7.The right name is important in the business world.All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and you'll agree that the name and the product are connected in the everyone's mind.
In many countries,successful trade or brand names are protected by law.This is so that other companies cannot make a product and,in fact,be buying something different.Businesses register a company or a product name with the government.In fact,more than 1,000product and company names are registered every hour.Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products.A good example of this is in the car industry.Some successful names for cars have powerful associations (聯(lián)系).The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong.
When a U.S company decides to sell its product in another country,it has to make sure that the product name translates properly.When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China,it looked for the right nam.It wanted a name that would do two things.One was to present its image(形象)in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name-Coke.It took some efforts before finding the right word-which sounds similar and translates as"happiness in the mouth".Asian company names are not new to the United States.The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful.Finding the right brand name is a big business.Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers.There are even naming companies that specialize in inventing produt names.These companies can charge (要價)up to $100,000a word for their creations.But it's worth it.Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development.

33.Why are trade names protected by law in many countries?D
A.To make companies pay for naming service.
B.To help people choose the best products
C.To present good images of the products.
D.To preventgood images from being copied
34.What can we learn from the passage?B
A.Many companies care about the cost of finding the right names
B.Creative trade names can help companies to have a larger sale
C.The government often does business with naming companies
D.It is considered necessary for cars to be names after animals
35.What's the best title for the passage?A
A.The Business of Names                      
B.The Development of Names
C.The Rules of Naming Business                
D.The Methods of Choosing Names
36.Where can you probably read this article?A
A.In an economic magazine.
B.In a storybook.
C.In a sports newspaper.
D.In a science book.

18.A famous study was done in a school by a professor from a university.At the start of the school year,the teachers were given the names of five children.They were told that these five were the most excellent students in the class.But the fact was that these students were only average,and they were not the best students at all.Well,guess what?At the end of the year,all the five average students scored among the highest in the class.
What made these average students change so much to become top students?The only difference was the change in their teachers'attitude.Because the teachers believed that these five kids were top students,they expected more from them.And so these five average students became to believe and expect more from themselves.So they worked harder to do as well as they could.
Do you know?If you expect the best from people,they'll usually want to give you their best.A great leader said,"Treat a person just how he appears to be on the outside,and you'll make him even worse.But treat a person like he's already a success,and you'll help make him the best he can be."
Like the true story of 7-year-old Johnny,his teacher got so angry with him that one day she said,"Johnny,you're the naughtiest(最調(diào)皮的) boy in this class.I'm sure you'll never change."The next year Johnny had a new teacher.And on the first day of class,she met with Johnny after school and said,"Johnny,I've heard a lot about you!But do you know that I don't believe a word of it."And every day after that,this new teacher treated Johnny as if he was one of the smartest students even when Johnny did naughty things.Later on,Johnny became a school leader,because that's the power of our belief and attitude towards children.

51.The professor started his research byC.
A.telling the five students to work harder than ever before
B.teaching the five children himself
C.telling the teachers that the five students were the best in the class
D.a(chǎn)sking the five children to find a new teacher
52.The five average students became top students mainly because ofD.
A.the professor's study
B.the change in the professor's attitude
C.the teachers'hard work
D.the change in the teachers'attitude
53.Why did the writer tell us the story of 7-year-old Johnny?A
A.To show the importance of encouragement
B.To show that the boy was clever enough
C.To let us know the famous boy
D.To let us know how good his new teacher was
54.According to the story,we can learn thatD.
A.the research began at the end of the school year
B.the students scored highest only because they worked hard
C.if you expect the most from people,you'll get the least
D.little Johnny liked his new teacher very much
55.What does the passage mainly tell us?B
A.If you want to get more,you should have new teachers
B.Attitude and belief can change a person
C.A professor's study can help you score highest
D.Only teachers can make you a top student.

15.The life of the animals in the zoo is different from that in the wildlife park.
    In the zoo,most of the animals are very sad.They have to stay in cages all day and wait for the zoo keepers to feed them.They can't go out of the cages,so they have to walk round and round.
    However,the wildlife park is a good place for them.All the animals there live in the open air. They can run,jump and play happily,and look for food by themselves.They are protected there because people are not allowed to hunt.The most important thing is that they are free and happy in the wildlife park.
    Most of the animals in the wildlife park are friendly.But some are scary,such as lions,wolves and tigers.Don't worry.A special bus can take you to see the animals.You are quite safe inside the bus.How exciting it is if a tiger or a lion watches you through the window!

