B As you move around your home，take a good look at the things you have。

It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven。

Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.
Now, perhaps, more than ever before，people are wondering what life is all about，and what it is for。

Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives，leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes。

Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them。

Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year。

One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an
international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs，leaving their two children with a nanny。

Most evenings Daniel wouldn’t get home until eight or nine o’clock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.
Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales。

“I always wanted to have a farm then，" says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. It's taken some getting used to, but it’s been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it’s made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier。

Liz，however，is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy my job，even though it was hard work and long hours. I’m not really a country girl，but I suppose I’m gradually getting used to looking after the animals。

One thing I do like, though，is being able to see more of my children。

My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all。

”
45．The passage tells us that .
A．people seldom work long hours to make money
B．people hardly buy more things than necessary
C．people are sure everything they own is in the right place
D．people realize there is more to life than just making money
46．Daniel and Liz both agree that the move to the farm ____.
A．was easy to organize B．has improved family life
C．was extremely expensive D．has been a total success
47．What does the author mean by saying “the long hours work culture to make
more money is eating up their lives” in the
second paragraph?
A．People work long hours to earn their living.
B．To make more money through hard work is the aim of people’s life.
C．Long hours of hard work occupy too much of people’s life。

D．People spent too much time and money eating meals.
C
At first all films were in black and white, but in 1932 the first color film was made。

This proved as unpopular as talking films had done in the late 1920's。

It was not until 1938 that a full length color film was made, and the success of this film made producers everywhere change from black and white to color。

This first full—length color film was
translated into ten different languages and made Hollywood the main center of film industry.
In the early days of the cinema，other countries had also film industries。

Very good films were made in Sweden, Britain, Russia and France. However, because Holleywood had so much money to spend, it kept its position as the world’s most important film center。

Film actors went to America because they knew they could get a lot of money for every film they made。

In 1918 Charlie Chaplin received ＄5 each day。

However，life was not always easy for the film actors. Newspapermen followed them everywhere，and after Charlie Chapine married for the fourth time he became so unpopular with the American public that he had to leave the country and live in Europe.

Which of the following is correct?
A. People liked the color film as soon as it was made.
B。

At first talking films were not popular.
C。

Color films were at first silence。

D. Talking films were all color films。

A. in Holleywood
B. in Sweden
C. by Charlie Chapine
D. in Britain
