We were used to seeing him as a(n) 39 father.For three days he wouldn't talk. He would just sit 40 outside our house in the dark. On the fourth night, I sat beside him and 41 him to tell me what he feels about 42.It has been years since I have laid my hand on my father's shoulder as we have drifted apart(疏远) farther and farther while I was 43 up. That night though, I sensed my father trying to 44 his pain and I wanted him to be able to let it out. We all have cried over what happened except him.The 45 touch and my words, "Dad, it's not your 46 ", broke my father's dam(水闸). In the darkness, he began to cry. I 47 his shoulders shaking as he whispered, " 48 did I go wrong? All I ever wanted was for my children to grow up 49. Why couldn't your sister wait?"I understand then why he 50 to be in the dark. 51 being there, he hoped to spare his 52 of a father's pain.

Reading comprehension(30 points)AToday, people are more conscious about their health and want to get a well-toned body shape. This is because when we are in good shape, it makes us feel fit and healthy. We feel good about ourselves and feel much more confident than before. When you want to tone up your body, just workouts will not do. You have to take care of your overall health by eating proper food, doing the right kind of exercises and keeping yourselfThe first thing that needs to be done is to reduce the intake of calories. The calorie content of each meal should not be higher than 400 calories. Ideally, one is well advised to have six meals in a day. There should be a gap of three hours between each meal. Fresh vegetables, fruits, egg white, fish, chicken, breast are some of the food that can provide you with the right nutrients, at the same time will help you to get in shape.Many people make the mistake of avoiding strength training when they are trying for weight loss. They think that strength training will increase their body weight. However, this is not true. Be careful not to over exercise in order to lose weight fast. Too much of exercise can cause damage to you.Drinking 8-10 glasses of water can help in reducing fat. If you drink ice cold water, then it will burn out some extra calories from your body. This is because when you are drinking cold water, your body needs to raise the temperature of the water up to your body temperature. In this process, almost one calorie of fat gets burned from the body. Drinking a glass of water before a meal will be helpful in this regard.You can get a healthy body only if your mind is free from stress. Stress can also lead to other health problems like high blood pressure, upset stomach, headaches, etc. For all these reasons, special efforts need to be taken to relax your mind.56. How often is one advised to have a meal in a day?A. Every three hours.B. Every four hours.C. Every five hours.D. Every six hours.57. Why do many people avoid strength training?A. Because they think it helps reduce stress.B. Because they think it can help reduce fat.C. Because they think it makes them put on weight.D. Because they think it may cause damage.58. Drinking cold water burns out more calories because _______.A. it needs warming up to fit your body temperatureB. it has fewer calories than hot waterC. it does not boil before you drinkD. you can drink it quickly than hot water59. What does the passage try to tell us?A. How to reduce intake of fat.B. How to get free from stress.C. How to lose body weight.D. How to get in a right shape.BMom was a teacher most of her life. When she wasn’t in the classroom, she was educating her children or grandchildren: correcting our grammar; starting us on collections of butterflies, flowers or rocks; or inspiring a discussion on her most recent “Book of the Month Club” topic. Mom made learning fun.It was sad for my three brothers and me to see her illness in her later years. At eighty-five, she suffered a stroke(中风) and she went steadily(不断地) downhill after that.Two days before she died, my brothers and I met at her nursing home and took her for a short ride in a wheelchair. While we waited for the staff to lift her limp body back into bed, Mom fell asleep. Not wanting to wake her, we moved to the far end of the room and spoke softly.After several minutes our conversation was interrupted by a muffled sound coming from across the room. We stopped talking and looked at Mom. Her eyes were closed, but she was clearly trying to communicate with us. We went to her side.“Whirr,” she said weakly.