Its an impressive feat, to be sure, but lets just hope he still has a voiceAccording to Indian newspapers, Rajesh Burbure has been told to keep silent for several days so his vocal cords （声带） can healIt was reported that Burbure and his family are in a celebratory mood. “Its a proud moment for all of us,” his wife told DNAIndiaI, on the other hand, am unable to share their enthusiasmDont get me wrong: I hope the 35-year-old Burbure lives forever, sells a million records and bees an international celebrityBut his recordsinging for 80 hours straightis about as meaningful as most of the other curious but crazy feats listed in the Guinness Book of World RecordsGranted, Im not qualified to speak on the subjectIve got no world records to my name, and I never expect to have anyThen again, maybe I am qualified to speak for those of us who have better things to do than train for years to sing an 80-hour medley （集成曲） of pop songsBut lets not just pick on poor BurbureHes not the only person chasing meaningless accolades （荣誉）The Guinness Book of World Records is full of the names of people who at one time grew the longest hair, or built the biggest bicycle, or baked the largest cheesecakeTo all of these enterprising souls I ask, simply, “What was it all for?”Congratulations! For all of your painstaking effort, you became a footnote in a thick book that no one reads, except for you and the person who will eventually surpass you, with one more hour of singing, a few more centimeters of steel or a few more pounds of cheeseAfter all, records are made to be broken56From the text, we can conclude that the author _Athinks singing for 80 hours straight is pletely meaningless Bfeels it a pity he was not invited to share the happiness with the Burbures Cis quite worried about Burbures vocal cords Dhas no Guinness records, so he admires Burbures feat 57Before someone wins a Guinness record, he or she has to _Abee an international celebrityBknow all about Guinness recordsCpractice a great dealDbear great stress for fear of injury 58We can infer from the article that _Aafter the 80 hours of singing, Burbure could no longer speakBBurbures wife didnt support his attempt to make a Guinness recordCmany have criticized Burbure for his stupid behaviorDchallenging a Guinness record may be harmful to the health59The authors attitude to some Guinness world records is _Apositive Bimpressed Cnegative DtouchedBAlthough credit cards are being a more acceptable part of the financial scene, they are still regarded with doubts by many as being a major part of the “live now pay later” syndrome（综合症）Along with hire-purchase, rental and leasing schemes（租赁项目）, they provide encouragement to spend more moneyOf course, it is only the hotheaded who give way to the temptation to live, temporarily at least, beyond their means, and such people would no doubt manage to do so even without credit cardsAdvertising campaigns have, however, promoted a growing realization of the advantages of these small pieces of plastic. They prevent need to carry large amounts of cash and are always useful in emergenciesAll the credit card organizations charge interest on a monthly basis which may work out as high as 25 per cent a year, yet sensible purchasing using a card can mean that you obtain up to seven weeks, interest-free creditUsing the card abroad, where items frequently take a long time to be included on your account, can extend this period even furtherIt is worthwhile shopping around before deciding on a particular credit card. It is necessary to consider the amount of credit granted; interest rates, which may vary slightly; the number and range of outlets（经销店）, though most cards cover major garages, hotels, restaurants and department stores; and of course, what happens if your card is lost or stolenA credit card thief may be sitting on a potential goldmine particularly if there is a delay in reporting the loss of the cardHowever, if used wisely, a credit card can cost nothing, or at least help to tide you over a period of financial difficulty60The hotheaded are people who _Aspend more money than they haveBspend less money than other people Csave moneyDmake money61The disadvantage of credit cards is _ Ato enable you to buy things without carrying large amount of cash Bto encourage people to spend more money Cto be always useful in emergenciesDto help people tide over a period of financial difficulty62Deciding on a particular credit, you do not have to consider _Athe amount of credit grantedBthe number and range of outlets Cthe possibility of loss of moneyDthe department stores where you are going to use your credit cards63The underlined words in the last paragraph probably means _Afloating with the tide of Bgoing through a difficult period ofCrising and falling with the tide ofDattempting to go against the tide ofCMost shoplifters agree that the January sales offer wonderful opportunities for the hard-working thiefWith the shops so crowded and the staff so busy, it does not require any extraordinary talent to help you to take one or two little things and escape unnoticed. It is known, in the business, as “hoisting”But the hoisting game is not what it used to beEven at the height of the sales, shoplifters today never know if they are being watched by one of those evil little balls that hang from the ceilings of so many department stores above the most desirable goodsAs if that was not trouble enough for them, they can now be filmed at work and obliged to attend a showing of their performance in courtSelfridges was the first big London store to install closed-circuit videotape equipment to watch its sales floorsIn October last year the store won its first court case for shoplifting using an evidence a videotape clearly showing a couple stealing dressesIt was an important test case which encouraged other stores to install similar equipmentWhen the balls, called sputniks, first make an appearance in shops, it was widely believed that their only function was to frighten shopliftersTheir somewhat ridiculous appearances, the curious holes and red lights going on and off, certainly make the theory believableIt did not take long, however, for serious shoplifters to start showing suitable respectSoon after the equipment was in operation at Selfridges, store detective Brian Chadwick was sitting in the control room watching a woman secretly putting bottles of perfume into her bag “As she turned to go,” Chadwick recalled, “she suddenly looked up at the sputnik and stopped. She could not possibly have seen that the camera was trained on her because it is pletely hidden, but she must have had a feeling that I was looking at her”“For a moment she paused, but then she returned to counter and started putting everything backWhen she had finished, she opened her bag towards the camera to show it was empty and hurried out of the store”64January is a good month for shoplifters because _ Athey dont need to wait for staff to serve them Bthey dont need any previous experience as thieves CJanuary sales offer wonderful opportunities for them Dthere are so many people in the store 65The case last October was important because _ Athe store got the dresses back Bthe equipment was able to frighten shoplifters Cother shops found out about the equipment Dthe kind of evidence supplied was accepted by court66The woman stealing perfume _ Aguessed what the sputniks were for Bwas frightened by its shape Ccould see the camera filming herDknew that the detective had seen her67The womans action before leaving the store shows that she _ Awas sorry for what she had done Bdecided she didnt want what she had picked up Cwas afraid she would be arrestedDwanted to prove she had not intended to steal anythingDRon Meyer is the president and COO（首席运营官） of Universal StudiosAs one of the most successful business leaders in Hollywood, he heads up Universal Pictures and Universal Parks & ResortsHes the guy who oversees the production of Multimillion-dollar extravaganzas（作品） like King Kong and Cinderella ManMeyers story sounds like the plot of one of his motion picturesHe grew up in a modest home where there was little ineIt was a big deal to go to a restaurantAt 15, he quit high school and spent his time hanging out with the neighborhood toughs（流氓）He was then a kid quick with his fists who seemed to get into fights somewhat regularlyAt one point, he was separated from others with an infectious disease, having no TV and nothing to doHis mother sent him two booksOne was The Amboy Dukes, a novel about kids in street gangsThe other was The Flesh Peddlers, about a guy in the talent agency（星探公司） who lived a successful life“I realized,” he says, “that I was no longer that silly kid I had been, and I wanted to change my life”Meyer took any job he could getHe worked as a busboy and short-order cookHe cleaned offices and sold shoesThat attitude made an impression on peopleOne day he received a call from Paul Kohner, a successful agent who represented stars like John Huston, Charles Bronson and Lana TurnerTheir messenger and driver had quit, and they knew Ron was willing to take whatever job they offered.
