ENDANGERED SPECIES
 There are three valid arguments to support the preservation of endangered species. Aesthetic justification contends that biodiversity contributes to the quality of life because many of the endangered plants and animals are particularly appreciated for their unique physical beauty. (A) The aesthetic role of nature in all its diverse forms is reflected in the art and literature of every culture attaining symbolic status in the spiritual life of many groups. (B) According to the proponents of the aesthetic argument, people need nature in all its diverse and beautiful forms as part of the experience of the world.
 Another argument that has been put forward, especially by groups in the medical and pharmacological fields, is that of ecological self-interest. (C) By preserving all species, we retain a balance of nature that is ultimately beneficial to humankind. (D) Recent research on global ecosystems has been cited as evidence that every species contributes important or even essential functions that may be necessary to the survival of our own species. Some advocates of the ecological argument contend that important chemical compounds derived from rare plants may contain the key to a cure for one of the diseases currently threatening human beings. If we do not protect other species, then they cannot protect us.
 Apart from human advantage in both the aesthetic and ecological arguments, the proponents of a moral justification contend that all species have the right to exist, a viewpoint stated in the United Nations World Charter for Nature, created in 1982. Furthermore, if humankind views itself as the stewards of all the creatures on Earth, then it is incumbent upon human beings to protect them, and to ensure the continued existence of all species. Moral justification has been extended by a movement called "deep ecology," the members of which rank the biosphere higher than people because the continuation of life depends on this larger perspective. To carry their argument to its logical conclusion, all choices must be made for the biosphere, not for people.

B. Nature is beautiful because it provides varied experiences for people.
C. People are naturally attracted to beauful forms rather than to different ones.
D. The world is experienced by nature in various forms that are equally beautiful.

THE ART WORLD
 One of the major problems in the art world is how to distinguish and promote an artist in effect, a market must be created for an artist to be successful. The practice of signing and numbering individual prints was introduced by James Abbott McNeill Whistler, the nineteenth-century artist best known for the painting of his mother, called "Arrangement in Grey and Black," but known to most of us as "Whistler's Mother". Whistler's brother-in-law, Sir Francis Seymour Haden, a less well-known artist, had speculated that collectors might find prints more attractive if they knew that there were only a limited number of copies produced. By signing the work in pencil, an artist could guarantee and personalize each print.
 As soon as Whistler and Haden began the practice of signing and numbering their prints, their work began to increase in value. When other artists noticed that the signed prints commanded higher prices, they began copying the procedure.
 Although most prints are signed on the right-hand side in the margin below the image, the placement of the signature is a matter of personal choice. Indeed, prints have been signed within image, in any of the margins, or even on the reverse side of the print. Wherever the artist elects to sign it, a signed print is still valued above an unsigned one, even in the same edition.

A. the same edition	B. a print	C. the reverse side	D. the image
Question 45: What made Whistler's work more valuable?
A. His painting of his mother	B. His fame as an artist
C. His signature on the prints	D. His brother-in-law's prints
Question 46: The author mentions all of the following as reasons why a collector prefers a signed print EXCEPT......
A. it limits the number of copies of the print	B. it makes the print more personal
