听力原文： Cross was what people call a mystery man. We had known him for over five years, ever since he became a member of our modest club, but he had a way of keeping his private life to himself in all but unessential details. We knew his address, though he did not ever invite us to his home, and his age too, but only insignificant matters of this kind. It appeared that he did not have to work for a living as we did in our various ways. He had once hinted at an inheritance on which he managed to live comfortably. He was not, however, a man of luxurious habits: he was not especially well-dressed and he did not even possess a car. At the age of forty-five he was still a bachelor. Since marriage was not a subject he ever discussed, we had no means of finding out whether he regretted the lack of a wife.
Cross disappeared abruptly from our circle and shortly after we came to learn the first really solid facts about our mystery man. From reports that appeared in the newspapers, accompanied by photographs of man who was, without any doubt, our Mr. Cross, it was revealed that he was a most accomplished burglar, operating chiefly in the London area. He had practised this profession for many years, until he was arrested and sent to prison.

C．Because he didn't invite us to his home.
D．Because he kept his private life a secret.
听力原文：W: Hello？
M: Hello, Linda？
W: Hello, Abruzzi.
M: Look, what are you doing on Tuesday night？ There is a great show at the Grand Theater.
W: Tuesday night？ Oh, sorry, I'm planning to finish my term paper. It has to be in on Wednesday morning.
M: Oh well, never mind. Look, Wednesday, why don't we go out for dinner？ Just you and me, very nice and romantic. We could go to that little restaurant you like so much.
W: Sounds like a great idea, but I think I might have to help my roommate clean up the apartment. You see, we are having some people in on Wednesday night, so we want the place; to look really nice.
M: Well, that means you're going to be busy Wednesday night too.
W: I'm afraid so.
M: Well, how about Thursday night？ There's going to be a football championship at school. How about we go and root for the Old Blues？
W: Yes, I was planning to see that, but you know what's come up—it's my mama's birthday, so we are taking her out for dinner.
M: Well, I suppose you're busy on Friday night, too. I had planned to invite you to a concert.

The biographer has to dance between two shaky positions with respect to the subject(研究对象). Too close a relation, and the writer may lose objectivity. Not close enough, and the writer may lack the sympathy necessary to any effort to portray a mind, a soul—the quality of life. Who should write the biography of a family, for example？ Because of their closeness to the subject, family members may have special information, but by the same token, they may not have the distance that would allow them to be fair. Similarly, a king's servant might not be the best one to write a biography of that king. But a foreigner might not have the knowledge and sympathy necessary to write the king's biography—not for a readership from within the kingdom, at any rate.
There is no ideal position for such a task. The biographer has to work within the position he or she has in the world, adjusting that position as necessary to deal with the subject. Every position has strengths and weaknesses: to thrive, a writer must try to become aware of these, evaluate them in terms of the subject, and select a position accordingly.
When their subjects are heroes or famous figures, biographies often reveal a democratic motive: they attempt to show that their subjects are only human, no better than anyone else. Other biographies are meant to change us, to invite us to become better than we are. The biographies of Jesus (耶稣) found in the Bible are in this class.
Biographers may claim that their account is the "authentic" one. In advancing this claim, they are helped if the biography is "authorized" by the subject; this presumably allows the biographer special access to private information. "Unauthorized" biographies also have their appeal, however, since they can suggest an independence of mind in the biographer. In book promotions, the "unauthorized" characterization usually suggests the prospect of juicy gossip that the subject had hoped to suppress. A subject might have several biographies, even several "authentic" ones. We sense intuitively that no one is in a position to tell the story of a life, perhaps not even the subject, and this has been proved by the history of biography.
According to the author, an ideal biographer would be one who ______.
A．knows the subject very well and yet maintains a proper distance from him
B．is close to the subject and knows the techniques of biography writing
C．is independent and treats the subject with fairness and objectivity
D．possesses special private information and is sympathetic toward the subject
