German company was concerned about talks in Moscow trying to sell some 100 million dollars worth of equipment to a Russian State companyTalks went smoothly but differences remainedSo Martin Bayer himself, the CEO of the German Company, decided to come to Moscow to head the talksBesides caring about his business, the CEO wanted to go to Russia to hunt bears Martin Bayer was one of the greatest hunters of our time (and the Russians knew about it)He went to the Sahara more than hundred times and hunted lions, crocodiles; he hunted polar bears in the North Pole and tigers in the rain forests of IndiaBut he had never hunted Russian bears So the Russians decided to organize a bear hunt for MrBayer to sweeten the talksThis wasnt a simple taskSome people in the west still believe that bears may be found and seen everywhere in Russian cities just like squirrels may be seen in our backyardsThis is not trueThe closest place one may find bears in the wild is maybe 2,500 miles away from MoscowHowever, a solution was quickly foundThe Russian businessmen went to Moscow Circus（马戏团）and for $2,000 bought a very old bearThis bear used to amuse and amaze audiences in many countries for 30 years, but got and looked too old, and was retired “Be careful, the Russian bears are very dangerous, and frightening,” they told to MrBayer“If compared to the Russian bears, your African lions are nothing more than harmless cats” The bear was brought to a forest 50 miles from Moscow and was left thereMrBayer was told that bears were plentiful in that forest and that many cattle and even people had been eaten in the surrounding villages Meanwhile, an 18-year old female drove through the forest on a motorcycle and suddenly saw a bear (no bears had been seen in those places for 200 years)She was frightened, fell, left her helmet and her motorcycle and ran away MrBayer was excited and ready to huntThis could become the most successful part of his extraordinary hunting experienceThe next moment MrBayer saw a bear in a helmet driving on a motorcycle through the forest in front of himThe bear had a happy expression on his face, as he was doing something he had been doing in the circus for 30 years: circling on a motorcycle! MrBayer lives in a private mental institution near Hamburg happily ever afterThe equipment was never sold to RussiaIt was sold to Iraq instead74Why did the Russians invite MrBayer to hunt bears?ARussian bears are famous for their crueltyBThey managed to find a bear for huntingCThey expected the trade to be successfulDThere was a bear in Moscow Circus75Why did the Russians say “Be careful, the Russian bears are very dangerous and frightening”?ATo tell MrBayer that many people had been killed by bearsBTo make MrBayer feel the hunting really challengingCTo warn MrBayer to mind his safety while huntingDTo tell MrBayer that the bear is really dangerous76We can infer from the last paragraph that _AMrBayer has gone mad Bthe bear injured him badlyChe has worked in a mental institution since thenDthe trade has gone smoothly between Russian and Iraq77Which would be the best title of the passage?AMrBayer, a Brave HunterBRussian Bears, Dangerous AnimalsCDont Hun
