37、ehension, will help you in other subjects as well as in English, and the general principles apply to any language. Naturally, you will not read every book at the same speed. You would expect to read a newspaper, for example, much more rapidly than a physics or economics textbook - but you can raise

38、your average reading speed over the whole range of materials you wish to cover so that the percentage (百分比) grained will be the same whatever kind of reading you are concerned with.The reading passages which follow are all of an average level of difficulty for your stage of instruction. They are all

39、 about five hundred words long. They are about topics of general interest which do not require a great deal of specialized knowledge. Thus they fall between the kind of reading you might find in your textbooks and the much less demanding kind you will find in a newspaper or light novel. If you read

40、this kind of English, with understanding at four hundred words per minute, you might skim (浏览) through a newspaper at perhaps 650700 , while with a difficult textbook you might drop to two hundred or two hundred and fifty. Perhaps you would like to know what reading speeds are common among native En

41、glish-speaking university students and how those speeds can be improved. Tests in Minnesota, U.S.A., for example, have shown that students without special training can read English of average difficulty, for example, Tolstoys War and Peace in translation, at speeds of between 240 and 250 words per m

42、inute with about seventy percent comprehension. Students in Minnesota claim that after twelve half-hour lessons, once a week, the reading speed can be increased, with no loss of comprehension, to around five hundred words per minute.60. Where do you think the passage is taken from?A. A school newspa

43、per run by students.B. The introduction to a book on fast reading.C. The introduction to an English textbook.D. A local newspaper for young people.61 .According to the passage, how fast can you expect to read after you haveattended twelve half-hour lessons in the University of Minnesota?A. You can d

44、ouble your reading speed.B. You can increase your reading speed by four times.C. You can increase your reading speed by three times.D. No real increase in reading speed can be achieved.62. The average speed of untrained native speakers in the University of Minnesota is _.A. about sixty words per min

45、uteB. about two hundred and forty-five words per minuteC. about five hundred words per minuteD. about three hundred words per minute63. According to the passage, the purpose of effective reading with higher speed is most likely to help you _. A. not only in your language study but also in other subj

46、ects B. improve your understanding of an economics textbook C. choose the suitable material to read D. only in your reading of a physics textbook CAdvertising informs consumers about new products available on the market. It gives us information about everything from shampoo to tooth-paste to compute

47、rs and cars. But there is one series problem with this. The “information” is actually very often “misinformation”. It tells us the products, benefits but hides their disadvantages. Advertising not only leads us to buy things that we dont need and cant afford, but it also confuses our sense of realit

48、y.Advertisers use many methods to get us to buy their products. One of their most successful methods is to make us feel dissatisfied with ourselves and our imperfect lives. Advertisements show us who we arent and what we dont have. “Why dont I have any dates(约会)？” a good-looking girl sadly asks in a

49、 commercial. “Here,” replies her roommate, “Try Zoom tooth-paste!” Of course she tried it, and immediately the whole football team falls in love with her. “Thats a stupid commercial,” we might say. But we still buy Zoom tooth-paste out of fear of being unpopular and having no friends.If fear is the

50、negative motive（动机）for buying a product, then wanting a good self-image is the positive reason for choosing it. Each of us has a mental picture of the kind of person we would like to be. For example, a modern young woman might like to think that she looks like a beautiful movie star. A middle-aged m

51、an might want to see himself as a strong, attractive athlete. Advertisers know this. They write specific ads to make certain groups of people choose their products.Advertisers get psychologists to study the way consumers think and their reasons for choosing one brand instead of another. These expert

52、s tell advertisers about the motives of fear and self-image. They also inform them about recent studies with colors and words. They have found that certain colors on the package of an attractive product will cause people to reach out and take that package instead of buying an identical(同一的、相等的) prod

53、uct with different colors.Many people believe that advertising does not affect them. They like to think they make wise choices. Unfortunately, they probably dont realize the powerful effect of advertising. They may not clearly understand that advertisers spend billions of dollars each year in aggres

54、sive(强有力的) competition for our money, and they are extremely successful.64. Advertising _.A. gives us valuable information about new productsB. misinforms usC. doesnt influence us very muchD. doesnt always tell us everything about a product65“A modern young woman might like to think that she looks l

55、ike a beautiful movie star” That meansA. a modern young woman wants to be as attractive as possibleB. every modern young woman wants to act in moviesC. most modern women think that they are beautifulD. modern woman are not always satisfied with themselves66. Advertisers _ to make us buy their produc

56、ts.A. offer very low pricesB. get information from psychologistsC. use similar methodD. need to use better detergent(洗涤剂) and shampoo67. Psychologists tell advertisers_.A. which brands of tooth-paste to produceB. to stop influencing shoppersC. about peoples motives for buying D. how much money to sp

57、end on television D More ice melted from the surface of the Greenland Ice Sheet this year than ever before recorded, report scientists from the University of Colorado. The same team found that the extent of Arctic sea ice reached the lowest level in the satellite record in 2002, offering further pro

58、of that climate change is already changing the Arctic.Researchers from the University of Colorado (UC) say that the speeding up melting appears to be linked to changes in Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation patterns. The study also found temperatures during the summer of 2002 were warmer tha

59、n usual over much of the Arctic Ocean.“It is likely that sea ice extent will continue to decline over the 21st century as the climate warms,” researchers added. “With these trends, we may see a 20 percent reduction in the yearly average sea ice by 2050, and by then there might be no ice at all durin

60、g the summer months.”The report was released on Saturday at the yearly fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union, just one week after an announcement by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) that sea ice is melting about nine percent faster than earlier research had showed, an

61、d could disappear entirely by the end of this century.“This trend of disappearing Arctic sea ice is one example of the environmental damage that can be linked to carbon dioxide emissions,” said Morgan, “ When we have the means to reduce CO2 emissions (散发)and prevent further damage, we should do our

62、best. National leaders must act now to improve energy efficiency and increase the use of renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, before its too late.”UC scientists judge that a change in the Greenland climate toward warmer conditions would lead to an increase in the rate of sea level rise, wh
