第1题,1.??<font face="Arial">Acting is such an over-crowded profession
that the only advice that should be given to a young person thinking
of going on the stage is "Don't!" But it is useless to try
to discourage someone who feels that he must act, although the
chances of his becoming famous are slim. The normal way to begin is
to go to a drama school. Usually only students who show promise and
talent are accepted, and the course lasts two years. Then the young
actor or actress takes up work with a theatrical company (剧团),
usually as an assistant stage manager. This means doing everything
that there is to do in the theatre and occasionally acting in very
small parts. It is very hard work indeed, the hours are long and the
salary is tiny.<br />Of course, some people have remarkable chances
which lead to fame and success without this long and hard training.
Connie Pratt, for example, was just an ordinary girl working in a
bicycle factory. A film producer happened to catch sight of her one
morning waiting at a bus stop, as he drove past in his car. He
stopped and got out to speak to the girl. He asked if she would like
to go to the film studio to do a test, and she thought he was
joking. Then she got angry and said she would call the police. It
took the producer twenty minutes to convince Connie that he was
serious. The test was successful. And within a few weeks she was
playing the leading part opposite one of the most famous actors of
the day. But chances like this happen once in a blue moon!<br

第2题,2.??<font face="Arial"> In the last 500 years,
nothing about people—not their clothes, ideas, or
languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original
chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South
American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world
during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it
quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks
were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.
<br />The potato is also from the new world. Around 1600, the
Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely
grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish
people starved when the crop failed during the “potato
famine” of 1845-1846, and thousands more were forced to leave
their motherland and move to America.<br />There are many other
foods that have traveled from South American to the Old World. But
some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the
world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important
crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is
native to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. It was first made into a
drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.<br />
According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a person
named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berried
on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the wide-awake
feeling that one–third of the world’s population now
starts the day with.</font>

第3题,3.??<font face="Arial">The resources of the library can be
helpful even when we are doing something very informal, such as
trying to devise a better way to measure attitudes toward music or
looking for a better way to teach mathematics. The library can be
equally helpful when we are doing something very formal, such as
writing a dissertation (学位论文) or preparing an article for
publication in a professional journal. In either case, our goal
should be to use the library as a useful tool to help us understand
and solve our problem. <br /> The following
sections of this chapter will describe specific resources available
in many libraries. In some cases you may already be aware of a
resource and may use it frequently and successfully. In other cases
you may be completely unfamiliar |
