| 第4题：The questions in this group are based on the content of a passage.After reading the passage, choose the best answer to each question.Answer all questions following the passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage. One of the best sources modem scholars have for learning about HellenisticEgypt is the large supply of papyrus fragments that have turned up in theEgyptian desert over the last century. Papyrus is a thick type of paper made from a reedy plant found inEgypt. Papyrus is much tougher than the wood-pulp paper used in modern society; whereas a book produced today will most likely fall apart within a century, there are papyrus fragments that are still legible over 2,000 years after scribes wrote on them. It is primarily by accident that any of these fragments have surviveD、Most of the surviving fragments have been found in ancient garbage dumps that were covered over by the desert and preserved in the dry heat. The benefit of this type of archeological find is that these discarded scraps often give us a more accurate picture of the daily lives of ancientEgyptians--their business affairs, personal correspondence, and religious pleas--than the stone engravings and recorded texts that were intended to be passed down to later generations. One of the most important papyrus discoveries of recent years was the revelation in 2001 that a scrap of papyrus that had been discarded and used to wrap a mummy contained 110 previously unknown epigrams (short, witty poems) by the Hellenistic poet Posidippus (cA、280-240B、 C、). Posidippus lived inAlexandria and benefited from the support of King Ptolemy II Philadelphos (ruled 284-246B、 C、). These new epigrams have yielded fascinating insight into the court culture and literary sensibilities of early HellenisticEgypt. King Ptolemy, of course, was also a sponsor of the famous library ofAlexandria, the greatest depository of knowledge in the ancient worlD、According to the twelfth-centuryByzantine writer John Tzetzes, the ancient library contained nearly half a million papyrus scrolls. If that library had not burned down, maybe archeologists today would not have to spend so much of their time sorting through ancient trash! The author’s primary intention in this passage appears to be which of the following A、To shed light on the underappreciated work of the Hellenistic poet Posidippus B、To compare the relative merits of papyrus, and wood-pulp paper as media for recording information C、To discuss the ways in which papyrus fragments help scholars learn about HellenisticEgypt D、To answer the questions regarding the burning of the library ofAlexandria, one of the great mysteries of the ancient world E、To suggest possibly fruitful paths for future archeological research into HellenisticEgypt |

| 第5题：The questions in this group are based on the content of a passage.After reading the passage, choose the best answer to each question.Answer all questions following the passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage. The collapse of the stock "bubble" of Internet-related companies in 2000-2001 has resulted in more than its fair share of analysis, hand-wringing, and finger-pointing.A、panel discussion at a recent Technology Today conference in Santa Monica produced a heated debate between two former luminaries of the dot.corn world: investment banker Pat Verhofen and Sue Mickelson, founder andCEO of Internet retailer Frizbeez.com. Verhofen fired the opening shot by placing blame for the collapse of Internet stocks on the shoulders of Internet entrepreneurs who aggressively promoted ideas without viable business models. These entrepreneurs were both irresponsible and deceptive, Verhofen argued, to take investors’ money to fund operations that could not reasonably turn a profit, such as giving computers away for free or selling bulky objects, such as dog food or furniture, over the Internet. Many of these companies, he suggested, were little more than arrangements of smoke and mirrors designed to separate investors from their money. Mickelson responded that Verhofen was like a fox in a henhouse blaming the rooster for all the dead chickens.Entrepreneurs cannot be blamed, she argued, for trying to make money for themselves and other people, because that is what entrepreneurs do. She also stated that you cannot know what ideas will or will not work until you try them; contemporaries of the Wright brothers said that a heavier-than-air aircraft could never work, and look at the skies today. Mickelson instead placed the blame on the unscrupulous bankers and fund managers who hyped Internet stocks in order to cash in on fees from IPOs and trades. In contrast to entrepreneurs, these financial types actually do have a responsibility to offer only sound financial advice to their clients. If anyone should bear the blame, she argued, it should be people like Pat Verhofen. Indigo Smith, the moderator of the panel, responded that perhaps the true fault lay with the common investors, who should not have invested in technology stocks in the first place if they lacked the knowledge to do so properly. While she expressed sympathy for those elderly investors who lost substantial portions of their retirement savings on flimsy Internet stocks, she observed that no one forced them to invest in those stocks. Which of the following best captures the meaning of the simile attributed to Mickelson that Verhofen "was like a fox in a henhouse blaming the rooster for all the dead chickens" A、As an entrepreneur, Mickelson understands that similes and other figures of speech can help convey complex ideas to audiences. B、Verhofen, as an investment banker, was personally responsible for promoting businesses that he knew were not viable from a long-term perspective. C、Foxes, unlike roosters, have no legitimate business in henhouses, and are far more likely than roosters to kill chickens. D、As an investment banker, Verhofen was more likely to be the culprit of the crime than those he identified as responsible. E、Entrepreneurs cannot be blamed for trying to make money for themselves and other people because that is what they do. |
