(2017·重庆模拟)
I have always wondered at the passion many people have to meet the famous person. The prestige(名声)you acquire by being able to tell your friends that you know famous men proves only that you are yourself of small account. The celebrated develop a technique to deal with the persons they come across. They show the world a mask, often an impressive one, but take care to conceal their real selves. They play the part that is expected from them, and with practice learn to play it very well, but you are stupid if you think that this public performance of theirs corresponds with the man within.
I have been attached, deeply attached, to a few people. But I have been interested in men in general not for their own sakes, but for the sake of my work. I have not regarded each man as an end in himself, but as material that might be useful to me as a writer. I have been more concerned with the ordinary than with the famous. They are more often themselves. They have had no need to create a figure to protect themselves from the world or to impress it. Their qualities have had more chance to develop in the limited circle of their activity, and since they have never been in the public eyes it has never occurred to them that they have anything to conceal. They display their strangeness because it has never struck them that they are strange. And after all it is with the common run of men that we writers have to deal; kings, presidents, commercial leaders are from our point of view very unsatisfactory. To write about them is a venture that has often attracted writers, but the failure that has attended their efforts shows that such beings are too special to form a proper ground for a work of art. They cannot be made real. The ordinary are the writer’s richer field. Its unexpectedness, its miracle, its endless variety afford unending material. The great man is too often all of a piece; it is the little man that is a bundle of contradictory elements. You never come to the end of the surprises he has in store for you. For my part I would much sooner spend a month on a desert island with a taxi driver than with a prime minister.
1. According to the first paragraph, the celebrated are.
A. worth meeting passionately
B. of small account to your friends
C. good at hiding their real selves
D. born with the nature of lying
2. Which of the following is NOT the reason why the ordinary are more often themselves according to the author?
A. They don’t need to protect themselves from being hurt by the world.
B. They develop their characters in the limited circle of their activity.
C. They have never been the focus of attention publicly.
D. They have never realized that their behavior is strange.
3. Why do writers prefer writing about the ordinary to writing about the celebrated?
A. There are richer materials in the ordinary than in the celebrated.
B. The celebrated are more difficult to be satisfied than the ordinary.
C. The ordinary are often more contradictory than the celebrated.
D. The celebrated are more different from each other than the ordinary.
4. The author develops this article mainly by .
A. exampling
B. comparison
C. reasoning
D. definition

Equal Opportunities for Quality Education
It is widely accepted that human resources are playing a very important part in China’s economic growth. Education, which greatly affects the qualities of human resources, has undergone rapid developments in recent years.
Last year, China had more than 2 million graduates from colleges or universities, and another 3. 5 million graduates from vocational schools.
Despite the great developments in education, in the era of reform, lawmakers exposed and criticized many problems in the developments of education, which trouble, if not anger, the public.
One of the most glaring problems is that in China’s vast rural areas, even the most basic education is not available to some children. And elsewhere, even if they have access, the facilities available for them are still a far cry from those in cities.
Official statistics show that at the primary stage, there are a big number of rural students who drop out of school because they do not have the money to pay their tuition fees.
At college level, there have been some big increases in tuition fees over the last few years. So, some students from rural areas have also been forced to abandon their dreams.
China has a long tradition of valuing education and Chinese parents are willing to save each and every penny to support their children’s schooling. But in a nation of more than 1. 3 billion people, upholding equal opportunities in the education sector is a discouraging task.
The central government is dedicated to quickening the development of the cause. It will cancel rural school fees and offer the children in poverty-stricken areas financial support so they can all enjoy the equal education and complete the nine-year compulsory schooling programme.
The most important part of the issue lies in the amount of cash put into it. On the other hand, it is more than an issue of fiscal input﹙财政投入﹚. The unbalanced distribution of resources between rural and urban schools risks slowing down the future of China’s vast rural areas, where two thirds of the population live.
Education is undoubtedly the long-term lifeline of citizens. Good education promotes more than personal well-being or the fulfillment of individual ambition. As individual ability grows, the nation will become stronger and more prosperous.
Equality in education is vital to the sustainability of our nation’s economic progress. It has a big impact on every citizen’s quality of life, so the government must do all it can to achieve this goal.