2.It's Friday evening.My daughters,3 and 9,sigh(嘆息) when I gently take the iPads away from their laps.One by one,our screens are turned off.We light the candles and sit down to have a big meal.
Most people in our lives know they will not be able to contact us by using computer or mobile phones for 24 hours.And so it has gone,every week for three years.We call it our"Technology Shabbat(科技安息日)"which lasts from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday.
I first understood the importance of disconnecting in 2008,when my father was told that he had got brain cancer.Some days he would have only one good hour,and I wasn't willing to be disturbed when I was with him,so I'd turn off my mobile phone.
Soon after,encouraged by National Day of Unplugging(全國斷網(wǎng)斷電日) on March 1st,my husband and I decided to unplug for one full day every week.
During our"Technology Shabbats",time slows.Our Saturdays now feel like mini-vacations.We drive our car or ride our bike.We,with our kids,work in the garden,play board games and cook meals.I feel more balanced.I feel like a better mother,wife and person.
Keeping a balance between the good and the bad of technology is my lasting state.The technology we've created makes it possible for us to share knowledge and take in carious ideas all over the world.But the technology also take something away from us.When we stay up late at night linking(連接) from website to website or sending messages or e-mailing,we click again,and again,and again until we've overloaded(超負荷的).
When we rush into the time full of high technology,it's necessary for us to pay attention to what we are doing online and when we should go off.
I will always remember the most important thing in my family:"Technology Shabbat".
32.When is"Technology Shabbat'in the writer's family?B

A.They drive their car or ride bikes for mini-vacations.
B.They light the candles and sit down to have a big meal.
C.They work in the garden,play board games and cook meals.

19.①In our lives,we sometimes say or do something that may hurt others.Then we need to apologize (道歉).Making an apology helps to improve an injured friendship.
   ②We are already familiar with some expressions for apologizing,such as"Excuse me"or
I'm sorry".There are also other ways to apologize,such as"Pardon"and"I apologize".When you have missed your have missed your friend's party,you might say,"I was really busy that day and just couldn't make it.I sincerely apologize."When you get angry with someone and realize you are wrong,you may say,"I am sorry.I apologize for my poor attitude."
   ③When a person apologizes to you,it is necessary to reply politely,"It's all right,"or"Never mind."If the situation is necessary to reply politely,"It's all right,"or"Never mind."If the situation is more serious and the person is really sincere,you might say,"I understand how you feel,"or"We all make mistakes."
Sometimes people apologize not for having done something wrong,but for the inconvenience they have caused.On the building under repair you may see sins reading,"We are rebuilding our store to serve you better.Please pardon our dust."In the supermarket you may hear a salesperson say,"I'm sorry it has been sold out today.Would you please come tomorrow?"
⑤People sometimes are embarrassed to make an apology,because they do not want to lose face.Yet there are ways to make an"indirect apology".Making an apology on the phone is not a direct or very personal way of apologizing,but it is sometimes the best choice.If one is not so familiar with the other and they might feel there is a chance of unpleasantness,some"distance"is often safer and understandable.
Learning how to apologize is important in our life.We don't lose face when we apologize.Instead,we'd lose face if we never say sorry for our mistakes.
A.How to give an answer to an apology
B.The ways of making an apology
C.Why should we make an apology
D.How to avoid (避免) a face-to-face apology

13.We all dream about things that we would like to do we hope to achieve in the future.But are everybody's dreams the same?Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams,in which thousands of students across China took part in it.
What are the hopes of teenagers?
We received several different answers to the question:what would you like to do after finishing your education?It seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible,so that they can help provide better lives for their parents.Other students hope to continue studying after finishing school and to go to university.Although money is important,many teenagers said they want to do jobs they enjoy.According to the survey,the most popular choice of job is computer programming.
What are the dreams of teenagers?
Teenagers have all kinds of dreams.Some are more realistic than others.For example,many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup,maybe working as translators or tour guides.And quite a few said they dream of going to the moon one day.
According to the survey,less realistic dreams are also common,but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams.Quite a few dream of becoming famous,perhaps famous sports people or singers.Some said they'd like to go on exciting trips; one students said she'd love to sail across the Pacific Ocean.And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said they'd like to be able to fly!
Conclusion It was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes.It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job.On the other hand,students dream of very different things:good things,and even crazy things.It is very important to dream,so hold on your dreams; one day they may just come true.

A survey about some Chinese students'(96)hopes and dreams.
Hopes of teenagersSome students hope to start working as soon as possible.
Others hope to continue studying after finishing school and to go to university
(97)Computer programmingis the most popular choice of job.
Dreams of teenagersSome students have more realistic dreams such as working as volunteers at the 2008Olympics,etc.
Others have less realistic dreams such as becoming famous sportspeople or singer,(98)going on exciting tripsand sailing across the Pacific Ocean.
Some students(99)have impossible dreamssuch as being able to fly.
Conclusion:The survey shows that teenagers(100)have similar hopes and different dreams