“Where?” I asked. “Mom, is there something you want?” “Whirr,” she repeated a bit stronger. My brothers and I looked at each other and shook our heads sadly.Mom opened her eyes, sighed, and with all the energy she could gather said, “Not was, say were!”It suddenly occurred to us that Mom was correcting brother Jim’s last sentence. “If it was up to me…”Jim leaned down and kissed her cheek. “Thanks, Mom,” he whispered. We smiled at each other and once again shook our heads…this time in awe (敬畏) of a remarkable teacher.60. When Mom said, “Whirr”, what did she really want to do?A. She wanted to tell her sons her will.B. She wanted to have something to eat before she died.C. She wanted to correct the mistakes Jim made while talking.D. She wanted to teach her sons more because she was dying.61. Which of the following statements is NOT right?A. Mom was a good teacher and never wanted to stop her teaching.B. Mom was always making her teaching fun.C. Mom did n’t forget her teaching until she died.D. Mom was no longer a teacher when she was at home.62. What does the writer think of his mother?A. He loved her but was tired of his mother’s teaching at home.B. His mother should forget her teaching and enjoyed the rest of her life.C. His mother was great because she devoted herself to teaching.D. His mother was an excellent teacher before she was retired.63. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A. Once a teacher, always a teacherB. Mo m’s willC. A teacher’s lifeD.A teacher’s devotionCParents say that honesty is the best policy, but they regularly lie to their children as a way of influencing their behavior and emotions, finds new research from the University of Toronto and the University of California.Surprisingly little has been published on the subject of parental lying, so Gail Heyman, professor of psychology at the University of California, Diem Luu, a former student of the University of California, and Kang Lee, professor at the University Toronto, set out to explore the under researched phenomenon(现象). They asked USparticipants in two related studies about parents lying to their children —either for the purpose of promoting （提升）appropriate behavior(行为) or to make them happy.In one of the studies, many parents reported they told their young children that bad things would happen if they didn't go to bed or eat what they were supposed to. Other parents reported inventing magical creatures. One explained, “We told our daughter that if she wrapped up(包起来) all her pacifiers (橡皮奶嘴) like gifts, the fair would come and give them to the children who needed them.”In the other study, the researchers surveyed(调查) college students' recollections about their parents' lying and obtained(get) similar results: parents often lie to their children even as they tell them that lying is unacceptable.The researchers refer to this practice as “parenting by lying”. “We are surprised by how often parenting by lying takes place,” said LEE. Though Heyman thinks that there are occasions(times) when it is appropriate to be less than truthful with a child, she urges parents to think through the issues and consider alternatives(other ways) before using lies.“Children sometimes behave in ways that are disruptive(分裂的) or are likely to harm their long term interests,”said Heyman. “It is common for them to try out a range of strategies(策略), including lying, to stop them. However, parents should be concerned about the possible long term negative consequences(result) to children's beliefs about honesty.”64. The subject of parental lying ________.A. was not allowed to be researched in the pastB. attracts little attention because it is commonC. hasn't got many published results about itD. is becoming more and more popular65. The study of Gai Heyman, Diem Luu and Kang Lee was focused on parents' lies that ________.A. aim to cover their mistakes B．lead children to hate themC．aim to give children a positive influence D．