Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D._“Making money is a dirty game“, says the Institut
11、e of Economic Affairs, summing up the attitude of British novelists towards business. The IEA, a free market think-tank, has just published a collection of essays (The Representation of Business in English Literature) by five academics chronicling the hostility of the country“s men and women of lett
12、ers to the sordid business of making money. The implication is that Britain“s economic performance is retarded by an anti-industrial culture. Rather than blaming rebellious workers and incompetent managers for Britain“s economic worries. Then, we can put George Orwell and Martin Amis in the dock ins
13、tead. From Dickens“s Scrooge to Amis“s John Self in his 1980s novel Money, novelists have conjured up a rogue“s gallery of mean, greedy, amoral money-men that has alienated their impressionable readers from the noble pursuit of capitalism. The argument has been well made before, most famously in 198
14、1 by Martin Wiener. an American academic, in his English Culture and the Decline of the Industrial Spirit. Lady Thatcher was an admirer of Mr. Wiener“s, and she led a crusade to revive the “entrepreneurial culture“ which the liberal elite had allegedly trampled underfoot. The present Chancellor of t
15、he Exchequer, Gordon Brown, sounds as though he agrees with her. At a recent speech to the Confederation of British Industry, he declared that it should be the duty of every teacher in the country to “communicate the virtues of business and enterprise“. Certainly, most novelists are hostile to capit
16、alism, but this refrain risks scapegoating writers for failings for which they are not to blame. Britain“s culture is no more anti-business than that of other countries. The Romantic Movement. which started as a reaction against the industrial revolution of the 21st century, was born and flourished
17、in Germany, but has not stopped the Germans from being Europe“s most successful entrepreneurs and industrialists. Even the Americans are guilty of blackening business“s name. SMERSH and SPECTRE went our with the cold war, James Bond now takes on international media magnates rather than Rosa Kleb. Hi
18、s films such as Erin Brockovich have pitched downtrodden, moral heroes against the evil of faceless corporatism. Yet none of this seems to have dented America“s lust for free enterprise. The irony is that the novel flourished as an art form only after, and as a result of the creation of the new comm
19、ercial classes of Victorian England, just as the modern Hollywood film can exist only in an era of mass consumerism. Perhaps the moral is that capitalist societies consume literature and film to let off steam rather than to change the world.(分数:10.00)(1).In the first paragraph, the author introduces

23、rature WorldJoseph Rykwert entered his field when post-war modernist architecture was coming under fire for its alienating embodiment of outmoded social ideals. Think of the UN building in New York, the city of Brasilia, the UNESCO building in Paris, the blocks of housing “projects“ throughout the w
24、orld. These tall, uniform boxes are set back from the street, isolated by windswept plazas. They look inward to their own functions, presenting no “face“ to the inhabitants of the city, no “place“ for social interaction. For Mr. Rykwert, who rejects the functionalist spirit of the Athens Charter of
