Leading stress management experts say that without stress would be dull and unexciting. Stress adds flavor, challenge, and opportunity to life. However, too much stress can seriously affect your physical and mental well-being. A major challenge in today’s stress-filled world is to make the stress in your life work for you instead of against you.In today’s hectic, fast-paced world and with the blooming economy, stress is our constant companion. It comes from mental or emotional activity and physical activity. Too much emotional stress can result in physical illness, such as high blood pressure, ulcers, asthma, irritable colon, headaches, or even heart disease. On the other hand,physical stress from work or exercise rarely causes such ailments. In fact, physical exercise can help you to relax and to handle your mental or emotional stress.Hans Selye, M.D., a recognized expert in the field, has defined stress as a “nonspecific response of the body to a demand”. The key to reducing stress is learning how our bodies respond to those demands. When stress becomes prolonged or particularly frustrating, it can become harmful-causing distress or “bad stress”. Recognizing the early signs of distress and then doing something about them can make a significant difference in the quality of your life.In order to use stress in a positive way and prevent it from becoming distress, you should be aware of your own reactions to stressful events. The body responds to stress by going through specific stages: (1) alarm, (2) resistance, (3) exhaustion. Muscles tense, blood pressure and heart rate rise, and adrenaline and other stress-triggered hormones that increase the level of alertness are released. If the stress-causing conditions continue, your body will need time to make repairs, if that happens, you eventually may develop a physical problem that is related to stress, such as migraine headaches, high blood pressure, backache, or insomnia. That’s why when stress occurs it’s important that you recognize and deal with it in a positive way. While it’s impossible to live completely free of stress and distress, it is possible to prevent some distress as well as to minimize is impact when it can’t be avoided. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to handle stress.Try Physical ActivityWhen you’re nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity. Running, walking, playing tennis, or working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try. Physical exercise will relieve your anxiety and worry and help you relax. Your body and your mind will work together to ease the stress in your life.Share Your StressIt helps to talk with someone about your anxieties and worries. Perhaps a friend, family member, teacher, or counselor can help you achieve a more positiveperspective on what’s troubling you. It you feel your problem is serious, you might seek professional help from a psychologist, psychiatrist or social worker. Knowing when to ask for help is a positive step in avoiding more serious problems later.Take Care of YourselfYou should make every effort to eat well and to get enough rest. If you’re irritable and tense from lack of sleep, or if you’re not eating properly, you’ll be more vulnerable to stressful situations. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult your doctor.Make Time for YourselfSchedule time for both work and reaction. Don’t forget, play can be just as important to your overall well-being as work. You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun. Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.Make a List of the Things You Need to DoStress can result from disorganization and a feeling that “there’s so much to do, and not enough time”. Trying to take care of everything at once can be overwhelming, and as a result, you may not accomplish anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is completed. Give priority to the most important tasks and do those first.Go Ahead and CryA good cry can be a healthy way to bring relief to your anxiety. It might even help you avoid headache or other physical consequence of anxiety and stress.Create a Quiet SceneYou can’t always run away, but you can allow yourself a mental “get-away”. A quiet country scene painted mentally, or on canvas, can transport you from the tension of a stressful situation to a more relaxing frame of mind. You also can create a sense of peace and tranquility by reading a good book or listening to beautiful music.Avoid Self-MedicationWhile you can use prescription or over-the-counter medications to relieve stress temporarily, they do not remove the conditions that caused the stress in the first place.In fact, many medications may be habit-forming and also may reduce your efficiency, thus creating more stress than they eliminate. They should be taken only on the advice of your doctor.RelaxThe best strategy for reducing or avoiding stress altogether is to learn how to relax. Unfortunately, many people try to relax at the same pace that they lead the rest of their lives. That doesn't work. Instead, try tuning out your worries about time, productivity and "doing right". Here are several relaxation techniques you may find helpful:--You should take a deep breath and exhale to help calm your mind, counter your body's natural stress reaction and improve your response.--You should laugh. Many stress management experts advocate laughter as a relaxation technique for relieving tension.--You should take a warm bath or shower. Whether you prefer bubble baths or long hot showers, this is an excellent way to relax after a stressful day.--You should try progressive muscle relaxation. Individual contract and relax each muscle group of your body. Begin by tensing your toes for 10 seconds, then relax them for 20.Work all the way up your body, alternately tensing and relaxing, and finish with your facial muscles.By learning the "art" of relaxation, you’ll find satisfaction in just "being", without trying or striving. Your focus on relaxation, enjoyment and health will reduce stress, anxiety and worry in your life. The result is, you will be calmer, healthier and happier.注意：此部分试题在答题卡1上作答。

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, have been investigating the connection between language and well-being for several years. They have discovered that positive language can lead to better health outcomes, while negative language can have the opposite effect.The study involved 300 participants who were monitored for a period of one year. The participants were asked to keep a daily diary of their interactions with others, including both positive and negative comments. The researchers found that those who used more positive language reported fewer physical symptoms and a greater sense of well-being.Dr. Emily Thompson, the l ead researcher, explained, “We were surprised to see the impact that language can have on our health. It’s not just about what we say, but also how we say it. A gentle tone and supportive language can make a significant difference.”Here are some examples of positive and negative language:Positive Language: “I appreciate your help with the project.”Negative Language: “You always mess up the project.”The researchers also looked at the effects of language on relationships.

