Researchers suggest that there are creatures that do not know what light means at the bottom of the sea. They don’t have either eyes or ears; they can only feel. There is no day or night for them. There are no winters, no summers, no sun, no moon, and no stars. It is as if a child spent its life in darkness in bed, with nothing to see or hear. How different our own life is! Sight shows us the ground beneath our feet and the heavens above us – the sun, the moon, and stars, shooting stars, lightning, and the sunset. It shows us day and night. We are able to hear voices, the sound of the sea, and music. We feel, we taste, we smell. How fortunate we are!

Any criminal justice system is an apparatus that society uses to enforce the standards of conduct necessary to protect individuals and the community. It operates by apprehending, prosecuting, convicting, sentencing these members of the community who violate the basic rules of group existence. The action taken against law breakers is designed to serve three purposes beyond the immediately punitive one. It removes dangerous people from the community; it deters others from criminal behavior and it gives society an opportunity to attempt to transform lawbreakers into law -abiding citizens. We understand from the passage that the basic aim of criminal justice is ___________________.<br /> <br /> a. Educate lawbreakers<br /> b. To define socially accepted behavior<br /> c. To renew, as necessary, the traditions and customs of society<br /> d. The protection of society and its individuals<br /> <br /> 45.

The poetic expressiveness and creativity of Japanese women poets of the Manyoshu era is generally regarded as a manifestation of the freedom and relatively high political and economic status women of that era enjoyed. During the Heian Period (A.D. 794 – 1185) which followed, Japanese women became increasingly relegated to domestic roles under the influence of Buddhism and Confucianism, which excluded women from the political and economic arenas. Yet, since poetry of the period came to be defined solely as short lyrical poetry, known as waka, and became the prevailing means of expressing love, women continued to excel in and play a central role in the development of classical Japanese poetry. Moreover, while official Japanese documents were written in Chinese, the phonetic alphabet kana was used for poetry. Also referred to as onna moji (women’s letter), kana was not deemed sufficiently sophisticated for use by Japanese men, who continued to write Chinese poetry, increasingly for expressing religious ideas and as an intellectual pastime. Chinese poetry ultimately yielded, then, to waka as the mainstream of Japanese poetry. Based on the passage, mainstream Japanese poetry of the Heian period can best be described as __________________.<br /> <br /> a. More refined than the poetry of the Manyoshu era<br /> b. Sentimental in nature and lyrical in style<br /> c. Written primarily for a female audience<br /> d. An outgrowth of Buddhism and Confucianism<br /> <br /> 48. (Refer to no. 47) which of the following statements about kana finds the LEAST support in the passage?<br /> a. It was used in Japan after A.D. 793<br /> b. It was considered inappropriate for austere subject matter<br /> c. It was used primarily by Japanese women<br /> d. It was for Japanese poetry but not for Japanese prose<br /> <br /> 49. (refer to no. 47) The author’s primary purpose in the passage is to ______________.<br /> a. Trace the influence of religion on the development of Japanese poetry<br /> b. Refute a common explanation for the role of women in the development of Japanese poetry<br /> c. Provide an explanation for the role of women in the development of Japanese poetry<br /> d. Identify the reasons for the popularity of a distinct form of literary expression in Japan<br /> <br /> 50. The song “No Man is an Island” mirrors:<br /> a. Individualization<br /> b. Solitude<br /> c. Independence<br /> d.
