each of the questions .
Sometimes you know things about people the first time you see them, for example, that you want to be
friends with them or that you don’t trust them. But perhaps this kind of intuition isn’t as hard to explain as it
may seem. For instance, people give out their body language signals all the time. The way you hold your body,
head and arms tells people about your mood. If you hold your arms tightly at your sides, or fold them across
your chest, people will generally feel that you are being defensive. Holding your head to one side shows interest
in the other, while an easy, open posture indicates that you are self- confident. All this affects the way you feel
about someone.
Also, a stranger may remind you of a meeting with someone. This may be because of something as simple
as the fact that he or she is physically similar to someone who treated you well or badly. Your feelings about a
stranger could be influenced by a smell in the air that brings to mind a place where you were happy as a child.
Since even a single word can bring back a memory such as that, you may never realize it is happening.

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.
The Arts and Crafts Movement in the United States was responsible for sweeping changes in attitudes
toward the decorative arts, then considered the minor or household arts. Its focus on decorative arts helped to
induce United States museums and private collectors to begin collecting furniture, glass, ceramics, metalwork,
and textiles in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The fact that artisans, who were looked on as
mechanics or skilled workers in the eighteenth century, are frequently considered artists today is directly
attributable to the Arts and Crafts Movement of the nineteenth century. The importance now placed on
attractive and harmonious home decoration can also be traced to this period, when Victorian interior
arrangements were revised to admit greater light and more freely flowing spaces.
The Arts and Crafts Movement reacts against mechanized processes that threatened handcrafts and
resulted in cheapened, monotonous merchandise. Founded in the late nineteenth century by British social critics
John Ruskin and William Morris, the movement revered craft as a form of art. In a rapidly industrializing
society, most Victorians agreed that art was an essential moral ingredient in the home environment, and in many
middle- and working-class homes craft was the only form of art. Ruskin and his followers criticized not only the
degradation of artisans reduced to machine operators, but also the impending loss of daily contact with
handcrafted objects, fashioned with pride, integrity, and attention to beauty.
In the United States as well as in Great Britain, reformers extolled the virtues of handcrafted objects:
simple, straightforward design; solid materials of good quality; and sound, enduring construction techniques.
These criteria were interpreted in a variety of styles, ranging from rational and geometric to romantic or
naturalistic. Whether abstract, stylized, or realistically treated, the consistent theme in virtually all Arts and
Crafts design is nature.
The Arts and Crafts Movement was much more than a particular style; it was a philosophy of domestic
life. Proponents believed that if simple design, high-quality materials, and honest construction were realized in
the home and its appointments, then the occupants would enjoy moral and therapeutic effects. For both artisan