Teachers in traditional public schools are typically unionized and receive benefits and pensions.On the other hand, charter schools are publicly funded but operate independently of local school districts.

They also claim that charter schools are more accountable because they are subject to more direct oversight and can be closed if they fail to meet their goals.Opponents of charter schools argue that they take resources away fromtraditional public schools and that they do not provide a level playing field for all students. They also claim that charter schools can be more selective in their admissions process, which may lead to a lack of diversity in the student body.Questions:1、What is a key difference between traditional public schools and charter schools?A) Funding sourceB) CurriculumC) Teacher unionsD) Academic rigor2、According to the passage, what is a potential advantage of charter schools?A) They are subject to fewer regulations.B) They offer more choices for parents.C) They are more likely to receive government funding.D) They typically have a shorter school day.3、What is a common concern expressed by opponents of charter schools?A) They are less accountable for their performance.B) They may lead to a lack of diversity in the student body.C) They are more expensive for local taxpayers.D) They do not follow a standardized curriculum.Answers:1、B) Curriculum2、B) They offer more choices for parents.3、B) They may lead to a lack of diversity in the student body.四、听力理解-新闻报道（选择题，共20分）第一题News ReportA: Good morning, everyone.

Moreover, universities are increasingly collaborating with industry leaders to provide practical training opportunities that prepare students for the challenges of the modern workforce. Critics argue, however, that this shift might come at the cost of undermining the foundational academic disciplines that have historically formed the core of higher education.Questions:1、What is one key purpose of integrating technology incubators in universities according to the passage?A) To reduce the cost of university education.B) To bridge the gap between theory and practice.C) To compete with other universities.D) To focus solely on theoretical knowledge.Answer: B) To bridge the gap between theory and practice.2、According to the text, how are universities preparing students for the modern workforce?A) By isolating them from industry professionals.B) By providing practical training through collaboration with industry leaders.C) By discouraging entrepreneurship.D) By focusing only on historical academic disciplines.Answer: B) By providing practical training through collaboration with industry leaders.3、What concern do critics raise about the new initiatives in universities?A) They believe it will enhance foundational academic disciplines.B) They fear it could undermine the core of higher education.C) They think it will make universities less competitive.D) They are worried about the overemphasis on practical skills.Answer: B) They fear it could undermine the core of higher education.4、Which of the following best describes the role of universities in the current era as depicted in the passage?A) Institutions that strictly adhere to traditional teaching methods.B) Centers that foster innovation and entrepreneurship among students.C) Organizations that discourage partnerships with industries.D) Places that prevent students from engaging with real-world challenges.Answer: B) Centers that foster innovation and entrepreneurship among students.5、How does the passage suggest that technology incubators benefit students?A) By ensuring they only focus on theoretical studies.B) By giving them a platform to turn ideas into products.C) By limiting their exposure to practical experiences.D) By encouraging them to avoid modern workforce challenges.Answer: B) By giving them a platform to turn ideas into products.This set of questions aims to test comprehension skills including inference, detail recognition, and understanding the main idea of the given passage. Remember, this is a mock example and should be used for illustrative purposes only.Second QuestionReading Passage:The Future of Renewable Energy SourcesIn recent years, there has been a growing interest in renewable energy sources due to their potential to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and mitigate the effects of climate change. Solar power, wind energy, and hydropower have all seen significant advancements in technology and cost-efficiency. However, challenges remain in terms of storage and distribution of these energy sources. For solar energy to become a viable primary energy source worldwide, it must overcome the limitations posed by weather conditions and geographical location. Wind energy faces similar challenges, particularly in areas with low wind speeds. Hydropower, while more consistent than both solar and wind energies, is limited。

