　　Television carries more national advertising than any other in the United States． The same is true in some smaller countries such as Spain and Portugal, where it is the only medium reaching a general national audience． In many countries Sweden and Denmark, for example  the state-owned television accepts no advertising． In many other countries the amount of commercial time is extremely limited, as in France, Germany, and Italy． Soviet state-owned television began accepting a limited amount of advertising in 1988．

　　The chief reason for the popularity of television among United States advertisers is that it reaches a vast number of people at the same time． While it can cost well over 100,000 dollars, a 30-second commercial on network television can be seen and heard by as many as 25 million viewers． For manufacturers who must make prospects（潛在的顧客）aware of their products and convince them of its benefits immediately, there is nothing as efficient as television advertising． Because it employs motion as well as words, graphics, sound, and music, television is a valuable medium for products that lend themselves to（適合于）demonstration． No other medium is as effective in showing how quickly and automobile can accelerate or how well a brand of wristwatch will stand up under abuse and continue to run． Similarly, it is an ideal medium for conveying a mood or and emotional benefit for products such as long-distance telephone calls．

1．Which medium carries the most national advertising in Spain?

[　　]

A．Radio．　　　　　　 B．Newspaper．

C．Television．　　　　D．Internet．

2．State-owned television accepts ads in the following countries except ______．

[　　]

[ ]

A．TV can make advertisers aware of their products

C．TV covers a large audience at the same time

D．it can be seen and heard by over 25 million local viewers

4．The word commercial in the 2nd paragraph means ______ ．

[　　]

A．advertisement　　　B．business

5．The writer of this passage is ______ about the benefits of TV advertising．

Wellington

　　As the capital city and geographical centre of New Zealand, Wellington is the focus of the country's financial and political power.

　　Wellington became the capital in 1865 and by 1870, the population was growing at a brisk rate and it began to assume that cosmopolitan air that has characterised it ever since. While construction has changed the skyline with modern skyscrapers, Wellington has also retained many of its historic sites and buildings. Among these are Antrim House, the Colonial Cottage Museum, Old St Paul's Cathedral, Katherine Mansfield's Birthplace, the Parliament Buildings, including the 'Beehive' and the many city villas which cling precariously to the steep hillsides. Downtown Wellington on Lambton Quay is popular with shoppers. Don't miss a trip on the Cable Car which takes you from Lambton Quay to Kelburn, the Botanic Gardens and superb harbour views. For a different perspective of the city, take a harbour cruise or a ferry trip to Eastbourne, where there are craft shops, galleries and cafes. Wellington also has a strong yachting fraternity. The city has long been recognised as the cultural and arts capital of New Zealand. It is home to the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, the Royal New Zealand Ballet, opera companies, theatre and a large number of art galleries, including the National Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa. The cosmopolitan nature of Wellington is reflected in the 350 restaurants and cafes serving innovative New Zealand and ethnic cuisine. North of Wellington is the Kapiti Coast whose main attractions are the world-class Southward Car Museum, the Lindale Agricultural Centre and the superb Maori craftsmanship of the Rangiatea Church at Otaki. Further inland is the lively university and agricultural city of Palmerston North situated in the Manawatu region.

1．From paragraph 1, we know that ________.

2．For how many years has Wellington been the capital of New Zealand?

[　　]

A．More than 120 years.
B．Less than 100 years
C．since 1870
D．Before 1865

3．Amy likes shopping very much, where should she go when she stays in New Zealand?
