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.
Different cultures follow their own special customs when a child's baby teeth fall out. In Korea, for example,
they have the custom of throwing lost teeth up on the roof of a house. According to tradition, a magpie will come and
take the tooth. Later, the magpie will return with a new tooth for the child. In other Asian countries, such as Japan and
Vietnam, children follow a similar tradition of throwing their lost teeth onto the roofs of houses.
Birds aren't the only animals thought to take lost teeth. In Mexico and Spain, tradition says a mouse takes a lost
tooth and leaves some money. However, in Mongolia, dogs are responsible for taking teeth away. Dogs are highly
respected in Mongolian culture and are considered guardian angels of the people.
Tradition says that the new tooth will grow good and strong if the baby tooth is fed to a guardian angel.
Accordingly, parents in Mongolia will put their child's lost tooth in a piece of meat and feed it to a dog.
The idea of giving lost teeth to an angel or fairy is also a tradition in the West. Many children in Western
countries count on the Tooth Fairy to leave money or presents in exchange for a tooth. The exact origins of the Tooth
Fairy are a mystery, although the story probably began in England or Ireland centuries ago. According to tradition, a
child puts a lost tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed. In the wee hours, while the child is sleeping, the
Tooth Fairy takes the tooth and leaves something else under the pillow. In France, the Tooth Fairy leaves a small gift.
In the United States, however, the Tooth Fairy usually leaves money. These days, the rate is 1to1to5 per tooth, adding
up to a lot of money from the Tooth Fairy!

Question 17: According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about the tradition of tooth giving in the
West?
A. Children put their lost teeth under their pillows.
B. Children hope to get money or gifts from the Tooth Fairy.
C. Children give money to the Tooth Fairy.
D. Lost teeth are traditionally given to an angel or fairy.

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.
Question 44: The passage supports which of the following statements?
A. Storytelling is an important part of dance.
B. Dramatic activities require the use of costumes.
C. No one really knows how the theater began.
D. Myths are no longer represented dramatically.
Question 45: The word "they" in line 3 refers to___________.
A. human beings B. seasonal changes
C. natural forces D. theories
Question 46: What aspect of drama does the author discuss in the first paragraph?
A. The reason drama is often unpredictable
B. The reasons in which dramas were performed
C. The importance of costumes in early drama
D. The connection between myths and dramatic plots
Question 47: What does the passage many discuss?
A. The origins of theater B. The role of ritual in modern dance
C. The variety of early religious activities D. The importance of storytelling
Question 48: According to the passage, what is the main difference between ritual and drama?
A. Ritual requires fewer performers than drama.
B. Ritual is shorter than drama.
C. Ritual uses music whereas drama does not
D. Ritual has a religious purpose and drama does not.
Question 49: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a common element of theater and ritual?
A. Magic B. Costumes C. Dance D. Music
Question 50: The word "considerable" in line 11 is closest in meaning to___________.
A. thoughtful B. substantial C. relational D. ceremonial