You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200words following the outline given below:1、对大学生艺术节的看法2、如何组织多种多样的活动3、总结Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following thepassage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Eachchoice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter foreach item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may notuse any of the words in the bank more than once.To understand why we should be concerned about how young people read, it helps to know something about the way the ability to read evolved. Unlike the ability to understand and produce spoken language, the ability to read must be painstakingly 26 by each individual. The “reading circuits” we construct in the brain can be 27 or they can be robust, depending on how often and how 28 we use them.The deep reader enters a state of hypnotic trance(心醉神迷的状态). When readers are enjoying the experience the most, the pace of their reading 29 slows. The combination of fast, fluent decoding of words and slow, unhurried progress on the page gives deep readers time to enrich their reading with reflection and analysis. It gives them time to establish an 30 relationship with the author, the two of them 31 in a long and warm conversation like people falling in love.This is not reading as many young people know it. Their reading is instrumental: the difference between what literary critic Frank Kermode calls “carnal (肉体的) reading” and “spiritual reading.” If we allow our offspring to believe carnal reading is all there is —if we don’t open the door to spiritual reading, through an early 32 on discipline and practice — we will have 33 them of an enjoyable experience they would not otherwise encounter. Observing young people’s34 to digital devices, some progressive educators talk about “meeting kids where they are,” molding instruction around their onscreen habits. This is mistaken. We need,Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it.Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify theparagraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph morethan once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by markingthe corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Space Tourism[A] Make your reservations now. The space tourism industry is officially open for business, and tickets are going for a mere $20 million for a one-week stay in space. Despite reluctance from National Air and Space Administration (NASA), Russia made American businessman Dennis Tito the world’s first space tourist. Tito flew into space aboard a Russian Soyuz rocket that arrived at the International Space Station (ISS) on April 30, 2001. The second space tourist, South African businessman Mark Shuttle worth, took off aboard the Russian Soyuz on April 25, 2002, also bound for the ISS.[B] Lance Bass of ’N Sync was supposed to be the third to make the $20 million trip, but he did not join the three-man crew as they blasted off on October 30, 2002, due to lack of payment. Probably the most incredible aspect of this proposed space tour was that NASA approved of it.[C] These trips are the beginning of what could be a profitable 21st century industry. There are already several space tourism companies planning to build suborbital vehicles and orbital cities within the next two decades. These companies have invested millions, believing that space tourism industry is on the verge of taking off.[D] In 1997, NASA published a report concluding that selling trips into space to private citizens could be worth billions of dollars. A Japanese report supports these findings, and projects that space tourism could be a $10 billion per year industry within the next two decades. The only obstacles to opening up space to tourists are the space agencies, who are concerned with safety and the development of a reliable, reusable launch vehicle.Space Accommodations[E] Russia’s Mir space station was supposed to be the first destination for space tourists. But in March 2001, the Russian Aerospace Agency brought Mir down into the Pacific Ocean. As it turned out, bringing down Mir only temporarily delayed the first tourist trip into space.[F] The Mir crash did cancel plans for a new reality-based game show from NBC, which was going to be called Destination Mir. The Survivor-like TV show was scheduled to air in fall 2001. Participants on the show were to go through training at Russia’s cosmonaut(宇航员) training center, Star City. Each week, one of the participants would be eliminated from the show, with the winner receiving a trip to the Mir space station. The Mir crash has ruled out NBC’s space plans for now. NASA is against beginning space tourism until the International Space Station is completed in 2006.[G] Russia is not alone in its interest in space tourism. There are several projects underway to commercialize space travel. Here are a few of the groups that might take tourists to space: Space Island Group is going to build a ring-shaped, rotating “commercial space infrastructure (基础结构)” that will resemble the Discovery spacecraft in the movie “2001: A Space Odyssey.” Space Island says it will build its space city out of empty NASA space-shuttle fuel tanks (to start, it should take around 12 or so), and place it about 400 miles above Earth. The space city will rotate once per minute to create a gravitational pull one-third as strong as Earth’s.[H] According to their vision statement, Space Adventures plans to “fly tens of thousands ofpeople in space over the next 10-15 years and beyond, around the moon, and back, from spaceports both on Earth and in space, to and from private space stations, and aboard dozens of different vehicles...” Even Hilton Hotels has shown interest in the space tourism industry and the possibility of building or co-funding a space hotel. However, the company did say that it believes such a space hotel is 15 to 20 years away.[I] Initially, space tourism will offer simple accommodations at best. For instance, if the International Space Station is used as a tourist attraction, guests won’t find the luxurious surroundings of a hotel room on Earth. It has been designed for conducting research, not entertainment. How ever, the first generation of space hotels should offer tourists a much more comfortable experience.[J] In regard to a concept for a space hotel initially planned by Space Island, such a hotel could offer guests every convenience they might find at hotel on Earth, and some they might not. The small gravitational pull created by the rotating space city would allow space-tourists and residents to walk around and function normally within the structure. Everything from running water to recycling plant to medical facilities would be possible. Additionally, space tourists would even be able to take space walks.[K] Many of these companies believe that they have to offer an extremely enjoyable experience in order for passengers to pay thousands, if not millions, of dollars to ride into space. So will space create another separation between the haves and have-nots?The most Expensive Vacation[L] Will space be an exotic retreat reserved for only the wealthy? Or will middle-class folks have a chance to take their families to space? Make no mistake about it, gong to space will be the most expensive vacation you ever take. Prices right now are in the tens of millions of dollars. Currently, the only vehicles that can take you into space are the space shuttle and the Russian Soyuz, both of which are terribly inefficient. Each spacecraft requires millions of pounds of fuel to take off into space, which makes them expensive to launch. One pound of payload (有效载重) costs about $10,000 to put into Earth’s orbit.[M] NASA and Lockheed Martin are currently developing a single-stage-to orbit launch space plane, called the Venture Star that could be launched for about a tenth of what the space shuttle costs to launch. If the Venture Star takes off, the number of people who could afford to take a trip into space would move into the millions.