The East Asia and Pacific region has seven ( 31)______ the top 10 performing education systems in
the world, with schools in Việt Nam and China showing (32)_______ progress, according to a new
World Bank report released on Thursday.
Up to 40 per cent of them attend schools in (33)________ systems whose students are ahead of the
average students in OECD (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development) countries.
These schools are not only in wealthy countries such as Singapore, Korea and Japan (34)________
also in middle-income countries such as China and Việt Nam, according to the report. As the report
highlights, students’ performance is not necessarily tied to a country’s income level. By age 10, for
example, the average Vietnamese student outperforms all but the top students in India, Peru and
Ethiopia.
(35)____________ key finding of the report is that across the region, household incomes do not
necessarily determine children’s educational success. In Việt Nam and China, for example, students
from poorer households do as well, if not better, in both math and science, as average students in
OECD countries.

of the
questions from
36 to 42.
The Winterthur Museum is a collection and a house. There are many museums devoted to the
decorative arts and many house museums, but rarely in the United States is a great collection
displayed in a great country house. Passing through successive generations of a single family,
Winterthur has been a private estate for more than a century. Even after the extensive renovations
made to it between 1929 and 1931, the house remained a family residence. This fact is of importance
to the atmosphere and effect of the museum. The impression of a lived-in house is apparent to the
visitor; the rooms look as if they were vacated only a short while ago ― whether by the original
owners of the furniture of the most recent residents of the house can be a matter of personal
interpretation. Winterthur remains, then, a house in which a collection of furniture and architectural
elements has been assembled. Like an English country house, it is an organic structure; the house, as
well as the collection and manner of displaying it to the visitor, has changed over the years. The
changes have coincided with developing concepts of the American arts, increased knowledge on the
part of collectors and students, and a progression toward the achievement of a historical effect in
period-room displays. The rooms at Winterthur have followed this current, yet still retained the
character of a private house.

The concept of a period room as a display technique has developed gradually over the years in
an effort to present works of art in a context that would show them to greater effect and would give
them more meaning for the viewer. Comparable to the habitat group in a natural history museum, the
period room represents the decorative arts in a lively and interesting manner and provides an
opportunity to assemble objects related by style, date, or place of manufacture.
