27、four choices marked A),B),C)and D).You should decideon the best choice and write your answers on the Answer Sheet.Passage oneQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.“Museum”is a slippery word.It first meant(in Greek)anything consecrated to the Muses:a hill,ashrine,a garden,a festival o

28、r even a textbook.Both Platos Academy and Aristotles Lyceum had amouseion,a muses shrine.Although the Greeks already collected detached works of art,manytemplesnotably that of Hera at Olympia(before which the Olympic flame is still lit)had collections ofobjects,some of which were works of art by wel

29、l-known masters,while paintings and sculptures in theAlexandrian Museum were incidental to its main purpose.The Romans also collected and exhibited art from disbanded temples,as well as mineral specimens,exotic plants,animals;and they plundered sculptures and paintings(mostly Greek)for exhibition.Me

30、anwhile,the Greek word had slipped into Latin by transliteration(though not to signify picture galleries,which were called pinacothecae)and museum still more or less meant“Musesshrine”.The inspirational collections of precious and semi-precious objects were kept in larger churches andmonasterieswhic

31、h focused on the gold-enshrined,bejewelled relics of saints and martyrs.Princes,andlater merchants,had similar collections,which became the deposits of natural curiosities:large lumps ofamber or coral,irregular pearls,unicorn horns,ostrich eggs,fossil bones and so on.They also includedcoins and gems

32、often antique engraved onesas well as,increasingly,paintings and sculptures.As theymultiplied and expanded,to supplement them,the skill of the fakers grew increasingly refined.At the same time,visitors could admire the very grandest paintings and sculptures in the churches,palaces and castles;they w

33、ere not“collected”either,but“site-specific”,and were considered an integralpart both of the fabric of the buildings and of the way of life which went on inside themand most of thebuildings were public ones.However,during the revival of antiquity in the fifteenth century,fragments ofantique sculpture

34、 were given higher status than the work of any contemporary,so that displays ofantiquities would inspire artists to imitation,or even better,to emulation;and so could be consideredMuses shrines in the former sense.The Medici garden near San Marco in Florence,the Belvedere and theCapitol in Rome were

35、 the most famous of such early“inspirational”collections.Soon they multiplied,and,gradually,exemplary“modern”works were also added to such galleries.In the seventeenth century,scientific and prestige collecting became so widespread that three or fourcollectors independently published directories to

36、museums all over the known world.But it was the age of第 5 页 共 10 页revolutions and industry which produced the next sharp shift in the way the institution was perceived:thefury against royal and church monuments prompted antiquarians to shelter them in asylum-galleries,ofwhich the Musee des Monuments

37、 Francais was the most famous.Then,in the first half of the nineteenthcentury,museum funding took off,allied to the rise of new wealth:London acquired the National Galleryand the British Museum,the Louvre was organized,the Museum-Insel was begun in Berlin,and theMunich galleries were built.In Vienna

38、,the huge Kunsthistorisches and Naturhistorisches Museums tookover much of the imperial treasure.Meanwhile,the decline of craftsmanship(and of public taste with it)inspired the creation of“improving”collections.The Victoria and Albert Museum in London was the mostfamous,as well as perhaps the larges

39、t of them.51.The sentence“Museum is a slippery word”in the first paragraph means that.A.the meaning of the word didnt change until after the 15th century.B.the meaning of the word had changed over the years.C.the Greeks held different concepts from the Romans.D.princes and merchants added paintings

40、to their collections.52.“the skill of the fakers grew increasingly refined”in the third paragraph means that.A.there was a great demand for fakers.B.fakers grew rapidly in number.C.fakers became more skillful.D.fakers became more polite.53.Painting and sculptures on display in churches in the 15th c

41、entury were.A.collected from elsewhere.B.made part of the buildings.C.donated by people.D.bought by churches.54.Modern museums came into existence in order to.A.protect royal and church treasures.B.improve existing collections.C.stimulate public interest.D.raise more funds.55.Which is the main idea

42、of the passage?A.Collection and collectors.B.The evolution of museums.C.Modern museums and their functions.D.The birth of museums.Passage twoQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.Most of us are taught to pay attention to what is saidthe words.Words do provide us with someinformation，

43、but meanings are derived from so many other sources that it would hinder our effectiveness asa partner to a relationship to rely too heavily on words alone.Words are used to describe only a small part第 6 页 共 10 页of the many ideas we associate with any given message.Sometimes we can gain insight into

44、 some of thoseassociations if we listen for more than words.We dont always say what we mean or mean what we say.Sometimes our words dont mean anything except“Im letting off some steam.I dont really want you topay close attention to what Im saying.Just pay attention to what Im feeling.”Mostly we mean

45、 severalthings at once.A person wanting to purchase a house says to the current owner，“This step has to be fixedbefore Ill buy.”The owner says，“Its been like that for years.”Actually，the step hasnt been like that foryears，but the unspoken message is“I dont want to fix it.We put up with it.Why cant y

46、ou？”The searchfor a more expansive view of meaning can be developed of examining a message in terms of who said it，when it occurred，the related conditions or situation，and how it was said.When a message occurs can also reveal associated meaning.Let us assume two couples do exactly thesame amount of

47、kissing and arguing.But one couple always kisses after an argument and the other couplealways argues after a kiss.The ordering of the behaviors may mean a great deal more than the frequency ofthe behavior.A friends unusually docile behavior may only be understood by noting that it was precededby sit

48、uations that required an abnormal amount of assertiveness.Some responses may be directly linked toa developing pattern of responses and defy logic.For example，a person who says“No！”to a serials ofcharges like“Youre dumb，”“Youre lazy，”and“Youre dishonest，”may also say“No！”and try tojustify his or her

49、 response if the next statement is“And youre good looking.”We would do well to listen for how messages are presented.The words，“It sure has been nice to haveyou over，”can be said with emphasis and excitement or ritualistically.The phrase can be said once orrepeated several times.And the meanings we

50、associate with the phrase will change accordingly.Sometimesif we say something infrequently it assumes more importance；sometimes the more we say something theless importance it assumes.56.Effective communication is rendered possible between two conversing partners，if.A.they use proper words to carry