[N] In 1998, a joint report form NASA and the Space Transportation Association stated that improvements in technology could push fares for space travel as low as $50,000, and possibly down to $20,000 or $10,000 a decade later. The report concluded that at a ticket price of $50,000, there could be 500,000 passengers flying into space each year. While still leaving out many people, these prices would open up space to a tremendous amount of traffic.[O] Since the beginning of the space race, the general public has said, “Isn’t that great —when do I get to go?” Well, our chance might be closer than ever. Within the next 20 years, space planes could be taking off for the Moon at the same frequency as airplanes flying between New York and Los Angeles.36. Hilton Hotels believes it won’t belong before it is possible to build space hotel.37. Each year 500,000 space tourists could be flying into space if ticket prices could be lowered to$50,000.38. The space agencies are reluctant to open up space to tourists.39. In order for space tourists to walk around and function normally, it is necessary for the spacecity to create a small gravitational pull.40. Within the next two decades, space travel could be as common as intercity air travel.41. Lance Bass wasn’t able to go on a tour of space because he did not pay enough money.42. In one project, people planned create a space city 400 miles above Earth.43. What makes going to space the most Expensive Vacation is the enormous cost involved in the fuel of spacecraft.44. Several tourism companies believe space travel is going to be a new profitable industry.45. The prize for the winner in the fall 2001 NBC TV game show would have been a trip to theMir Space Station.Section CDirections:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) andD). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter onAnswer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.The case for college has been accepted without question for more than a generation. All high school graduates ought to go, says conventional wisdom and statistical evidence, because college will help them earn more money, become "better" people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone. And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending, those who don’t fit the pattern are becoming more numerous, and more obvious. College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students interfere with each other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the intense competition for admission to graduate school. Others find no stimulation in their studies, and drop out—often encouraged by college administrators.Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves—they are spoiled and they are expecting too much. But that’s a condemnation of the students as a whole, and doesn’t explain all campus unhappiness. Others blame the state of the world, and they are partly right. We’ve been told that young people have to go to college because our economy can’t absorb an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds. But disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer absorb an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds, either.Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best, the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school. We may have been looking at all those surveys and statistics upside down, it seems, and through the rosy glow of our own remembered college experiences. Perhaps college doesn’t make people intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, or quick to learn things—maybe it’s just the other way around, and intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, quick-learning people are merely the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place. And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not. This is heresy (异端邪说) to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good, more has to be much better. But contrary evidence is beginning to mount up.46. According to the passage, the author believes that ______.A) people used to question the value of college educationB) people used to have full confidence in higher educationC) all high school graduates went to collegeD) very few high school graduates chose to go to college47. In the 2nd paragraph, "those who don’t fit the pattern" refers to ______.A) high school graduates who aren’t suitable for college educationB) college graduates who are selling shoes and driving taxisC) college students who aren’t any better for their higher educationD) high school graduates who failed to be admitted to college48. The drop-out rate of college students seems to go up because ______.A) young people are disappointed with the conventional way of teaching at collegeB) many young people are required to join the armyC) young people have little motivation in pursuing a higher education,D) young people don’t like the intense competition for admission to graduate school49. According to the passage the problems of college education partly arise from the fact that______.A) society cannot provide enough jobs for properly trained college graduatesB) high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college educationC) too many students have to earn their own livingD) college administrators encourage students to drop out50. In this passage the author argues that ______.A) more and more evidence shows college education may not be the best thing for highschool graduatesB) college education is not enough if one wants to be successfulC) college education benefits only the intelligent, ambitious, and quick-learning peopleD) intelligent people may learn quicker if they don’t go to collegePassage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.More and more, the operations of our businesses, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap substantial rewards. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment.It’s easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers.Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it’s disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may have been the victims of uncommonly bad luck.For example, a certain keypunch (键盘打孔) operator complained of having to stay overtime to punch extra cards. Investigation revealed that the extra cards she was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off (向……透露) the company that was being robbed.Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled(耍弄) the most confidential records right under the noses of the company’s executives, accountants, and security staff. And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.51. It can be concluded from the passage that ______.A) it is still impossible to detect computer crimes todayB) computer crimes are the most serious problem in the operation of financial institutionsC) computer criminals can escape punishment because they can’t be detectedD) people commit computer crimes at the request of their company52. It is implied in the third paragraph that ______.A) many more computer crimes go undetected than are discoveredB) the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problemC) most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimesD) most computer criminals who are caught blame their bad luck53. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?A) A strict law against computer crimes must be enforced.B) Companies need to impose restrictions on confidential information.C) Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputation.D) Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes.54. What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught?A) With bad reputation they can hardly find another job.B) They will be denied access to confidential records.C) They may walk away and easily find another job.D) They must leave the country or go to jail.55. The passage is mainly about ______.A) why computer crimes are difficult to detect by systematic inspectionB) why computer criminals are often able to escape punishmentC) how computer criminals manage to get good recommendations from their formeremployersD) why computer crimes can’t be eliminatedPart IV Translation (30 minutes)Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.

