12．How can I convince youof her honesty？

9．Blind tasting is a very strange activity．Contrary to what many people imagine，it has nothing to do with blindfolds．It involves tasting a wine without seeing the label （商标） and it can deliver shocking surprises．I tasted seven champagnes （香槟） blind with a group of professionals recently．There was a shock when they discovered the wine most of them preferred carried a label they regarded as their least favorite．That sort of result is especially common with champagne，the most image-driven rather than quality-driven wine of all．But it happens all the time when wine is tasted blind．
Because I'm interested in how wines really taste instead of how I think they should，I taste wine blind as often as I can，especially when assessing similar young wines．But blind tasting when you know absolutely nothing about the wine in front of you is something completely different．The most difficult Master of Wine exams include three sessions during which you have a dozen glasses in front of you and nothing more helpful than a printed exam paper asking you to identify （鉴定） each wine as closely as possible，and assess its quality．
Now that the MW is behind me，I taste wine completely blind only very rarely，and never in public．So my blind tastings these days are round the dinner table with good friends and once a year when I act as a judge，with Hugh Johnson，in the Oxford vs Cambridge wine-tasting competition．This is the most extraordinary match，always held before the Boat Race but taken just as seriously nowadays．This year's taste-off took place at the end of last month，as usual in the Oxford and Cambridge Club on Pall Mall in London．
25．Which of the following is true about Blind tasting？D
A．Blind tasting is the professional way to identify a wine．
B．Blind tasting usually has the right result．
C．Blind tasting means tasting a wine with one's eyes covered．
D．Blind tasting is tasting a wine without seeing the label．
26．Why did the professionals get shocked at the result of their blind tasting？B
A．They got all the results correctly．
B．They didn't recognize their favorite at all．
C．The writer made no mistakes．
D．Champagnes can not be tasted blind．
27．What can we infer from the last paragraph？B
A．The Boat Race is taken more seriously than the wine race．
B．The Oxford v Cambridge wine-tasting competition is held annually．
C．I didn't act as a judge last year．
D．Pall Mall is chosen as the competition place for the first time．

16．Gone are the days when being a celebrity（名人） meant reaching the top of the social ladder．With the Internet as their springboard （跳板），people no longer need to be actors，sports stars or politicians to be celebrities．
You may still remember the time when Furong Jiejie，or"Sister Lotus"，and Fengjie，or"Sister Phoenix"，appeared online．All of a sudden they were the talk of the town because of their crazy clothes and unusual values．Then there was Yu Xiuhua，a cerebral palsy（脑瘫） sufferer who became famous as a talented poet online．And let's not forget the 14-year-old South Korean boy who got famous by simply broadcasting himself having dinner every day．
But when the word wanghong，or"Internet celebrity"，was named one of Yaowen Jiaozi magazine's"popular cyber words"in 2015，its meaning had changed．Those who now dominate the world of wanghong are largely famous for their heavily photoshopped selfies and the special lifestyles they advertise on social media．
But what wanghong offer their fans is much more than a bunch of pretty pictures．"There is a longing for the effortless and fashionable way of life，"commented China Youth Daily．
Though their lifestyle may seem"effortless"，some wanghong take great pains to run their Taobao stores，communicate with their fans and think of ways to keep their viewership，for example．
Zhang Dayi，a famous wanghong with over 4million followers on Sina Weibo，revealed to Southern People Weekly some of her secrets for attracting fans．"Usually people look up to celebrities at a 45-degree angle．But I reduced that angle to 15degrees and I made it，because no one likes to stretch their necks too much，"she said．Her social media strategies include being more interactive and friendly with fans．"As soon as you let down your guard，people will start to approach，"she said．

10．When it comes to success in business and success in life，there are few qualities as important as confidence．
People naturally have different levels of confidence．Some have a higher level of confidence than others do，but even those whose confidence is lacking can learn to build their level of confidence and reach their most important goals．Increasing self confidence is one of the most common reasons people give for seeking the help of psychologists and other professionals．
One of the many places where a greater level of confidence is useful is in the workplace． We all know how difficult it can be，for instance，to ask the boss for a raise．This process can be extremely difficult for those who lack confidence in their own abilities．After all，if you are unsure about your own abilities，how will you ever convince your boss that you deserve more money for the work you do？
Even if you are not asking for that big raise，having plenty of confidence in your abilities is important to success．If you are certain of your abilities，chances are that those around you，whether they are your coworkers，your colleagues or your superiors，will see that confidence，and that will help to assure them that you are the best at what you do．
Being thought of as the person to go to，and being seen as an expert in your chosen field，is naturally very important to success on the job．If you can make yourself the person people go to for guidance and advice，you will help to protect yourself from the ever present danger of downsizing．After all，if you are a recognized expert at the office，you will be regarded as an indispensable member of the team．
Having a high level of confidence，after all，does not mean overlooking the places where you could improve．Knowing what you do well and where you need help will help you enjoy increased success and confidence．
