Within four thousand years of its introduction, agriculture had dramatically transformed the face of the earth. Human beings multiplied prodigiously, congregated in densely populated quarters, placed the surrounding lands under cultivation, and domesticated several species of animals...like the transition from foraging to agricultural societies, the development of cities and complex societies organized around urban centers was a gradual process rather than a well-defined event. Because of favorable location, some Neolithic villages and towns attracted more people and grew larger than others. Over time, some of those settlements evolved into cities.

5 The earliest written documents are Sumerian wage lists and tax receipts, in which the symbol for beer, a clay vessel with diagonal linear markings drawn inside it, is one of the most common words, along with the symbols for grain, textiles, and livestock. That is because writing was originally invented to record the collection and distribution of grain, beer, bread, and other goods. It arose as a natural extension of the Neolithic custom of using tokens to account for contributions to a communal storehouse. Indeed, Sumerian society was a logical continuation of Neolithic social structures but on a far larger scale, the culmination of thousand of years of increasing economic and cultural complexity. Just as the chieftain of a Neolithic village collected surplus food, the priests of the Sumerian cities collected surplus barley, wheat, sheep, and textiles. Officially, these goods were offerings to the gods, but in practice they were compulsory taxes that were consumed by the temple bureaucracy or traded for other goods and services. The priests could, for example, pay for the maintenance of irrigation systems and the construction of public buildings by handing out rations of bread and beer. Tom Standage, A History of the World in 6 Glasses, Which conclusion is best supported by the passage above? a. Religious authorities wielded great control over the Sumerian economy. c. Compulsory taxation allowed Sumerians to conquer neighboring areas. b. People first developed writing to record important religious ideas. d. Sumerians established trade routes, which spread their goods to other civilizations. 16. Compared to the development of the Sumerian civilization as described in the passage above, the Chavin civilization (located in modern-day Peru) a. was more self-sufficient so it carried on little trade. c. required much less irrigation in order to carry on farming. b. had a much weaker political system. d. had much less interest in organized religion. The manner of life in such a State is that of democrats; there is freedom and plainness of speech, and every man does what is right in his own eyes, and has his own way of life. Hence arise the most various developments of character; the State is like a piece of embroidery of which the colors and figures are the manners of men, and there are many who, like women and children, prefer this variety to real beauty and excellence. The State is not one but many, like a bazaar at which you can buy anything. The great charm is, that you may do as you like; you may govern if you like, let it alone if you like; go to war and make peace if you feel disposed, and all quite irrespective of anybody else. When you condemn men to death they remain alive all the same; a gentleman is desired to go into exile, and he stalks about the streets like a hero; and nobody sees him or cares for him. Observe, too, how grandly Democracy sets her foot upon all our fine theories of education - how little she cares for the training of her statesmen! The only qualification which she demands is the profession of patriotism. Such is democracy; - a pleasing, lawless, various sort of government, distributing equality to equals and unequals alike. Socrates, as reported by Plato in The Republic, c. 380 B.C.E. 17. Socrates is most critical of the Athenian government because he things it a. is too willing to condemn people to death c. fails to treat all people equally b. expects all people to be just alike d. suffers from too much individualism 5

6 18. Why was the system described by Socrates not a true democracy? a. The system was patriarchal, allowing only free males to participate in the democracy. b. While upper-class women could vote on issues affecting Athens, lower-class women were prohibited from voting. c. Slave men were allowed to vote, but their vote only counted half as much as that of a free-born male. d. Voting rights were only extended to educated men and women. 19. Which type of government would Socrates have most likely supported? a. a military dictatorship like that of Sparta c. a monarchy ruled by an educated and rational philosopher-king b. a representative democracy like the one established by Pericles d. a direct democracy like the one established by Athens during the forth and fifth centuries B.C.E. Then Cyrus (Emperor of the Persian Empire from 559 to 530 B.C.E.)...appointed various overseers: he had receivers of revenue, controllers of finance, ministers of works, guardians of property, superintendents of the household...but when it came to those who were to be his fellow-guardians for the commonwealth, he would not leave the care and the training of these to others; he regarded that as his own personal task. He knew, if he were ever to fight a battle, he would have to choose his comrades and supporters, the men on his right hand and left, from these and these alone; it was from them he must appoint his officers for horse and foot. If he had to send out a general alone it would be from them that one must be sent: he must depend on them for satraps and governors over cities and nations; he would require them for ambassadors, and an embassy was, he knew, the best means for obtaining what he wanted without war. Xenophon, Greek historian, Cyropaedia: The Education of Cyrus, c. 370 B.C.E. 20. The passage above provides evidence that the Persian Empire under Cyrus, and later, Darius a. had a highly centralized and elaborate bureaucracy c. relied on men who were chosen by the Empire s assembly of ministers to conduct diplomatic negotiations or to b. used diplomacy as the main method of expanding the territory of the Empire lead the Empire s army into battle d. refused to collect taxes or build public works projects. 21.

