22、（共16小题；每小题2分，满分32分）AMaking an advertisement for television often costs more than a movie. For example, a two-hour movie costs 6 million to make. A TV commercial can cost more than 6,000 a second. And that does not include the cost of paying for airtime. Which is more valuable, the program or the ad?

23、 In terms of money and making money is what television is all about the commercial is by far the more important.Research, market testing, talent, time and money all come together to make us want to buy a product. No matter how bad we think a commercial is, it works. The sales of Charm went up once t

24、he ads began. TV commercials actually buy their way into our head. We, in turn, buy the product.And the ads work because so much time and attention are given them. Here are some rules of commercial ad making. If you want to get the lower-middle-class buyer, make sure the announcer has a tough, manly

25、 voice. Put some people in the ad who work with their hands. If you want to sell to an upper-class audience, make sure that the house, the furniture, and the hairstyle are types that the group identifies with. If you want the buyer feel superior to the character selling the product, then make that p

26、erson so stupid or silly that everyone will feel great about himself or herself.We laugh at commercials. We dont think we pay that much attention to them. But evidence shows we are kidding ourselves. The making of a TV commercial that costs so much money is not kid stuff. Its big, big business. And

27、its telling us what to think, what we need, and what to buy. To put it simply, the TV commercial is a form of brainwashing.56、TV commercials are more important than other programs to television because .AThey bring in great profits.BThey require a lot of money to make.CThey are not difficult to prod

28、uce.DThey attract more viewers than other programs.57、The purpose of all the efforts made in turning out TV commercials is .ATo persuade people to buy the product.BTo show how valuable the product is.CTo test the market value of the product.DTo make them as interesting as TV movies.58、From the rules

29、 set for making commercial ads, we can see that .AThe lower-middle-class buyer likes to work with his hand.BThe more stupid the characters, the more buyers of the product.CAd designers attract different people with different skills.DAn upper-class buyer is more interested in houses and furniture tha

30、n a lower-middle-class buyer.59、The undrelined word “kidding”(para. 4) most probably means .Abehaving as a child.Blaughing at.Cmaking fun of.Dnot telling the truth to.60、It is believed by the writer that .AFew people like to watch TV commercials.BTV commercials are a good guide to buyers.CTV commerc

31、ials often make people laugh.DPeople do not think highly of TV commercials.BA graded reader is a book containing simplified languages used to help learners master the language. Readers come in different levels, from beginners to advanced. English learners need to choose a reader that is suitable for

32、 their level.Why use readers? Lots of research shows that extensive reading improves all aspects of language learning, including vocabulary, speaking skills, fluency(流利),writing skills and reading comprehension.Reading is a way of learning English without classes or a teacher. It helps develop learn

33、er independence. And while reading graded readers, learners dont have to run to a dictionary because the language is at their level.How do I get started? The entire class can read the same book or different books at different times.How do I know the right level? If your class is all reading the same

34、 book, choose one that is appropriate for their level. If your students are reading different books, you can have a selection of books at different levels. In this case, dont worry too much about the level. A learner who is interested in detective stories might read a higher level book if the motiva

35、tion(动机)is there.How to read the book depends on students age, motivation and class time available. Some classes like to read silently, others like to read aloud in small groups and some enjoy being read to by the teacher. Be sensitive to the class and ask for their opinions.Some pre-reading activit

36、ies are needed. Before students open a book, it is important to spark interest in the story and in the whole process of reading. For example, ask them to guess what the story is from cover, chapter titles and let students put them in the best order, or discuss the author.During reading, choose a sui

37、table chapter or chapters that can be broken down to make a comic strip (连环漫画). Or students select a part of the book to make into a radio play. Students can also become journalists and report on parts of the story. Choose a piece of action and have students write it up. Besides, students can role-p

38、lay an interview with a character.61、Who do you think the passage is written mainly for? AStudents.BParents.CTeachers.DPupils.62、When do you think students can become journalists and report on parts of the story?ABefore reading.BDuring reading.CDuring warming up.DAfter reading.63、From the passage, w

39、e can learn that .Areaders can make classroom funBreading can help develop learners dependenceCsome pre-reading activities are not neededDextensive reading improves all aspects of language learningCAll of us eat every day, but most of us dont understand nutrition(营养). How much do you know about good

40、 nutrition? Are the following statements true or false?1. People who dont eat meat can stay healthy. True. As long as people eat enough milk, eggs and meat alternates(替代物), they can get enough protein.2. Fresh vegetables cooked at home are always more nutritious than canned vegetables. False. The di

41、fference depends more on how vegetables are prepared than whether they are fresh or canned. Vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a large quantity of vitamins.3. Food eaten between meals can be just as good for health as food eaten at regular meals. True. Nutritional value depends on what typ

