E

Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world. In rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a false idea created by companies and advertiser, hoping to sell their products.

The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people’s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item(商品) that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.

It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with case into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no anxiety.

What does the author try to argue in Paragraph 1?

  A. The exercise of rights is a luxury.       

  B. The practice of choice is difficult.

  C. The right of choice is given but at a price.

 D. Choice and right exist at the same time.

Why do more choices of goods give rise to anxiety?

  A. Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.

  B. People are likely to find themselves overcome by business persuasion.

  C. Shoppers may find themselves lost in the broad range of items.

  D. Companies and advertisers are often misleading about the rage of choice.

By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that    .

A. advanced products meet the needs of people

B. products of the latest design fold the market

C. competitions are fierce in high-tech industry

D. everyday goods need to be replaced often

What is this passage mainly about?

A. The variety of choices in modern society.

B. The opinions on people’s right in different countries

C. The Problems about the availability of everyday goods.

D. The helplessness in purchasing decisions

After achieving a 9 percent GDP growth, hosting a successful Olympic Games and carrying out its first space walk, you'd think China would be happy．Yet China is not pleased．That at least is the opinion of a new book written by a group of Chinese authors．
China Is Not Happy was released in March．It is a follow-up to the 1996 work China Can Say No, a bestseller that complained about the influence of the West, and the US in particular, on China．Thirteen years later, the authors of China Is Not Happy list their dissatisfaction with how China is being treated in the world today．They argue that China needs to use its growing power and economic resources to build its own position of outstanding performances．"From looking at the history of human civilization, we are most qualified to lead this world．Westerners should be second," the book says．
The authors, single out the US for special scorn (輕蔑), and say their book's message has been helped by the economic crisis．"This economic problem has shown the Chinese people that America does have problems, and that what we've been saying is right," said Wang Xiaodong, one of the authors in an interview with The Wall Street Journal．Since being released on March 13, the book has become a bestseller in many Chinese bookstores．The publisher has printed 270,000 copies, and says sales are far better than expected．
Yet much of the response to the book has been negative．Several reviews in the Chinese media have criticized the book's radical opinions．The book is a way to "fish money from the pockets of the angry youth and angry elderly," wrote one critic in the China Youth Daily．Meanwhile, a well-known sociologist, Li Yinhe, has said that China needs patriotism (愛國(guó)精神), but there is a limit．In her blog she wrote, "If we are to bully other countries, take the world's resources and try to lead it, we're going over the top." Wang Xiaodong admitted in an interview with the US' Time magazine that the book's title is a bit of a trick．"Those words in the title are just for the purpose of promoting the book in the marketplace," he says．"We didn't choose them．It was the people selling the book who chose the title, because it would sell well."
1．What is the best title of the article?
A．Happy China makes wonders       B．China—happy or unhappy?
C．China is not happy               D．China challenges the world
2．Which of the following statements doesn’t agree with the opinions of the new book?
A．China has made great historical breakthroughs in the past several years.
B．China’s civilization has advantages over the westerners’.
C．China needs to use its growing power and economic resources to build its own world
Position
D．China should be the number one leader in the world
3．The book is named China Is Not Happy because___________ .
A．China wants to put pressure on the western countries.
B．it reflects the national feelings of Chinese people.
C．it is a good selling point.
D．the authors of the book want to make a hit in the market.

What is great art? On the one hand, we can all see that great art is old art which is called great. But how do we know which art of our own times is great, and which will be forgotten? And who decides?

These are important questions, for the great art of the past often was not considered great during its own time. When Shakespeare and Charles Dickens were writing, for example, most critics considered them as hack (平庸的) writers with little or no literary ability.

Similarly, Van Gogh and many of the other Impressionist painters of the late nineteenth century were not allowed to participate in events involving what were thought to be the "real" painters of the time, and often they were very poor. Yet today their paintings often sell for millions of dollars, while those so-called "real" painters are now barely remembered.

So what makes great art? Can, for example, rock music be great art? Music videos? Cartoons and comics? Those who call themselves critics of the fine arts often have been the last to recognize great art in the past, and we can probably expect this to be the situation today.

Critics often don’t recognize great art because they tend to be prejudiced against what is popular. Popular works, whether they are novels, movies, or comics, are usually considered to be produced for the sake of money only, and not for the sake of art.

But popularity, it seems to me, is one of the three signs that a present-day work of art may come to be thought of as great. The other two are that it is groundbreaking, and that it is inherently (內(nèi)在的) beautiful.

Many works have one or even two of these qualities of being popular, unusual, and beautiful. But having all the three often will mean that a work of art will someday be seen to be great, though it may take a good spoonful of time, such as a century or two, to know for sure.

1.The first paragraph is intended to__________.

A．lead to the following and arouse the reader’s curiosity

B．introduce some real painters to the readers

C．introduce the questions the writer wants to answer

D．explain what kind of art will become popular

2.The author used the examples of Shakespeare, Charles Dickens and Van Gogh to prove _____.

A．these masters’ works have some shortcomings

B．these masters wouldn’t have been so successful without the critics

C．truly beautiful works of art are never understood when first created

D．great masters are often not acknowledged while they were alive

3.According to the author, great works _______.

A．may be presented in different forms

B．a(chǎn)re generally valued by critics

C．a(chǎn)re thought valuable because of their sale price

D．will lose their value if they’re not accepted

4.What can be inferred from the passage?

A．Critics have changed their attitudes to great works.

B．Most of the opinions of critics are valueless.

C．The work of art itself, not the critics, determines its greatness.

D．Works of Impressionist painters will be great one day.
