Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

For many years, T-shirts were simple short-sleeved undershirts for men and boys. T-shirts used to be of one color — white. And since they were worn under shirts, they were generally not seen.

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:

Stanley Fields, the man who wrote "Sad, Sad Cowboy", which won this year's Philip's Award as the best song of the year, might have had a very different career if his parents had had their way.

In a private interview, Fields said, “When I was a kid, my father always told me I should put down my guitar and do my homework. He wanted me to go to college and become a teacher as he and his brother were.”

Fields explained that he made a great effort to please his father, but often the urge became too great and he would quietly go off to a farm behind his house and play his guitar and make up songs.

“I made i t to Stanton College,” he laughed, “but I majored in accounting instead of teaching. And to pay my own way, I played the guitar and sang at a local nightclub.”

While Fields was still in his senior year, an executive of a record company came into the club as he was singing one of his own songs. The executive liked what he heard and signed the young man to a contract.

Since graduating from Stanton College in 1973, Fields has devoted his full time to composing and singing. "My Heartache", a song he wrote while in college, reached number seventeen in the top twenty song hits of 1974 and in 1977 his song, “Rambling”, was the theme

song for the movie of the same name.
