Text 2 The contempt of artists for critics is,of course,understandable.To create an artwork is to give the world a kind of gift,and no one likes having a gifi rejected,or even inspected too carefully.In a sense,artists who condemn criticism are relying on the old idea that"it's the thought that counts":Because the intention of the giver is generous and pure,any criticizing about the gift is cruelly small-minded.Yet as anyone who has received an ill-fitting or unsuitable gift knows,the thought is not the only thing that counts.Once a work of art emerges from its creator's study or studio,it becomes the possession of anyone who interacts with it,and therefore it is open to judgment:Do I actually derive pleasure and enlightenment from it?There is no way to evade this question,which is the foundation of all criticism.Every reader or viewer or listener asks it,whether they want to or not.A critic is just a reader or viewer or listener who makes the question explicit and tries to answer it publicly,for the benefit of other potential readers or viewers or listeners.No one gets to be president without wanting to write his or her name in large letters on the American psyche,but most presidents at least gesture in the direction of humility and public service.President Trump,however,has never been anything but straightforward about his egotism.He made his reputation in real estate by splashing his name in gold on almost every structure he built;now he hangs a map of his electoral victory on the White House wall.When the terms of his achievement are so personal,how could criticism fail to strike him as an egoistic injury?There is a danger when we see criticism as nothing but an expression of resentment.For in politics,as in art,the right to criticize is really the right to make an independent judgment of reality.Democracy relies on a citizenry informed and active enough to make such judgments;in a democracy,we are all critics.How to live with criticism is perhaps the hardest lesson that a liberal democracy teaches its citizens.No one really welcomes it,neither the left nor the right."If we are free to loathe Trump,xve are free to loathe his most loyal voters,"wrote Frank Rich in New York magazine in March.But as soon as our critics become our enemies-voices to be silenced and dismissed,rather than listened to-we have left the realm of politics behind 28.It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that President TrumpA.does not wish to write his name in large letters.B.gestures in direction of public services.C.is nevcr a straightforward person.D.should be criticized for his egoistic behavior.

Questions 9~11 refer to the following information.The daily changes of the market can lead investors astray. The ups and downs make the tendency to look at the portfolio’s performance frequently too tempting. This means investors are likely to perceive more risk, forgetting about their long term goals.When investors log into their trading accounts they can see the potential gain or loss of all of their assets. They can also see the day change on assets which are coded gain and loss. However, it's believed that those who look less get more.For instance, if you look at FTSE index from today to tomorrow there is a roughly 50% chance that it has gone up or down. If you look at it over a year you may find that 60%-65% of the time it is going up. And if you look over a five-year period you will find that 90% of the time it goes up.According to the passage, investors tend to________.A. be concerned about immediateB. be misled by the daily changesC. be attracted by risk rather thanD. be worried about the ups and downs of the market

We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes?are about people."Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?When I got that great job,did Jim really feel good about it,as a friend?Or did he envy my luck?"When we look back,doubts?like these can make us feel bad.But when we look back,it′s too late.Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies?Sometimes what people say hides their?real meaning.And if we don′t really listen closely we miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose?someone tells you,"You′re a lucky dog."That′s being friendly.But"lucky dog"?There′s a bit?of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn′t see it himself.But bringing in the"dog"puts you down a?little.What he may be saying is that he doesn′t think you deserve your luck.Just think of all the things you have to be thankful foris another noise that says one thing and?means another.It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole.But is be?Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn′t important.It′s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven′t got a date for Saturday night.How can you tell the real meaning behind someone′s words?One way is to take a good look at?the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks?Does what he says agree with the tone of?voice?His posture?The look in his eyes?Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the?real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.When we listen to a person talking,the most important thing for us to do is to__________.A.notice the way the person is talkingB.take a good look at the person talkingC.mind his tone,his posture and the look in his eyesD.examine the real meaning of what he says based on his manner,his tone and his posture

材料题BThe famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean,so that the audience could see his hero and heroine(男女英雄)in front of it at the end of the film as they said goodbye to each other forever.He sent his camera crew(摄制组)out one evening to film the sunset for him.The next morning he said to the men,“Have you provided me with that sunset ”“No,sir,”the man answered.The director was angry.“Why not ”he asked.“Well,sir,”one of the men answered,“we’re on the east coast here,and the sun sets in the west.We can get you a sunrise over the sea,if necessary,but not a sunset.”“But I want a sunset!”the director shouted.“Go to the airport,take the next flight to the west coast,and get one.”But then a young secretary had an idea.“Why don’t you photograph a sunrise,”she suggested,“and then play it backwards Then it’ll look like a sunset.”“That’s a good idea!”the director said.Then he turned to the camera crew and said,“Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea.”The camera crew went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay(海湾).Then at nine o’clock they took it to the director.“Here it is,sir,”they said,and gave it to him.He was very pleased.They all went into the studio.“All right,”the director explained,“now our hero and heroine are going to say goodbye.Run the film backwards so that we can see the‘sunset’behind them.”The“sunset”began,but after a quarter of minute,the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera to stop.The birds in the film were flying backwards,and the waves on the sea were going away from the beach.Why did the director want to send his crew to the west coast A.Because he changed his mind about getting a sunseB.Because he was angry with his creC.Because it was his secretary’s suggestioD.Because he wanted to get a scene of sunse

问答题In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summery below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the blanks 51-5.Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.  For many years after he formed his Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein visited many universities in different cities where he gave talks about it. He had his own chauffeur who drove him to where he was to give the talk. The chauffeur sat at the back of the room while he was giving his lecture, and then drove him home.  One day, the chauffeur said to Einstein, “Professor, I have heard you give your talk so many times that I know every word of it.” “Do you?” Einstein said with a smile. “Let’s find out, shall we? You give my next talk for me. Nobody knows what I look like where we’re going. I’m just a name to them.” Just before they reached the university where Einstein was to give his talk, he changed places with his chauffeur.  The chauffeur’s memory was excellent and he was able to give Einstein’s talk exactly as Einstein gave it. He did not understand a word he was saying, but this did not seem to matter. Then, as he was leaving the university, one of the teachers who had been at the talk came up to him.  “Professor Einstein,” he said. “That was a most interesting talk. I’d be grateful if you would answer a question.” The chauffeur hurried on. “I’m sorry,” he said, “but I’m late for my next meeting.”  “I’ll walk with you,” the teacher said. “I want to talk to you about the problem.” The teacher walked along beside the chauffeur and asked him to solve a very difficult mathematical problem.  The poor chauffeur couldn’t understand the problem, let alone attempt an answer. He did not know what to say. Then he had an idea. “It’s so simple,” he said. “Even my chauffeur could answer it.”  He pointed to his car, where Einstein was standing, still wearing the chauffeur’s cap.  “This man has a maths question,” he said to Einstein. “It’s so easy I’m sure even you can answer it.”  Summary:  Albert Einstein was a famous scientist who worked out the Theory of Relativity. He used to travel around the country with his chauffeur giving (1) on mathematics. His chauffeur knew his talk very well so Einstein asked him to give the talk at the next (2) where they did not know him. The chauffeur did well, but afterwards a teacher came up to him and asked him a difficult (3) .The chauffeur did not know the answer but he said, “This problem is so simple I’m sure my chauffeur knows (4) it.” Then he pointed to Einstein still standing (5) beside the car.
