C
There is a place where Christmas lives all year long. It is called Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland in Frankenmuth, Michigan. The family-owned business calls itself the world’s largest Christmas store. The late Wally Bronner started the business in 1945.
Wayne Bronner, Wally’s son, is president and CEO of what is now a multi-million dollar corporation. He learned the business from an early age. Some of his best memories are traveling to other countries with his father to find new products for the store.
Bronner’s sells more than fifty thousand holiday products from seventy nations. Half of the products cost less than ten dollars. Wayne Bronner says demand for small objects to hang on Christmas trees has expanded over the years. People spend more time, effort and money into decorating their homes with these ornaments(裝飾品), lights and religious scenes. Bronner’s is famous for its nativity scenes which show the birth of Jesus Christ.
Michigan has the nation’s highest unemployment rate. Bronner’s has been affected by the financial crisis, too. But not in reduced sales.
Wayne Bronner said, “Even though people are spending less, we’re having more people visit here. And as a result we’ve actually had a sales increase.” Bronner’s success is also linked to community co-operation and investment. Frankenmuth is a town of five thousand people in eastern Michigan’s farm country. The town was settled by Bavarian Germans in the 1800s. It has kept its traditions alive in buildings and restaurants.
Bavarian cultural themes and Bronner’s huge store bring three million visitors a year. The town is the most popular place for tourists in the state. Bronner’s business is aimed at a single day of the year. But that is not too different from other businesses.
“About half of our business is done in the last quarter of the year, in the last three months. And actually when you compare that with most retailers(零售商), that follows the same pattern.” Wayne Bronner says the family’s long-term planning and willingness to reinvest profits has grown the company into what it is today. Still, it does not hurt to build a business on a holiday which is celebrated worldwide. Currently, about only two percent of sales are overseas. But Wayne Bronner sees room for growth, especially through the Internet.
51. Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland is probably ______.
A. a private business            B. a state-run business
C. the world’s largest store       D. a nationalized corporation
52. Bronner’s mainly sells ______.
A. festival ornaments made by themselves
B. holiday products imported from foreign countries
C. festival ornaments during the summer and winter holidays
D. holiday products to tourists from foreign countries
53. We can learn from the passage that ________.
  A. most of Bronner’s products are expensive
B. people are spending less money on small objects
C. Frankenmuth is a modern town popular with tourists
D. Wally Bronner, founder of Bronner’s, has passed away
54. In what way has the financial crisis affected Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland?
A. Many of its staff have lost their jobs.
B. Only two percent of sales are overseas.
C. The corporation has had an increased sale.
D. People are spending less in Bronner’s.
55. Bronner’s success lies in the following EXCEPT ________.
A. aiming its business at a single day of the year
B. community co-operation and investment
C. the family’s long-term planning
D. the willingness to reinvest profits

A British scientist whose schoolmasters told him he was too stupid to study science has been awarded the Nobel Prize in medicine for his pioneering work on cloning.

At the age of 15, John Gurdon ranked last out of the 250 boys in his school at biology, and was in the bottom set in every other science subject. Sixty-four years later he has been recognized as one of the finest minds of his generation after being awarded the £750,000 prizes, which he shares with Japanese stem cell (干細(xì)胞)researcher Shinya Yamanaka.

John revealed that his school report, which noted that for him to study science at University would be a waste of time, still sits on his desk at the Gurdon Institute in Cambridge. After receiving the report he switched his attention to classics and was offered a place to study at Christ Church, Oxford, but was allowed to switch courses and read zoology instead.

It was at Oxford as a postgraduate student that he published his research on genetics and proved for the first time that every cell in the body contains the same genes. He did so by taking a cell from an adult frog’s intestine (腸), removing its genes and putting them into an egg cell, which grew into a clone of the adult frog.

The idea was controversial at the time because it contradicted previous studies, and it was a decade before his work became widely accepted. But it later led directly to the cloning of Dolly the Sheep by Prof Ian Wilmut in 1996.

He received a call from the Swedish Academy telling him he had won the prize, but he was initially suspicious that the call was a trick by a friend or colleague speaking in a Swedish accent.

56. When John Gurdon was fifteen, he________.

       A. performed badly in science subjects.

       B. ranked last in every subject in his school

       C. showed great interest in working on cloning

       D. was not clever enough to go on with his study

57. According to the passage, the school report________.

       A. meant nothing to John Gurdon

       B. had a long-term effect on John Gurdon

       C. encouraged John Gurdon to work harder on science

       D. advised John Gurdon to study classics at Christ Church

58. How did John Gurdon prove that his idea is right?

       A. By reasoning.                                            B. By questioning.                           

C. By doing experiments                                 D. By quoting(引用) others’ research

59. When John Gurdon was informed of his winning the Nobel Prize, he felt________.

       A. excited                    B. calm                 C. relaxed                   D. doubtful
