单选题{{B}}Passage Three{{/B}} The question of ethics in the legal profession is one that has plagued the industry since its inception. The common image of an attorney is one who will resort to any unethical trick to twist the laws to fit his purposes. In the more specific industry of criminal law, defense attorneys are often criticized for advocating on behalf of defendants who are "obviously guilty," thus becoming roadblocks on the path to justice. Much to the contrary, however, defense attorneys provide a valuable serve that should earn them praise, not scorn. While it is true that every lawyer will do everything within his power to interpret the laws in the manner most beneficial to his client, such a characterization is by no means limited to defense attorneys. The prosecutor will do the same thing, employing all his legal knowledge and know-how to establish the guilt of the defendant. In this respect, the vague nature of the law is highlighted, and it becomes a virtual necessity for each side to use every tool at their disposal, on the assumption that the other side will also use every tool at his. The net result emerges as a positive, in which the tricks of the opposing attorneys cancel one another out, leaving only the truth, clearer and devoid of manipulation, presented for the jury's consideration. Further, the defense attorney is a vital element of the American judicial system, in that without him the defendant would stand no chance whatsoever. Under the constitution, even the most "obvious guilty" defendants are guaranteed the right to a fair trial, involving someone able and willing to advocate on his behalf. Of course, there are bad apples in the industry who are unethical and care nothing for actual justice, and whose only concerns are their wallets. Generally speaking, however, without defense attorneys, the system would crumble into a mere machine in which defendants are assumed guilty, without a chance to argue or prove otherwise, and many innocent people falsely charged with crimes would be severely punished for transgressions that they didn't commit. It is a basic fact that the adversarial system of justice in the United States is necessary in order to ensure the fairest and most unbiased presentation and evaluation of the facts possible. Without defense attorneys, that system cannot be carried out, and would result in a loss of the civil liberties that the nation enjoys and treasures. To that end, all of those who make that process a reality, including defense attorneys, deserve our support and admiration, not our suspicion and disdain.

单选题{{B}}Passage Four{{/B}} Many tourists must have dreamed of owning a small house in a foreign country -- perhaps on a stretch of lonely coast -- to which they could return year after year to enjoy the sun and the sea. Others, with even bigger ideas and a lot more money to spend, think of buying hotels. In any case, it is absolutely essential to know a great deal about the value of property, otherwise the buyer may be at the mercy of(由……摆布) dishonest agents. Some tourists, however, are so foolish that they really deserve to be cheated by agents. We would consider a person mad if he walked into a museum and asked to "buy" a great work of art. Though no one has told us, we all know that certain things can never be sold, no matter how much money is offered. Yet, nearly every year since 1944, a buyer has been found for the Colosseum (古罗马圆形剧场) in Rome. The first one was a soldier who parted with his money for what was described as "a rather broken down and heavily damaged building in a good position". The people of Rome eagerly look forward to each year's "sale". They were amused to learn that, as usual, a tourist recently expressed the desire to buy the historic building. Two agents told him that the building was in need of repair, but the buyer could expect a high return for his capital. They took him to the Colosseum itself and pointed out that the top floor would make a wonderful international restaurant. It was in an ideal position and offered a fine view of the city of Rome. Besides, for some strange reason, so many people wished to visit the building that the buyer would make a considerable profit on entrance tickets. In the agents' opinion, it was well worth spending money on a building like this. They asked the buyer for a mere 200 000 lire as a deposit and told him they would complete arrangements that evening at a certain hotel. The tourist was sure that he had bought 'a bargain and later went to the hotel to meet the agents. But, of course, they never came.
