20、 single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET. 20 Only two years ago, a report that two-thirds of leading American universities had dropped the Shakespeare requirement for English majors in favor of courses on popular culture and gender studies prompted worries that the
21、 playwright regarded by many left- wing ideologues as the quintessential Dead White Male was becoming a has- been, a victim of the commissars of political correctness and willfully watered-down curriculums. Today, happily, its clear that such reports of Shakespeares demise were vastly exaggerated. S
22、hakespeare is still the most produced playwright in 1990s America, and in England he was recently voted in one BBC poll “the Briton of the Millennium. “ There are replicas of the Globe Theater in London and Tokyo, and in Germany his birthday prompts an annual celebration. As the scholar Jonathan Bat
23、e(“The Genius of Shakespeare“)points out, the Bard has become “a world genius“ with a “cross-cultural appeal“ that defies both the debunking of academic radicals and the stuffy canonization of traditionalists. “ Shakespeare in Love“ a witty new movie that works an improvisation on the playwrights li

Alicia Silverstone will soon star in Kenneth Branaghs new musical adaptation of
26、 “ Loves Labours lost“ , “while Ethan Hawke will tackle a “Hamlet“ set in the corporate world of the 90s. Certainly the fact that Shakespeare is a brand name, one who neither demands royalties nor contests rewrites, has something to do with his current revival. Yet at the same time there is a latent
27、 power to his work that has allowed successive generations of directors, critics and actors to reinvent him continually in their own image and to find new ways(some profound, some forced, some obviously silly)of pointing up his relevance. Restoration critics emphasized his role as a dramatic playwri
28、ght who addressed public and political issues. Romantics portrayed him, romantically, as the poet of melancholy and love. And modernists have stressed the difficulty of his work, its layered, contradictory meanings. 21 From the passage we can deduce that_. ( A) Shakespeare has offered a great herita

The medium is a vehicle, a tool, or a container for holding information; the information itself is the thing of value. Three popular categories of in
35、formation media are paper, film, and electronic storage devices. The media choice must not be viewed as a choice among these three, however, it must be viewed as an opportunity to select from a multitude of media possibilities in combinations that build effective systems. In many instances the perso
36、n responsible for information-resource management is not the person who determines the medium in which information will be created, in such a case, the manager of a firms information resources faces a challenge in making a significant contribution to the organizations objectives. For effective manag
37、ement of information resources, media conversion may be necessary. Examples include keying or scanning paper documents to convert them to electronic media. Other processes convert electronic media from one format to another. For example, disk files created on one system may not be compatible with an
38、other system. Various hardware and software combinations can be used to convert files to formats that equipment will accept. For information generated within organizations, this necessity of making systems compatible may be eliminated by cooperative planning. However, very little control can be exer
39、cised over the media used to generate information that comes to your organization from the outside. The medium for information may be selected to satisfy a need that exists when information is created and communicated. For example, a paper record may be created because of its portability and because
40、 no special equipment is necessary for later references to that information; electronic transmission may be selected because it is the fastest means of communicating information. A firm may use electronic mail because a network already exists for on-line computer communication. The additional applic
41、ation may cost less than postage to mail paper memos. 26 Which of the following can best sum up the passage? ( A) Media Selection in Managing Information Resources. ( B) The Importance and Necessity of Media Conversion. ( C) Three Categories of Information Media. ( D) Various Means of Communicating
42、information. 27 The first paragraph aims to tell the reader_. ( A) the importance of information-resource management ( B) the relationship between the medium and information ( C) the great variety of media for holding information ( D) the numerous resources of information 28 According to the author,
43、 _. ( A) paper is the best storage device ( B) people have a choice of different information media ( C) it is better to let the person responsible for information-resource management determine the medium ( D) the manager should build an effective system by selecting a good combination of different m
44、edia 29 For effective management of information resources, the manager should_. ( A) convert all paper documents to electronic media ( B) make media conversion when necessary ( C) control the media used to generate information both inside and outside his organization ( D) use one format in processin

47、lowed its use as a dance drug. 14 deaths have so far been attributed to the drug in Britain although it is possible that other drugs contributed to some of those deaths. While it is true that all drugs by their very nature change the way in which the body reacts to its environment and are therefore
48、potentially dangerous, it is still unclear whether casual use of Ecstasy is as dangerous as authorities believe. What is certain is that the drug causes distinct changes to the body which, unless understood, may lead to fatal complications in certain circumstances. In almost all cases of MDMA relate
49、d deaths in Britain, overheating of the body and inadequate replacement of fluids have been noted as the primary causes of death. Yet in the US, studies appear to implicate other causes. It seems that normal healthy people are unlikely to die as a result of taking MDMA, but people with pre-existing conditions such as a weak heart or asthma may react in extreme ways and are well advised not to take it. Not all physical problems associated with the drug ar
