The humorous story is strictly a work of art--high and delicate (精美的) art--and only an artist can tell it; But no art is necessary in telling the comic and witty stories; anybody can do it. The art of telling a humorous story--I mean by word of mouth, not print--was created in America, and has remained at home.
The humorous story is told seriously; the teller does his best to hide the fact that he himself even suspects that there is anything funny about it; but the teller of the comic story tells you beforehand that it is one of the funniest things he has ever heard, then tells it with eager delight, and is the first person to laugh.
When he gets through, and sometimes, if he has had good success, he is so glad and happy that he will repeat the point of it and glance around from face to face, collecting applause (喝彩), and then repeat it again.
Which story takes the longest to tell？ ()
A．The humorous story.
B．The witty story.
C．The comic story.
D．All three take the same amount of time.

4 Assume today’s date is 15 May 2005.
In March 1999, Bob was made redundant from his job as a furniture salesman. He decided to travel round the world,
and did so, returning to the UK in May 2001. Bob then decided to set up his own business selling furniture. He
started trading on 1 October 2001. After some initial success, the business made losses as Bob tried to win more
customers. However, he was eventually successful, and the business subsequently made profits.
The results for Bob’s business were as follows:
Period Schedule D Case I
Trading Profits/(losses)
￡
1 October 2001 – 30 April 2002 13,500
1 May 2002 – 30 April 2003 (18,000)
1 May 2003 – 30 April 2004 28,000
Bob required funds to help start his business, so he raised money in three ways:
(1) Bob is a keen cricket fan, and in the 1990s, he collected many books on cricket players. To raise money, Bob
started selling books from his collection. These had risen considerably in value and sold for between ￡150 and
￡300 per book. None of the books forms part of a set. Bob created an internet website to advertise the books.
Bob has not declared this income, as he believes that the proceeds from selling the books are non-taxable.
(2) He disposed of two paintings and an antique silver coffee set at auction on 1 December 2004, realising
chargeable gains totalling ￡23,720.
(3) Bob took a part time job in a furniture store on 1 January 2003. His annual salary has remained at ￡12,600
per year since he started this employment.
Bob has 5,000 shares in Willis Ltd, an unquoted trading company based in the UK. He subscribed for these shares
in August 2000, paying ￡3 per share. On 1 December 2004, Bob received a letter informing him that the company
had gone into receivership. As a result, his shares were almost worthless. The receivers dealing with the company
estimated that on the liquidation of the company, he would receive no more than 10p per share for his shareholding.
He has not yet received any money.
Required:
(a) Write a letter to Bob advising him on whether or not he is correct in believing that his book sales are nontaxable.
Your advice should include reference to the badges of trade and their application to this case.

In contrast to the nonfunctional appeals of the fine arts, the first purpose of the applied arts is to serve some useful function. Lucy Lewis, a traditional potter from Acoma Pueblo in New Mexico, has applied a visually exciting surface decoration to her water jar, using the chewed end of a yucca spine to paint the fine lines. But the jar's main reason for being "however" is to hold water. Some of the people of Acoma, which may be the oldest continually inhabited city in the United States, still follow the old ways, carrying water for drinking, cooking, and washing up to their adobe homes from natural rock cisterns on the cliff walls below. The forms of their water jars are therefore designed to prevent spilling and to balance readily on one's head. The pots must also be light in weight, so Acoma water jars are some of the world' s thinnest-walled pottery. Interestingly, the languages of most Native American peoples do not include a word that means "fine art." While they have traditionally created pottery, basketry, and weaving with a highly sophisticated sense of design, these pieces were part of their everyday lives.
The applied art of pottery-making, or ceramics, is one of the crafts, the making of useful objects by hand. Other applied art disciplines are similarly functional. Graphic designers create advertisements, fabrics, layouts for books and magazines, logos for corporate identification, and so on; industrial designers shape the mass-produced objects used by high-tech societies, from cars, telephones, and teapots, to one of the most famous visual images in the world: the Coca- Cola bottle. Other applied arts include clothing design, interior design, and environmental design.
The water jar mentioned in the second paragraph can NOT be described as ______.
A．light in weight
B．made by a Native American
C．an example of fine art
D．an object to be used
The sources of our dreams are most commonly attributed to factors in our waking lives. Whether it be emotional challenges, stress in the workplace, relationship problems or a myriad of other possible factors, the thoughts and feelings created in our waking environments are believed to directly influence the content of our dreams. A particular dramatic or traumatic experience during the day would no doubt be encountered again in some form. or another during the night.
Just as important as actual events in the determination of the content of our dreams are the preexisting beliefs that we hold. If we encounter some kind of phenomena in our dreams, it is very likely that we already believed in the possibility of the phenomena before the dream. For example, if someone dreams of being abducted by aliens, it's very likely that, before the dream, he already believed in the existence of aliens. To the extent that dreams are direct reflections of our minds, they will reflect accurately what we believe and hold to be true.
The way that we act in dreams bears consideration as well. Oftentimes, our behavior. in our dreams reflects hidden desires for that type of behavior. in our waking lives. Someone who dreams of revenge may actually desire revenge in real life, and likewise someone who dreams of adventure night after night may be experiencing his mind playing out a desire for more excitement in his everyday life.
While the items encountered in our dreams are of great importance in the analysis of dreams, it must be recognized and understood that the same item in two different dreams can easily have entirely different meanings for the two dreamers. For example, a home in the dreams of an avid equestrian can signify comfort and relaxation, whereas the same home in the dreams of a hunter can represent excitement and challenge.
Nightmares are mentioned in paragraph 1 in order to______.
A．give an introduction to the main subject of the text
B．give an example of one particularly vivid type of dream
C．provide a justification for the study of dreams
D．illustrate the value of analyzing dreams
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
According to the dictionary definition of “create”, ordinary people are creative every day. To create means “to bring into being, to cause to exist”—something each of us does daily.
We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way. First this involves an awareness of our surroundings. It means using all of our sese to become aware of our world. This may be as simple as being aware of color and texture, as well as taste, when we plan a meal. Above all, it is the ability to notice things that others might miss.
A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things. I f we believe the expression, “There is nothing new under the sun,” the creativ ity is remaking or recombining the old in new ways. For example, we might do this by finding a more effective way to study or a better way to arrange our furniture, or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters to cr eate an unusual photograph.
A third part of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ide as, to apply them to achieve some new results. To think up a new concept is one thing; to put the idea to work is another.
These three parts of creativity are involved in all the great works of genius, but they are also involved in many of our day to day activities.
