Wherever they go, people turn out in their thousands to greet them. The crowds go wild trying to catch a brief glimpse of their smiling, colorfully dressed idols. The stars are transported in their chauffeur driven RollsRoyces, private helicopters or executive aeroplanes. They are surrounded by a permanent entourage of managers, press agents and bodyguards. Photographs of them appear regularly in the press and all their ings and goings are reported, for, like Royalty, pop stars are news. If they enjoy many of the privileges of Royalty, they certainly share many of the inconveniences as well. It is dangerous for them to make unscheduled appearances in public. They must be constantly shielded from the adoring crowds which idolize them. They are no longer private individuals, but public property. The financial rewards they receive for this sacrifice cannot be calculated, for their rates of pay are astronomical.And why not? Society has always rewarded its top entertainers lavishly. The great days of Hollywood have bee legendary: famous stars enjoyed fame, wealth and adulation on an unprecedented scale. By today’s standards, the excesses of Hollywood do not seem quite so spectacular. A single gramophone record nowadays may earn much more in royalties than the films of the past ever did. The petition for the title ‘Top of the Pops’ is fierce, but the rewards are truly colossal.It is only right that the stars should be paid in this way. Don’t the top men in industry earn enormous salaries for the services they perform to their panies and their countries? Pop stars earn vast sums in foreign currency – often more than large industrial concerns – and the taxman can only be grateful fro their massive annual contributions to the exchequer. So who would begrudge them their rewards?It’s all very well for people in humdrum jobs to moan about the successes and rewards of others. People who make envious remarks should remember that the most famous stars represent only the tip of the iceberg. For every famous star, there are hundreds of others struggling to earn a living. A man working in a steady job and looking forward to a pension at the end of it has no right to expect very high rewards. He has chosen security and peace of mind, so there will always be a limit to what he can earn. But a man who attempts to bee a star is taking enormous risks. He knows at the outset that only a handful of petitors ever get to the very top. He knows that years of concentrated effort may be rewarded with plete failure. But he knows, too, that the rewards for success are very high indeed: they are the repense for the huge risks involved and if he achieves them, he has certainly earned them. That’s the essence of private enterprise. sentence Pop stars’ style of living was once the prerogative only of Royalty means[A] their life was as luxurious as that of royalty.They enjoy what once only belonged to the royalty.[C] They are rather rich.[D] Their way of living was the same as that of the royalty. is the author’s attitude toward top stars’ high ine?[A] Approval.Disapproval.[C] Ironical.[D] Critical. can be inferred from the passage[A] there exists fierce petition in climbing to the top.People are blind in idolizing stars.[C] Successful Pop stars give great entertainment.[D] The tax they have paid are great. can we learn from the passage?[A] Successful man should get highine repayment.Pop stars made great contribution to a country.[C] Pop stars can enjoy the life of royalty.[D] Successful men represent the tip of the iceberg. paragraph covers the main idea?[A] The first.The second.[C] The third.[D] The fourth. 權力，（尤指）特權 受雇開車人，（尤指富人、要人的）司機 隨行人員，伴隨者，近侍；建筑物周圍 龐大的，天文的 奉承 灌音 Exchequer Bond 國庫債券 平淡的，單調的 moan about 發(fā)牢騷難句譯注 prerogative of Royalty或the royal prerogative 皇家的特權（再英國指國王名義上享有不經議會認可而采取行動的權力）。EX: A vast crowd turned out to watch the 。 great days of Hollywood have bee legendry.【參考譯文】好萊塢鼎盛時期成了神話。 single gramophone record nowadays may earn much more in royalties than the films of the past ever did.【參考譯文】今天單張錄音唱片掙的版稅要比過去一步電影還要多得多。公司的高級人員享受高薪，歌星也應享受。答案詳解 他們享受一度只屬于貴族享用的一切。這些歌星坐著司機開動的RollsRoyces汽車、私人直升飛機，高級長官飛機到處走，永遠圍著一批經紀人、報界記者和保鏢隨從人員。在第一段最后一句：“他們?yōu)樗麄兊臓奚@取的報酬難以計算，支付率驚人。
