We work together, in fact. However, 1 am quite ready to enter your name, should your manners be what a really affectionate mother requires. Do you smoke? Jack Worthing: Well, yes, 1 must admit 1 smoke. Lady Brackn.ell: 1 am glad to hear it. A man should always have an occupation of some kind. There are far too many idle men in London as it is. How old are you? J ack worthing: Twenty-nine. Lady Bracknell: A very good age to be married at. 1 have always been of opinion that a man who desires to get married should know either everything or nothing. Which do you know? J ack worthing Cafter some hesitation): 1 know nothing, Lady Bracknell. Lady Bracknell: 1 am pleased to hear it. 1 do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance. Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit; touch it and the bloom is gone. The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square. What is your income? J ack W orthing: Between seven and eight thousand a year. Lady Bracknel1 (makes a note in her book): In land, or in investments? J ack Worthing: ln investments, chiefly. Lady Bracknell: That is satisfactory. What between the duties expected of one during one s lifetime, and the duties exacted from one after ones death, land has ceased to be either a profit or a pleasure. It gives one position, and prevents one from keeping it up. That s al1 that can be said about land. Jack Worthing: 1 have a country house with some land, of course, attached to it, about fifteen hundred acres, 1 believe; but 1 don t depend on that for my real income. In 162 提醒：电大资源网已将该科目2010年到2019年1月的历届试题 整合、汇总、去重复、按字母排版，形成题库，方便大家复习 fact. as far as 1 can make out, the poachers are the only people who make anything out of it. Lady Bracknell: A country house! How many bedrooms? Well. that point can be cleared up afterwards. You have a town house, 1 hope? A girl with a simple. unspoiled nature, like Gwendolen, could hardly be expected to reside in the country. Questions 16-18 (9 polnts) 16. 1n this extract, Lady Bracknell is nterviewing Jack Worthing on his suitability as a possible一一一一一一 A. investment advisor B. live-in domestic helper C. husband for her daughter 17.

Please note: This reading task will be relevant to the writing task in Part 111. Thief He is waiting at the airline ticket counter when he first notices the young woman. She has glossy black hair pulled tightly into a knot at the back of her head-the man imagines it loosed and cascading to the small of her back-and carries over the shoulder of her leather coat a heavy black purse. She wears black boots of soft leather. He struggled to see her face-she is ahead of him in line-but it is not until she has bought her ticket and turns to walk away that he realizes her beauty, which is pale and dark-eyed and ull-mouthed, and which quickens his heartbeat. She seems aware that he is staring at her and lowers her gaze abruptly. The airline clerk interrupts. The man gives up looking at the woman-he thinks she may be about twenty-five-and buys a round trip, coach class ticket to an eastern city. His flight leaves in an hour. To kill time, the man steps into one of the airport cocktail bars and orders a scotch and water. While he sips it he watches the flow of travelers through the terminal-including a remarkable number, he thinks, of unattached pretty women dressed in fashion magazine clothes-until he catches sight of the black-haired girl in the leather coat. She is standing near a Travelers Aid counter, deep in conversation with a second girl, a blonde in a cloth coat trimmed with gray fur. He wants somehow to attract the brunette s attention, to invite her to have a drink with him before her own flight leaves for wherever she is traveling, but even though he believes for a moment she is looking his way he cannot catch her eye from out of the shadows of the bar. ln another instant the two women separate; neither of their directions is toward him. He orders a second scotch and 明rater. When next he sees her, he is buying a magazine to read during the flight and becomes aware that someone is jostling him. At first he is startled that anyone would be so close as to touch him, but when he sees who it is he musters a smile. Busy place, , he says. She looks up at him-ls she blushing? -and an odd grimace across her mouth and vanishes. She moves away from him and joins the crowds in the terminal. The man is at the counter with his magazine. but when he reaches into his back pocket for his wallet the pocket is empty. When uld 1 have lost it? he thinks. His mind begins enumerating the credit cards, the c 161 提醒：电大资源网已将该科目2010年到2019年1月的历届试题 整合、汇总、去重复、按字母排版，形成题库，方便大家复习 What is he to do? He still has his ticket, safely tucked inside his suitcoat-he reaches into the jacket to feel the envelope, to make sure. He can take the f1ight, call someone to pick him up at his destination-since he cannot even afford the bus fare-conduct his business and f1y home. But in the meantime he wil1 have to do something about the lost credit cards-call home, have his wife get the numbers out of the top desk drawer, phone the card companies-so difficult a process, the whole thing suffocating. What should he do? First: Find a policeman, te11 what has happened, describe the young woman; damn her, he thinks, for seeming to be attentive to him, to let herself stand so c10se to him, blush prettily when he spoke-and a11 the time she wanted only to steal from him. And her blush was not shyness but the anxiety of being caught; that was most disturbing of a11. Damned deceitful creatures. He wi11 spare the policeman the details 一justtell what she has done, what is in the wa11et. He grits his teeth. He wil1 probably never see his wa11et again. He is trying to decide if he should save time by talking to a guard near the x-ray machine when he is appa11ed-and elated一tosee the black-haired girl. (Ebony-Tressed Thief, the newsapers will say.) She is seated against a front window of the terminal, taxis and private cars moving sluggishly beyond her in the gathering darkness; she seems engrossed in a book. A seat beside her is empty, and the man occupies it. l ve been looking for you, he says. She glances at him with no sort of recognition.1 don t know you, she says. Sure you do. She sighs and puts the book aside.Is this a11 you characters think about-picking up gir1s like we were stray animals? What do you think 1 am? Y ou lifted my wa11et, , he says. He is pleased to have said lifted, , thinking it sounds more worldly than stole or took or even riPped 011. 1 beg your pardon? the girl says. 1 know you did-at the magazine counter. If youl1 just give it back, we can forget the whole thing. If you don t, then l 11 hand you over to the police. She studies him, her face serious.A11 right, she says. She pu11s the black bag onto her lap, reaches into it and draws out a wa11et. 168 提醒：电大资源网已将该科目2010年到2019年1月的历届试题 整合、汇总、去重复、按字母排版，形成题库，方便大家复习 He takes it from her.Wait a minute, , he says.This isn t mine.
