Thomas Jefferson, who died in 1826, looms ever larger as a figure of special significance. Americans, of course, are familiar with Jefferson as an early statesman, author of the Declaration of Independence, and a high-ranking presidential Founding Father. But there is another Jefferson less well known. This is the Jefferson who, as the outstanding American philosopher of democracy, has an increasing appeal to the world’s newly emerging peoples.
There is no other man in history who formulated the ideas of democracy with such fullness, persuasiveness, and logic. Those interested in democracy as a poetical philosophy and system -- even those who do not accept his postulates or are critical of his solutions -- must reckon with his thought.

A. Equality, freedom and people’s control over government.
B. Equality, confidence in man and people’s control over government.
C. Equality, freedom and confidence in man.
D. Freedom, confidence in man and people’s control over government.

In an article some Chinese scholars are described as being "tantalized by the mysterious dragon bone hieroglyphics." Tantalized is one of many English words that have their origins in myths and legends of the past (in this case, Greek and Roman ones). The meaning of the verb tantalize is a very particular one : "to promise or show something desirable to a person and then take it away; to tease by arousing hope."

Tell an investment banker that a picture bought in 1950 for $30,000 sold this month for $104.1 million and you will be unlucky if you fail to get his attention. That was the case with the portrait of a young boy by Picasso when Sotheby’s dispersed on May 5 the tail end of the famous collection formed by the late John Hay Whitney and his wife Betsy Cushing Whitney. Sales added up to almost $190 million within two hours.
If you then go on to explain that Whitney bought the 1905 portrait not for investment but for art’s sake, because he loved 19th- and 20th-century painting, you might well be greeted with a stare of compassionate irony.
Yet that was exactly so. Had the heir to a vast fortune consulted experts at the time, most would have advised against the acquisition. Received wisdom in the 1950s
A. its art historical importance
B. its aesthetic characterization
C. the general public’s idea
D. its beauty

"Today, it’s certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represents modem America as powerfully as the company that created Mickey Mouse.

Ironically, he could not draw particularly well. But be was a genius in plenty of other respects, in business, his greatest skills were his insight and his management ability. After sett
A. he was a role model to business people and filmmakers
B. he could entertain the public at large all their lives
C. he was a purveyor of "subliterate" entertainment
