The values of artistic works, according to cultural relativism(相對主義), are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.

History has witnessed the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries, Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.

In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because“ the general principles of taste are uniform(不變的) in human nature,” the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.

Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.

1.According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?

A. It introduces different cultural values.

B. It explains the history of artistic works.

C. It relates artistic values to local conditions.

D. It excites the human mind throughout the world.

2.In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that ---.

A. great works of art can go beyond national boundaries

B. history gives art works special appeal to set them apart

C. popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great arts

D. great artists are skilled at combining various cultures

3.According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because ----.

A. they are results of scientific study

B. they establish some general principles of art

C. they are created by the world’s greatest artists

D. they appeal to unchanging features of human nature

4.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage

A. Are Artistic Values Universal

B. Are Popular Arts Permanent

C. Is Human Nature Uniform

D. Is Cultural Relativism Scientific

Are you good with money？I learnt to be careful with it during my childhood. My father would give me some pocket money and tell me it should last for a whole week. So，I learnt I had to save some if I didn’t want to run out of cash quickly. No surprise there：my dad was an accountant！

It's never too early to become money savvy（會理財）．That's what British personal finances expert Martin Lewis thinks. He was part of a successful campaign to include financial education on the school curriculum in England. It will be embedded(植入）in maths and citizenship education. This includes children from 5 to 16 years old.

Lewis says：“We desperately need to break the cycle of financial illiteracy(無知）in the UK—one of the causes of our current economic crisis and a huge contributor to continued mis-selling epidemics（違規(guī)銷售）．”

Being careful with money pays off. Banks in Britain recently found themselves having to pay a large number of people who were persuaded to spend money and buy insurance policies they didn’t need. Many wasted their money on investments which were not for them. Few have the patience to read the small print.

The British say‘take care of the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves’．It means you have to watch your daily expenses and not just the big purchases in your life such as houses.

Martin Lewis has made millions from his website which advises people to be thrifty(節(jié)儉）and refuses any suggestion that he is mean. The expert says in an interview with the English newspaper the Daily Express：“the better you are with your cash，the better your life can be. People think I am telling them to stop spending money but I am simply telling them to spend it wisely.”

1.From Paragraph 1 we can know that the author ___________.

A. was in deep debt

B. was good with money as a child

C. ran out of cash quickly

D. earned a lot of money

2.The financial education in England aims to ________.

A. educate children to become money savvy

B. avoid continued mis-selling epidemics

C. help children make money

D. deal with the current economic crisis

3.What’s the financial problem of some people in Britain？

A. They have no patience to spend money.

B. They watch their daily expenses.

C. They invest money blindly and unwisely.

D. They neglect big purchases.

A food additive (添加劑) is any substance that is added to food. Many people are put off by the idea of “chemicals in food.” The truth is that all food is made up of chemicals. Natural substances like milk, as well as man-made ones like drinks on sale in the market, can be described by chemical formulas. Some chemical substances are indeed harmful, but a person who refused to consume any chemicals would find nothing to eat.

The things we eat can be divided into natural and man-made substances. Some people feel that only natural foods are healthy and that all man-made ingredients are to be avoided. But many natural chemicals, found in plants and animals, are harmful when eaten, and some laboratory-made substances increase the nutritional value of food. Other chemicals have natural and man-made forms that are exactly alike: vitamin C is vitamin C, whether it comes from a test tube or from an orange. Like “chemical”, “man-made” doesn’t necessarily mean “not fit to eat”.

Food additives are used for many reasons. We add sugar and salt and other things to foods we prepare at home to make them taste better. Food producers have developed a range of additives that stabilize（使穩(wěn)定）, thicken, harden, keep wet, keep firm, or improve the appearance of their products. Additives can make food more convenient or nutritious, give it a longer shelf life, and make it more attractive to the consumer, thus increasing the sales and profits of the producers.

Food additives are presently the centre of a storm of serious argument. Food producers have been known to use additives that have not been proved safe; some substances in common use have been proved unsafe and have been taken off the market. Many people feel there’s a risk of eating food to which anything has been added. But food additives are now regulated by the FDA of the federal government, and new additives will go through strict testing before they can be placed on the market. For most people, the chances of developing serious side effects (副作用) from the long-term use of presently approved (批準) food additives are very small.

1.From the passage we can learn that .

A. natural foods are much safer than man-made ones

B. it is right to refuse chemicals in food

C. food additives are harmful to our health

D. all foods have chemical substances

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Food additives can improve the quality of foods in many ways.

B. To ensure food safety, the FDA will stop food additives.

C. Foods free of additives can keep a much longer shelf life.

D. Foods with more additives have higher nutritional value.

3.We can infer from the regulation to the food additives by the FDA that .

A. new additives will be approved more easily than before

B. food with common-used additives will be taken off the market

C. food additives will be used in a safer and more scientific way

D. food producers won’t be allowed to use new food additives

4.According to the writer, the food additive is .

A. worrying B. acceptable

C. poisonous D. avoidable

Taking exams in a large group setting can be stressful for students and for the staff members who are watching over them.

When classrooms are crowded and desks are close together, cheating might be tempting.

One university in Thailand came up with an anti-cheating hat that makes it almost impossible for students to see other students’ papers． A photo of the students wearing the anti-cheating hats made its way to the Internet, and the university was criticized for making students wear those ridiculous looking homemade hats． The hats were made by stapling pieces of paper onto a headband, one to each side of the head.
