Arthur Dove 
Arthur Dove was an abstract nature painter whose work was radically different and underappreciated in the 
American art scene. 
[1] In fact, Dove was the first American artist to paint in an entirely abstract manner. [2] He painted a set 
of six abstract works around 1910, prior to the European artist Wassily Kandinsky‟s famous abstract 
compositions. [3] Kandinsky‟s abstract work, however, complemented the cultural context in Europe, and 
was therefore appreciated. Dove‟s work had no similar cultural context in America. [4] 
Overall, Dove's abstract paintings did nothing to change Amercican art. His work was not once but twice 
orphaned: by the general indifference of the Amercican public, and by his own reclusive nature. 
Nevertheless, Dove's abstract paintings remain interesting compositions on nature.

Television 
An American TV network has had an international hit with the drama "24”. a thriller known for its 
suspense and often graphic violence. Over the past year, controversy has surrounded the series because of its 
portrayal of Muslim terrorists and its frequent scenes of torture. But the content of “24” is not the only thing 
that would have been unthinkable on prime−time television 20 years ago. Its form also represents a major 
change in modem TV: during each episode‟s 44 minutes − a real−time hour, minus 16 minutes for

commercials – the show connects the lives of 21 different characters, each with their own personalities and 
specific relationships with other characters. Nine different story lines (or “threads") arc depicted, each 
involving events and information revealed in previous episodes. [ I ] 
[2] For years many people have assumed that popular culture is in a state of decline rapidly degenerating into 
“junk culture" with no worthwhile purpose. But an interesting new book challenges that assumption. 
“Everything Bad is Good for You: How Today‟s Popular Culture Is Actually Making Us Smarter," by 
Steven Johnson, makes a persuasive argument that today‟s complex TV dramas and other pop culture 
Products gives healthy mental exercise. He calls the use or complex, interwoven plot lines involving multiple 
characters “multi−threading”, and it is a new and growing phenomenon in TV To keep up with shows like 
“24", he points out, you must “pay attention, make inferences, track shifting social relationships", and these 
cognitive challenges are changịng our mental development for the better. [3] 
[4] The most obvious change in the last five years of narrative entertainment is the rise of reality TV, 
Surely, you might be thinking, watching “Survivor" or “The Bachelor” cannot possibly raise anyone's IQ 
“Survivor” is now in its tenth season, and “The Bachelor” is in its seventh. But as Johnson tells us lately 
“even the junk has improved”. The new reality shows are like games: they arc series of competitive tests, 
each more challenging than the last, and with rules that must be learned as you play. On “Survivor" for 
instance, the participants and the audience know the general objective of the game but each episode brings 
new challenges that require quick thinking. Success in these games calls for the intellectual labor of finding 
the weak spots in the rules and in your opponents. This labor is done not just by the stars of the shows but 
the viewers at home as well. This is what makes these shows such fun to watch − the human mind enjoys 
being challenged. As Johnson writes, “There‟s real pleasure ... in solving puzzles, detectingpatterns or 
understanding a complex narrative system." 
Question 55: What is the topic of the passage? 
A. The decline of TV today B. Benefits of TV today 
C. TV and culture D. Why “24” became a 
hit Question 56: Which is the best place for the following sentence? 
“It is not only hour−long dramas that make us smarter." 
 A. [l] B. [2] C. [3] D. [4] 
Question 57: The word “each” in paragraph I refers to ____. . 
 A. story lines B. characters C. episodes D.personalities

B. show how TV has become more complex 
C. explain why many TV shows nowadays are controversial 
D. argue against ỈIS graphic violence and portrayal of terrorists Question 59: It can be inferred that 
the author of the passage 
A. agrees with Steven Johnson‟s views 
B. strongly disagrees with Steven Johnson's views 
C. has no opinion about Steven Johnson‟s views 
D. agrees with some of Johnson‟s views but disagrees with others
