Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to eachof the following questions.
While many nineteenthcentury reformers hoped to bring about reform through education or byeliminating specific social evils, some thinkers wanted to start over and remark society by founding ideal,cooperative communities. The United States seemed to them a spacious and unencumbered countrywhere models of a perfect society could succeed. These communitarian thinkers hoped their successwould lead to imitation, until communities free of crime, poverty, and other social ills would cover theland. A number of religious groups, notably the Shakers, practiced communal living, but the mainimpetus to found model communities came from nonreligious, rationalistic thinkers.
Among the communitarian philosophers, three of the most influential were Robert Owen, CharlesFourier, and John Humphrey Noyes. Owen, famous for his humanitarian policies as owner of severalthriving textile mills in Scotland, believed that faulty environment was to blame for human problems andthat these problems could be eliminated in a rationally planned society. In 1825, he put his principles into
practice at New Harmony, Indiana. The community failed economically after a few years but not beforeachieving a number of social successes. Fourier, a commercial employee in France, never visited the
United States. However, his theories of cooperative living influenced many American through thewritings of Albert Brisbane, whose Social Destiny of Man explained Fourierism and its self-sufficientassociations orphalanxes. One or more of these phalanxes was organized in very Northern state. Themost famous were Red Bank, New Jersey, and Brook Farm, Massachusetts. An early member of the latterwas the author Nathaniel Hawthorne. Noyes founded the most enduring and probably the oddest of theutopian communities, the Oneida Community of upstate New York. Needless to say, none of theseexperiments had any lasting effects on the patterns of American society.
Cu 46: The main topic of the passage is..A. American reformers B. nineteen-century schools.C. the philosophy of Fourierism D. model communities in the nineteenth.
Cu 47: Which of the following is not given in the passage as one of the general goals of communitarianphilosophers?

Sharks have gained an unfair reputation for being fierce predators of large sea animals.Humanity's unfounded fear and hatred of these ancient creatures is leading to a worldwideslaughter that may result in the extinction of many coastal shark species. The shark is the victim ofa warped attitude of wildlife protection; we strive only to protect the beautiful, non-threatening
parts of our environment. And, in our efforts to restore only non-threatening parts of our earth, weignore other important parts.
A perfect illustration of this attitude is the contrasting attitude toward another large seaanimal, the dolphin. During the 1980s, environmentalists in the United States protested the use ofdriftnets for tuna fishing in the Pacific Ocean since these nets also caught dolphins. The
environmentalists generated enough political and economic pressure to prevent tuna companiesfrom buying tuna that had been caught in driftnets. In contrast to this effort on behalf of thedolphins, these same environmentalists have done very little to help save the Pacific Ocean sharkswhose population has decreased nearly to the point of extinction. Sharks are among the oldestcreatures on earth, having survived in the seas for more than 350 million years. They areextremely efficient animals, feeding on wounded or dying animals, thus performing an importantrole in nature ofweeding out the weaker animals in a species. Just the fact that species such as theGreat White Shark have managed to live in the oceans for so many millions of years is enoughproofof their efficiency and adaptability to changing environments. It is time for us humans, whomay not survive another 1,000 years at the rate we are damaging the planet, tocast away our fearsand begin considering the protection of sharks as an important part of a program for protection ofall our natural environment.

Sharks have gained an unfair reputation for being fierce predators of large sea animals.Humanity's unfounded fear and hatred of these ancient creatures is leading to a worldwideslaughter that may result in the extinction of many coastal shark species. The shark is the victim ofa warped attitude of wildlife protection; we strive only to protect the beautiful, non-threatening
parts of our environment. And, in our efforts to restore only non-threatening parts of our earth, weignore other important parts.
A perfect illustration of this attitude is the contrasting attitude toward another large seaanimal, the dolphin. During the 1980s, environmentalists in the United States protested the use ofdriftnets for tuna fishing in the Pacific Ocean since these nets also caught dolphins. The
environmentalists generated enough political and economic pressure to prevent tuna companiesfrom buying tuna that had been caught in driftnets. In contrast to this effort on behalf of thedolphins, these same environmentalists have done very little to help save the Pacific Ocean sharkswhose population has decreased nearly to the point of extinction. Sharks are among the oldestcreatures on earth, having survived in the seas for more than 350 million years. They areextremely efficient animals, feeding on wounded or dying animals, thus performing an importantrole in nature ofweeding out the weaker animals in a species. Just the fact that species such as theGreat White Shark have managed to live in the oceans for so many millions of years is enoughproofof their efficiency and adaptability to changing environments. It is time for us humans, whomay not survive another 1,000 years at the rate we are damaging the planet, tocast away our fearsand begin considering the protection of sharks as an important part of a program for protection ofall our natural environment.
