    There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to friends who have travelled to the places. Or you can go and see a colour film. Or you can read travel books.
    It would seem that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective (主观的) account of travels which the author has actually made himself, if they are informative and have a good index (索引), then they can be useful to you when you are planning your travels. The second kind are those books whose purpose is to give a purely objective (客观的)description of things to be done and seen. If a well-read, cultured person has written such a book, then it is even more useful. It can be sorted as a selected guide book. The third kind are those books which are called "a guide" to some place or other. If they are good, they will, in addition to their factual information, give an analysis or an explanation. Like the first kind they can be inspiring and interesting. But their basic purpose is to help the reader who wishes to plan in the most practical way.
    Whatever kind of travel book you choose you must make sure that it does not describe everything as "wonderful", "excellent" or "magical". You must also note its date of publication because travel is a very practical affair and many things change quickly in the twenty-first century. Finally, you should make sure that the contents are well presented and easy to find.The following travel books may be of use when you plan your travels except （）.

    • A、the book written by some people who have had the same travel experience themselves
    • B、the book which tells you what is worth doing and seeing based on the facts
    • C、the book in which a lot of big adjectives are used to draw your attention
    • D、the book which offers you a lot of useful information like a tour guide

    In one day at a library, 64 people borrowed books. Twice as many people borrowed only a thriller as borrowed only a science fiction book. Three people borrowed a biography only and 11 people borrowed both science fiction and a thriller, but not a biography. The same number borrowed a biography and a thriller but no science fiction as borrowed one of each of the three types. Twenty-one people did not borrow a thriller. One more person borrowed a science fiction book and a biography book than borrowed a biography only.　　How many people borrowed a thriller only?

    正确答案： 28 people borrowed a thriller only.
    解析：
    (设三种书都借的人数为X, 那么既借传记又借惊险小说的人数也为X; 设既借传记又借科幻小说的人数为Y；设只借科幻小说的人数为Z，那么只借惊险小说的人数为2Z。根据题意可知：Y=4; Y+Z+3=21; 3Z+2X+Y+11+3=64, 故求出Z=14, 2Z=28.)

    What would Tina like to do in the future?
    A

    To be a book editor.

    B

    To produce a film.

    C

    To write a book.


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    根据…one of my dreams was to be a writer to write a novel that would become a best seller and a one in the world winning film可知，Tina希望将来能写出畅销书并被拍成电影。
    【录音原文】
    　　M: Tina White, some people describe you as the best magazine editor in the world and you are only in your 30s. Can you tell us how you started your amazing career?
    　　W: Well, when I was 20, still at college, I was asked to write a weekly column for a local paper. The paper wanted me to write about famous people, you know, their wonderful life styles, the sort of thing people like to read about. Instead, what I did was to concentrate on people who the general public didn’t know about, but who had something original to say.
    　　M: And you got away with it? Now, in the early stages, your family was important. How far did they influence your career choice?
    　　W: My father was a film producer and my childhood was spent around international actors and directors. So with such influences I should have become an actress, something my father would have loved. But I chose to be a journalist in spite of my family’s wishes. I think the biggest influence was my school, not so much the people, but the materials that gave me access to. The hours and hours spent in the library.
    　　M: From being a journalist, you then went on to become an editor, I understand the first magazine you edited Female Focus wasn’t much of a success.
    　　W: Well, I was the editor for a year and then I resigned, mainly because of disagreements with the owners. They were reluctant to change things, because they had faith that it would eventually make a profit. But when you think of it, the magazine had been losing millions of pounds a year before I became its editor. When I left, it was still losing money, but nothing like as much as previously. Also when I took over, it was selling around 650, 000 copies, that soon increased to 800, 000, so it was seriously all improvement.
    　　M: And now you are editing Woman’s World and you’ve made the best selling woman magazine ever. How do you make people want to read it?
    　　W: For some of my competitors, the most important point is what you put on the cover of your magazine, but they forget faithful readers look beyond that. The real challenge is how you encourage a reader to read a serious piece, how are we going to make an article that people want to read. You have to get their attention and nothing does that better than a very lively, even shocking opening.
    　　M: It is said that you work very hard because you don’t trust your employees.
    　　W: That was the case 5 years ago, when I was first appointed, it almost drove me mad. I knew I had the right ideas, for example, but I wasn’t able to carry them out because I didn’t have the brilliant writers I have now, or the fight staff to read our material when it came in. I had to read everything about 6 times and that was awful. It took me 4 years to put together the team I wanted and it would be very unfair to say I don’t trust them.
    　　M: Do you sometimes worry that you might lose your fame and wealth?
    　　W: Yes. When you work as an editor, you are praised today and criticized tomorrow. Of course it would be difficult to live without all the, well, material comforts I'm used to. But a smaller income is something I think I can cope with. It wouldn’t be the end of the world. Much more serious would be if the people I work with no longer admire my work and most of all, I wanted to stay that way.
    　　M: What about the future?
    　　W: Well. People often think I've planned my career very carefully. But in fact lots of things have happened by chance, lots of opportunities have come my way. As a youngster, one of my dreams was to be a writer to write a novel that would become a best seller and a one in the world winning film. Well, it may seem silly, but I still hope that will happen one day.
    　　M: Tina, thank you very much for joining us today.

    本题考查纯虚函数和抽象类，纯虚函数是在声明虚函数时被“初始化”为0的函数，包含纯虚函数的类为抽象类，抽象类足不能被实例化的，但是可以定义指向抽象类数据的指针变量，当派生类成为具体类后，就可以用这种指针指向派生类的对象，然后通过该指针调用虚函数，实现多态性的操作。所以本题答案为D。
