The invention of the electric telegraph gave birth to the communications industry. Although Samuel B. Morse succeeded in making the invention useful in 1837, it was not until 1843 that the first telegraph line of consequence was constructed. By 1860 more than 50,000 miles of lines connected people east of the Rockies. The following year, San Francisco was added to the network.
The national telegraph network fortified the ties between East and West and contributed to the rapid expansion of the railroads by providing an efficient means to monitor schedules and routes. Furthermore, the extension of the telegraph, combined with the invention of the steam-driven rotary printing press by Richard M. Hoe in 1846, revolutionized the world of journalism. Where the business of news gathering had been dependent upon the mail and on hand-operated presses, the telegraph expanded the amount of information a newspaper could supply and allowed for more timely reporting. The establishment of the Associated Press as a central wire service in 1846 marked the advent of a new era in journalism.

During the 1920s, African-American culture as embodied in music, art, and literature flourished as never before. In their works, poets, dramatists, and novelists sought to define their culture and engender pride in racial heritage. The outpouring of African-American literature during the 1920s almost came to a standstill during the Great Depression of the 1930s but reemerged with explosive force in the 1940s with Richard Wright’s Native Son, Chester Himes’s Lovely Crusade, and Ann Petry’s The Street, among other novels, as well as the plays and poetry of Langston Hughes. In the 1950s important developments in drama took place with a generation of black playwrights, including Alice Childress, Ted Shine, William Branch, and Lorraine Hansberry, who wrote the prizewinning drama A Raisin in the Sun.
The 1960s gave rise to the Black arts movement. Drama and fiction flourished, often written in the rhythm and language of black working classes. The 1970s and 1980s continued that tradition but also saw the works of black women poets, essayists, dramatists, and fiction writers take the spotlight, making a significant contribution to literature by exploring the themes of black women’s experiences. Fiction writers Toni Morrison and Alice Walker, both Pulitzer Prize winners, are two of the finest American writers of this century. Other notable black women writers of other genres, impressive in talent and number, have come into their own, making their voices heard within a literary tradition from which they were excluded for many generations and making African-American literature richer than ever before.
Câu 8: The author of this passage would most likely be
A. a politician B. a member of the clergy C. an educator D. a scientist
Câu 9: The author’s attitude toward African-American women writers is
A. disappointed B. supportive C. neutral D. negative
Câu 10: The author’s main purpose in writing this passage is to
A. present a history of African- American literature
B. argue the importance of the Black Arts movement
C. emphasize the achievements of African-American artists
D. explain the difference between male and female African –American authors
Câu 11: The paragraph preceding this passage would mostly be about
A. early African- American culture B. life during the Great Depression
C. the Black Arts movement of the 1960s D. the future of African-America literature
Câu 12: Which of the following conclusions could be drawn from this passage?
A. There were no black playwrights before the 1950s
B. The Great Depression was a period that fostered creativity
C. The sixties were not good years for African-American writers