make children get used to lying66. What does Heyman think of parental lying?A. It is a great parenting strategy.B. Parents should think twice before using it.C. It usually does more good than harm.D. Parents should do something to make up for it after using it.67. In which part of a newspaper would you most probably find the passage?A. Business.B. Education.C. Technology.D. Fashion.DHere’s a movie—a sharp, sugar-rush of fun that’s guaranteed to entertain the entire family.With some terrific computer-generated effects, a great cast and a fun-packed storyline, Robots is the best animated film (动画片) since The Incredibles. Yep, it really is that good.Set in a world populated by robots, Ewan McGregor plays Rodney Copperbottom, a young robot who leaves his small-town home to pursue his dream of becoming an inventor. But after arriving in Robot City, his hopes of getting a job at Bigweld Industries are destroyed when he learns the firm has been taken over by the evil Ratchet (Greg Kinnear).Egged on by his controlling mum, Madame Gasket (Jim Broadbent), Ratchet plans to reduce half of Robot City’s citizens to scrap metal by refusing to sell the spare parts they need to survive.Instead, he wants to make a fortune selling expensive upgrades that few can afford. As he says, “Why be you when you can be new?”Aided by a few misfit robots known as the Rustles—including Robin Williams as the cowardly' (胆小的）Fender (“I’m made of a metal called Afraidium”)—Rodney must track down the firm’s founder, Bigwel d (Mel Brooks), and convince him to save the city from Ratchet’s plans.The first thing that’ll strike you about the movie is the thought that's gone into creating Robot City. It’s a wondrous world full of mechanical marvels including wind-up cars and walking streetlamps.Also terrific are the special effects. This might be an animated movie but attimes you’ll catch yourself thinking it’s really a live-action film.Of course, there have been plenty of animated movies that looked the part but were let down by a weak storyline (see Shark Tale, for example).But Robots grips (扣人心弦) right from the start thanks to a heart-warming and thoroughly engaging plot that never bores.My only complaints are with Williams who, as usual，has a one-in-10 success rate with his jokes. Also a letdown is a romantic subplot between Rodney and a shapely robot called Cappy (Halle Berry) that doesn’t go anywhere.Complains aside, this is a mechanical marvel that’ll have you bolted firmly to your seat.BEST QUOTE(引述): Fender: “Even though you had a discouraging day, just remember there’s another one coming tomorrow.”BEST BIT: Check out those amazing images.WORST BIT: Robin Williams, character does an unfunny Britney Spears dance routine.IF YOU LIKED…Ice Age, The Incredibles, Toy Story... YOU’LL LIKE THIS.68. This piece of writing is a _______.A. commercial advertisementB. film reviewC. movie posterD. literary essay69. The cast of Robots is made up of all the following actors or actresses EXCEPT _______.A. Ewan McGregorB. Robin WilliamsC. Britney SpearsD. Halle Berry70. What is Shark Tale an example of?A. A great castB. A poor plotC. Special effectsD. Clumsy animation第二部分：主观题部分(满分35分)V. Task-reading(10 points)Educating girls quite possibly harvests a higher rate of return than any other investment available in the developing world. Women's education may be an unusual economical field, but increasing women's contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue. And economics, with its focus on encouragement, provides an explanation for why so many girls are rid of an education.Parents in low-income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family: girls grow up only to marry into somebody else's family and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school -- the prophecy (观念) becomes self-fulfilling, trapping women in a vicious (恶性的) circle of neglect.An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance. The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, as well as of boys, will be educated and healthy. The vicious circle is thus transformed into a virtuous circle.Few will argue that educating women has great social benefits. But it has enormous economic advantages as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year of schooling. Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments, but they are just the beginning. Educating women also has a significant effect on health practices, including family planning.Topic: The significance of female (1) in developing countriesVI. Word spelling (10 points)1.

