【題目】As societies develop, their members start to see things not so much according to what they need, but according to what they want. When people have enough money, these wants become demands.
Now, it's important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies(策略). There are various ways of doing this. One way at supermarkets(超市), for example, is to interview(采訪)customers while they're doing their shopping. They can be asked what they prefer to buy and then the results of the research can be studied. This provides information on which to base future marketing strategies. It's also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public, as if they were ordinary customers, to get an idea of how customers act.
Another way to get information from customers is to give them something. For example, some fast food restaurants give away tickets in magazines or on the street that permit customers to get part of their meal for nothing. As well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money, it also allows the managers to get a feel for where to attract customers and which age-groups to attract.
Another strategy used at some well-known parks such as Disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work, touring the park dressed as Mickey Mouse or something like that. This provides them with a perfect chance to examine the scene and watch the customers without being noticed.
【1】 The text is designed for________.
A.managers
B.salesmen
C.researchers
D.customers
【2】 Which of the following can help managers get useful information?
A.Visiting customers themselves.
B.Giving customers free food on the street.
C.Visiting parks as ordinary customers.
D.Asking customers questions at supermarkets.
【3】 What does the word “this” underlined in the last sentence refer to?
A.Visiting Disneyland.
B.Wearing attractive clothes.
C.Acting Mickey Mouse.
D.Dressing up and walking around.
【4】 The main idea of the text is________.
A.how to do market research
B.how to develop marketing strategies
C.how to find out customers' social needs
D.how to encourage customers to spend more money

【題目】閱讀下面的短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項。
B
Tears are nature's way making us feel comfortable. When our eyes are made uncomfortable by some small pieces of pollution, or when we are cutting onions, or when we are exhausted and “red-eyes” from overwork and late hours, tears from in our eyes to clean and refresh them.
Tears are also a sign of strong emotion. We cry when we are sad and we cry when we are happy.
And tears seem to be uniqueness(唯一)of human. We know that animals also experience emotion—fear, pleasure, loneliness—but they do not shed(流)tears. From this we can conclude that tears are closely related to the emotional and biological makeup of the human species.
Biologically speaking, tears are actually drops of saline fluid, which is a little bit salty, produced by a gland(腺)in the body. Because salt is an important component, tears may actually constitute the most conclusive evidence that the human animals are the end product of a long evolutionary(進化的)process that began in the sea.
And it is clear that, in addition to(除了)the emotional benefits, the shedding of tears has a specific biological function as well. Through tears, we can eliminate from our body certain chemicals which build up in response to stress and cerate a chemical imbalance in the body. Crying actually makes us feel better by correcting that imbalance and making us feel good again. And thus the emotional and the biological functions of tears merge(合并)into one and make us even more “human” than we would otherwise be.
【1】According to the passage, human beingsmay have originated in________.
A.the sea
B.the salt
C.chemicals
D.a(chǎn)nimals
【2】Which of the following is NOT a function of tears?
A.Biological.
B.Emotional.
C.Political.
D.Chemical.
【3】According to the article, which of the following is unique to humans?
A.The feeling of loneliness.
B.The state of feeling good.
C.The ability to shed tears.
D.The feeling of fear.
【4】The word “eliminate” probably means________.
A.a(chǎn)dd
B.produce
C.replace
D.remove

【題目】Tourism Problems
Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants(居民)of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely.

It costs a great deal of money to build a large hotels, airports, air terminals, firstclass roads, and other support facilities(設(shè)施)needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major internationalclass tourism hotel needs as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not
【1】Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT________.
