[单项选择]Wine buffs are like art collectors. Few can tell the difference between a well-made fake and the real thing. Yet whereas counterfeit art has been around for centuries, wine forgery is relatively new. It started in the late 1970s when the prices of the best wines—especially those from Bordeaux—shot up. Today, with demand from China fuelling a remarkable boom, counterfeiting is rife. By some estimates 5% of fine wines sold at auction or on the secondary market are not what they claim to be on the label.
The simplest technique is to slap the label of a 1982 Chàteau Lafite (one of the most prized recent vintages) onto a bottle of 1975 Lafite (a less divine year). Another trick is to bribe the sommelier of a fancy restaurant to pass on empty bottles that once held expensive wine, along with the corks.

Passage Three
Science is a dominant theme in our
culture. Since it touches almost every facet of our life, educated people need
at least some acquaintance with its structure and operation. They should also
have an understanding of the subculture in which scientists live and the kinds
of people they are. An understanding of general characteristics of science as
well as specific scientific concepts is easier to attain if one knows something
about the things that excite and frustrate the scientist. This
book is written for the intelligent student or lay person whose acquaintance
with science is superficial; for the person who has been presented with science
as a musty storehouse of dried facts; for the person who has been presented with
science as the production of gadgets; and for the person who views the
scientists as some sort of magician. A. cultural groups that are formed by scientists B. people whose knowledge of science is very limited C. the scientific community D. people who make good contribution to science
[单项选择] Passage 2
Most injures can be prevented, provided
a parent goes about it the right way. Mr. Grant was a skilled
and capable surgeon. His wife--intelligent, charming and a qualified nurse--had
suggested they see me about their 16-month-old son, Neville.
Mrs. Grant spoke first. "We’re both professional people, and I guess we’re
supposed to know more than most people. It hurts us to admit our little Neville
is such a problem." "He’s all over the house, climbing, handling
things he’s not supposed to be touching," Mr. Grant interrupted, "and we’re
afraid he’ll badly injure himself and it’ll be our fault." "Does
he have some understanding of the word ’ no’," I asked… "That’s
just it, we can’t be sure if he has or not. Sometimes he seems to understand,
but at other times he just doesn’t seem to mind when we say ’no’," the father
A. how the Grants worry about their 16-month-old son, Neville B. how to teach a child to understand the word "no" C. how to prevent a child from injuring himself D. the natural behaviors of a child