Digital AgeWomen in 2011 made no significant gains in winning more top US business jobs, according to a study, but the head ofthe study said women are poised to make 36 in the year ahead.The number of women who were board directors, corporate officers or top earners at Fortune 500 companies remained 37 unchanged, said the study by Catalyst, a nonprofit group that 38 opportunities for women in business.The percentage of companies with women on the board of directors was 15.1 percent this year, compared with 14.8 percent in 2010, Catalyst said.Also, the percentage of corporate officer positions 39 by women was 15.7 percent in 2011 and 15.4 percent in 2010, it said. The percentage of top earners in 2011 who were women was 6.2 percent, compared to 6.7 percent in 2010, it said.The research on the Fortune 500 companies was 40 on data as of March 31, 2011. The slight changes in the numbers are not considered 41 significant, Catalyst said.Nevertheless, given the changes in U.S. politics, thefuture for women in business looks more 42 , said Ilene Lang,president and chief executive 43 of Catalyst."Overall we're 44 to see change next year," Lang said."When we look at shareholders, decision makers, thegeneral public, they're looking for change. ""What they're basically saying is, ' Don't give us 45 ofthe status quo ( 现状 ). Get new ideas in there, get some freshfaces,'" she said.A. officerB. changesC. basedD. positionsE. moreF. promisingG. businesslikeH. surveyingI. essentiallyJ. stridesK. promotesL. statisticallyM. confused N. held O. expectingHow Marketers Target KidsA.Kids represent an important demographic to marketersbecause they have their own purchasing power, they influencetheir parents' buying decisions and they are the adultconsumers of the future. Industry spending on advertising tochildren has exploded in the past decade, increasing from amere $100 millidn in 1990 to more than $2 billion in 2000.B. Parents today are willing to buy more for their kidsbecause trends such as smaller family size, dual incomes andpostponing children until later in life mean that familieshave more disposable income. As well, guilt can play a rolein spending decisions as time-stressed parents substitutematerial goods for time spent with their kids. Here are someof the strategies marketers employ to target kids：Pester (纠缠) PowerC. Today's kids have more autonomy and decision-making power within the family than in previous generations,so it follows that kids are vocal about what they want their parents to buy. "Pester power" refers to children's abilityto nag their parents into purchasing items they may not otherwise buy. Marketing to children is all about creating pester power, because advertisers know what a powerful force it can be.D. According to the 2001 marketing industry book Kid fluence, pestering or nagging can be divided into two categories--"persistence" and "importance". Persistence nagging (a plea, that is repeated over and over again) is notas effective as the more sophisticated "importance nagging". This latter method appeals to parents' desire to provide the best for their children, and plays on any guilt they may have about not having enough time for their kids.The Marriage of Psychology and MarketingE. To effectively market to children, advertisers need to know what makes kids tick. With the help of well-paid researchers and psychologists, advertisers now have access to in-depth knowledge about children's developmental, emotional and social needs at different ages. Using research that analyzes children's behaviour, fantasy lives, art work, even their dreams, companies are able to craft sophisticated marketing strategies to reach young people.F. The issue of using child psychologists to help marketers target kids gained widespread public attention in 1999, when a group of U.S. mental health professionals issued a public letter tothe American Psychological Association (APA) urging them todeclare the practice unethical. The APA is currentlystudying the issue.Building Brand Name LoyaltyG. Canadian author Naomi Klein tracks the birth of "brand" marketing in her 2000 book No Logo. According to Klein, the mid-1980s saw the birth of a new kind ofcorporation--Nike, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, to name afew--which changed their primary corporate focus from producing products to creating an image for their brand name. By moving their manufacturing operations to countries with cheap labour, they freed up money to create their powerful marketing messages. It has been a tremendously profitable formula, and has led to the creation of some of the most wealthy and powerful multi-national corporations the worldhas seen.H.Marketers plant the seeds of brand recognition in very young children, in the hopes that the seeds will grow into lifetime relationships. According to the Center for a New American Dream, babies as young as six months of age can form mental images of corporate logos and mascots. Brand loyalties can be established as early as age two, and by the time children head off to school most can recognize hundreds of brand logos. While fast food, toy and clothing companies have been cultivating brand recognition in children for years, adult-oriented businesses such as banks and automakers are now getting in on the act.Buzz or Street MarketingI. The challenge for marketers is to cut through theintense advertising clutter(凌乱) in young people's lives.Many companies are using "buzz marketing" --a new twist onthe tried-and-true "word of mouth" method. The idea is tofind the coolest kids in a community and have them use orwear your product in order to create a buzz around it. Buzz,or "street marketing", as it's also called, can help acompany to successfully connect with the elusive (难找的) teen market by using trendsetters to give them products"cool" status.J. Buzz marketing is particularly well-suited to theInteract, where young "Net promoters" use chat roomsand blogs to spread the word about music, clothes andother products among unsuspecting users.Commercialization in EducationK. School used to be a place where children wereprotected from the advertising and consumer messages thatpermeated their world--but not anymore. Budget shortfalls ( 亏空，差额 ) are forcing school boards to allow corporationsaccess to students in exchange for badly needed cash,computers and educational materials.L. Corporations realize the power of the schoolenvironment for promoting their name and products. A schoolsetting delivers a captive youth audience and implies theendorsement of teachers and the educational system. Marketersare eagerly exploiting this medium in a number of ways,including ： 1 ) sponsored educational materials; 2) supplyingschools with technology in exchange for high company visibility;3) advertising posted in classrooms, school buses,on