6．"Image is everything．"An entire industry has been built upon the assumption that image is everything，but when it comes down to it，an appealing image is not enough．If there is no substance（事实）behind the image，the product，service or person will fail eventually．
First of all，one should consider how important image is in the selling of products and services．Advertising agencies have raised the art of creating an image to a state of near perfection．Public concept of that product or service is certainly managed by the images created by the advertising agencies．But if the product or service does not live up to the image that was created，the customer will be very dissatisfied and possibly ask for their money back．For example，the Arthur Andersen accounting firm had spent decades building up an image of trustworthiness．But the recent scandal （丑闻） showed that behind that image，it cheated in business practices．Despite the previous positive image，the firm is being accused of criminal actions and it will probably not survive as a business unit．Although the image had been nearly perfect，the reality behind the image has led to the downfall of the world famous accounting firm．
Similarly，personal advisers can build up a public image for politicians and movie stars．Putting out positive news releases，making sure that only the best photographs are published，and ensuring that the person is seen in all the right places can build up a very positive image in the view of the general commons．But once again，history is filled with examples of both politicians and movie stars that fell from grace like the story of the Hollywood actor giving in to the pressures of fame and fortune．With people，just as with products and services，image is certainly important，but without positive substance behind the image，failure is close．
To summarize，it is clear that an appealing image is extremely important to success，whether that image is related to selling a product or service or to the"selling"of a person．But image is only half of the equation．What lies behind that image is every bit as important as the image itself--the person or product must deliver on that image or there is little chance for long-term success．

32．The downfall of the Arthour Andersen accounting firm is due toB．
A．its previous images
B．its dishonesty in business
C．its bad management
D．its poor service
33．Why did some famous people fall from grace？C

B．They felt much pressure from the public．
C．They failed to live up to their images．
D．They paid little attention to fame and fortune．
34．The structure of the passage isA．
（ A：Argument P：Point C：Conclusion ）

35．The author tries to argue thatD．

9．FrankensteinFrankenstein was a book by Mary Shelly----it's been adapted for the screen dozens of times．The story of Frankenstein is told through a series of letters written by Captain Robert Walton to his sister，as he leads an expedition （长征）to the North Pole．On the way，he meets Victor Frankenstein，who tells Walton the story of his life．Frankenstein is the surname of the guy who creates the monster．The monster doesn't actually have a game．Anyway，Victor is a scientist who's desperate to discover the secret of life．After years of study，he makes an enormous creature out of human remains and brings it to life．Victor intends it to be beautiful．Unfortunately，the creature turns out really hideous，and Victor runs away in terror．Although the monster is good and kind，humans are scared of it．When they mistreat it，the monster becomes angry and evil．Wanting revenge on its creator，the monster murders Dr．Frankenstein's brother，his wife，and his best friend．When Victor figures out the monster is behind all the deaths，he swears to track it down and kill it．
This book was written in 1816，right after a period called the Enlightenment．The Enlightenment emphasized the pursuit of knowledge and reason，and gave rise to the scientific method．Mary Shelley criticized the Enlightenment through the character of Victor Frankenstein，"He is a negative example of an Enlightenment scientist-------he pursues knowledge at any cost，and his obsession with discovering the secret of life destroys him，as well as his friends and family．"Some Enlightenment thinkers might have seen such a loss as necessary for the advancement of science，but not Mary Shelley．She and her husband，poet Percy Shelly，were part of the Romanic Movement in art and literature．Romancism was a reacrion against the Enlightenment's embrace of rationality and reason．The Romantics emphasized emotion over rationality，and thought people should feel awe and terror in regard to nature．Frankenstein incorporates all these ideas．To Shelley，Frankenstein doesn't fear and respect the world of nature enough------she says that by tempering with nature，he brings about complete disaster．Frankenstein is not just a great Romantic novel．It's also considered one of the first major works of science fiction．It influences a whole generation of writers，and the monster has become one of the most recognizable figures in Western culture．
