Dear Miss Wang,

Knowing that our library is going to buy books, I’ d like to give some advices.

Popular science books is what we need most. Usually popular science books explain basic principles of nature in a simple and interesting way. They helped us understand science better and arouse our curiosity scientific discoveries.

In addition to read for knowledge, we read for fun and inspiration. That is why I recommend other category of books: literary books. Classic works, written by masters, present great thoughts through fascinated stories and language. They not only offer us a joy and excitement, but also encourage us to think critical.

I’ll be glad whether you can consider my recommendation.

Yours sincerely,

Leo

Hong Kong, a city of seven million—and growing fast. By the year 2050 Hong Kong’s population will almost double. Where will these people live?

There’s only one place to go—up. Fast forward 50 years．This is the tallest man-made structure on the planet. Its name：Millennium Tower. It would stand twice as tall as anything built before. Over 60 thousand people would live or work here. Millennium’s designers think it represents the best solution for the coming population explosion.

It would cost ten billion dollars and consume more building materials than any single nation could produce. David Nelson, one of Millennium’s key designers, said：“It would be a massive project and a world project. But to actually realize it, resources would have to come from all over the globe. The challenge and the motivation for doing it would be to realize one of the world’s largest and most complex construction projects.”

Millennium would be more complex than anything ever built. So its builders won’t know for sure the building is safe until it’s up, and they can’t afford to make an error. Massive earthquakes have brought down entire cities in this part of the world. Can Millennium’s designers make it immune to these quakes of the earth?

For Millennium, like all the other buildings, safety is just one concern among many. It will need to be a home, one that welcomes people in. Getting people into the building and making sure they have a great experience well be what makes Millennium successful, but how to do it? For the design team, the secret was to bring all the elements of city life within. Cafes and restaurants, theatres and stores would provide entertainment. Health clubs, even schools and medical clinics would also serve the towers’ residents.

Millennium’s designers have proven something. Things that seem impossible today, might just become reality tomorrow. The engineering problems have, for the most part, already been solved. Our achievements are limited only by our imaginations.

【1】Why did the designers decide to build Millennium?

A．Because they wanted to build the world’s most complex building.

B．Because Hong Kong’s population will greatly increase.

C．Because Hong Kong is developing fast as an international city.

D．Because it can bring huge profit after it is put to use.

【2】What is TRUE about the project?

A．It will be completed in the year 2050.

B．It can accommodate all the residents in Hong Kong.

C．It is designed by designers from all over the globe.

D．It has to be strong enough to stand earthquakes.

【3】The success of Millennium mainly relies on _______.

A．how many resources will be used

B．how many nations will work together

C．whether people can enjoy their life in it

D．whether it is safe for people to live in

【4】How does the writer develop this passage?

A．By providing descriptions. B．By using figures.

C．By giving examples. D．By analyzing causes.

The traditional distinction between products that satisfy needs and those satisfy wants is no longer adequate to describe classes of products. In today’s prosperous societies, the distinction has become unclear because so many wants have been turned into needs．A writer, for instance, can work with paper and pencils. These are legal needs for the task．But the work can be done more quickly and efficiently with a word processor. Thus a computer is soon viewed as a need rather than a want.

In the field of marketing, consumer goods are classed according to the way in which they are purchased．The two main classes are convenience goods and shopping goods．Two lesser types are specialty goods and unsought (未被要求的) goods. It must be emphasized that all of these types are based on the way shoppers think about products, not on the nature of the products themselves. What is regarded as a convenience item in France(wine，for example)should be a specialty goods in the United States.

People do not spend a great deal of time shopping for such convenience items as groceries, newspapers, toothpaste, aspirin, and candy. The buying of convenience goods may be done routinely, as some families buy groceries once a week. Such regularly purchased items are called staples. Sometimes convenience products are bought without enough thinking; someone has a sudden desire for an ice cream sundae on a hot day. Or they may be purchased as emergency items.

Shopping goods are items for which customers search. They compare prices. quality, and styles, and may visit a number of stores before making a decision．Buying an automobile is often done this way.

Shopping goods fail into two classes：those that are recognized as basically the same and those that are regarded as different. Items that are looked upon as basically the same include such things as home appliances, television sets, and automobiles．Having decided on the model desired, the customer is primarily interested in getting the item at the most favorable price. Items regarded as essentially different include clothing, furniture, and dishes. Quality, style and fashion will either take precedence(優(yōu)先) over price, or they win not matter at all.

【1】It can be learned from the first paragraph that ________.

A．a(chǎn) writer needs a word processor

B．needs and wants can’t be separated clearly

C．the way to distinguish the products is unimportant

D．a(chǎn) computer is a need rather than a want

【2】The example of wine is used to illustrate that ________.

A．goods are classified differently in different counties

B．the type of a product is determined by its consumers

C．Frenchmen often drink but Americans sometimes do

D．one product may belong to many types

【3】Staples are items that ________.

A．a(chǎn)re convenient to purchase

B．a(chǎn)re purchased without enough thinking

C．people “want but don’t need”

D．people are in constant need of

【4】Shopping goods that are considered as basically the same are those that ________.

A．consumers don’t care where to buy them

B．consumers spend much time searching for

C．meet similar needs of the consumers

D．can be found in nearly every shop
