The arts, on the contrary, are those areas of human endeavor that require skill. Skill is a person's ability to work well with a part of his or her body. Skill is talent and technique. An artist is someone who does something well or makes something well using hands and tools. Artistry is also a well-developed skill in one area of manufacture. Everything that was not "natural" was artificial, that is, made with tools through skill by hand.
Today the word art has a special meaning. Art is that which is beautiful: the painting of skilled painters, for ex- ample, is enjoyed and appreciated by many people. Weaving rugs and tapestries is another art. Ceramic work is also art: the shapes, colors, and textures of bowls, vases, and pitchers make these clay items beautiful to look at and enjoyable to use.

What about the tourist who goes to Hong Kong？ Does he get the same information that he could get from a book？ He might read that Hong Kong is crowded, that there is less than 200 square meters of space for each person, but seeing and feeling the lack of space will impress him much more.

听力原文：Henry: Hey. Have you ever heard of Academy Awards, or Oscars？
Shirley: Well, I should say I've done more than hearing of it. I know it quite well. Academy Awards or Oscars are given every year in the United States by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for excellence in the creation and production of motion pictures. First presented in 1929, Oscars are among the film industry's most desired 'prizes.
Henry: That seems very interesting. I wonder whether you know the principal categories for Academy Awards winners.
Shirley: They include Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Special Effect, Best Sound, Best Musical Score, etc.
Henry: Oh, it seems quite inclusive.
Shirley: But not many can get one during the whole life. And for most award categories, a maximum of five entrants are first nominated by the academy members who are in that particular field. (8[D]) That is, actors select actors; directors select directors and so on. From among these nominees, all academy members select the winner by secret ballot. The winners are publicly announced at a formal ceremony each spring.
Henry: Yeah. That's really competitive, but what will each winner get？ A certain amount of bonus？
Shirley: No. (9[A]) Actually, a gold plated bronze human figure created by American sculptor George Stanley will be awarded to each winner.
Henry: Oh, I see. Thank you for your explanation. How do you manage to know all these？
Shirley: Well, (10[C]) last semester I took a course in the history of films;
Who will select the Best Actress nominees for Academy Awards？
听力原文：A: Come in Sharon end take a seat.
B: Thanks.
A: so, where do we start？ Should we begin with a look at last year and then go on from there？
B: Fine.
A: So, how do you feel you've done in your first full year with the company？
B: Overall, I think I've done quite well. I feel quite confident now about what I do.
A: And are you happy with your duties？
B: Well, the job is exactly as it was advertised in the paper, so there have been no surprises. I like dealing with customers and I don't mind answering the phone and preparing invoices. Sometimes it's a bit boring typing long price lists, but then everyone has to do it.
A: That's true. Does anything make your job difficult？
B: The computer. To begin with, I was slow because I didn't know the program, but now I get annoyed when the computer just stops working for no reason. I often sit looking at the monitor for minutes, not sure whether it is still working or not. I think the network is too old for our soft ware end we need some new machines.
A: But apart from the computer, is there anything else you would like to change？
B: Erm, let me see. I'd like the authority to issue credit notes without having to ask you first. You're often away on business end sometimes customers ring up with a complaint. And if we can't contact you, then we can't deal with the complaint properly. It's a bit embarrassing at times.
A: Yes, but some of our customers always find something wrong end try end get a credit note with every order. You can't believe everything they say, you know. What about your objectives for the future？
B: Well, I need to get to know the customers a bit better and maybe try to make fewer mistakes. But I think the most important thing is to increase my product knowledge, so I don't get embarrassed when customers make enquiries.
A: Don't worry, you'll learn all that in time. What I'd like to ask you about now is...
