51.Those who gain fame most often gain it as a result of possessing a single talent or skill: singing, dancing, painting, or writing, etc. The successful performer develops a style that is marketed aggressively and gains some popularity. And it is this popularity that usually convinces the performer to continue performing in the same style, since that is what the public seems to want and to en-joy. But in time, the performer becomes .bored singing the same songs in the same way year after year, or the painter becomes bored painting similar scenes or portraits, or the actor is tired of playing the same character repeatedly.

答案：在已经出了名的人们中间，绝大多数是因有一技之长，如唱歌、舞蹈、绘画、写作等，而获此声誉的。这位成功的表演者展示出一种在市场上可以争雄制胜的风格，因而获得声誉。而且也就是这种声誉常使表演者确信必须把这种风格坚持下去，因为看来这正是大众所需要和喜爱的。可是随着时间转移，歌手年复一年地依老调唱老歌，画师画同样的风景人物，演员反复重演同一角色，都会感到厌烦。

五、写作(52)

52.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic "An increasing Number of People are Studying for Master Degrees". You should write in no less than 100 words, and base your composition on the outline given in Chinese below:

1.越来越多的人在读硕士学位;

2.其中的原因;

3.你个人的看法。

答案：Need A Master Degree or Not

Nowadays, most people want to enter graduate school. In fact, this desire has grown considerably in the past few years. Students struggle to pass the graduate school entrance exam, to survive the pro-gram, and find a job at the end of it. They read many exam preparation books. They may also attend special "exam preparation" seminars and courses. There are some reasons for such phenomenon.

First is the general perception that a graduate school diploma, a master' s degree, is needed for getting a better job. Second is that some students might not be sure what they want to do, and a few more years inside the courtyards of academic seems desirable.

In my opinion, this is not reasonable. I don't deny that a few passed and went on, but the majority failed and finally wiped away their valuable times. So we don' t have to study for the mas-ter degree. Never forget the old saying: every road leads to Rome!
