Each year, the bright light of the Nobel Prize in literature falls across our cultural canvas and illuminates the work of a major writer.
While 21.___________ of previous years have gone to writers of prose, poetry and drama, the Swedish Academy, which awards the prize, announced on Oct 13 that American singer Bob Dylan, 75, was this year’s winner. However, the prize wasn’t given for his 2004 self-penned autobiography, but “for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition.”
It is certainly a(n) 22.____________ choice. According to Steve Johnson of the Chicago Tribune, arts awards have almost always exclusively had an inherent bias toward so-called “high culture”, a category 23.____________ not to include people who got their start singing in coffeehouses.
With that said, the Swedish Academy’s selection can be seen as symbolic in its implication. By picking Dylan, the Academy has made a bold 24.____________ to expand the definition of “literature”. It has, in effect, opened the doors to popular culture, often 25.__________ to as “low culture”.
We live in a world where people who read comic books, watch television shows, listen to podcasts and pop music, are often also those who enjoy poetry and opera. And the Nobel, in 26.____________ Dylan’s work as literature, acknowledges that artists create works of popular culture with just as much care, control, courage and 27.__________ as Ernest Hemingway did sitting down at his typewriter.
Dylan experts can battle over whether or not the singer indeed writes poetry–he was given the prize for his lyrics and music.
If music and lyrics count as literature, as plays have done, could not other forms Could we, someday, see a Nobel in literature go to US TV producer David Simon, Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki, or even US singer Beyonce
As Los Angeles Times pop music 28.____________ Robert Hilburn said about Dylan’s work: “He’s a great cultural figure because of his words and his ideas.”
And for all the flash and bang of any performed art or filmed project, it’s the words that 29.____________, wrote Carolyn Kellogg of the Los Angeles Times.
American TV series Breaking Bad (2008-2013) didn’t exist without US actor Bryan Cranston’s brilliant performance–but he couldn’t have gotten there without the words on the page.
Dylan’s Nobel says that words don’t have to be bound within 30.___________ to be literature. It’s possible the Swedish Academy will back off its radical choice. But for now, literature is all around us. Read it, listen to it or watch it.

Public image doesn’t make money directly, nor is it anything visible. However, excellent public image is such an important thing that it is 31 desired by every company, enterprise, institution, etc. Public image refers to how a company is 32 by its customers, supplies, and stockholders(股东), by the financial community, by the communities where it operates, and by federal and local governments. Public image is controllable to 33 extent, just as the product, price, place, and promotional efforts are.
A firm’s public image plays a vital role in the 34 of the firm and its products to employees, customers, and to such outsiders as stockholders, suppliers, creditors(贷款方), government officials, as well as different special groups. With some things it is impossible to 35 all the different publics: for example, a new highly automated plant may meet the 36 of creditors and stockholders. However, it will 37 find resistance from employees who see their jobs threatened. On the other hand, high quality products and service standards should bring almost complete approval, while low quality products and false claims would be widely looked down upon.
A firm’s public image, if it is good, should be 38 . It is a valuable strength that usually is built up over a long and satisfying relationship of a firm with publics. If a firm has 39 a quality image, this is not easily imitated by competitors. Such an image may enable a firm to 40________ higher prices, to win the best distributors and dealers, to attract the best employees, to expect the most favorable creditor relationships and lowest borrowing costs. It should also allow the firm’s stock to achieve higher price-earnings ratio(比例) than other firms in the same industry with such a good reputation and public image.

Charles Dickens’ novel A Tale of Two Cities is set in the years before and during the French Revolution (1789 - 1799). During its course, French revolutionaries brought down the empire and established a republic of free and equal citizens.
In reading the work, one sees that Dickens distorted some details of the French Revolution. At the beginning, Dickens notes that, in 1775, France was busy spending money. This mention of France’s spending touches briefly on what is perhaps the major cause of the French Revolution. Before the revolution, the government often borrowed money because it spent more than it raised in taxes. The increased spending and borrowing made many people’s blood boil, yet Dickens focused instead on the nobility’s oppression and exploitation of the working class, including peasants, as the causes of the revolution.
The Marquis, one of the book’s characters, ill-treats and kills many people. Thus, he represents the nobles who mistreat the lower classes. One reviewer criticized this picture as an unfair representation of French society in the mid-1700s. The reviewer pointed out that the government would have punished nobles who mistreated or murdered. Nobles may have been guilty of other evils, however, such as not feeding the starving masses after bad weather ruined crops in 1789.
Dickens’ account of the storming of the Bastille fails to mention that the gang that stormed the prison was looking for bullets and bombs to use in defense against a possible attack by the king’s troops. Dickens does include some accurate details, however, such as the crowd’s finding only seven prisoners and freeing them and the pack’s executing (处决) the prison administrator and sticking his head on a post. The scene that the women knit (编织) as they watch the executions may seem to be an odd detail, but actually many women did knit stockings for the war effort as they watched the killing machine at work.
Dickens’ descriptions of the steady stream of sentenced people into prison and the carts taking them to their deaths give readers some idea of the frequency with which officials jailed and executed people during the Rule of Terror, which lasted about a year. During the Terror, the government jailed about 250 thousand people, tried (审判) and killed about 17 thousand, and executed about 12 thousand without a trial. Those executed included people who opposed the revolution, people who offended the revolutionaries, and even some revolutionaries. About 15 percent were members of the ministry or nobility.
56. What does the word “distorted” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean
A. Discussed. B. Revealed. C. Provided. D. Twisted.