computers in exchange for funds; 4) contests and incentive programs： for example, the Pizza Hut reading incentives program in which children receive certificates for free pizzaif they achieve a monthly reading goal; 5 ) sponsoring school events.The InternetM. The Internet is an extremely desirable medium for marketers wanting to target children. It's part of youth culture.This generation of young people is growing up with the Interactas a daily and routine part of their lives. Kids are often online alone, without parental supervision. Unlike broadcasting media, which have codes regarding advertising to kids, the Interact is unregulated. Sophisticated technologies make it easy to collect information from young people for marketing research, and to target individual children with personalized advertising.Marketing Adult Entertainment to Kids N . Children are often aware of and want to see entertainment meant forolder audiences because it is actively marketed to them. In a report released in 2000, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) revealed how the movie, music and video games industries routinely market violent entertainment to young children.O.The FTC studied 44 films rated "Restricted", and discovered that 80 per cent were targeted to children under17.Marketing plans included TV commercials run during hours when young viewers were most likely to be watching. The FTC report also highlighted the fact that toys based oncharacters from mature entertainment are often marketed to young children. Mature rated video games are advertised in youth magazines; and toys based on "Restricted" movies and M-rated video games are marketed to children as young as four.Guilt can affect parents' spending decisions becausethey don't have enough time for their kids.47、The Center for a New American Dream pointed out that brand loyalties could be formed as early as age two.48、School boards allow corporations to access to students because they need money and educational materials badly.49、The FTC report highlighted the fact that toys basedon characters from mature entertainment are often marketed to young children.50、For this generation of young people, the Internet isa daily and routine part of their lives.51、According to Kid fluence, "persistence nagging" isless effective than the more sophisticated "importance nagging".52、According to a report released by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, the movie, music and video games industries usually market violent entertainment to young children.53、Buzz marketing is well-suited to the Internet because the interactive environment can spread messages effectively.54、A group of U.S. mental health professionals thinkthat it is unethical to use child psychologists to helpmarketers target kids.55、According to the Pizza Hut reading incentives program, children will receive certificates for free pizza if theyachieve a monthly reading goal.Like most people, I've long understood that I will bejudged by my occupation, that my profession is a gaugepeople use to see how smart or talented I am. Recently, however, I was disappointed to see that it also decides how I'm treated as a person.Last year I left a professional position as a small-town reporter and took a job waiting tables. As someone paid toserve food to people, I had customers say and do things tome I suspect they'd never say or do to their most casual acquaintances. One night a man talking on his cell phonewaved me away, then beckoned ( 表示 ) me back with his finger a minute later, complaining he was ready to order and asking where I'd been.I had waited tables during summers in college and was treated like apeon ( 勤杂工 ) by plenty of people. But at 19years old, I believed I deserved inferior treatment from professional adults. Besides, people responded to medifferently after I told them I was in college. Customers would joke that one day I'd be sitting at their table, waiting to be served.Once I graduated I took a job at a community newspaper. From my first day, I heard a respectful tone from everyonewho called me. I assumed this was the way the professional world worked--cordially.I soon found out differently. I sat several feet away from an advertising sales representative with a similar name. Our calls would often get mixed up and someone asking for Kristen would be transferred to Christie. The mistake was immediately evident. Perhaps it was because money was involved, but people used a tone with Kristen that they never used with me.My job title made people treat me with courtesy. So it was a shock to return to the restaurant industry.It's no secret that there's a lot to put up with when waiting tables, and fortunately, much of it can be easily forgotten when you pocket the tips. The service industry,by definition, exists to cater to others' needs. Still, itseemed that many of my customers didn't get the difference between server and servant. I'm now applying to graduate school, which means someday I'll return to a profession where people need to be nice to me in order to get what they want.I think I'll take them to dinner first, and see how theytreat someone whose only job is to serve them.The author was disappointed to find that _______.A.one's position is used as a gauge to measureone's intelligenceB.talented people like her should fail to geta respectable jobC.one's occupation affects the way one is treated asa personD.professionals tend to look down upon manual workers57、What does the author intend to say by the example in the second paragraph?A.Some customers simply show no respect to thosewho serve them.B.People absorbed in a phone conversation tend to be absent-minded.C.Waitresses are often treated by customers ascasual acquaintances.D.Some customers like to make loud complaints for no reason at all.58、 How did the author feel when waiting tables at theage of 19?A.She felt it unfair to be treated as a mere servantby professionals.B.She felt badly hurt when her customers regarded heras a peon.C.She was embarrassed each time her customers joked with her.D.She found it natural for professionals to treat heras inferior.59、What does the author imply by saying "... many of my customers didn't get the difference between server and servant" ( Line 3, Para. 7)?A.Those who cater to others' needs are destined to be looked down upon.B.Those working in the service industry shouldn't be treated as servants.C.Those serving others have to put up with rough treatment to earn a living.D.The majority of customers tend to look on a servantas a server nowadays.60、The author says she'll one day take her clients to dinner in order to ________A.see what kind of person they areB.experience the feeling of being servedC.show her generosity towards people inferior to herD.arouse their sympathy for people living a humble life61、依据以下短文，回答 {TSE}题。

