magazines cater to every imaginable field and activity. In the United Kingdom, over 12,000
periodicals, magazines, bulletins, annuals, trade journals, and academic journals are published on a
regular basis. There are some 40 women‘s magazines and over 60 dealing with particular sports games,
hobbies, and pastimes. Although some US magazines, such as The Saturday Evening Post, has
succumbed to the circulations, The Reader‘s Digest over 16 million, the National Geographic over 10
million. For many people, magazines have been the most available and widely used form of continuing
education, providing information about history, geography, literature, science, and the arts, and as well
as guidance on gardening, cooking, home decorating, financial management, psychology, even
marriage and family life.

Until the rise of television, magazines were the most available form of cheap, convenient
entertainment in the English-speaking world. Radio served a similar function, but it was more limited
in what it could do. Magazines and television, however, both address the more powerful visual sense.
During the third quarter of the 20th century, coincident with a dramatic rise in the popularity of
television, many general-interest, especially illustrated magazines went out of business. The shift in
attention of a mass audience from reading such magazines to watching television has been a
majorfactor in this decline, but it is an implicit tribute to the older genre that its programs are generally

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 55 to 64.
The term ―art deco‖ has come to encompass three distinct but related design trends of the 1920‘s
and 1930‘s. The first was what is frequently referred to as ―zigzag moderne‖ –the exotically
ornamental style of such skyscrapers as the Chrysler Building in New York City and related structures
such as the Paramount Theater in Oakland, California. The word ―zigzag‖ alludes to the
geometric and stylized ornamentation of zigzags, angular patterns, abstracted plant and animal
motifs, sunbursts, astrological imagery, formalized fountains, and related themes that were applied in

mosaic relief and mural form to the exterior and interior of the buildings. Many of these buildings were
shaped in the ziggurat form, a design resembling an ancient Mesopotamian temple tower that
recedes in progressively smaller stages to the summit, creating a staircase-like effect.
The second manifestation of art deco was the 1930‘s ―streamlined moderne‖ style—a Futuristiclooking aerodynamic style of rounded corners and horizontal bands known as ―speed stripes.‖ In
architecture, these elements were frequently accompanied by round windows, extensive use of glass
block, and flat rooftops.
The third style, referred to as ― international stripped classicism‖ also came to the forefront during
the Depression, a period of severe economic difficult in the 1930‘s. This was a more conservative
style, blending a simplified modernistic style with a more austere form of geometric and stylized
relief sculpture and other ornament, including interior murals. May buildings in this style were
erected nationwide through government programs during the Depression .
Although art deco in its many forms was largely perceived as thoroughly modern, it was strongly
influenced by the decorative arts movements that immediately preceded it. For example, like ―art
nouveau‖ (1890-1910), art deco also used plant motifs, but regularized the forms into abstracted
repetitive patterns rather than presenting them as flowing, asymmetrical foliage, Like the Viennese
craftspeople of the Wiener Werkstatte, art deco designers worked with exotic materials, geometricized
shapes, and colorfully ornate patterns. Furthermore, like the artisans of the Arts and Crafts Movement
in England and the United States, art deep practitioners considered it their mission to transform the
domestic environment through well-designed furniture and household accessories.
Question 55. What aspect of art deco does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The influence of art deco on the design of furniture and household accessories
B. Ways in which government programs encouraged the development of art deco
C. Architectural manifestations of art deco during the 1920‘s and 1930‘s
D. Reasons for the popularity of art deco in New York and California
Question 56. The word ―encompass‖ in line 1 is closest in meaning to …………
A. separate
B. include

C. replace
D. enhance
Question 57. The phrase ―The first‖ in line 2 refers to …………..
A. the term ―art deco‖
B. design trends
C. the 1920‘s and 1930‘s
D. skyscrapers
Question 58. In line 8, the author mentions ―an ancient Mesopotamian temple tower ‖ in order to
……….
A. describe the exterior shape of certain ―art deco‖ buildings
B. explain the differences between ancient and modern architectural steles
C. emphasize the extent of architectural advances
D. argue for a return to more traditional architectural design
Question 59. The streamlined moderne style is characterized by all of the following EXCEPT
………..
A. animal motifs
B. flat roofs
C. round windows
D. ―speed stripes‖
Question 60. The phrase ―came to the forefront‖ in line 15 is closest in meaning to …………..
A. grew in complexity
C. went through a process
B. changed its approach
D. became important

Depression era.
B. They were essentially the same art form.
C. Art nouveau preceded art deco and influenced it.

D. Art deco became important in the United States while art nouveau became popular in
England.

probably have been designed in the style of ………….

5

Part 2:
My dream of becoming a doctor has formed in me since I was a child when my mother took me to
hospital to visit my grandfather who had just suffered a heart attack. Looking at my grandfather‘s face
distorted by the pain, I felt sorry for him and at that very moment I decided to be a doctor. As I

progressed in school and maturity, my interests evolved into the people-oriented aspects of medicine.
In retrospect, this interest in people was manifested in many of my extracurricular activities whose
central theme was helping people of all ages undergoing heart disease. During my experience at the
SOS Hospital, I gained profound insight into the healing relationship between patient and doctor and
perceived the euphoria when seeing my efforts had worked out. Now, I‘m trying my best to
accumulate and improve my medical knowledge, experiences to become a devoted doctor later.
