The 16th century in England is generally known as the Tudor period, which historically lasted from 1485 to 1603. Among the famous Tudor sovereigns were Henry VII, Henry VIII, and Elizabeth I. In fact, the early years of the Tudor period were marked by significant changes in trade and in the arts of war. Henry VII made commercial treaties with European countries. Economically, England, which had always been a sheep-raising country, was by now manufacturing and exporting significant amounts of
cloth. As lands were enclosed to permit grazing on a larger scale, people were driven off the land to the cities, and London grew into a metropolitan market with sophisticated commercial institutions. These changes had an impact on the traditional feudal social order, which also began to decline; also, due to the introduction of cannons and firearms, the feudal system of warfare became obsolete. Yet, it would be a mistake to imagine these changes as sudden and dramatic. In fact, it was a slow and long process whereby England was transformed into a modern state.
It is clear from the passage that, due to developments in cloth-making in Tudor England,----.
A) most farming lands were turned into grazing
fields for the sheep
B) English merchants began to look for new markets in order to export more goods
C) rural people gave up farming and migrated to London in search of employment
D) the economic prosperity of the people increased enormously
E) many cities, including London, competed with each other for economic prosperity

The causes of World War II were rooted in the peace
settlement at Versailles in 1919-1920. The peace had
created as many problems as it had solved. The
senior Allied heads of state yielded to demands that
involved annexing German territory and creating new
states out of the eastern European empires. In doing
so, the peacemakers created fresh bitterness and
conflict. The Versailles treaty and its champions,
such as US President Woodrow Wilson, proclaimed
the principle of self-determination for the peoples of
eastern and southern Europe. Yet the new states
created by the treaty crossed ethnic boundaries,
involved political compromises, and frustrated many
of the expectations they had raised. The unsteady
new boundaries would be redrawn by force in the
1930s. The Allied powers also kept up the naval
blockade against Germany after the end of World
War I. This forced the new German government to
accept harsh terms that deprived Germany of its
political power in Europe. The blockade and its
consequences created grievances that made the
German people feel angry and completely humiliated.
It is argued in the passage that the Versailles
treaty, signed after World War I, ----.
A) went into effect soon after the Allied naval
blockade against Germany had been lifted
B) did not take into consideration Woodrow
Wilson’s principle of self-determination
C) enabled Germany to regain its territories in
eastern Europe and become militarily strong
again
D) was a total failure, since it ultimately led to World
War II
E) was accepted with great jubilation by the German government and people
