When it was sold recently in New York for $ 27,000, the seller, Mr. Oliver Pitt, was asked to explain how the picture had come into his possession. Pitt said, “I didnt know it was so valuable. Im not an art expert. Photography is my hobby. I bought Fisherman in Italy in 1970 for $140. The picture was dirty, and I could see the artists signature. But anyway it wasnt the picture that I liked. I bought it because of the frame.“its a most unusual frame, made of tiny, silver sea-shells（贝壳）. They are set in such a way that they reflect （反射）perfect light onto the surface of a picture. I now have a photograph of my wife in that frame, and Ill never part with it.“When I returned to New York I showed the painting in its frame to a customs officer. I told him that I had paid $140 for it but admitted I didnt know its actual worth. The customs man valued it at $140, and I was asked to pay duty on that value. I did so, there and then.“Later, I took off the frame, and that uncovered Maveleones signature. My wife suggested in fun that the painting might be a valuable one; so I cleaned it and put it up for sale.”As a result of this explanation, Oliver Pitt had to appear in court. He was accused （指控） of knowingly making a false statement of the value of a picture so as to cheat the Customs Department.Pitt was not happy, “I told the truth as I knew then,” he said. “What else could I say?”And then the judge agreed with him. “The Customs Department is responsible (to blame),” he said, “for making a true valuation of goods brought into the country, so that the correct amount of duty may be charged. Mr. Pitt did not cause or try to cause the mistake that was made. He paid the duty that was demanded. If, now, the Customs Department finds that its valuation was not correct, it cannot be allowed to have another try. Pitt is not guilty(有罪).”40.

Pitts wife was regarded as an expert because of her wise suggestionC The modern sailing ship was developed by a man who never went to sea. He was Prince Henry of Portugal, the younger son of the Portuguese King and an English princess. Prince Henry lived in the fifteenth century. As a boy he became devoted to the sea, and he dedicated himself to improving the design of ships and the methods of sailing them. In 1416, when he was twenty-two, Henry founded a school for mariners, to which he invited everyone who could help him-Jewish astronomers, Italian and Spanish sailors, and Arab mathematicians and map makers who know how to use the crude compass of the day and could improve it.Henrys goal was to design and equip vessels that would be capable of making long ocean voyages without having to keep close to the shore. The caravel (多桅小帆船) ， which he helped design, carried more sails and was longer and slimmer than any ship then made, yet was tough enough to stand up against gales at sea. He also developed the carrack (宽身帆船), which was a slower ship, but one that was capable of carrying more cargo.The world woes credit to Prince Henry for the development of the craft that made oceanic exploration possible.

Archaeological(考古学的) finds trace the tradition back to the 6th century; it is supposed that the beginnings of papercutting were even a few centuries earlier. Papercuttings are used for religious(宗教的) purposes, for decoration (装饰)and as patterns(图案). Today, papercuttings are mainly used as decoration. They ornament walls, windows, doors, columns mirrors, lamps and lanterns in homes. They are also used for decoration on presents, and are given as presents themselves. They are of special importance at festivals. At the Spring Festival for example, entrances are decorated with papercuttings which are supposed to bring good luck.Parpercuttings are not produced by machine, but by hand. There are two kinds of paper cuttings; scissor (剪刀) cuttings and knife cuttings. Scissor cuttings are fashioned with scissors. Several pieces of paper- up to eight pieces-are fastened together. The motif(图形) is then cut with sharp, pointed scissors. Knife cuttings are fashioned by putting several layers (层) of paper on a relatively soft foundation consisting of a mixture of tallow (动物脂) and ashes. Following a pattern, the artist cuts the motif into the paper with a sharp knife which he usually holds vertically(垂直地. The advantage of knife cuttings is that considerably more papercuttings can be made in one operation than scissor cuttings.In the countryside, papercuttings are usually made only by women and girls. This used to be one of the skills that every girl was to master and that were often used to judge brides(新娘). Professional papercutting artists are, on the other hand, almost always men who have guaranteed (保证) incomes and work together in workshops.53. Papercuttings can be used for _.A. decoration B. decoration on presents C. presents D. all of the above54 The underlined word ornament means _. A. to be added to and make something beautiful B. to be used as C. to be cut in D. to be made on 55. Which is the best title of this passage? A. The ways of papercutting B. The reasons for papercutting C. The purposes of papercutting D.
