Use the passage and your knowledge of social studies to answer the following question.
Elizabeth I (r. 1558­1603)
Queen Elizabeth I was born on September 7, 1533, the daughter of King Henry VIII and his second
wife, Anne Boleyn. She was the last monarch of the Tudor family. Her early life was full of dangers
and controversies, and her chances of becoming queen seemed very remote once her half­brother
Edward was born in 1537. She also had a sister, Mary, who was sixteen years older. Therefore,
she was third in line. Roman Catholics never considered her a legitimate heir since she was
regarded as a Protestant. She narrowly escaped execution after a failed rebellion against her
sister, Mary, who had become queen in 1554. She was imprisoned and later freed after nobles
proclaimed her innocence in the plot.
Elizabeth took the throne on her half­sister's death in November 1558. She was very well­
educated and demonstrated a particular determination and cleverness in dealing with problems.
Her reign lasted forty­five years and is generally considered one of the most glorious in English
history. She was able to establish and maintain the Protestant Church of England.
Elizabeth sponsored many explorations in the name of England including those of Francis Drake and
Walter Raleigh, particularly to the Americas. These expeditions propelled England into an age of
colonization and trade. Likewise, the arts flourished during Elizabeth's reign. She attended the first
performance of Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream." Composers such as William Byrd and
Thomas Tallis worked in Elizabeth's Court. Wearing expensive clothes and jewelry, she toured the
country, riding on horseback rather than in a carriage. She was known as "Good Queen Bess."
Elizabeth's reign, however, was one of considerable danger with a constant fear of invasions and
wars from Spain, Ireland, France, and Scotland. Much of northern England was in rebellion in 1569­
70. She passed harsh laws against Roman Catholics after religiously­motivated plots against her
life were discovered.
In 1588, the English navy scored a great victory over the Spanish Armada. The Armada was sent
to overthrow the Queen and re­establish the Roman Catholic Church in England and to place
Spain's King Philip II on the English throne.
During Elizabeth's long reign, the nation also suffered from high prices and severe economic
depression. The war against Spain was very costly, but overall, Elizabeth is remembered as a very
smart and decisive leader who brought great successes to England during her reign.
Many nobles from other countries desired to marry Elizabeth and become political allies with
England. She chose not to marry, which enabled good relations with many of the European
monarchs. Her English subjects viewed her as a selfless woman who sacrificed personal happiness
for her country. She died on March 24, 1603.

Use the passage and your knowledge of social studies to answer the following question. Mayan Culture
The Maya civilization shares many features with other Mesoamerican civilizations due to
the high degree of interaction and cultural diffusion that characterized the region. While
advances such as writing, stone­carving, and the calendar did not originate with the Maya,
their civilization fully developed them. Mayan influence can be detected in Honduras,
Guatemala, northern El Salvador, and as far as Central Mexico, more than 600 miles from
Mayan settlements. Many outside influences are found in Mayan art and architecture,
which are thought to result from trade and cultural exchange rather than by direct
conquest.
12
Which of the following reasons does NOT support the argument that the Mayans interacted
with other surrounding cultures of their time?
F
Mayan culture was very isolationist.
G
Artwork and architecture was often similar in different parts of the continent. H
Innovations were adopted and improved upon.
J
Groups from other cultures adopted Mayan traits.
Use the passage and your knowledge of social studies to answer the following question.
History of the Columbian Exchange
The Columbian Exchange greatly affected almost every society on Earth. New diseases
introduced by Europeans devastated the populations of many American cultures because the
indigenous peoples had no immunity. Data for the pre­Columbian population in the Americas is
uncertain, but some estimates suggest 50 to 90 percent of native populations were lost due to
disease.
The contact between the two cultures introduced many new crops and livestock which, in
turn, caused increases in population in both hemispheres. European explorers returned home with
vegetables such as tomatoes, potatoes and, corn which flourished in Europe into the 18th
century. These same European explorers were responsible for the introduction of manioc and
peanuts to Asia and West Africa. As in Europe and the Americas population also increased in these
areas as soils which had not previously supported high yield agriculture became better producers.
13
Which statement best summarizes the information in the passage?
A The Columbian Exchange benefited natives more than other populations.
B
The Columbian Exchange began with the African slave trade.
C
The Columbian Exchange had both positive and negative effects.
D The Columbian Exchange mainly benefited natives with new grains.

Use the passage and your knowledge of social studies to answer the following questions.
Global Trade During the Ming Dynasty of China
Prior to the 1400s, Chinese overseas trade consisted mainly of private merchants and small
diplomatic missions. In 1405, leaders of the Ming Dynasty initiated construction of thousands of
ocean­going ships for official trading voyages. One of seven official trading expeditions was under
the Ming Dynasty's Admiral Zheng He. Admiral Zheng He's expedition surpassed all others in size,
with over 300 ships. These overseas expeditions brought great wealth from all over the Indian
Ocean. Zheng He's fleet visited Arabia, Africa, India, and Southeast Asia bringing back gold as well
as zebras, camels, and other novelties. Along with wealth came knowledge of other cultures. The
missions soon ended in 1433. Ming leaders feared foreign cultures would corrupt Chinese culture.
Additionally, the expense of maintaining the fleet was too high. Some ships were burned, while
many others were left to rot in harbors.
20

F
While Ming Dynasty voyages were limited, they brought great wealth to China.
G

Use the passage and your knowledge of social studies to answer the following question.
The Style of Raphael
Raphael was heavily influenced by the works of the early Renaissance painters. He attended the
workshop of Perugino, whose graceful, open landscapes and gentle figures were widely admired. A
skillful student from the beginning, Raphael mastered Perugino's delicate, ornamental style. Late in
1504, Raphael moved to Florence, where he incorporated the innovations of Florentine painters,
especially those of Leonardo da Vinci. Raphael transformed the fifteenth­century style of his
earliest teachers into something new and influential. For later generations, Raphael's art came to
represent an ideal of perfection, grace, and harmonious balance. His works are still admired and
studied throughout the world today.
25
Which of the following best summarizes the passage?
A Raphael was considered the greatest of the Renaissance painters and better than Leonardo
da Vinci.
B
Raphael was a brilliant painter who quickly began teaching his teachers more than they were
teaching him.
C
Raphael was one of Leonardo da Vinci's best students, and he greatly influenced other
Italian painters.
D Raphael was a master Renaissance painter, and his work crossed beyond the time and
culture in which he lived.

The first three all show examples of balance in the elements of art including line, color, shape and texture. The last painting
glorifies texture in brush strokes and color over other elements. Also, the first three reflect the emphasis on humanism
through the many portraits of the era while the last come from the later period where landscapes and other views are more
important. The emphasis on the human is tempered with suggestion of the Madonna – a religious influence in the art.
