17、rtisement in a newspaperC. the entertainment section of a magazine D. the program of a radioBAbout 150 years ago, a village church priest, Patric Bronte, in Yorkshire, England, had three lovely, intelligent daughters but his hopes fell entirely on the only male heir, Branwell, a youth with remarkabl

18、e talent in both art and literature.Branwells father and sisters saved their pennies to pack him off to Londons Royal Academy of Arts, but if art was his calling, he dialed a wrong number. Within weeks he hightailed it home, a penniless failure.Hopes still high, the family landed Branwell a job as a

19、 private tutor, hoping this would free him to develop his literary skills and achieve the success and fame that he deserved. Failure again. Still, the selfless sisters squelched their own goals, farming themselves out as teachers and governesses in support of their increasingly indebted brother, con

20、vinced the world must eventually recognize his genius. As failure multiplied, Branwell turned to alcohol, then opium, and eventually died as he had lived: a failure. So died hope in the one male but what of the three sisters?During Branwells last years, the girls published a book of poetry at their

21、own expense (under a pen name, for fear of reviewers bias against females). Even Branwell might have laughed: they sold only two copies.They didnt give up. Instead, they continued in their spare time, late at night by candlelight, to pour out their contained emotion, writing of what they knew best,

22、of women in conflict with their natural desires and social condition, in reality, less fiction than autobiography! And 19th century literature was transformed by Annes Agnes Grey, Emilys Wuthering Heights, and Charlottes Jane Eyre.But years of sacrifice for Branwell had eventually ruined their healt

23、h. Emily took ill at her brothers funeral and died within 3 months, aged 29; Anne died 5 months later, aged 30; Charlotte lived only to age 39. If only they had been nurtured instead of sacrificed.No one remembers Branwells name, much less of his art or literature, but the Bronte sisters tragically

24、short lives teach us even more of life than literature.24.According to the passage, what can we learn from the story of Branwell?A. Gift is not necessarily a guarantee of success.B. Gift is a burden for a person.C. A persons success is largely due to the support of his family.D. Too many choices may

25、 lead to success in none.25.What might lead to the tragedy of the three Bronte sisters?A. That to be a writer was a really tough road to go.B. The social prejudice against women in those days.C. Their poor family.D. The failure of their brother. 26. Which word is the closest in meaning to the underl

Intending his son for an artist or a writer.C. Putting all of his eggs in one male basket.D. Sacrificing too many

27、 pennies for his son. CThe wallet is heading for extinction. As a day-to-day essential, it will die off with the generation who read print newspapers. The kind of shopping, where you hand over notes and count out change in return, now happens only in the most minor of our retailers (零售商), like buyin

28、g a bar of chocolate or a pint of milk from a corner shop. At the shops where you spend any real money, that money is increasingly abstracted. And this is more and more true, the higher up the scale you go. At the most cutting-edge (前沿的) retail stores, Victoria Beckham on Dover Street, for instance,

29、 you dont go and stand at any kind of cash register when you decide to pay. The staff are equipped with iPads to take your payment while you relax on a sofa.Across society, the abstraction of the idea of cash makes me uneasy. Maybe Im just old-fashioned. But earning money isnt quick or easy for most

30、 of us. Isnt it a bit weird that spending it should happen in half a blink (眨眼) of an eye? Doesnt a wallet, that time-honored Friday-night feeling of pleasing, promising fatness, represent something that matters?But Ill leave the economics to the experts. What bothers me about the death of the walle

31、t is the change it represents in our physical environment. Everything about the look and feel of a wallet, the way the materials wear and tear and loosen with age, the plastic and paper and gold and silver, and handwritten phone numbers and printed cinema tickets, is the very opposite of what our world is becoming. The opposite of a wallet is a smartphone or an iPad. The rounded edges, cool glass, smooth and unknowable as a pebble. Instead of digging through pieces of paper, we move our fingers left and right. No more counting out coins. Show your wallet,
