In Ancient Rome, scent was a symbol of status, with emperors reportedly bathing in aromatic waters. Following the decline of Rome, much of this olfactory knowledge was preserved and advanced by Islamic civilizations. Arab and Persian pharmacists pioneered the use of alcohol in distillation, a technique that required significantly fewer raw materials—such as flower petals—compared to the ancient method of soaking flora in warm oil. During the Crusades, this sophisticated chemical knowledge was eventually reintroduced to Europe via monasteries.  \nParagraph 2: [A] Initially, fragrances were inextricably linked to medicine and spirituality. [B] During the Black Death, the bubonic plague was erroneously thought to be spread by ”miasma” or foul air. [C] Consequently, people inhaled pungent spices like cinnamon to ward off disease. [D] This era also fostered a deep-seated fear of water, leading many to use alcohol-based perfumes as cleaning agents rather than bathing.  \nParagraph 3: By the 17th century, France emerged as the epicenter of the trade under Louis XIV, whose protectionist policies encouraged the consumption of luxury goods. At this time, perfumery was the domain of glove-makers. The connection between these two crafts existed because the tanning process for leather involved the use of putrid substances, requiring a heavy application of scent to make the final product wearable. This collaboration eventually birthed powerful guilds that required seven years of apprenticeship, ensuring high standards of quality and secrecy.  \n1  \n1. The word ”pioneered” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to:  \nA. Evaluated C. Simplified  \nB. Introduced D. Rejected  \n2. According to Paragraph 1, how did Islamic pharmacists improve perfume production?  \nA. By discovering new species of flowers in India.  \nB. By utilizing alcohol to make the extraction process more efficient.  \nC. By reviving the Roman tradition of bathing in scent.  \nD. By teaching European monks how to grow aromatic plants.  \n3. The word ”putrid” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to:  \nA. Prestigious C. Decaying  \nB. Fragile D. Rare  \n4. Why does the author mention ”cinnamon” in Paragraph 2?  \nA. To provide an example of a scent used to combat the plague.  \nB. To show that exotic spices were widely available in Europe.  \nC. To explain how the distillation process was first discovered.  \nD. To argue that cinnamon has genuine medicinal properties.  \n5. According to Paragraph 3, why were glove-makers originally the primary producers of perfume?  \nA. They were the only craftsmen with access to the royal court.  \nB. Leather required scenting to mask the unpleasant smells of production.  \nC. They had invented the first glass bottles for liquid storage.  \nD. Perfume was only sold in shops that sold leather clothing.  \n6. What can be inferred from Paragraph 1 about the reintroduction of perfume to Europe?  \nA. It occurred before the fall of the Roman Empire.  \nB. It was facilitated by the exchange of knowledge during the Crusades.  \nC. It was initially resisted by the Church for being too luxurious.  \nD. It led to the immediate end of oil-based perfume techniques.  \n7. Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in Paragraph 3?  \nA.
