(英国的新规定提醒银行家们，社会对他们的表现感兴趣，不仅是短期的，而且是长期的。)”再次呼应首段：英国新政府提醒银行
114、家们注重“长期主义”投资，长期的投资需要耐心（patience）。由此可知B选项“Patience as a Corporate Virtue(耐心是公司的美德)”可以概括全文，为最佳标题。故选B。Section CDirections: Read the following passages.

Legal documents and personal papers can reveal facts such as a persons birthplace, income, number of children, and lifespan. Letters or a diary may
131、contain valuable information about the persons friends and activities, thoughts and feelings. All of these materials are called primary sources because they contain firsthand information - information that does not depend on the opinions or interpretations of others.A biographer also checks secondar
132、y sources. The subjects friends and relatives may be interviewed. If the subject died long ago, the biographer looks for anything written about him or her. Secondary sources supply secondhand information, and so a biographer must use them with care. The subjects friends will want the biography to be
133、 favorable, while others may wish it to be unfavorable. The biographer must avoid both extremes. The biographers job is not to make readers like or dislike the subject, but to give as complete and truthful a picture of the person as possible. This means the biography should include both good and bad
134、 qualities, both accomplishments and mistakes. James Boswell, the author of a great biography of his friend Samuel Johnson, wrote, “And he will be seen as he really was; for I profess to write, not his panegyric (颂文), which must all praise, but his life, which, great and good as he was, must not be
135、supposed to be entirely perfect.”Much biographical writing falls short of Boswells standards. Ancient records of the deeds of kings and emperors were written to praise and flatter these rulers. Writers of saints (圣人) lives in the Middle Ages were often more interested in the moral message than the e
136、vents of a life. Many 19th-century biographers did not reveal any improper or embarrassing details of their subjects lives.