The passage is meant to____________.A. compare some national parks in the .B. tell about some activities at national parks.C. introduce some great American national parks.D. explain why American national parks are amazing.BSpaghetti with meatballs(意大利肉丸面) is the food I like best. It tastes good. And reading is the ho bby I like best. , however, can be dangerous. When you are lo st in a book, you stop paying attention to what’s going on arou nd you. It’s a wonderful feeling, but it sometimes can be hazar dous. []When I was young, one day, I was eating spaghetti with meat balls, and I was reading an interesting book. At the time, my f amily had a pet bird named Luke. He was free to fly around in side the house. And Luke enjoyed “talking” to people.As I was reading and eating, Luke was “talking” to me, but I w as lost in my book. So Luke decided to get closer. He suddenl y landed on top of my spaghetti! I shooed him off my food. This wouldn’t have been so bad except for one thing: When Luke had landed on my plate, he had grabbed(抓) my spaghetti with his feet. So when Luke took off again, the spaghetti went flying everywhere. It landed on my shirt. It hit me in the face. Red sauce splattered(溅) up the wall and onto the ceiling. See how dangerous reading can be. If you really like to read while you eat, you must keep one eye on your food. But you’d better eat up your food and then read your book. Why? If you find a novel at the library with red spots on two pages, you’ll k now that I’ve read that book.4. What does the underlined word “hazardous” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. excitingB. strangeC. dangerousD. special5. What did Luke do when the author was reading and eating ?A. It made a mess in the room.B. It learned to talk to the author.C. It took away the author’s book.D. It ate all the spaghetti with meatballs.6. What does the author advise readers to do?A. Keep pets in the house all the time.B. Take good care of pets when you eat.C. Enjoy your book after finishing your eating.D. Spend more time reading books in the library.7. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this text?A. To introduce a delicious food.B. To tell an interesting experience.C. To suggest ways to choose books.D. To show reading is a wonderful thing.CBeing an astronaut(宇航员) sounds cool, doesn’t it? In space, they can float(漂浮) in zero gravity. However, there are also plenty of things th at astronauts can’t do because of their weightless environmen t, and that’s very sad. What’s worse, they can’t even let their s adness show— because it’s impossible to cry in zero gravity. Of course, astronauts can still produce tears. But without grav ity, tears don’t flow downward out of the eyes. This means tha t when you cry in space, your tears have nowhere to go— the y just stick to your eyes which can cause physical pain. Back on Earth, tears usually bring comfort to the eyes. But that’s no t the case in space. The space environment dries out astrona uts’ eyes, and when tears suddenly wet the eyes, it can cause pain rather than comfort.Since gravity doesn’t work in space, astronauts need some extra help to get rid of the tears. They can also rub(擦) his eyes t o wipe the tears away. Another choice is to just wait—when the tears get big enough they simply break free of the e ye and float around.There are lots of small things that we are so used to on Earth. We usually take them for granted, until they become a proble m in a totally different environment, like space. There, astrona uts can’t talk to each other directly. They also can’t eat or drin k in normal ways. They can’t even burp(打嗝), because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach. If they do burp, they just end up throwing up(呕吐) everything in their stomach.Thus, perhaps it’s only space explorers who can honestly say,“Gravity,you’re the best.”8. What bad effect do tears have on astronauts?A. They cause physical pain.B. They bring comfort to them.C. They help them get better sight.D. They float around and cause trouble.9. What can the astronaut do to get rid of the tears?A. Close their eyes.B. Wait till tears flow down.C. Let the tears dry up.D. Wait till the tears get big enough.10. What’s the second-to-last paragraph mainly about?A. Suggestions on how astronauts can stay comfortable in s pace.B. Other basic things that are difficult to do in space.C. The environment in space is totally different.D. Why burping is impossible in space.11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. What can you do in space?B. Better life with gravity.C. In the sky, you can’t cry.D. No gravity, no tears.DA group of homeless children in the Indian capital of publis h a newspaper telling about their own lives. It is called Balakn ama, which means “children’s voice”. It is written and edited (编辑) by children up to 19 years old. About 10, 000 people read it.A homeless girl named Shanno helps edit the paper.