He told the man to rest for a few days and made the other sailors do his work.Three days later another sailor pretended that he had something wrong with his chest.Once more the captain looked in his medical books and told“sick”man to have a rest.The other sailors were very angry because they had more work to do.The patients had the best food and laughed at their friends when the captain was not looking.At last the mate(船长副手) decided to cure the“sick”men.He mixed up some soap,soot(烟灰),glue(胶水)and other unpleasant things.Then he obtained permission from the captain to give his medicine to the “sick”men.When they tasted the medicine,they really did feel ill.It was so horrible that one of the patients jumped out of hi bunk,ran up on desk and climbed the highest mast on the ship. He did not want any more medicine.The mate told both of the men that they must take the medicine every half an hour,night and day.This soon cured them.They both said they felt better and wanted to start word again.The captain realized that the men tried to deceive him so he made them work very hard for the rest of the voyage.1.The first sailor pretended to be ill because he wanted to.A.test the captain’s knowledge of medicineB.be free from workC.have the best food on the shipD.play a joke on his friends2.When the captain knew a sailor was ill,he.A.didn’t care muchB.sent for a doctorC.looked after him and told him to have a restD.gave him some medicine3.The patients felt better quickly because.A.they had been given proper medicineB.they learned that the captain had found out the truthC.they were laughed at by their friendsD.the medicine the mate gave was horrible4.When the captain knew he had been deceived,he.A.told them not to do so againB.lost his temperC.made them work harderD.fired them5.Which of the following best summarizes the passage?A.A sudden Cure.B.Two Patients.C.Captain and Sailors.D.A Difficult Voyage.正确答案：BCDCA2.Passage2Questions6to10are based on the following passage:When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago,it was so difficult to separate form the ores in which it was found that its price was higher than that of gold.The price remained high until a new process was discovered for refining the metal with the aid of electricity approximately three quarters of a century later.The new method was so much cheaper that aluminum because practical for many purposes,one of which was making pots and pans.Aluminum is lightweight,rustproof and easily shaped into different forms.By mixing it with other metals,scientists have been able to produce a variety of alloys,some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as much.Today,the uses of aluminum are innumerable.Perhaps its most important use is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engine of automobiles,in the hulls of boats.It is also used in many parts of airplanes.In fact,the huge“airbus”planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not exist.By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the amount of fuel needed to move them,Aluminum is also being used extensively in the building industry in some countries.Since aluminum is such a versatile(多用的)metal,it is fortunate that bauxite(铝土矿),which is one of its chief sources,is also one of the earth’s most plentiful substances.As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible,we can expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.6.The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new refining process with the aid of.A.windB.solar energyC.hydraulic powerD.electricity7.Aluminum is.A.lightweight,rustproof but not easily shaped into different formsB.heavyweight,rustproof and easily shaped into different formsC.lightweight,rustproof and easily shaped into different formsD.lightweight and easily shaped into different forms but it is easy to become rusty8.Which of the following is NOT true?A.Aluminum is widely used in transportation.B.Aluminum is also used in many parts of airplanes.C.Aluminum is being used extensively in the building industry.D.Aluminum is not used in its pure form.9.Aluminum is found on earth mostly in the form of.A.pure metalB.bauxiteC.goldD.liquid10.What is the passage talking about?A.The features of aluminum and its functions.B.The process of aluminum.C.The discovery of aluminum.D.The promising future of aluminum.正确答案：DCDBA3.Passage3Questions11to15are based on the following passage:The idea of a special day to honor mothers was first put forward in America in1907.two years later a woman,Mrs.John Bruce Dodd,in the state of Washington proposed a similar day to honor the head of the family—the father.Her mother died when she was very young,and her father brought her up.She loved her father very much.In response to Mrs.Dodd’s idea that same year—1909,the state governor of Washington proclaimed(宣布)the third Sunday in June Father’s Day.The idea was officially approved by President Woodrow Wilson in1916.in1924,President Calvin Coolidge recommended national observance of the occasion“to establish more intimate(亲密)relations between fathers and their children,and to impress upon fathers the full measure of their obligations.”The red or white rose is recognized as the official Father’s Day flower.Father’s Day took longer to establish on a national scale than Mother’s Day,but as the idea grained popularity,tradesmen and manufacturers began to see the commercial possibilities.They encouraged sons and daughters to honor their fathers with small thank-you presents,such as a tie or pair of socks,as well as by sending greeting cards.During the Second World War,American servicemen stationed in Britain began to request Father’s Day greeting cards to send home.This generated a response with British card publishers. Though at first the British public was slow to accept this rather artificial day,it’s now well celebrated in Britain on the third Sunday in June in much the same way as in America. Father’s Day seems to be much less important as occasion than the Mother’s Day.Not many of the children offer their fathers some presents.But the American fathers still think they are much better fated than the fathers of many other countries,who have not even a day for their sake in name only.11.When did Father’s Day officially begin to have national popularity?A.1907B.1909C.1916D.192412.Who first started the idea of holding the Father’s Day?A.Mrs.John Bruce DoddB.Mrs.John Bruce’s MotherC.The government of Washington.D.Some businessmen.13.What flower will be popular on Father’s Day?A.LilyB.Water LilyC.Red rose or white roseD.Sunflower.14.Which statement is true,a according to this passage?A.It took even longer for Mother’s Day to gain national popularity.B.The businessmen helped to make Father’s Day popular.C.Father’s Day is only celebrated in America.D.Father’s Day is only a trick of the businessmen to make money.15.What was the first reaction of the British publishing towards Father’s Day?A.They thought highly of it and accepted it at once.B.They just accepted it at once without any hesitation.C.They just thought it a joke.D.They thought it was too artificial and took a long time to accept.正确答案：DACBD4.Passage4Questions16to20are based on the following passage:Culture shock is an occupational disease(职业病)for people who have been suddenly transplanted abroad.Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all familiar signs and symbols of social intercourse.Those signs are as following:when to shake hands and what to say when meet people,when and how to give tips,how to make purchases,when to accept and refuse invitations,when to take statements seriously and when not.These signs,which may be words, gestures,facial expressions,or customs,are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept.All of us depend on hundreds of these signs for our peace of mind and day-to-day efficiency,but we do not carry most at the level of conscious awareness.Now when an individual enters a strange culture,all or most of these familiar signs are removed.

