The principle that conflict is the heart of all dramaticaction, when illustrated by concrete examples, almost always turns up some aspect of the struggle betweengood and evil.The idea that there is neither good nor evil in any absolute moral or religious sense in widespread in our times.There are various relativistic and behavioristic standards of ethics. If these standards even admit the distinctionbetween good and evil, it is as a relative matter and not as a whirlwind of choices that lies at the center ofliving. In any such state of mind, conflict can at best be only a petty matter, lacking true universality. The actsof the evildoer and of the virtuous man alike become dramatically neutralized. Imagine the reduced effect ofCrime and Punishment or The Brothers Karamazov had Dostoevsky thought that good and evil, as portrayedin those books, were wholly relative, and if he had had no conviction about them.You cannot have a vital literature if you ignore or shun evil. What you get then is the world of Pollyanna,goody-goody in place of the good. Cry, The Beloved Country is a great and dramatic novel because AlanPaton, in addition to being a skilled workman, sees with clear eyes both good and evil, differentiates them,pitches them into conflict with each other, and takes sides. He sees that the native boy Absalom Kumalo, whohas murdered, cannot be judged justly without taking into account the environment that had had part in shapinghim. But Paton sees, too, that Absalom the individual, not society the abstraction, committed the act and isresponsible for it. Mr. Paton understands mercy. He knows that this precious thing is not evoked by sentimentalimpulse, but by a searching examination of the realities of human action. Mercy follows a judgment; it doesnot precede it.One of the novels by the talented Paul Bowles, Let It Come Down, is full of motion, full of sensationaldepravities, and is a crashing bore. The book recognizes no good, admits no evil, and is coldly indifferent to

The success ofthe experiment was modest, but it spawned optimism among farmers and ranchers around the country. Itseemed to them that science had finally triumphed over weather.Unfortunately, it didn't work out that way. Although there were many cloud-seeding operations during the late1940s and the 1950s, no one could say whether they had any effect on precipitation. Cloud seeding, or weathermodification as it came to be called, was clearly more complicated than had been thought. It was not until theearly 1970s that enough experiments had been done to understand the processes involved. What these studiesindicated was that only certain types of clouds are amenable to seeding. One of the most responsive is thewinter orographic cloud, formed when air currents encounter a mountain slope and rise. If the temperature insuch a cloud is right, seeding can increase snow yield by 10 to 20 percent.There are two major methods of weather modification. In one method, silver iodide is burned in propane-firedground generators. The smoke rises into the clouds where the tiny silver-iodide particles act as nuclei for theformation of ice crystals. The alternate system uses airplanes to deliver dry-ice pellets. Dry ice does not provideice-forming nuclei, Instead, it lowers the temperature near the water droplets in the clouds so that they freezeinstantly-a process called spontaneous nucleation. Seeding from aircraft is more efficient but also moreexpensive.About 75 percent of all weather modification in the United States takes place in the Western states. With thepopulation of the West growing rapidly, few regions of the world require more water. About 85 percent of thewaters in the rivers of the West comes from melted snow. As one expert put it, the water problems of the futuremay make the energy problems of the 1970s seem like child's play to solve. That's why the U.S. Bureau ofReclamation, along with state governments, municipal water districts, and private interests such as ski areasand agricultural cooperatives, is putting increased effort into cloud-seeding efforts. Without consistent andheavy snowfalls in the Rockies and Sierras, the West would literally dry up. The most intensive effort toproduce precipitation was during the West's disastrous snow drought of 1976-77. It is impossible to judge theefficiency of weather modification based on one crash program, but most experts think that such hurry-upprograms are not very effective.46- What is the main subject of the passage?1) The scientific contributions of Vincent Schaefer2) Developments in methods of increasing precipitation3) The process by which snow crystals form4) The effects of cloud seeding47- After the cloud-seeding operations of the late 1940s and the 1950s, the farmers and ranchersmentioned in the first paragraph probably felt ---------.1) triumphant2) modest3) disappointed4) optimistic

Today, the homes of some of those who have settled there during Taos' 300-year history have beenrestored and are open to the public. Along with the churches and art galleries, these residences make up a part ofthe unique cultural heritage of Taos.Representing the Spanish Colonial era is the meticulously restored hacienda of Don Antonio SeverinoMartinez. He moved his family to Taos in 1804 and transformed a simple cabin, into a huge, imposing fortress.Its twenty-one rooms and two courtyards now house a living museum where visitors can watch potters andweavers at work. The American territorial era is represented by two houses: the home of the explorer and scoutKit Carson, located off Taos Square, and that of Charles Bent, a trader who later became governor of the NewMexico territory. Carson's house was built in 1843, Bent's three years later.In the twentieth century, Taos, like its bigger sister Santa Fe to the south, blossomed into a center for artistsand artisans. One of the first artists to move there was Ernest Blumenschein, who is known for his illustrations,including those for the works of Jack London and other bestselling authors. in 1898, while on a Denver-toMexico City sketching tour, Blumenschein's wagon broke down near Taos. He walked into town carrying hisbroken wheel, looked around, and decided to stay. His rambling, twelve-room house is furnished as it waswhen he lived there. Not far from the Blumenschein house is the home of another artist, Russian-born painterNicolai Fechin, who moved to Taos in the 1920s. He carved and decorated the furniture, windows, gates, andFireplaces himself, transforming the interior of his adobe house into that of a traditional country house in hishomeland. A few miles north of town is the Millicent Rogers Museum, the residence of a designer and collectorwho came to Taos in 1947 An adobe castle, it contains a treasure trove of Native American and Hispanicjewelry, pots, rugs and other artifacts.54- The passage mainly discusses which aspect of Taos?1) Its famous families 2) Events from its 300-year history3) Its different architectural styles4) Its historic houses55- The word meticulously in line 5 is closest in meaning to ---------.1) tastefully2) privately3) carefully4) expensively56- The word imposing in line 7 is closest in meaning to ---------.1) striking2) complex3) threatening4) antiquated57- According to the passage, the home of Don Antonio Severino Martinez is now a(n) ---------.1) fortress2) art gallery3) museum4) simple cabin
