Usually when we hear the word "artist" we think of a person who paints pictures, but the word has a much wider meaning than that, for anyone who adds beauty to a thing has shown that he is an artist. In the publishing world, there are many artists besides the illustrators, as you can find if you trace the steps introducing a book.

After the author (who is an artist in the choice of ideas and words) has sold a manuscript. to the publisher, an editor goes over it. The work of editing involves artistic skill too, for the editor may know how to improve the author’s work by cutting and revising the manuscript. Then the editor looks over the manuscript. and decides how it may be best illustrated. The editor and a designer discuss how all the parts of the book the illustrations, words, paper, and binding--shall be put together so that the book best communicate the subject and the spirit which was intended by the author.

Illustrations are drawn which will not only emphasize without words things said in the story, but which will add information or ideas that cannot be put into words. When the illustrations and text are completely prepared they are sent to the printer who carefully, and often artistically, sets the type and prints the book.

Once the material has been printed, it is sent to the binder who makes the book into a unit for selling and reading. The binder, too, is an artist, for he makes use of special techniques to make the outside of the book attractive, as well as appropriate to the contents. Meanwhile, a sales staff is at work preparing advertisements to help sell the book.

How many steps in producing A book are mentioned in the passage?

A．4.

B．6.

When executives at Google went looking for Wall Street investment bankers to underwrite the company's massive initial public offering, they laid down strict terms of engagement: bring us new ideas on how to sell the deal to investors and save the usual political gamesmanship. But with such a huge payday at stake—an estimated $100 million in fees for handling the offering—would you expect all the big firms to play by the Google rules? Of course not. Just ask Goldman Sachs.

To win a chunk of the Google business, Goldman, the nation's premier investment bank, set free its CEO, Hank Paulson, to pull some strings. Paulson is one of Wall Street's best "call men", who can wave a Palm PDA full of connections when it's crunch time to bring home a deal. But News week has learned that Paulson tried to sidestep Google's orders by reaching out to one of Google's largest investors, Kleiner Perkins, the powerful venture-capital firm that was an early Google backer. The move helped doom Goldman's efforts to win the lead underwriting spot, which went instead to Credit Suisse First Boston and Morgan Stanley.

Paulson thought his best shot was John Doerr, one of Kleiner's top partners. Bad move. When word of Paulson's misstep got back to Google's top executives, Goldman was quickly bumped from the top of the short list. "The people at Google were such enthusiasts about the rules," said one executive who works at a rival Wall Street firm. "When they heard about this, they went ape." None of the parties involved—Google, Goldman Sachs or Doerr—would comment.

The two winners, CSFB and Morgan Stanley, managed to keep a low profile. John Mack, CSFB's famously well-connected chief executive, purposely stayed out of the bidding process for fear that he might tip the scales to another player, people with knowledge of the matter say. Meanwhile, new rules for Wall Street research analysts appear to have prevented Mary Meeker, Morgan Stanley's top Internet analyst, from playing a direct role, even though she and Doerr have done business together for years.

Goldman, meanwhile, can't blame its loss just on Paulson. People close to the deal say bankers for the firm bragged to Google about the Goldman name, and didn't generate enough ideas about how to sell shares to investors through an auction. "Their lack of marketing wit may have hurt them more than Paulson," said the executive from a rival firm. Sometimes, it really does pay to play by the rules.

What can be inferred from the first paragraph?

A．Google followed the rules of Wall Street.

B．Goldman Sachs disobeyed Google's rules.

C．Goldman Sachs followed Google's rules.

D．Big firms in Wall Street are afraid of Google.

We often hear advice from the dermatologists, " You should keep using sunscreen cream—just to be safe". More and more people are questioning about sunscream. Can sunscreen cream help protect me against melanomas? How safe are we in applying these chemical cocktails? Does it actually stop melanomas, the most dangerous type of skin cancer, from forming? As is known to all, sunscreen cream can protect the skin from the harmful effects of sun. The most important function of it is the prevention of skin cancer. A great number of American people like to use it. Surprisingly, this kind of cancer is increasing in incidence faster than any other cancer in the United States. It seems that sunscreen actually increases the risk of skin cancer. More and more health experts are taking a discommendable attitude to the application of sunscreen.

Researchers show that the earlier finding has many flaws and is unable to prove the exact function because they fail to take into account many exceptional cases. For instance, some people prefer to use sunscreen cream while going out. However, sunscreen cream users suffer from cancer more often. In fact, sunscreen cream allows people to remain exposed in the sun longer. People are likely to get skin problem under the sunshine for a long time. Besides, many people use the sunscreen cream in an inappropriate way. The sunscreen cream should be applied about half an hour before going outside, so the time is enough for the sunscreen to soak in and take effect. In fact, die protection of sunscreen will not last indefinitely. It should be reapplied at least every two hours when people stay outdoors for a prolonged period. After swimming, bathing, perspiring heavily, or drying off with a towel or handkerchief, you had better reapply it, too.

Millions of gallons of sunscreen cream are consumed each year. Only 5% of products overall met the criteria for safety and sunscreen effectiveness. Three of five brand-name products can not protect the skin from sun damage sufficiently or they contain hazardous chemicals, according to a report by Environmental Working Group (EWG).

It is time to change our misunderstanding now. In fact, besides the sunshine-preventing function , it also has the function of protecting our skin. We all know that the sun impacts collagen production in the skin, and without collagen, skin won't naturally maintain that plump, moist, youthful , wrinkle-free look . Without the protection of sunscreen cream, just a few minutes of daily sun exposure over the years can cause noticeable changes in skin. Sunscreen cream can protect our skin from these damaging rays, so that even if we do spend time outdoors, our face is less likely to give away our age.

What can we learn from the first paragraph?

A．Sunscreen cream is essential in people's life.

B．The dermatologists prefer to attribute the skin problems to sunshine.

C．People agree with the dermatologists' opinion on using sunscreen cream.

D．Sunscreen cream actually increases the risk of skin cancer.

One silly question I simply can't stand is "How do you feel". Usually the question is asked of a man in action--a man on the go, walking along the street, or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He'll probably say, "Fine, I'm all right." But "you've put a bug in his ear" — maybe now he's not sure. If you are a good friend, you may have seen something in his face, or his walk, that he did not realize that morning. It starts him worrying a little. First thing you know, he looks in a mirror to sec if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else, "How do you feel?"

Every question has its time and place. It's perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask "How do you feel?" if you're visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to make a train, or sitting at his desk working, it's no time to ask him that silly question.

When George Bernard Shaw, the famous writer of plays was in his eighties, someone asked him "How do you feel", Shaw put him in his place. "When you reach my age", he said, "either you feel all right or you're dead."
