 Trang 3/8 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 from 29 to 36.
 During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, almost nothing was written about 
the contributions of women during the colonial period and the early history of the newly 
formed United States. Lacking the right to vote and absent from the seats of power, 
women were not considered an important force in history. Anne Bradstreet wrote some 
significant poetry in the seventeenth century, Mercy Otis Warren produced the best 
contemporary history of the American Revolution, and Abigail Adams penned important 
letters showing she exercised great political influence over her husband, John, the second 
President of the United States. But little or no notice was taken of these contributions. 
During these centuries, women remained invisible in history books.
 Throughout the nineteenth century, this lack of visibility continued, despite the 
efforts of female authors writing about women. These writers, like most of their male 
counterparts, were amateur historians. Their writings were celebratory in nature, and they 
were uncritical in their selection and use of sources.
 During the nineteenth century, however, certain feminists showed a keen sense of 
history by keeping records of activities in which women were engaged. National, regional, 
and local women’s organizations compiled accounts of their doings. Personal 
correspondence, newspaper clippings, and souvenirs were saved and stored. These sources 
from the core of the two greatest collections of women’s history in the United States one at 
the Elizabeth and Arthur Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe College, and the other the Sophia 
Smith Collection at Smith College. Such sources have provided valuable materials for later 
Generations of historians.
 Despite the gathering of more information about ordinary women during the 
nineteenth Century, most of the writing about women conformed to the “great women” 
theory of History, just as much of mainstream American history concentrated on “great 
men.” To demonstrate that women were making significant contributions to American life, 
female authors singled out women leaders and wrote biographies, or else important women 
produced their autobiographies. Most of these leaders were involved in public life as 
reformers, activists working for women’s right to vote, or authors, and were not 
representative at all of the great of ordinary woman. The lives of ordinary people 
continued, generally, to be untold in the American histories being published.
Question 29: What does the passage mainly discuss?

 D. poetry produced by women was more readily accepted than other writing by 
women

 C. The sources of the information they were based on were not necessarily accurate.

 Taj Mahal, a mausoleum in Agra, India, regarded as one of the most beautiful 
buildings in the world. The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan had it built in memory of his wife, 
Arjumand Banu Bagam, known as Mumtaz Mahal (Persian for "Elect of the Palace"), who 
died in 1631. 
 Building commenced about 1632. The mausoleum was complete by about 1643 and 
the surrounding complex of buildings and gardens was complete by about 1653. Situated 
on the southern bank of the Yamuna River, the white marble mausoleum is composed of 
four identical facades, each containing a large central arch 33 m (108 ft) high. A large bulb-
shaped dome, over 73 m (240 ft) tall, rises over the center, with four smaller domes 
surrounding it. The building is raised on a square podium with a minaret at each corner. It 
is flanked by two red sandstone buildings-a mosque and its replica, the Jawab (Answer), a 
building of which the main function is visual balance. Visitors approach the Taj Mahal 
through an imposing red sandstone gate, decorated with inscriptions from the Muslim holy 
book, the Qur'an (Koran). The gate and accompanying walls also contain a vast, 
geometrically laid out garden, 305 m (1,002 ft) on each side. The enclosed garden, itself a 
Muslim symbol of paradise, is centered on a large, raised pool. Canals divide it into four 
equal parts, each containing flower beds, fountains, and cypress trees (symbols of death).
 Inside the Taj Mahal, the tomb of Mumtaz Mahal stands at the center of an 
octagonal hall, while the slightly larger tomb of Shah Jahan, who died in 1666, is off to one 
side. Both are elaborately carved and inlaid with semiprecious stones, illuminated by

jewels.
