Taking advantage of the idea of globalization, capitalism seems to be on a triumphant march.

The global strategy of development promises greater employment opportunities to the people of poor countries but at the same time it also promises high returns to capital. This actually paves the way for lasting poverty which enables the capitalists to continue to have a pool of cheap labor to draw from. The passage suggests that capitalism

  • B. promises prosperity to poor countries
  • C. ensures equal trade among nations
