There are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece. The one most widely accepted today is based on the assumption that drama evolved from ritual. The argument for this view goes as follows, in the beginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world, even the seasonal changes, as unpredictable, and they sought through various means, to control these unknown and feared powers. Those measures which appeared to bring the desired results were then retained and repeated until they hardened into fixed rituals. Eventually stories arose which explained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed some rituals were abandoned, but the stories, later called myths, persisted and provided material for art and drama.

Those who believe that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rites contained the seed of theater because music, dance, masks, and costumes were almost always used. Furthermore, a suitable site had to be provided for performances, and when the entire community did not participate, a clear division was usually made between the "acting area" and the "auditorium." In addition, there were performers, and since considerable importance was attached to avoiding mistakes in the enactment of rites, religious leaders usually assumed that task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often impersonated other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and mimed the desired effect - success in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival of the Sun - as an actor might. Eventually such dramatic representations were separated from religious activities.

Another theory traces the theater's origin from the human interest in storytelling. According to this view, tales (about the hunt, war, or other feats) are gradually elaborated, at first through the use of impersonation, action, and dialogue by a narrator and then through the assumption of each of the roles by a different person. A closely related theory traces theater to those dances that are primarily rhythmical and gymnastic or that are imitations of animal movements and sounds.

Edvard Munch, one of the greatest artists of his (66) ______, was bom in Norway in 1863. In 1899 he travelled to Paris, where he became familiar (67) ______ the current trends in French art. He began to (68) ______ an unusual artistic style, in which he tried to (69) ______ his deep inner feelings rather than the appearance of what he was painting.

VIII. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer for each question.When we accept the evidence of our unaided eyes and describe the Sun as ayellow star, we have summed up the most important single fact about it - at this moment in time, it appears probable, however, that sunlight will be the color we know for only a negligibly small part of the Sun's history.

Stars, like individuals, age and change. As we look out into space, we see around us stars at all stages of evolution. There are faint bloodred dwarfs so cool that their surface temperature is a mere 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit; there are searing ghosts blazing at 100,000 degrees Fahrenheit and almost too hot to be seen, for the great part of their radiation is in the invisible ultraviolet range. Obviously, the “daylight” produced by any star depends on its temperature; today (and for ages to come) our Sun is at about 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit, and this means that most of the Sun’s light is concentrated in the yellow band of the spectrum, falling slowly in intensitytoward both the longer and shorter light waves.

That yellow “hump” will shift as the Sun evolves, and the light of day will change accordingly. It is natural to assume that as the sun grows older, and uses up its hydrogen fuel - which it is now doing at the spanking rate of half a billion tons a second - it will become steadily colder and redder.

76. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Faint dwarf stars. B. The evolutionary cycle of the Sun.

c. The Sun's fuel problem. D. The dangers of invisible radiation.

77. What does the author say is especially important about the Sun at the present time?

A. It appears yellow. B. It always remains the same.

c. It has a short history. D. It is too cold.

78. Why are very hot stars referred to as “ghosts”?

A. They are short-lived. B. They are mysterious,

c. They are frightening. D. They are nearly invisible.

79. According to the passage, as the Sun continues to age, it is likely to become what color?

A. Yellow. B. Violet. c. Red. D. White.

80. In the passage, to which of the following does the word “it" refer?

A. Yellow “hump”. B. Day. c. Sun. D. Hydrogen fuel.

One of the most important (25) _____ of a standardized test is time. You’ll only be allowed a certain number of minutes for each section, so it is very important that (26) _______. The most important time strategy is pacing yourself. Before you begin, take just a few seconds to survey the test, noting the number of questions and the sections that looks easier than the rest. Then, make a rough time schedule based on the amount of time available to you. Mark the half-way point on your test and make a note beside that mark of the time when the testing period is half over.

Once you begin the test, continue moving. If you work slowly in an attempt to make fewer mistakes, your mind will become bored and begin to wander. You’ll end up making far more mistakes if you’re not concentrating. If you take too long to answer questions that stump you, you may end up (27) _____out of time before you finish. So don’t stop for difficult questions. Skip them and move on. You can come back to them later if you have time. A question that takes you five seconds to answer counts as much as one that takes you several minutes, so pick up the easy points first. (28)___________, answering the easier questions first helps build your confidence and gets you in the testing groove. If you are a little ahead, you know you are on track and may even have a little time left to check your work. If you are a little behind, you have 4 several choices. You can pick up the pace a little, but do this (29) ______ if you can do it comfortably.
