A. you like working with children B. you have a strong team spirit C. you lack teaching experience D. you can only speak English D Art museums are places where people can learn about various cultures .The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today , however ,perform quite a different role .Unlike most art museums ,the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public .These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall. People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales— it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something ,while the second tells you the success of a sale. One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits .Unlike the average art museum visitors ,design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled .This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why massproduced products work and look as they do ,and how design has improved the quality of our lives .Art museum exhibits ,on the other hand ,would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something between their understanding. In recent years ,several new design museums have opened their door ,Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas .London’s Design Museum ,for example ,shows a collection of mass produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fishtins .The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums ,and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life. 13 . Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they . A. show more technologically advanced products B. help increase the sales of products C. show why the products have sold well D. attract more people than store windows do 14. The author believes that most design museum visitors .

A. are not as strict as those to art museums B. are not aimed to interest the public C. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitors D. often contain precious exhibits 第二节(共 5小题,每小题 2分,满分 10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 选项中有两项为多余选项。 16 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat。 when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view. The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 17 . The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 18 It included such items as automobile sand new houses. By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction- the feeding, fort, safety, and transportation of the human body- this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation tr ips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 19 On this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their ine increases, or will they continue。
