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 believed that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rites
contained the seed of theater because music, dance, mask, 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,
Trang 3/6-Mã đề 001
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.
Question 37: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The origins of theater
B. The importance of storytelling
C. The role of ritual in modern dance
D. The variety of early religious activities
Question 38: The word “ they” in paragraph 2 refers to__________
A. theories B. human beings

Question 39: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a common element of theater

A. Magic B. Music C. Costumes D. Dance
Question 40: According to the passage, what is the main difference between ritual and
drama?
A. Ritual uses music whereas drama does not.
B. Ritual is shorter than drama.
C. Ritual requires fewer performers than drama.
D. Ritual has a religious purpose and drama does not.
Question 41: The word “ enactment” is closet in meaning to_______
A. authorization B. season C. performance D. establishment
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.
Contrary to popular belief, one does not have to be trained programmer to work
online. Of course, there are plenty of jobs available for people with high-tech computer
skills, but the growth of new media has opened up a wide range of Internet career
opportunities requiring only a minimal level of technical expertise. Probably one of the
most well-known online job opportunities is the job of webmaster. However, it is hard
to define one basic job description for this position. The qualifications and
responsibilities depend on what tasks a particular organization needs a webmaster to
perform.
To specify the job description of a webmaster, one needs to identify
the hardware
and software that the website the webmaster will manage is running on. Different types
of hardware and software require different skill sets to manage them.
Another key
factor is whether the website will be running internally (at the firm itself) or externally
(renting shared space on the company servers). Finally, the responsibilities of a
webmaster also depend on whether he or she will be working independently, or whether
the firm will provide people to help. All of these factors need to be considered before
one can create an accurate webmaster job description.
Webmaster is one type of Internet career requiring in-depth knowledge of the latest
computer applications. However, there are also online jobs available for which
traditional skills remain in high demand. Content jobs require excellent writing skills
and a good sense of the web as a “new media”.
The term “new media” is difficult to define because it encompasses a constantly
growing set of new technologies and skills, specifically, it includes websites, email,
Trang 4/6-Mã đề 001
Internet technology, CD-ROM, DVD, streaming audio and video, interactive
multimedia presentations, e-books, digital music, computer illustration, video games,
virtually reality, and computer artistry.
Additionally, many of today’s Internet careers are becoming paid-by-the-job
professions. With many companies having to downsize
in tough economic items, the
outsourcing and contracting of freelance workers online has become common business
practice. The Internet provides an infinite pool of buyers from around the world with
whom freelancers can contract their services. An added benefit to such online jobs is
that freelancers are able to work on projects with companies outside their own country
of residence.
How much can a person make in these kinds of career? As with many questions
related to todays evolving technology, there is no simple answer. There are many
companies willing to pay people with technical Internet skills salaries well above
$70,000 a year. Generally, webmasters start at about $30,000 per year, but salaries can
vary greatly. Freelance writers working online have been known to make between
$40,000 and $70,000 per year.
Question 42: What is the best title for this passage?

Question 43: According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE of
webmasters?
A. They work either independently or collaboratively.
B. The duties they perform stay almost unchanged.

Question 44: The word “identity” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to___________
A. find out B. pick up on C. come across D. look into
Question 45: The word “them” in paragraph 2 refers to____________.
