Question 1

Part A


What inference can be made based on what happens in “The White Umbrella”?



The narrator's mother wants to start working so she can be more independent.


Once they arrive in America, Chinese families adapt easily to the new culture.


The narrator's father has a job that allows him to financially support his family.


In traditional Chines culture, it is considered inappropriate for women to work.

Question 2

Part B


Which two details from the story best support the inference in Part A?



“‘No,’ said my father, in a barely audible voice. ‘Not like the Lee family.’”


“I remembered how sorry my parents had felt for Mrs. Lee when she started waitressing downtown the year before.”


“‘Not that we need the second income.’”


“‘But why shouldn’t I?’ she argued. ‘Lots of people’s mothers work.’"

The inference can be made based on "In Traditional Chines culture, it is considered inappropriate for women to work." Thus, option 4th is correct.

The two details from the story best support the inference, in Part A is “I remembered how sorry my parents had felt for Mrs. Lee when she started waitressing downtown the year before.” Thus, option 2nd is correct.

Gish Jen's "The White Umbrella" depicts the narrative of a little Chinese girl who is determined to conceal the truth since her mother works, which is against her family's custom. The story's thesis is that for some individuals, tradition is more important than extras such as a second salary.

One possible assumption is that the narrator's mother is unconcerned with Chinese culture surrounding women's job. She is determined to work regardless of the circumstances.

"In Traditional Chinese society, it is regarded unsuitable for women to work," the conclusion might be formed. As a result, option 4 is correct.

Part A's two greatest details support the inference: "I recalled how terrible my parents had felt for Mrs. Lee when she started waitressing downtown the year before." As a result, option 2 is correct.

The first step in her downward course was in her ceasing to instruct me. She now commenced to practice her husband's precepts.

Nothing seemed to make her more angry than to see me with a newspaper. She seemed to think that here lay the danger. I have had her rush at me with a face made all up of fury, and snatch from me a newspaper, in a manner that fully revealed her apprehension.

A.Teens Having Trouble Hearing Consonants
B.Hearing Loss Affects Mathew Brady's Life
C.Teens Using Music Devices in Greater Numbers
D.Hearing Loss On the Rise Among Teens

BOSTON, Massachusetts. A recent study revealed that one in five teenagers has at least some hearing loss. The rate of hearing loss among young people has grown significantly since about 1990. Now, experts are urging kids to turn down the volume on their digital music players. These experts suggest that listening to loud music through earbuds may be responsible for the increase.

For the study, researchers compared data from two nationwide health surveys of hearing loss in 12- to 19-year-olds. The first study was done between 1988 and 1994. The second was done between 2005 and 2006. In the first study, about 15 percent of teens were found to have at least some hearing loss. In the more recent study, 19.5 percent of teens had at least some hearing loss. This means that about 6.5 million young people have at least some difficulty hearing.

Most of the hearing loss in the teens was "slight." Researchers defined "slight" as an inability to hear at 16 to 24 decibels. A teen with slight hearing loss might not be able to hear sounds such as leaves rustling or someone whispering. Dr. Gary Curhan was the study's senior author. According to Curhan, people with slight hearing loss can hear vowel sounds clearly. However, they might miss sounds from some consonants, such as t, k, and s. Experts warn that this minor loss of hearing is sufficient to cause problems in school. It also sets the stage for hearing aids later in life.

"Although speech will be detectable, it might not be fully intelligible," Curhan said. Researchers lack final evidence that listening to iPods and other music devices is to blame for hearing loss in teens. However, researchers did note a significant increase in high-frequency hearing loss. This particular type of hearing loss, researchers said, indicates that noise may be to blame. Researchers cited a 2010 Australian study. The study linked the use of personal listening devices with a 70 percent increased risk of hearing loss in young people.

"I think the evidence is out there that prolonged exposure to loud noise is likely to be harmful to hearing, but that doesn't mean kids can't listen to MP3 players," Curhan said. "Our hope is we can encourage people to be careful."

Loud music isn't anything new, of course. Each recent generation of teens has found a new technology to blast music. Teens listened to bulky headphones in the 1960s and used the handheld Sony Walkmans in the 1980s. Today's teens, however, spend more time than ever listening to music. In fact, according to audiologist Brian Fligor, young people spend more than twice as much time listening to music than previous generations.

One of Fligor's patients is 17-year-old Matthew Brady of Foxborough, Massachusetts. Matthew has a mild hearing loss. He has trouble hearing his friends in the school cafeteria. He has admitted to occasionally faking comprehension. Matthew used to listen to an iPod turned up too loud and for too long. Fligor believes this caused Matthew's muffled hearing.

Matthew used to crank up the volume on his favorites—Daughtry, Bon Jovi, and U2—while walking on a treadmill. He did this at least four days a week for 30-minute stretches at a time. One day last summer, he got off the treadmill and couldn't hear anything with his left ear. His hearing gradually returned, but it was never the same.

Matthew's fondness for listening to loud music in not uncommon. During a study of college students, Fligor found that more than half of those tested listened to music at 85 decibels or louder. That's about as loud as a hair dryer or a vacuum cleaner. According to Fligor, regular listening at those levels can turn microscopic hair cells in the inner ear into scar tissue. Fligor believes that some people, such as Matthew, may be more likely to experience damage than others.

These days, Matthew still listens to his digital music player. But now he listens at lower volumes.

"Do not [blast] your iPod," Matthew cautions other teens. "It's only going to hurt your hearing. I learned this the hard way."

To make homemade potato soup, start by sauteing garlic and onions in butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. When the onions are softened, add diced potatoes. Cook for one minute, and then add enough chicken stock to cover the potatoes. When the soup begins to boil, lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it gently simmer until the potatoes are soft. Season with salt and pepper to taste. You can either blend the soup for a smooth consistency or use a potato masher if you’d like a chunkier texture. Add grated cheese and serve!