42、es of food you eat, not when you eat them. Eating an egg or an orange between meals can contribute to a good diet.4. Taking extra vitamins beyond the recommended daily allowances wont give you more energy. True. Its widely believed that extra vitamins provide more energy. But taking more than the ba

43、by needs doesnt make it function better, just as overfilling your gas tank doesnt make your car run better.5. Natural vitamins are better supplements(补充)for the diet than synthetic vitamins. False. There is no difference. A vitamin has the same properties(性质)and specific chemical structure whether m

44、ade in a laboratory or taken from plant or animal parts.6. Older people need the same amount of vitamins as younger people. True. Older people need the same quantity of vitamins as younger people although they need fewer calories. Certain illnesses raise the requirements for some vitamins, but that

45、is true for the young as well as the old.7. Food grown in poor soil is lower in vitamins than food grown in rich sold. False. The vitamins in our foods are made by the plants themselves. They dont come from the soil. However, the minerals in a plant depend on the minerals in the soil.If you have ans

46、wered these questions correctly, you can say you know much about food and nutrition by todays standards. But remember that nutrition is a growing science and that may be aged as new information is obtained.64、The main purpose of the passage is to .Alist todays standards of some food and nutritionBin

47、troduce what should be eaten and what notCexplain what is helpful to your health and what is notDtest our nutrition IQ by judging the problems listed65、From the surrounding words and sentences we know that the underlined phrase “contribute to” means .Ahelp to bring aboutBtake the place ofCmake room

48、forDturn to66、The underlined word “synthetic” most probably means in Chinese. A不同的B特别的C合成的D天然的DDo we think only with the brain? Hardly. The brain is like a telephone exchange. It is the switchboard, but not the whole system. Its function is to receive incoming signals, make proper connections, and s

49、end the messages through to their destination. For efficient service, the body must function as a whole.But where is the “mind”? Is it in the brain or perhaps in the nervous system? After all, can we say that the mind is in any particular place? It is not a thing, like a leg, or even the brain. It i

50、s a function, an activity. Aristotle, twenty-three hundred years ago, observed that the mind was to the body what cutting was to the ax. When the ax is not in use, there is no cutting. So it is with the mind. “Mind,” said Charles H. Woolbert, “is what the body is doing.”If this activity is necessary

51、 for thinking, it is also necessary for carrying thought from one person to another. Observe how people go about the business of ordinary conversation. If you have never done this carefully, you have a surprise in store, for good conversationalists are almost constantly in motion. Their heads are co

52、ntinually nodding and shaking sometimes so vigorously that you wonder how their necks can stand the strain. Even the legs and feet are active. As for the hands and arms, they are seldom still for more than a few seconds at a time.These people, remember, are not making speeches. They are only common

53、people trying to make others understand what they have in mind. They are not conscious of movement. Their speech is not studies. They are just human creatures in a human environment, trying to adapt themselves to a social situation. Yet they converse, not only with oral language, but with visible ac

54、tions that involve practically every muscle in the body. In short, because people really think all over, a speaker must talk all over if he succeeds in making people think.67、Which of the following is the best title for the passage?ABodily CommunicationBSpoken LanguageCBodily ActionsDConversations68

55、、Which of the following statements would the author agree with?AThinking is a social phenomenonBThinking is only a brain functionCThinking is a function of the nervous systemDThinking is the total sum of bodily activities69、In communication, it is essential not only to employ speech, but also .Ato s

56、peak directly to the other personBto use the variety of bodily movementsCto be certain that the other person is listeningDto pay great attention to the other persons behavior70、It can be inferred that the basic function of bodily activity in speech is to .Amake the listener feel emotionalBmake the d

57、escription vividCintensify the speakers spoken wordsDcarry the speakers implied meaning to the listener71、Which of the following is TRUE?AThe brain is compared to a telephone exchange.BThe mind is an activity of the nervous system.CSome people remain still while talking to others.DMany people move t

59、ncomes keep going up over the years, people never seem to become much better off! Prices are rising continuously.The condition is termed one of inflation(通货膨胀), the money supply is becoming inflated so that each unit of it becomes less valuable. People have got used in recent years to higher and hig

60、her rates of inflation. What could be bought ten years ago for one dollar now costs well over two dollars. It seems that this rate of inflation is tending to rise rather than to fall. If in the real world our money incomes go up at the same rate as prices one might think that inflation does not matt

61、er. But it does. When money is losing value it lacks one of the qualities of a good money-stability(稳定)of value.It is no longer acceptable as a store of value; and it becomes an unsuitable standard of deferred(延期)payments. Nobody wants to hold a wasting possession, so people try to get rid of money

62、as quickly as possible. Inflation therefore stimulates people spending, and prevents people from saving.1、From the passage, we can know inflation _.Aseldom happensBis very common at presentCis a mustDhas become less in recent years2、What does inflation mean?APeoples money becomes more valuable.BThe