A. A wild crowd rushed into the Bastille to fight with the royal soldiers.

D. Women were forced to work for the war supplies while watching people killed.
58 What can be inferred from the passage
A. Dickens was once among the revolutionaries storming the Bastille.
B. There was an extreme disorder and horror during the revolution.
C. Nobles of those days in France were loaded with heavy social responsibilities.
D. Classic literary works may serve as history textbooks to a great degree.
59. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage
A. The Collapse of the French Empire
B. Unknown Facts during the Rule of Terror

Happiness can be described as a positive mood and a pleasant state of mind. According to recent polls survey, sixty to seventy percent of Americans consider themselves to be moderately happy and one in twenty persons feels very unhappy. Psychologists have been studying the factors that contribute to happiness. It is not predictable, nor is a person in an apparently ideal situation necessarily happy. The ideal situation may have little to do with his actual feelings.
A good education and income are usually considered necessary for happiness. Though both may contribute, they are only chief factors if the person is seriously undereducated or actually suffering from lack of physical needs.
The rich are not likely to be happier than the middle-income group or even those with very low incomes. People with college educations are somewhat happier than those who did not graduate from high school, and this is perhaps mainly because they have more opportunities to control their lives. Yet people with a high income and a college education may be less happy than those with the same income and no college education.
Poor health does not rule out happiness except for the severely disabled or those in pain. Learning to cope with a health problem can contribute to happiness. Those who have good relationship with other family members are happier than those who live alone. Love has a higher correlation with happiness than any other factors.
It should be noted that people quickly get used to what they have, and they are happiest when they feel they are increasing their level wherever it stands at a given time.
Children whose parents were happily married have happier childhoods, but are not necessarily happier adults.
The best formula(准则) for happiness is to be able to develop AQ (Adversity Quotient that can be of great benefit when running into trouble), to have a personal involvement and commitment, and to develop self-confidence and self-esteem.
63. It can be inferred from the passage that .
A. happiness is neither predictable nor apparent
B. a person in an apparently ideal situation must be happy
C. the rich are not likely to be happier than the middle-income group
D. happiness is not necessarily connected to one’s situation in society
64. According to the article, happiness is greatly dependent upon .
A. a happy childhood in which one can do whatever he likes
B. great wealth with which one can buy anything
C. a feeling that conditions are becoming for the better
D. a college degree that can help one achieve great success
65. The letters AQ in the last paragraph most probably mean .
A. ambition to defeat others in a severe competition
B. ability to overcome difficulty and get out of embarrassing situation
C. methods of solving difficult problems and challenges in life
D. attitudes towards severe competition especially in trouble
66. The best title of this passage may be .

As has been all too apparent in recent days at Balcombe, few issues cause greater concern than energy policy. Many village communities feel their countryside is being ruined by the power-producing machines of wind farms; yet they never take "direct action", even though the planning laws put them at a severe disadvantage. And the generous subsidies (财政补贴) , which encourage the expansion of wind power, are not favorable to the village communities and set landowners in conflict with other residents.
Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion to the benefits they bring, because their energy output cannot match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. Supporters insist that wind must be part of a mix of renewables, nuclear and carbon, and that the country is committed to meeting EU (European Union) targets for non-carbon energy generation.
Against this background, the fact that there is an argument within the Government over whether to publish an official report on wind farms' impact on the countryside becomes even more extraordinary. The two parties in the coalition (联合) government are in disagreement over what it should say.
We have some advice for the two parties: publish the report, and let the country be the judge. Even if it contains evidence that wind farms are harmful, it will hardly be a pleasant surprise to people who do not like them. Equally, supporters must argue their case by acknowledging the concerns and explaining why they are either misplaced or worthy of much attention.
The suggestion that further negotiations are to take place to produce an "acceptable" report suggests that the politics of coalition government are doing the country harm in a certain way. Given the sensitivities involved, all the information should be available so that people can reach their own conclusions, rather than being left with the suspicion that facts are being replaced by political beliefs.
67. We can learn from the first paragraph that__________.
A. energy policy catches much attention of the public
B. the residents are in favor of the expansion of wind farms
C. many village communities are satisfied with the subsidies
D. the planning laws offer great benefits to the residents
68. Supporters think that the expansion of wind power___________.
A. is more rapid than that of carbon-based power
B. guarantees an increase in energy output
C. is expected to be much better than that of nuclear power
D. agrees with EU targets for non-carbon energy generation
69. It can be inferred from the passage that_____________.
A. an official report will settle the energy problem
B. the two parties are divided over the issue of wind farms
C. the two parties have agreed on a further negotiation
D. political beliefs concerning energy issue go against facts
70. Which of the following reflects the author's opinion
A. Increase political impact on energy policy.
B. Release a statement of supporters on wind farms.
C. Let the nation judge the facts about wind power.
D. Leave the two parties to reach their conclusions.
