单选题Auctions (拍卖) are public sales of goods, conducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He asks the crowd assembled in the auction room to make offers, or "bids", for the various items on sale. He encourages buyers to bid higher figures, and finally names the highest bidder as the buyer of goods. This is called "knocking down the goods, for the bidding ends when the auctioneer bangs a small hammer on a table at which he stands, This is often set on a raised platform called a rostrum. The ancient Romans probably invented sales by auction, and the English word comes from the Latin auction, meaning "increase". The Romans usually sold in this way the spoils taken in war; these sales were called "subusta", meaning "under the spear", a spear being stuck in the ground as a signal for a crowd to gather. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries goods were often sold by the candle', a short candle was lit by the auctioneer; and bids could be made while it stayed alight. An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be sold and where and when they can be viewed by possible buyers. If the advertisement cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of goods to be sold together, called a "lot", is usually given a number. The auctioneer need not begin with lot 1 and continue in numerical order; be may wait until he registers the fact that certain dealers arc in the room and then pro- duce the lots they are likely to be interested in. The auctioneer's services are paid for in the form of a percentage of the price the goods are sold for. The auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible. Practicaly all goods whose qualities vary are sold by auction. Among these are coffee, hider, skins, wool, tea, cocoa, furs, spices, fruit and vegetables and wines. Auction sales are also usual for land and property, antique, furniture, pictures, rare books, old china, and similar works of art. The auction-rooms at Christie's and Sotheby's in London and New York are world famous.

单选题 Haiti's Tourism A. Like many of its Caribbean neighbors, Haiti once drew many tourists. But decades of political instability, repression and poverty, as well as natural disasters, led to the decay of the tourism infrastructure, and almost no visitors come now. Officials would like to change that. The arts town of Jacmel is one place they think could be a start. B. A couple of untidy aid workers were sucking down Sunday morning beers at the Hotel Florida here when the minister of tourism rolled up to the roadside, followed by the interior minister with body guards and then the star of the show, New York fashion designer Donna Karan of DKNY. The notables were in Jacmel , the funky(含有黑人韵味的爵士) art and carnival capital of Haiti, to plot the transformation of the earthquake-rattled port from a faded flower of the Caribbean to a resort destination for celebrities. C. 'We're trying to rebrand Haiti, and so we're bringing Donna here to help us with our vision,' Tourism Minister Stephanie Balrmir Villedrouin said in an interview. 'We're trying to raise the bar a little bit,' Said Karma, as she swept through the abandoned Hotel Jacmeliernne—its seaside swimming pool green with grass, its overgrown gardens littered with broken glass—Oh, We can definitely work with this!' D. As hard as it may be for young Haitians to believe, their country was once a tourist destination. Even during the bad old days of the Duvaiier dictatorships (独裁), tourists came. Or at least a few: see Graham Greene's 1966 novel The Comedians, set incidentally at a hotel and based on a real-life mansion (大厦), the Hotel Oloffson in the capital; the hotel is still in operation but is now run by Richard Morse, front man for the rock band RAM and the new government's special political envoy (大使) to the Americas. Today, nobody visits Haiti for fun, except Haitians returning from the abroad. The arrivals at the Port-au-Prince airport are filled with Baptist missionaries, UN officials and American nurses—not a real tourist in sight. E. Yet across the Caribbean, revenue from tourism represents about 16 percent of gross domestic product, and many island nations, such as the Bahamas, Barbados and Antigua, generate at least a third of their GDP from visitors. For most of the Caribbean, tourists' dollars, euros and pesos (比索) are the No.1 source of foreign investment. F. Haiti let its tourism infrastructure degrade over three decades of political instability, hurricanes, earth quakes and deadly disease. But the poorest country in the Western hemisphere has a lot to offer the adventuresome visitor, according to international planners and Haitian officials. The Creole French cuisine (美食) here is some of the best in the Caribbean; its artisans are of world renown, its blend of African and Spanish music unique. All this, and rock music, too. G. The still-evolving plans for Haiti forecast Jacmel as a stand-alone destination, meaning tourists would not land in the disordered, dangerous, poor capital, Port-au-Prince, but arrive directly here via air or boat. H. With development aid from banks and donor nations, the government of former carnival singer and current President Michel Martelly is planning to extend the airport runway at Jacmel so it can accomodate small jets that would shuttle from Miami and Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Puerto Rico; and Guadaloupe. The deserted port is also scheduled for restoration to allow big cruise ships to dock. I. In the late 1800s, Jacmel was an important Caribbean crossroads in Haiti—then called the 'Pearl of the Antilles'—and its downtown still harbors the Creole architecture of iron balconies and shuttered ware houses for coffee and orange peel. The town reminds many visitors of the French Quarter in New Orleans, and it hosts one of the best carnivals in the Caribbean, as well as a music festival and a film festival, now struggling to gain promotion again after the 2010 earthquake, seeing potential in rain. J. Donna Karan knows Jacmel well; she shot her fall catalog at the Hotel Florida. The New Yorker gamely jumped into the bed of a small track for a tour of town. It stopped at the Manoir Alexandre, once the most prominent building in the city and now a rain that is slowly being restored by Leon Paul, a Haitian American orthopedic surgeon from New York. K. 'We want to restore the mansion to its former glory, but as you can see, that is a big job,' Paul said as he walked Karan through the property, with its peeling wallpaper, holes in the roof, missing stair sand tilting balcony. L. He said Jacmel, his home town, will rise from the ruins, and he promised that someday soon, Haitian said visitors will be sitting in his restored mansion, listening to a band, drinking rum and celebrating. As Karan crawled through the ruins, she saw not despair, but hope: 'Wow! Look at this. These are my colors. The rust, yellow and blue. Take a picture. This is perfect!'
