18、y wealthy English Baron Fitzgerald had only one child, a son, who understandably was the apple of his eye. His wife died when the child was in his early teens. So Fitzgerald devoted himself to fathering the kid. Unfortunately the son died in his late teens. Meanwhile, Fitzgeralds wealth greatly incr
19、eased. He spent a lot on art works of the masters. Later Fitzgerald himself became seriously ill. Before his death, he had carefully prepared his will as to how his wealth would be settled-to sell his entire collection at an auction(拍卖） . Because of the large quantity and high quality of his collect
20、ion, a huge crowd of possible buyers gathered for the auction. Many of them were museum directors and private collectors eager to bid（出价） . Before the auction, the art works were shown, among which was a painting of Fitzgeralds son by an unknown artist. Because of its poor quality, it received littl
21、e attention. When it was time for the auction, the auctioneer gaveled（敲槌）the crowd to attention. First the lawyer read from Fitzgeralds will that the first art work to be auctioned was the painting of his son. The poor-quality painting didnt receive any bidders. . . except one-the old servant who ha
22、d served the son and loved him, and who for emotional reasons offered the only bid. As soon as the servant bought the painting for less than one English pound, the auctioneer stopped the bidding and asked the lawyer to read again from the will.

25、ke over his wealth B 2004 was a good year for American farmers. Total farm earnings were estimated (估 计) at 74,000 million dollars for the year. That means the average(平均的 ) farm income was about 71,000 dollars, or a gain of about three percent from the year before. However, the growth in earnings d
26、epended on the size of the farm. Large farms had increased earnings of six and one-half percent. Smaller farms saw growth in earnings of less than three percent. Part of American farm income came from the federal ( 联 邦 的 ) government. The Department of Agriculture reports that about thirty-nine perc
27、ent of farmers accepted some kind of aid(援助 ), or subsidy in 2003. Reports say the total amount of farm aid paid last year is estimated at 15,700 million dollars. An organization called the Environmental Working Group keeps information on all farm subsidies paid by the government. The group examined
28、 subsidies between 1995 and 2003. It says ten percent of farms received seventy-two percent of government subsidies during that nine-year period. The group says big farms that are organized as corporations ( 公司 ) or partnership businesses receive the most aid. It says the big farms receive more aid,
29、 even when they are more profitable(盈利的 ) than smaller family farms. Critics(评论家 ) say farm subsidies are costly and wasteful. Critics also note that subsidies go only to growers of widely traded crops, like corn, cotton, wheat and soybean. But many farmers, including the ones who only receive a few
30、 thousand dollars a year, support the subsidy programs. They say small farming communities in states like Minnesota, Nebraska, and South Dakota would not survive without the aid. 44.

32、following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. All American farmers can get the government aid. B. Only big farms can get the government aid. C.

A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics, and war
45、. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions, and psychology. 57. In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors or of people very different from our own can be provided by
46、art. In short, art express the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offer us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books. 58. In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective: it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first trul
