Money spent on advertising is money spent as well as any I know of. It serves directly to bring about a rapid sale of goods at reasonable prices, so setting up a firm home market and making it possible to provide for export (出口) at good prices. By drawing attention to new ideas it helps greatly to raise standards of living. By helping to increase demand it causes an increased need for labour, and is therefore a nice way to fight unemployment. It lowers the costs of many services: without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much, the price of your television program would need to be doubled, and travel by bus or subway would cost more.

　　And perhaps most important of all, advertising provides a promise of reasonable value in the products and services you buy. Besides the fact that twenty-seven Acts of Parliament(國會(huì))govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare produce anything that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements. He might fool some people for a little while through misleading advertising. He will not do so for long, for the public has the good sense not to buy the poor goods more than once. If you see product frequently advertised, it is the proof I know that the product does what is promised for it, and that it has good value.

　　Advertising does more for the good of the public than any other force I can think of.

　　There is one more point I feel I ought to touch on. Recently I heard a well-known television person declared that he was against advertising because it persuades rather than informs. He was telling us the real difference. Of course advertising tries to persuade.

　　If its message were nothing but information, that would be difficult to get more people to buy, for even the choice of the colour of a shirt is a bit persuasive (有說服力的)--advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention. But perhaps that is what the well-known television person wants.

By the first sentence of the passage the writer means that ___.

　 A. he is fairly familiar with the cost of advertising

　 B. everybody knows well that advertising is a waste of money

　 C. advertising costs more money than everything else

　 D. money on advertising is worth spending

In the passage, which of the following is NOT included in the advantages of advertising?

　 A. Getting greater fame.              B. Providing more jobs.

　 C. Raising living standards.           D. Reducing newspaper cost.

The writer thinks that the well-known TV person is _____.

　 A. quite right in passing his judgment on advertising

　 B. interested in nothing but the buyers' attention

　 C. correct in telling the difference between persuasion and information

　 D. obviously unfair in his views on advertising

In the writer's opinion, ________.

　 A. advertising can seldom bring material interest to man by providing information

　 B. advertising informs people of new ideas rather than wins them over

　 C. there is nothing wrong with advertising in persuading the buyer

　 D. the buyer is not interested in getting information from an advertisement

Before discussing different kinds of emotions, let us briefly talk about how researchers   1 bodily processes, actions and behavior, and how this relates to what we do in our daily lives when we observe emotions in  2  .
Bodily processes can be directly measured by   3  of a polygraph. (測謊器)When a polygraph is skillfully used to   4  how we react bodily with what we are   5 , it is called a "lie detector". Bodily processes can also be measured  6 . This is what we do when we observe someone blushing (臉紅). However, we are not always  7  of what bodily processes respond to.
Measuring action   8  behavior is the other way researchers assess the emotions.    9 , one measure of fear of snakes is how  10 a person will go to the snake. Another procedure is to have a person  11  how afraid he is, or how he feels, in this way, researchers have 12  the so-called "fear thermometer" to assess a person’s fear.  13  our everyday living, we do very much the same thing. Only not too   14 . We react to what a person does, what he says, 15  he says it, and how he looks. Is he smiling? Is his voice trembling? We put all this  16  together to infer what a person is feeling.
  17 , we do not always act as we feel. Sometimes we do things that we don’t feel like doing.  18  we say we feel one way and then we act another. Actors, for example, successfully learn to "make believe" emotions, or learn to   19  them. Thus we   20  always tell what a person is feeling by what he says or by what he does.

Scientists have long understood the key role that oceans play in controlling the Earth’s climate. Oceans cover 70 per cent of the surface of the globe and store a thousand times more heat than the atmosphere does. What’s newer is the understanding of how this key component(組成部分) of our climate system responds to global warming.
A brake on global warming—for now
One of the oceans’ most important climate functions is absorbing heat and carbon dioxide(CO2), one of the gases that causes global warming. Acting as something absorbing heat, the oceans have absorbed huge amounts of heat and CO2 in the last forty years.
Fujita explains, “the oceans are saving us from faster climate change—they are putting a brake on the climate system.”
“That’s the good news,” he adds. “The bad news is that the oceans only slow the atmospheric warming. Once the oceans come to balance with a greenhouse-gas warmed earth, the extreme heat will remain in the atmosphere and things will get much hotter.” But where and how the oceans release this slowly increased heat is uncertain. And as the ocean stores heat, fragile(脆弱的) underwater ecosystems are struggling.
The most recent scientific report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) also notes with concern that the ocean is acidifying(酸化) because of increased absorption of atmospheric CO2. and thus causing a threat to shell-forming species.  Sharp increase in CO2 levels will cause further acidification of the ocean.
Currents distributing heat
Another important role the oceans play is that of distributor(散布者). Oceans deliver heat and life-sustaining nutrition around the globe. Just as blood tube bring oxygen and nutrition to cells in the human body, the ocean’s currents carry oxygen, nutrients and heat throughout the Earth. The ocean distributes 25 to 50 per cent of energy the planet receives from the sun. For example, the Gulf Stream carries heat across the Atlantic. This warm current gives northwestern European a milder climate that it would normally have so far north. A change to the ocean’s circulation patterns could throw Europe into a colder period, even as the rest of the world is experiencing warmer temperatures.
【小題1】 We can infer from the passage that _______.