大学英语六级考试模拟测试卷（一）答案与解析Part I WritingSalary or InterestUpon graduation, virtually all college students will confront the problem of choosing their careers. It is truly a tough choice. Students’ opinions differ greatly on this issue. Some hold that priority should be given to their interest in the job, but others take the attitude that salary is the most critical factor influencing their career choices.As for myself, I prefer the latter view. A well-paid job exerts a tremendous fascination on a great number of people, with no exception to me. Although it might be impossible to measure the value of one’s job in terms of money, salary counts most when I choose my future career. In my view, our career choices largely depend on how and where we have been brought up. I come from a poor urban family and my parents are both laid-off workers. In order to finance my tuition, they have been working hard over the past four years. As the only son in my family, I have to shoulder the burden of supporting my family.In short, salary is the first consideration in my choice of career.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. Y 根据题干中的信息词age-old desire定位到原文第一段，可知美国围家地理新闻整理了近期历史上让人印象深刻的恶作剧，这些谎言欺骗的是那些易受骗的、轻易信任他人的人，用以满足有些人想要捉弄他人的想法，故该句表述正确。

2. NG 根据题干中的信息词Internet hoaxes定位到第一个小标题，可知互联网促进了恶作剧的增多，该部分接着介绍了通过电子邮件骗人的把戏，但并没有表明电子邮件恶作剧是惟一的网络恶作剧形式。

3. N 根据题干中的信息词Dihydrogen monoxide定位到第二个小标题，由该标题下的第二段可知，所谓的一氧化二氢其实就是H¬2O，也就是水。

而关于水被用做工业溶剂的说法是吓唬人的，故该句表述错误。

4. N 根据题干中的信息词Dihydrogen monoxide定位到第二个小标题，再由corrosion and rusting定位到该标题下的倒数第二段，可知爱开玩笑的人还将加速腐蚀和生锈、严重烧伤、吸入致死等其他危险和一氧化二氢联系起来，结合前文提到的一氧化二氢就是水可知，这些不过是哄弄人的说法，故该句表述错误。

5. several newsgroup readers。

根据题干中的信息词Alabama changed the value of Pi 定位到第三个小标题，再由forwarded the article定位到该标题下第四段，可知有些新闻读者将文章发给朋友，还将其登在其他新闻版块中。

再结合上下文可知，正是这些新闻读者的做法导致了那条虚假新闻的大肆传播。

6. newspapers，radio，and television。

根据题干中的信息词traditional media outlets 定位到第四个小标题，可知在互联网出现之前，甚至是现在，报纸、广播和电视这类传统媒体有时也会捉弄公众，由此可得答案。

7. much about the rest of Europe。

根据题干中的信息词Swiss spaghetti harvest定位到第五个小标题，该部分最后一段提到，Boese表示，英国人不太了解欧洲其他国家。

再结合上文可知，这正是许多英国人相信瑞士的意大利面条大丰收的原因。

8. the national debt。

根据题干中的信息词Taco Bell Corporation和Liberty Bell定位到第六个小标题，再由Irvine定位到该标题下的第一段，可知一项公告报道Taco Bell公司买下了自由钟，并要将其挪到加利福尼亚的欧文市，该公司表示移动该钟是为了帮助缓解国家债务，由此可得答案。

9. extraterrestrial communications。

根据题干中的信息词crop circles定位到倒数第二个小标题，再由UFOs定位到该标题下的倒数第二段，可知有些人认为麦田圈是现代艺术最伟大的作品，也有人确信那是外太空通信的迹象或不明飞行物的着陆地。

10. stars。

根据题干中的信息词Apollo program和pictures transmitted from the moon定位到最后一个小标题下的第二段，可知有人认为阿波罗计划是在摄影棚里拍摄出来的，他们指出，从月球传回的画面上并没有星星，这应该就是他们怀疑登月真实性的部分原因。
