{{B}} Mrs. White{{/B}} I hate salesmen. I mean they
are always pestering me to buy things I don't want. Why should I waste my time
listening to their lies and looking at the junk they are trying to sell me? When
I need something, I go out and buy it. Things are cheaper at the supermarket and
there's a much better selection there.{{B}} Mrs. Lee{{/B}}
People prefer to buy from door-to-door salesmen because they are so
friendly. A good salesman always brings things like candies for the children,
sympathy for the tired housewife and a smile for the lonely old people. And the
customers always have a chance to try things before they actually buy them. You
don't get that kind of service at the supermarket.{{B}} Mrs. Ros{{/B}}
I just don't trust those salesmen. Once you let in a salesperson
you can never get rid of him. They just keep talking and talking until you buy
his goods. When you come to use the thing, you find out it's a piece of junk.
But you can't get your money back. They use all kinds of dishonest tricks to get
people to buy overpriced goods which they don't need and can't afford.{{B}}
Mr. Wales{{/B}} I have met salesmen who sell only quality
products. Customers test everything in their own homes and at their own
convenience. I've heard a few cases of salesman harassing customers or making
false claims. I suppose there are a few bad salesmen. But there are also bad
doctors, bad policemen and so on. They aren't typical of their profession.{{B}}
Mr. Baker{{/B}} Salesmen often came by for a coffee and
a nice talk. I'm so glad they do so. I don't have many visitors and the salesmen
are interesting people. They talk in vivid language, and they are usually polite
people. I'm a little too old to go out to the stores and buy things. I don't
mind paying a little extra when they are brought to my home.{{I}} Now
match each of the people (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.
Note: There are two extra statements.{{/I}}{{B}} Statements{{/B}}
A. Salesmen often come to ask for a lot of coffee.
B. Salesmen are usually adolecents.
C. I prefer to buy things in a supermarket because things there are
cheaper.
D. I never trust salesmen.
E. Salesmen provide better service than supermarkets do. F.
Most salesmen don't take in their customers. G. Salesmen are
interesting and usually polite people.

单选题People who love music, who can lose themselves in a book, or who can spend hours painting a picture of a mountain, know the deep satisfaction that can be found in art. It is not easy to express this satisfaction in words. But, in some partly mysterious (神秘的) way, works of art are among the things of highest value in our lives. A fine piece of music, a masterpiece of painting, or a first-class play has the power to hold our fullest attention. We are completely lost in it, and everything works out right. The music comes to the right close at the right time and in the right way. The play ends, not necessarily on a happy note, but in a way that seems enjoyable. As we get to know more about painting, its parts seem to belong together and to be made for one another. We see harmony(和谐) in the object and feel harmony within ourselves. When the beautiful experience has ended, we often feel uplifted and refreshed. Our eyes and ears, or our understanding of other persons and values, may be sharpened and improved. We may feel more at home with ourselves. Works of art have value for us in some such ways as these. It is this value that marks the difference between great art and simple entertainment (娱乐). A work that is fairly easy to understand takes little effort on our part. It may give us pleasure, but it does not touch our feelings or attract out attention at a deep level.