A．the oceans cause global warmingB．the oceans stop global warming
C．the oceans release nutrients and heatD．the ocean ecosystems face more dangers
【小題2】 From the passage we can learn that ocean’s currents _______.
  1. produce oxygen and nutrients around     
  2. absorb 25-50% of the energy from the sun
  3. distribute the atmosphere hotter        
D.  change the ocean’s circulation patterns
【小題3】 Which of the following are the results of the ocean absorbing heat and CO2?
a. It causes further acidification.        
b. It makes the atmosphere hotter.
c. It balances the oceans with a green-house gas. 
d. It affects shell-forming species.  
e. It makes the oceans act as a heat sponge.           
f. It controls the Earth’s climate.
A．a(chǎn)-c-fB．a(chǎn)-d-fC．b-d-eD．b-c-e
【小題4】 If the ocean’s circulation pattern changed, ______.
A．Asia would suffer a hotter climate.
B．Europe would become hotter
C．the rest of the world would become warmer.
D．the climate of Europe would become colder.

Bursting into the classroom from recess(學(xué)生的課間休息), 15 children take their seats and face the woman they know as Ms. Yang.
“What day is it today?”she asks, in Mandarin(普通話的舊稱) Chinese.
“Confucius’ birthday!”the fifth graders shout in Mandarin.
“Why do we celebrate Confucius’ birthday?”
“Because he’s the greatest teacher in the history of China!”exclaims a brown-haired girl. She too is speaking Mandarin.
English is rarely heard in Lisa Yang’s class at the Chinese American International School(CAIS), despite the fact that few students are native speakers of Mandarin.
The United States is actively trying to increase the group of students in“critical languages”such as Mandarin. The students at CAIS are way ahead in such a trend.
Mandarin explosion in America
Founded 25 years ago, this small private school in San Francisco, USA, does what few other American schools do: It produces fully fluent speakers of Mandarin Chinese, by far the most commonly spoken language in the world.
Mandarin Chinese is suddenly hot in American schools. As China becomes the world’s leading economy sometimes this century, schools in the U.S. are scrambling to add Mandarin to their roster of foreign languages or expand Chinese programs already in place.
“It really is almost unprecedented(無前例的). People are looking at China as a force to be reckoned with…And to ensure that the U.S. has the ability to conduct trade, and to work with the Chinese, certainly having an understanding of Chinese language and culture is an advantage,”said Marty Abbott of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages(ACTFL)(美國外語教學(xué)協(xié)會(huì)).
Cultural differences in teaching styles
To develop Chinese-language programs has not been smooth. A shortage of trained teachers has made it difficult for some schools to join the race. When schools do get teachers, they often hire them straight from China, and the teachers usually suffer culture shock when they come to the U.S.
Robert Liu remembers his first two years in an American classroom. It was not an easy adjustment. “In China, students respect their teachers,”he said. Liu found that American students, however, expect an active teaching style. He had to use games to engage them rather than lectures.
To avoid many of the problems with foreign teaching styles, the CAIS has been working with the Chinese government to improve training of teachers who are sent to the U.S.
【小題1】Which of the following is the best title?

A．Mandarin speaks to a growing audience in America
B．Chinese-language programs
C．Mandarin Chinese
D．The Chinese American International School(CAIS)
【小題2】What kind of problem is the most difficult to adjust in teaching Chinese in America?
A．To adapt to the life there.
B．To communicate with the American students.
C．To get along well with the American students.
D．To be fit for the cultural differences in teaching styles.
【小題3】The meaning of the underlined word“scrambling”is similar to      .
A．climbingB．rushingC．changingD．beating
【小題4】It can be inferred from the passage that       .
A．the students in Lisa Yang’s class usually speak Chinese
B．there are few American students in Lisa Yang’s class
C．we celebrate Confucius’ birthday because he’s the greatest teacher in the history of China
D．in America the students don’t respect their teachers
