citizens of venice developed a unique culture one in which the hiding of the identity in daily life became extremely important to daily activity. a mask can hide the wearers identity. there were things to do, people to see, and perhaps you might not want others to know what deals you were making.in addition, the masks served an important social purpose. masked, a servant could be mistaken for a nobleman (贵族) and a nobleman could be a servant. state policemen and officers could question citizens without fear of their true identity being discovered (and citizens could answer without fear of punishment). for with no faces, everyone had voices.however, the city fell into a state of moral decay (道德败坏), which caused a huge increase in crime. as a result, the wearing of masks in daily life was forbidden and limited only to certain months of the year. eventually, venetian masks appeared again as the symbol of venetian carnival a gathering of masked people in the 15th century. the streets of venice carnival were full of people in masks; no difference could be made between the noble and the common people. generally, the costume worn was a cloak (斗篷) with a long-nosed mask.originally, mask-makers used two different methods, the first method was to combine glue and paper strips to form the shape of the mask. these masks were generally designed to be held by a stick and only to cover the eyes. in order to create full-face masks, the artists used clay (黏土) to produce the masks.the original masks were symbolic and simple. over time, masquerade masks became more and more complex. venetian masks are characterized by their beautiful designs, featuring bright colours such as gold or silver and the use of complex decorations.colour was an important part of the design. bright blues, reds, yellows, oranges and greens were the most common choices. generally, men would wear darker colours while women would wear lighter ones.since the late 20th century, masquerade masks have become part of the artistic and craft-making culture of italy as well as other countries. the masquerade mask is not only a historic and traditional parts of culture, but it is also a tourist attraction in modern times. 49. this text is mainly about the _.a. history and development of the venetian masks.b. origin of the venetian carnival.c. symbol of the venetian culture.d. development of

cathy. cathy loved just about every living thing that i kept on my small mississippi farm, even my sometimes bad-tempered donkey. cathy would talk to the pigs, cows and cats as if they were her neighbors.and she was just crazy about birds, all kinds of birds. she would clap（拍）her hands to make the sparrow sing and laughed every time she did it. shed move quietly up to a sparrow on a small tree just to get a better look, her face shining with childlike expression at one of gods simple wonders. i say childlike for a reason. though cathy was in her fifties, she had the mind of an eight-year-old child, disabled since birth. but what she lacked on the one hand she made up for on the other hand. she loved the world deeply. she would lay her head against the left side of my chest, right over my heart, and rest it there ever so gently, just long enough for me to feel a peacefulness flow into me. and thats how i ended my talk that cold december day at her funeral(葬礼), with my hand on the left side of my chest. i kept it there for as long as i could before i had to wipe away my tears. cathy had been diagnosed (诊断) with cancer just that fall. it couldnt be treated, the doctors told us. by christmastime cathy was so weak that she could scarcely get out of bed. i would go over to her sisters house where she was staying and play christmas songs on my guitar for her, and her sweet shaking voice sang that beautiful and hopeful song, “sleep in heavenly peace”. two days later she was gone. after the funeral, winter settled in. it would be longer and colder without cathy. i was busy with my work on the farm. even the animals seemed to miss her. one bitterly cold january morning i was about to go into town on business with my mother. i was on my way out the door to take the truck when i was surprised to see a small bird, sitting on the floor of our glassed-in front porch (门廊), a sparrow. i couldnt tell how it had gotten there. the porch doors were closed tight to keep out the winter wind. i bent down and put out my hand. the bird jumped into my palm (手掌), a soft little flow of warmth. “let me take you outside so that youll be free,” i said. i cupped it gently, went outside and opened my hands. the sparrow stayed still. “what are you doing there?” mom called from the truck. “a bird. i just found it on the porch,” i said. “thats strange,” she said. “let me see.” so i carried it over to her and held it out. mom gently felt its head. “put your hand out flat,” i whispered. the little bird climbed right into moms palm. we stood like that for a while then i took the sparrow back. “fly away now little bird,” i said. but it did the strangest thing. it flew inside the truck, resting on the floorboards at moms feet. i picked it up again and moved it into the air. the bird cried, flying briefly above my head. i thought it was going to fly away, but instead it came down and landed on the left side of my chest, next to my heart, the place where cathy always rested her head and said she loved me. the sparrow stayed there for just a moment, but it was long enough for me to feel that familiar warmth of peace. with that, the sparrow took flight, disappearing among the trees.55. what animal might cathy love most according to the text?a. donkeysb. pigsc. catsd. birds56. by the underlined sentence in paragraph 2, the author intends to say