Researchers have shown that when a person falls in love,a dozen different part of brain work together to release chemicals that trigger feelings of euphoria,bonding and excitement.It has also been shown that the unc onditional love between a mother and a child is associated with activity in different regions of the brain from those associated with pair-bonding love.Passionate love is rooted in the reward circuitry of the brain—the same area that is active when humans feel a rush from cocaine.In fact,the desire,motivations and withdrawals involved in love have a great deal in common with addiction. Its most intense forms tend to be associated with the early stages of a relationship,which then give way to a calmer attachment form of love one feels with a long term partner.What all this means is that one special person can become chemically rewarding to the brain of another.Love at first sight,then,is only possible if the mechanism for generating long-term attachment can be triggered quickly.There are signs that it can be.One line of evidence is that people are able to decide within a second how attractive they find another person. This decision appears to be related to facial attractiveness,although men may favor women with waist-to-hip ratio of0.7,no matter what their overall weight is.(This ratio may indicate a woman’s reproductive health.)Another piece of evidence comes from work by a psychologist at Ben-Gurion University,who found in a survey that a small percentage(11%)of people in long-term relationships said that they began with love at first sight.In other words,in some couples the initial favorable impressions of attractiveness triggered love which sustained a lengthy bond.It is also clear that some couples need to form their bonds over a longer period,and popular culture tells many tales of friends who become lovers.One might also assume that if a person is looking for a partner with traits that cannot be quantified instantly,such as compassion,intellect or a good sense of humor,then it would be hard to form a relationship on the basis of love at first sight. Those more concerned with visual appearances,though,might find this easier.So it appears that love at first sight exists,but is not a very common basis for long-term relationships.58.When a person falls in love,_____________.A.he feels as if he were addicted to cocaine.B.he will be committed to the beloved as long as necessary.C.he will experience complex feelings brought on by different regions of his brain.D.he will experience a calmer attachment form of love before he feels the extreme love.59.We can infer from the passage that________.A.pair-bonding love comes from a long stable friendship.B.the mechanism for creating long-term attachment ensures love at first sightC.it is impossible for those ordinary-looking people to fall in love at first sight.D.men may be attracted by a girl whose figure suggests her admirable reproductive capacity.60.The underlined word“traits”in the last paragraph probably means______.A.characteristicsB.something typical in your temperC.particular quantities in your personalityD.attitudes that show your moral standards61.Which of the following may be the best title of the passage?A.The stages of passionate loveB.The science of love at first sightC.The biological construct of pair-bondingD.The mechanism for generating long-term loveCElectronic sensors built into paper could be used in a range of ways from information storage to touch screens and more.Electronic sensors built into cartons（纸盒）may make it easier to tell when it’s time to throw out rotten milk or orange juice.And that’s just the start.At least that’s the goal for researchers working on putting electronics into paper.They’re trying to figure out how to combine the flexibility,low-cost and recyclability of paper with the information-carrying ability of electronics.Daniel Torbjork,a physics graduate student in Finland,has been working on the problem.He’s published a review of the field in the journal Advanced Materials.Much research has been focused in this area.While most electronic applications require patterned conducting structures, conductive paper could be used in applications such as energy storage devices,sensors,electric heaters and others, according to Torbjork.“You could even have some interactive functions in magazines,”Torbjork said,“You could put a simple game in a package.If you want a touch screen,press a button and then something happen.Sensors in paper could tell us when something has gone bad.”Additional applications,such as information storage and security paper,have been suggested for magnetic papers containing magnetite.In Massachusetts,researchers have figured out how to post a video of such a device put into a paper airplane.German researchers have also put electronic chips in paper bank notes to defend counter-feiters（造伪币者）.Paper is a good material but printing electronics also requires low-cost manufacturing.As many US and European paper makers lose market share to cheaper paper from China,these big paper companies are looking for added value products.That’s where electronic paper devices could make a difference.“The major obstacles are paper’s large surface roughness and chemical impurities.”Torbjork says.But others in the field think that electronic sensors in paper are still far from the consumer marketplace.“I don’t think it’s going to happen.”said Roy Horgan.“You need a conductive surface.It could be10years out.What we are looking for are solutions that you can commercialize to-day.”Solar Print is partnering with Italian automaker Fiat to develop a unique auto-glass with tiny photostatic cells（光电）that can capture electricity from the sun.In the meantime,using paper to conduct electricity is still a“blue-sky”project.“I would love to see someone prove me wrong,because that means that it’s actually happening.”Horgan said.