Q 27. What do you learn about Ellen Terry in the first paragraph?
Part of the passage:
 
But she didn’t achieve this devotion through her acting ability alone. 
She knew 
the power of presentation and carefully cultivated her image
. That first night 
was no exception. When she walked on stage for the famous banqueting scene, her ap-
pearance drew a collective gasp from the audience.
Answer: 
C She tried hard to look good on stage.
Q 28.  
What is the writer’s purpose in paragraph 2?
Part of the passage:
 
She was dressed in the most extraordinary clothes ever to have 
graced a British stage: a long, emerald and sea-green gown with tapering sleeves, sur-
mounted by a velvet cloak, which glistened and sparkled eerily in the limelight. Yet this 
was no mere stage trickery. The effect had been achieved using hundreds of wings from 
beetles. 
The gown – later named the ‘Beetlewing dress’ – became one of the most iconic 
and celebrated costumes of the age
