[单项选择] Passage Four
When Abraham Lincoln was a lawyer in
rural Illinois, he and a certain judge in town once got to bantering with
one another about horse trading. The upshot of the discussion was that they
agreed that the next morning, at nine o’clock, they would meet in front of the
general store and make a trade. Each would bring a horse, unseen by anyone up to
that hour. If either backed out of the deal, he would forfeit $ 25. The money
from each man was held by the local banker.
The next morning, at
the appointed hour, the Judge, came up the dirt road, leading the sorriest
looking specimen of a horse ever seen in those parts of Illinois. The large
crowd viewing the spectacle burst out laughing, already knowing that Abe Lincoln
was bound to get the worst of the deal. A poorer horse just couldn’t exist
anywhere and still be walking.
A. the life of Abe Lincoln
B. a horse trade made by Abe Lincoln
C. a gambling in Illinois
D. Abe Lincoln’s philosophy

When I was still an architecture
student, a teacher told me, "We learn more from buildings that fall down than
from buildings that stand up.’ What he meant was that construction is as much
the result of experience as of theory. Although structural design follows
established formulas, the actual performance of a building is complicated by the
passage of time, the behavior of users, the natural elements—and unnatural
events. All are difficult to simulate. Buildings, unlike cars, can’t be
crash-tested.
The first important lesson of the World Trade
Center collapse is that tall buildings can withstand the impact of a large
jetliner. The twin towers were supported by 59 perimeter columns on each side.
Although about 30 of these columns, extending from four to six floors, were
destroyed in each building by the impact, initially both t
A. architecture is something more out of experience than out of theory
B. architecture depends just as much on experience as on theory
C. it is safer for people to live in old buildings
D. we learn not so much from our failures as from our success

When I began reading Catch-22, I
thought it was a farcical satire on life in the’ United States Army Air Force.
Later I believed that Mr. Heller’s target was modern war and all those who axe
responsible for waging it. Still later it seemed that he was attacking social
organization and anyone who derives power from it. But by the end of the book it
had become plain to me that it is no other phrase will do the human condition
itself which is the object of Mr. Heller’ an outraged fury and
disgust.
A reviewer must always keep an anxious eye on the
state of his currency. If he announces too many masterpieces he risks
inflation (though it is sometimes forgotten by some of us that the cowardice of
perpetual crabbing (挑剔) receives its own kind of punishment). It does not seem

A. a review of a film
B. a book about the U. S. Air Force
