Soru 13 : Throughout his working life, Shakespeare worked as an actor in the midst of a troupe. We know little about his first years in London. For a few years between 1585 and 1592, his name disappears altogether from the public records, and the most likely reason for this is that, for at least some of this time, he was working for one of the city's acting companies; as a junior member he would not be listed among the troupe's principal players. In the late 1580s theatrical activity in London was largely concentrated in Shoreditch, and Southwark, districts of London Shakespeare could have lived anywhere, but Shareditch, which would have been cheap and convenient, is a likely candidate for a young actor. In his early career Shakespeare may have moved from troupe to troupe in order to survive. Whatever the case, working conditions must have been similar. Sundays, religious holidays and disasters side, a company would perform a different play each afternoon of the week, though some plays would be repeated in the weeks ahead. An actor usually had to keep at least 30 parts in his memory and a leading player such as Alleyn or Burbage must have kept in mind nearly 5,000 lines a week.
We learn from the passage that, in Shakespeare's London, theatres ------.
A) competed with each other to get Alleyn or Burbage in their troupe
B) were normally open to the public six afternoons a week
C) provided actors with a comfortable and profitable way of life
D) were rather like drama schools and they trained actors
E) all had their own leading players

Soru 28 : The Romans were descended from a cluster of peoples who had crossed the Alps into Italy during the second millenium B.C. and spoke a variety of Indo-European dialects. Recent archaeological research has pushed the origins of the city of Rome back to at least the tenth century B.C., several centuries earlier than the traditional date 753 B.C., which the Romans themselves considered their city’s foundation year. Rome’s strategic location along the Tiber River brought it many different advantages.Trading ships could navigate the Tiber as far as Rome, but no farther; the city could thus serve as a port without being threatened by attack from the sea. Rome’s famous hills increased the defensibility of the site. In other words, as a city, Rome was situated at a junction across the Tiber, making it a major land and river crossroads.
It is pointed out in the passage that the ancestors of the Romans ----.
A) believed that the Alps would provide perfect defence against invasions from the North
B) came from the North and settled in Italy around the tenth century B.C.

Soru 40 : The idea that American Indians could have built something resembling a city was so foreign to European settlers that when they encountered the Cahokia Mounds in Illinois in Midwest America, they thought they must have been the work of a foreign civilization: either the Phoenicians or the Vikings. Even today the idea of an Indian city runs so contrary to American notions of Indian life that no Anglo-Saxon American can absorb it. The first person to write an account of the Cahokia Mounds, the earliest and finest city built by Indians, was Henry Bracken bridge in 1811.When he reported his discovery, likening it to Egyptian pyramids, newspapers widely ignored it. He complained of this to his friend, former president Thomas Jefferson, and the word of 'Cahokia' did eventually get around. Unfortunately, most Americans were not very interested. The United States was trying to get the Indians out of the way, not appreciate their history. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 which ordered the relocation of eastern Indians to lands west of the Mississippi was based on the assumption that Indians were nomadic savages with no ability to make good use of land. Evidence of an ancient city, close to the size of Washington, D.C. at that time, would have spoiled the story line.
It can be inferred from the passage that, if news of the discovery of a big Indian city had spread throughout America —.
A) the newspapers would have been eager to publicize the beauty of the Cahokia Mounds
B) journalists across America would have wanted to interview the discoverer, Henry Brackenbridge
C) ordinary people would have had difficulty endorsing the Indian Removal Act of 1830
D) the government may not have been able to remove the Indians from their land so easily
E) most Americans would have respected the American Indians for their civilized attitude

Soru 42 : Government planners and social scientists from many countries are developing a number of strategies to help us adapt to global warming. For example, what should people living in coastal areas do? They can move inland away from the dangers of storm surges, although this solution has high economic costs. An alternative plan, which is also extremely expensive, is to build dikes to protect coastal land. The Dutch, who have been doing this sort of thing for several hundred years, have offered their technical expertise to several developing nations threatened by a rise in sea level. We also have to adapt to shifting agricultural zones. Many temperate countries are in the process of evaluating semitropical crops to determine the best ones to substitute for traditional crops if or when the climate warms. Drought-resistant species of trees are being developed by large lumber companies now, because the trees planted today will be harvested many decades later when global warming may already get much worse.
As implied in the passage, the Dutch ----.
A) have a long history of experience in the construction of dikes
B) are very concerned about some coastal areas threatened by a rise in sea level
C) have been reluctant to cooperate technically with some developing countries
D) learned how to build dikes about a hundred years ago to protect their coastal areas
