Salvador Dali (1904-1989) was one of the most popular of modern
artists. The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and
admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an
exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings
and more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor
will find the best pieces, most importantly the Persistence of
Memory. There is also L’Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper,
objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from
television programmes reflecting the artist’s showman qualities.
The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met
with the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path
of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.
The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two
infinities (无限). “From the infinity small to the infinity large,
contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish
accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his
museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.
The fine selection of the major works was done in close
collaboration (合作)with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid,
Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the
Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg.
8. Which of the following best describe Dali according to Paragraph1?
9. What is Dali’s The Persistence of Memory considered to be?
10. How are the exhibits arranged at the World of Dali?
11. What does the word “contributions” in the last paragraph refer to?

Conflict is on the menu tonight at the café La Chope. This evening,
as on every Thursday night, psychologist Maud Lehanne is leading two
of France’s favorite pastimes, coffee drinking and the “talking
cure”. Here they are learning to get in touch with their true feelings.
It isn’t always easy. They customers-some thirty Parisians who pay
just under $2 (plus drinks) per session-care quick to intellectualize
(高谈阔论)，slow to open up and connect. “You are forbidden to say
‘one feels,’or ‘people think’,”Lehane told them. “Say ‘I think,’
‘Think me’.”
A café society where no intellectualizing is allowed? It couldn’tseem more un-French. But Lehanne’s psychology café is about morethan
knowing oneself: It’s trying to help the city’s troubledneighborhood cafes. Over the years, Parisian cafes have fallen victimto changes in the French lifestyle-longer working hours, a fast foodboom and a younger generation’s desire to spend more time at home.Dozens of new theme cafes appear to change the situation.Cafesfocusedaround psychology, history, and engineering are catching on, fillingtables well into the evening.The city’s“psychology cafes”,which offer great comfort ,are amongthe most popular places.Middle-aged homemakers,retirees,and theunemployed come to such cafes to talk about love,anger,and dreams witha psychologist.And they come to Lehanne’s group just to learn to saywhat they feel.“There’s a strong need in Paris for communication，”
says Maurice Frisch,a café La Chope regular who works as a religious
instructor in nearby church.“Peaple have few real friends.And they
need to open up”.Lehanne says she’d like to see psychology cafes all
overFrance.“If people had normal lives,these cafes wouldn’t exist,”
she says.“If life weren’t a battle,people would’t need a special
place just to speak.”But then,it wouldn’t’ be France.
12.What are people encouraged to do at the cafe La Chope?
13. How are cafes affected by French lifestyle changes?
14. What are theme cafes expected to do?
15. Why are psychology cafes becoming popular in Paris?

The freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend
time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota,
Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”. I left
for the land of warmth and vitamin C(维生素C), thinking of beaches
and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I
sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting,
and pink sunsets (at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon)
filled the weekend, but the best part- particularly to my taste, dulled
by months of cold- weather root vegetables- was a 7 a.m. adventure to
the Sarasota farmers’ market that proved to be more than worth the
early wake-up call.
The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every
Saturday from 7:00 am to 1 p.m, rain or shine, along North Lemon and
State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries, the red-painted
sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes:
amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.
Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened(蔓上成熟的) promise,
I’ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive
they look in the store, once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry,
hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one
particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand, full of fresh
and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal- and
at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter
was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn’t
be experiencing again for months.
Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened
when I learned that Brown’s
Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened
restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where- luckily for me- I was
planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu,
I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.
4. What did the author think of her winter life in New York?
5. What made the author’s getting up late early worthwhile?
6. What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?
7. What was the author going to that evening?