Greeks who served the emperor 22. The controllers of finance would most likely be associated with a. forcing people to accept Zoroastrianism c. developing profitable trade routes as the state religion b. establishing a common currency within the Empire d. engineering roads and other public works projects 6

10 Of all the religions that established themselves in the Roman Empire...none succeeded on such a large scale or over such a long time as Christianity.... During the first three centuries, Christianity developed under a serious political handicap. The earliest Christians were associated with parties of rebellious Jews who resisted Roman administration in Palestine. Later Christians, even gentiles, refused to honor the Roman emperor and state in the fashion deemed appropriate by imperial authorities. As a result, Christians endured not only social contempt and scorn but also organized campaigns of persecution. Meanwhile, the Roman state generously patronized many of the empire s pagan cults: in exchange for public honor and recognition, the emperors and other important political figures provided financial sponsorship for rituals, festivals, and other pagan activities.

I am not satisfied simply with hard work or carrying out the affairs of state, for I consider my work to be the welfare of the whole world...there is no better deed than to work for the welfare of the whole world, and all my efforts are made that I may clear my debt to all beings. I make them happy here and now that they may attain heaven in the life to come...but it is difficult without great effort. Edicts of King Ashoka 268 B.C.E B.C.E. 33.

A modern-day statue of King Ashoka in the city of Athens c. similarities between the ethical beliefs taught in Buddhism and by Aristotle b. the ruins of a Buddhist stupa found outside of Cairo d. Chinese armor and weapons found among the graves of Spartan soldiers. Following the laws of nature; utilizing the earth to best advantage according to the various qualities of the soil; restricting one s personal desires and enjoyment in order to support one s parents - this is the filiality of the common people. So it is that, from the Son of Heaven [the Emperor] to the commoners, if filial piety is not pursued from beginning to end, disasters are sure to follow. The relation between father and son is rooted in nature and develops into the proper relation between prince and ministers... Therefore, to love others without first loving one s parents is to act against virtue...in this there is no goodness; it is all evil. Although such a person may gain position, men of learning and virtue will not esteem him. The practice of a virtuous man is different: his speech is praiseworthy; his actions are enjoyable; his righteousness is respected; his management of affairs is [worthy of imitation]...he descends to his people; therefore, they look on him with awe and love; they imitate and seek to resemble him. Thus, he realizes his own virtuous man, the princely one, has nothing wrong in his deportment [the way a person behaves]. Confucius, c.551 B.C.E B.C.E. 36. Which describes the duty of common people in Confucianism? a. to farm, to take care of their parents, and to respect the emperor c. to become individuals of learning and virtue b. to demand that the emperor take care of their parents d. to strive to improve their wealth and social status. 37. Which was the duty of the emperor according to Confucian philosophy? a. to enact laws that required the common c. to expand the size of the country and to people to act virtuously b. to act virtuously in order to act as an example for his subjects increase its power d. to live as a peasant briefly in order to understand their conditions 38. Confucianism helped to bring about social and political order in China by a. emphasizing filial piety, a concept that shaped social relationships and encouraged obedience to the state unit in importance b. creating harsh laws and punishments that discouraged people from disobeying the state c. encouraging the development of a military state that replaced the family d. elevating the status of merchants, thus creating general prosperity in China based on trade. 11

12 In the nine markets [in Chang an] they set up bazaars, Their wares separated by type, their shop rows distinctly divided. There was no room for people to turn their heads, Or for chariots to wheel about. People crammed into the city, spilled into the suburbs, Everywhere streaming into the hundreds of shops.

15 Our constitution does not copy the laws of neighboring states; we are rather a pattern to others than imitators ourselves. Its administration favors the many instead of the few; this is why it is called a democracy. If we look to the laws, they afford equal justice to all in their private differences; if no social standing, advancement in public life falls to reputation for capacity, class considerations not being allowed to interfere with merit; nor again does poverty bar the way, if a man is able to serve the state, he is not hindered by the obscurity of his condition. The freedom which we enjoy in our government extends also to our ordinary life. There, far from exercising a jealous surveillance over each other, we do not feel called upon to be angry with our neighbor for doing what he likes, or even to indulge in those injurious looks which cannot fail to be offensive, although they inflict no safeguard, teaching us to obey the magistrates and the laws, particular such as regard the protection of the injured, whether they are actually on the statute book, or belong to that code which, although unwritten, yet cannot be broken without acknowledged disgrace. Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War, c. 415 B.C.E. 47. According to the passage, which of the following is a characteristic of classical Greek democracy? a.

All adult men who were citizens of the state by birth b. All adult men and women born within the geographic boundaries of the state d. All adult men and women who were citizens of the state by birth 49.

The geography of Greece contains many natural resources that facilitated a profitable mining industry. c. The geography of Greece contains prominent river valleys that facilitated widespread agriculture. b. The geography of Greece contains numerous freshwater lakes that facilitated a successful fishing industry. d. The geography of Greece contains many natural harbors that facilitated trade and commerce. 15
