Where is most of Robert’ s collection kept? [br]
W Well, welcome to meet Robert Opie. (11)He’ s dedicated his whole life to his collection, most of which is housed in the Museum of Packaging and Advertising. Robert, what exactly do you collect?
M That’ s very difficult to explain. It’ s the whole story of an enormous social revolution that’ s happened over the last hundred years and the main thing I’ m interested in within that is the story of shopping and products and brands. I collect everything that one puts into today’ s shopping basket, everything that’ s in today’ s supermarket, but looking back at it over the last hundred and fifty years and the evidence of this is now the packs that have survived, the advertisements, the promotions...
W How do you decide what to collect?
M Um, it can become quite tricky when I suddenly find I’ m running out of money, er, because when I’ m shopping, you see, first of all I go round and think, what do I need for the collection, what new products have arrived, what new designs have come along to update the previous design and then I go around and think, what am I going to eat tonight, you know, so it’ s mainly made up of those things and I get very disappointed when there’s a product I want but I’ve already got the packaging, you see, because I have to wait till the next change comes along.
W When did you begin collecting and why?
M (14)About the age of three, I think it was, (13)when I found this wonderful stone in the path at home and then my mother told me it was a fossilized sea urchin. Well, that began my stone collection and then I went, like many other schoolchildren, onto other things like stamps and coins, but I was always trying to find things that other people hadn’ t collected. So then at the age of sixteen I suddenly thought, well, here’ s something, packaging, that everybody’ s literally throwing away and something is always happening and changing in it, (12)so from that moment I’ ve saved all the packages I’ ve ever eaten the contents of.
W Do you feel that your collecting is an obsession?
M Er, I’m sure somewhat it is but I tend to find that I’ m driven by this commitment that I’ m saving the nation’ s heritage, even though a lot of people think that the rubbish aspect is not really someone’ s heritage. I have to put in a certain number of hours every day to save something which I think should be saved. You may have watched the Olympics and you see those people doing four or five hours’ training every day and I find that, I mean, (15)that may be called an obsession but it’s really a dedication to a particular thing and I think I’ m probably dedicated in that kind of way.
选项
A、Products related to the Olympics.
B、Uncommon stones and rocks.
C、Rare coins and stamps.
D、The packaging of products.
答案
D
解析
虽然前面男士在介绍自己藏品的时候说得似乎很复杂,但从“so from that moment I’ve saved all the packages I’ve ever eaten the contents of”可以知道他收藏的其实是食品包装。故选D。
