第1题,1.??<div>Almost every family buys as least one copy of a

three different newspapers. But why do people read
newspapers?</div><div><span> Five hundred years
ago, news of important happenings--battles lost and won, kings or

of dollars for the advertising space, but it is worth the money for

第2题,2.??<font face="Arial"> Americans are pound of
their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few
things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator
operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so
popular in the United States? <br /> Among the
arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most
people they look more professional than civilian（百姓的）clothes. People
have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who
wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears uniform tends to
inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith
in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What
easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter
to lose professional identity（身份）than to step out of uniform? <br
/> Uniforms also have many practical benefits.
They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are
tax-deductible（可减税的）. They are often more comfortable and more
durable than civilian clothes. <br /> Primary
among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and
the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must
wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of
any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change,
until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak,
and act similarly, on the job at least. <br />Uniforms also give
rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often
their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes.
Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional
dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many
types of civilian clothes. </font>
A. <font face="Arial">still judge a man by his clothes </font>
B. hold the uniform in such high regard
C. enjoy having a professional identity <br />
D. will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in
uniform
A. <font face="Arial">suggests quality work </font>
B. discards his social identity
C. appears to be more practical
D. looks superior to a person in civilian clothes
A. <font face="Arial">provide practical benefits to the
wearer</font>
B. make the wearer catch the pubic eye
C. inspire the wearer’s confidence in himself <br />
D. provide the wearer with a professional identity
A. <font face="Arial">are usually helpful</font>
B. have little or no individual freedom
C. tend to lose their individuality
D. enjoy greater popularity
A. <font face="Arial">Uniforms and Society </font>
B. The Importance of Wearing a Uniform
C. Practical Benefits of Wearing a Uniform
D. Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms

第3题,3.??<font face="Arial"> The way people hold to
the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equals happiness
actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If
fun and pleasure are equal to happiness, then pain must be equal to
unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not,
things that lead to happiness involve some pain.<br
/> As a result, many people avoid the very
attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain
brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional
achievements, religious commitment, and self-improvement.<br
/> Ask a bachelor (单身汉) why he resists marriage
even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is
honest, he will tell you that he is afraid of making a
commitment(承担义务), for commitment is in fact quite painful. The
single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement. Marriage
has such moments, but they are not its most
distinguishing(独特的)features.<br /> Couples with
infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a
three-day vacation. I don’t know any parent who would choose
the word fun to describe raising children. But couples who decide
not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up
or of playing with a grandchild. <br />
Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do
with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates
time: now we can devote more hours to the activities that can
genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that
new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our
happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now
understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually
may not be happy at all. </font>
A. he is unwilling to take on family responsibilities
B. <font face="Arial">he believes that life will be more cheerful
if he remains single</font>
C. he finds more fun in dating than in marriage
D. he fears it will put an end to all his fun and excitement
A. a moral duty
B. <font face="Arial">a thankless job</font>
C. a rewarding task
D. a source of pain
A. hatred
B. misunderstanding
C. <font face="Arial">pride</font>
D. carelessness
A. have as much fun as possible during his lifetime
B. make every effort to free oneself from pain
C. <font face="Arial">put up with pain under any conditions</font>
D. tell the difference between happiness from fun
A. Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.
B. <font face="Arial">One must know how to gain happiness.</font>
C. It is important to make commitment.
D. It is pain that leads to happiness.

第4题,4.??<font face="Arial">Advertising is a way of bringing
information to the public for the purpose of selling a product, a
service, an idea, or an event. The information is transmitted by
means of the printed word or over the air. It may be presented as a
simple statement of fact, or, as is more often the case, it may be
given in colorful or even emotional language. All advertising is
meant to encourage people to do some specific things, such as to buy
a product, order a service, join an organization, attend a meeting,
or think sympathetically about a situation. Each advertisement is
paid for by a person, a group, an organization, or a business,
enterprise wanting to advance his or its goals.<br />In a modern
society, everyone uses advertising in one way or another. A person
may get a job by answering a classified ad. He may decide to join an
organization whose advertisements express ideas that interest him.

usually led or influenced by advertising. Advertisements may also
influence his choice of a vacation spot, restaurant, or recreational
activity.<br />Product advertising is closely related to selling
and, in most cases, is part of an overall selling program. Such
advertisements are meant to make people familiar with products and
eager to buy them. This type of advertising is an indirect selling
tool, because the actual selling job is done later in a store or by
a salesman who calls on the buyer.</font>
