[单项选择]Dear Sir,
Just over six months ago, I saw an advertisement in a morning newspaper for a set of the complete works (全集) of William Shakespeare: Your company offered this set at a low price: 15 pounds and 50 pence. I had wanted a set of Shakespeare’s plays and poems for some time, so I sent for them.
Two weeks later, the books arrived, together with a set of the works of Charles Dickens which I had not wanted. So I returned the Dickens’ books to you. Two more weeks passed. Then there arrived a second set of the works of Shakespeare, the same set of Dickens’ books and a set of the plays of Moliere in French. I do not read French, and they were not useful at all, so I wrote to you. You did not answer that letter. Instead you sent me a bill for 42 pounds and a set of the plays of Schiller in German.

His latest enterprise as a screenwriter, Sunday’s Children, completes a trilogy of family-oriented movies that began with Fanny and Alexander and continued with The Best Intentions written by Bergman and directed by Danish filmmaker Bille August.
Besides dealing with members of Bergman’s family in bygone times--it begins a few years after The Best Intentions leaves off--the new picture was directed by Daniel Ber

[单项选择] Wild Foods of Australia
Over 120 years ago, the English botanist (植物学家) J.D. Hooker, writing of Australia edible plants, suggested that many of them were ’’eatable but not worth eating’’. Nevertheless, the Australian flora (植物群), together with the fauna 动物群), supported the Aboriginal people before the arrival of Europeans. The Aborigines were not farmers and were wholly dependent for life on the wild products around them. They learned to eat, often after treatment, a wide variety of plants.
The conquering Europeans displaced the Aborigines, killing many, driving others from their traditional tribal lands, and eventually settling many of the tribal remains on government reserves, where flour and beef replaced nardoo (大柄苹) and wallaby (小袋鼠) as main foods. And so, gradually, the vast store of knowledge, accumulated over thousands of years, fell into disuse. Much was lost.
However, a few European men took an intelligent and even respectful interes
