19、t.A few years later, de Mille choreographed a ballet named Rodeo.

In the coming years, Oklahoma! would run for an incr

20、edible 2,212 performances, both around the nation and abroad. In 1955, the film version won an Academy Award.But the success of Oklahoma! didnt bring her much happiness.

21、 of Oklahoma!, I suddenly had unexpected success for a work I thought was only fairly good, after years of neglect for work I thought was fine. I began to think that perhaps my entire scale of values was untrustworthy. I talked to Martha.Martha was Martha Graham, perhaps the most influential dance c

22、horeographer of the 20th century.

And if you block it, it will never exist through any

24、other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions.

28、te you.(C)Having a job is great, I have learned. It means I can afford things such as a place to live and daily meals. And with an above-average job, I can afford a car and occasional overseas vacations. However, I also understand how difficult it is to have a below-average job, having had many of t

29、hem before. Its frankly pretty awful. Owning a car was out of the question I could barely afford to ride the subway. So, I decided to go to university and get a degree.Later, I emailed my details to every company and government institution with an online careers page. I even printed my resume and ha

30、nded it out in what seemed like hundreds of office buildings.One summer during university, my cousin and I helped out at my uncles business, fixing roofs, although the only thing I got out of that was back problems. That same year, I got a job at a plumbing (管道工程) company, which I was terrible at. I

31、t was no surprise when I was asked to leave that job after only four days.A lot of people today believe the problem of unemployment in my generation is our fault. Some accuse us of being lazy or feeling too entitled (有资格的). At the same time, some people accuse members of my generation of having a se

32、nse of “specialness” that has led us to believe we can all be astronauts, movie stars or singers if we put our minds to it. Also, a few of them think that we would all be happily employed if we would only learn trades or become software engineers, because those people make the most money.I realize t

33、hat not everyone can go into space, star in Hollywood movies or fill stadiums with fans, however. I also think not everyone can make a good electrician or design advanced computer software I know I cant. Everyone is good at something, but no one is good at everything. It took me hundreds of rejectio

34、n emails to realize that I had to focus on finding a job where I could actually be successful.And now, I finally have that job. All it took was several years of desperation, failure and an honest assessment of my personal value in the job market. Its not the best start, but its not bad for a start t

38、degree(D)On August 29th, as Hurricane Dorian tracked towards Americas east coast, Elon Musk, the boss of Tesla, an electric-car maker, announced that some of his customers in the storms path would find that their cars had suddenly developed the ability to drive farther on a single battery charge. Li

39、ke many modem vehicles, Mr. Musks products are best thought of as internet-connected computers on wheels. The cheaper models in Teslas line-up have parts of their batteries disabled by the cars software in order to limit their range. At the tap of a keyboard in Palo Alto, the firm was able to remove

40、 those restrictions and give drivers temporary access to the full power of their batteries.Mr. Musks computerized cars are just one example of a much broader trend. As computers and connectivity become cheaper, it makes sense to bake them into more and more things that are not, in themselves, comput

41、ers, creating an internet of things.Such a world will bring many benefits. Consumers will get convenience, and products that can do things non computerized versions cannot. Businesses will get efficiency, as information about the physical world that used to be uncertain becomes concrete and analyzab

42、le.In the long term, though, the most obvious effects will be in how the world works. Ever more companies will become tech companies; the internet will become everywhere. As a result, a series of unresolved arguments will spill over from the virtual world into the real one.Start with ownership. As M

43、r Musk showed, the internet gives firms the ability to stay connected to their products even after they have been sold, transforming them into something closer to services than goods. That has already made the traditional ideas of ownership unclear. When Microsoft closed its ebook store in July, for

44、 instance, its customers lost the ability to read titles they had bought (the firm offered refunds). That shifts the balance of power from the customer to the seller.Virtual business models will jar in the physical world. Tech firms are generally happy to move fast and break things. But you cannot r

45、elease the beta version (测试版)of a fridge. Apple, a smartphone maker, provides updates for its phones for only five years or so after their release; users of Android smartphones are lucky to get two. But goods such as washing machines or industrial machinery can have lifespans of a decade or more. Fi

46、rms will need to work out how to support complicated computerised devices long after their original programmers have moved on.Data will be another flashpoint. For much of the internet the business model is to offer free services that are paid for with valuable user data, collected with consent (同意)t

47、hat is half-informed at best. In the virtual world, arguments about what should be tracked, and who owns the resulting data, can seem airy and theoretical. In the real one, they will feel more urgent.Predicting the consequences of any technology is hard especially one as universal as computing. The

48、emergence of the consumer internet, 25 years ago, was met with starry-eyed optimism. These days the internets faults dominate the headlines. But the people have the advantage of having lived through the first internet revolution which should give them some idea of what to expect.32.From the passage

49、we can tell that Tesla can .A. drive faster than usual in extreme weatherB. adjust the range of its battery powerC. charge the battery at the tap of a keyboardD. operate when the battery is fully drained33.Which of the following is NOT an example of the “unresolved arguments” mentioned in the passag

54、ee, you select specific classes happening at specific times and you attend them.
