单选题{{B}}Passage One{{/B}}
Spending time in a bookshop can be most
enjoyable, whether you are a book-lover or merely go there to buy a book as a
present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden
shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your
surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive dust-jacket is
irresistible, although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you
might end up with a rather dull book. You soon become engrossed in some book or
other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spend too
much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment
without buying a book, of course. This opportunity to
escape the realities of everyday life is, 1 think, the main attraction of a
bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music
shop is very much like a bookshop. You can wander round such places to your
heart's content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the
inevitable greeting: "Can I help you, sir?" You needn't buy anything you
don't want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you
have finished browsing. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. Of
course, you may want to find out where a particular section is, but when he has
led you there, the assistant should retire discreetly and look as if he is not
interested in selling a single book. You have to be careful not to be attracted
by the variety of bonks in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking
for a book on, say, ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest
best-selling novel and perhaps a book about brass-rubbing—something which had
only vaguely interested you up till then. This volume on the subject, however,
happened to be so well illustrated and the part of the text you read proved so
interesting, that you just had to buy it. This sort of thing can be very
dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of
time wandering from section to section. Book-seller must be both
long-suffering and indulgent. There is a story which well illustrates this. A
medical student had to read a text-book which was far too expensive for him to
buy. He couldn't obtain it from the library and the only copy he could find was
in his bookshop. Every afternoon, therefore, he would go along to the shop and
read a little of the book at a time. One day, however, he was dismayed to find
the book missing from its usual place and was about to leave when he noticed the
owner of the shop beckoning to him. Expecting to be told off, he went towards
him. To his surprise, the owner pointed to the book, which was tucked away in a
comer, "I put it there in case anyone was tempted to buy it," he said, and left
the delighted student to continue his reading.

单选题According to the first paragraph, what evidence is there that crows have interested people for a long time?
单选题The idea of public works projects as a device to prevent or control depression was designed as means of creating job opportunities for unemployed workers and as a "pump priming" device to aid business to revive. It was conceived during the early year as of the New Deal Era (1933-1937). By 1933, the number of unemployed workers had reached about 13 million. This meant that about 50 million people-about one third of the nation-were without means of support. At first, direct relief in the form of cash or food was provided for these people. This made them recipients (接受者) of government charity. In order to remove this stigma (耻辱) and restore to the unemployed some measure of respectability and human dignity, a plan was devised to create governmentally sponsored work projects that private industry would not or could not provide. This would also stimulate production and revive business activity. The best way to explain how this procedure is expected to work is to explain how it actually worked when it was first tried. The first experiment with it was the creation of the Works Project Administration(WPA.. This agency set up work projects in various fields in which there were many unemployed. For example, unemployed actors were organized into theater projects; orchestras were organized for unemployed musicians, teaching projects for unemployed teachers, and even writers' projects for unemployed writers. Unemployed laborers were put to building work or maintaining roads, parks, playgrounds, or public buildings. These were all temporary "work relief" projects rather than permanent work opportunities. More substantial work projects of a permanent nature were organized by another agency, the Public Works Administration(PWA.. This agency undertook the planning of construction of schools, houses, post offices, dams and other public structures. It entered into contracts with private construction firms to erect them, or it loaned money to local or state governments which undertook their construction. This created many jobs in the factories producing the material as well as in the projects themselves, and greatly reduced the number of the unemployed. Still another agency which provided work projects for the unemployed was the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC.. This agency provided job opportunities for youths aged 16 to 20 to work in national parks or forests clearing land, guarding against fires, building roads, or doing other conservation work. In the event of a future depression, the federal government might revive any or all of the above methods to relieve unemployment and stimulate business.
