术语翻译：Arbitral award（）

(A)
Arthur Miller (1915-2005) is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller’s father had moved to the USA from Austria-Hungary, drawn like so many other by the "Great American Dream." However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.
Miller’s most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Lowman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into double with his worth. Willy is "burnt out" and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment: if he can’t do the work, then he is no good to-his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.
When it was first staged in 1949, the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.
Miller died of hear failure at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut, on the evening of February 10, 2005, the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.
After it was first staged, Death of a Salesman（）

A:achieved huge success B:won the first Tony Award C:was warmly welcomed by salesmen D:was severely attacked by dramatists

Britain’s Solo Sailor

Ellen MacArthur started sailing when she was eight, going out on sailing trips with her aunt.
She loved it so much that she saved her money for three years to buy her first small sailing boat. When she was 18, she sailed alone around Britain and won the "Young Sailor of the Year" award.
But Ellen really became famous in 2001. Aged only 24, she was one of only two women who entered the Vendee Globe round the world solo race, which lasts 100 days. Despite many problems, she came second in the race out of 24 competitors and she was given a very warm welcome when she returned.
Ambition and determination have always been a big part of Ellen’s personality. When she was younger, she lived in a kind of hut for three years while she was trying to get sponsorship to compete in a transatlantic race. Then she took a one-way ticket to France, bought a tiny seven meter class mini yacht, slept under it while she was repairing it, and then she raced it 4,000 kilometers across the Atlantic in 1997, alone for 33 days.
Ellen has had to learn many things, because sailing single-handed means that she has to be her own captain, electrician, sail maker, engineer, doctor, journalist, cameraman and cook. She also has to be very fit, and because of the dangers of sleeping for long periods of time she’s in the middle of the ocean, she has trained herself to sleep for about 20 minutes at a time.
And she needs courage. Once, In the middle of the ocean, she had to climb the mast of a boat to repair the sails at four o’clock in the morning, with 100kph winds blowing around her. It took her many hours to make the repairs. Ellen says, "I was exhausted when I came down. It’s hard to describe how it feels to be up there. It’s like trying to hold onto a big pole, which for me is just too big to get my altos around, with someone kicking you all the time and trying to shake you off."
But in her diary, Ellen also describes moments which make it all worthwhile: "A beautiful sunrise started the day, with black clouds slowly lit by the bright yellow sun. I have a very strong feeling of pleasure, being out here on the ocean and having the chance to live this. I just feel lucky to be here./
In the Vendee Globe race, Ellen won ______.

A:a gold medal B:the "Best Women Sailor" award C:the second place D:the "Young Sailor of the Year" award