“If someone comes up with conductive paper,then that’s a very interesting technology.”62.Putting electronics into paper will________.A.cut the cost and impurity of paperB.depend on flexible conductive structureC.help consume rotten milk or orange juicebine the advantages of paper and electronics63.Paragraphs4to7mainly talk about the________of the conductive paper.A.practical useB.theoriesC.structuresD.design process64.Some paper makers welcome the new technology probably because it will________.A.put an end to fake moneyB.make the paper smootherC.add more value to paperD.improve the printing technology65.From the passage,we know that Roy Horgan________.A.has a burning desire to make a great profitB.showed much interest in Solar Print industryC.is not confident about the conductive paperD.started a“blue-sky”project to study paperDMotion pictures are so much a part of our lives that it’s hard to imagine a world without them.We enjoy them in theatres,at home,in offices,in cars and buses,and on airplanes.①For about100years,people have been trying to understand why this medium has so attracted us.Films communicate information and ideas,and they show us places and ways of life we might not otherwise know.Important as the benefits are,though,something more is at stake.Films offer us ways of seeing and feeling that we find deeply satisfying. They take us through experiences.The experiences are often driven by stories,with characters we come to care about,but a film might also develop an idea or explore visual qualities or sound textures.A film takes us on a journey,offering a patterned experience that engages our minds and emotions.②Films are designed to have effects on te in the19th century,moving pictures emerged as a public amusement.They succeeded because they spoke to the imaginative needs of a broad-based audience.All the traditions that emerged－telling fictional stories,recording actual events,animating objects or pictures,experimenting with pure form－aimed to give viewers experiences they couldn’t get from other media.The men and women who made films discovered that they could control aspects of cinema to give their audience richer,more engaging experiences.Learning from one another,expanding and refining the options available,filmmakers developed skills that became the basis of film as an art form.③The popular origins of cinema suggest that some common ways of talking won’t help us much in understanding film.Take the distinction between art and entertainment.Some people would say that blockbusters(大片)playing at the multiplex are merely“entertainment”,whereas films for a narrower public－perhaps independent films for festival fare,or specialized experimental works－are true ually the art/entertainment split carries a not-so-hi dden value judgment: art is high-brow,whereas entertainment is superficial.Yet things aren’t that simple.As we just indicated,many of the artistic resources of cinema were discovered by filmmakers working for the general public.During the1910s and1920s,for instance,many films that aimed only to be entertaining opened up new possibilities for film editing.As for the matter ofvalue,it’s clear that popular traditions can promote art of high quality.Cinema is an art because it offers filmmakers ways to design experiences for viewers,and those experiences can be valuable.④Sometimes,too,people treat film art as opposed to film as a business.This split is related to the issue of entertainment,since entertainment generally is sold to a mass audience.Again,however,in most modern societies,no art floats free of economic ties.Novels good,bad,or indifferent are published because publishers expect to sell them.Painters hope that collectors and museums will acquire their work.True,some artworks are funded through taxes or private donations,but that process,too,involves the artist in a financial transaction(交易).Films are no different.Others are funded by patronage or public moneys.Even if you decide to make your own digital movie,you face the problem of paying for it－and you may hope to earn a little extra for all your time and effort.The crucial point is that considerations of money don’t necessarily make the artist any less creative or the project any less w orthwhile.Money can corrupt any line of business(consider politics),but it doesn’t have to.In Renaissance Italy, painters were commissioned by the Catholic church to illustrate events from the Bible.Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci worked for hire,but it would be hard to argue that it hurt their artistry.Here we won’t assume that film art prevents entertainment.We won’t take the opposite position either－claiming that only Hollywood mass-market movies are worth attention.Similarly,we don’t think that film art rises above commercial demand,but we also won’t assume that money rules everything.Any art form offers a vast range of creative possibilities. Our basic assumption is that as an art,film offers experiences that viewers find worthwhile.66.Where should the sentence“It doesn’t happen by accident.”be put in the passage?A.①B.②C.③D.④67.Which of the following statements about film is TRUE?A.Hollywood films are usually far more appealing.B.Film offers a wide variety of creative possibilities.C.Films are made in the hope that consumers will pay to see them.D.When watching films,viewers feel controlled by film designers.68.The writer uses the examples of Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci to______.A.indicate that money is unlikely to corrupt artistryB.show that money doesn’t necessarily destroy artistryC.prove that money cannot buy everything in the field of artD.suggest that money is an important concern even for famous artists69.According to the writer,film should______A.avoid concentrating on popular traditionsB.focus on artistry rather than entertainmentC.provide the audience with something worthwhileD.earn enough to pay for the developers’time and effort70.Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage?A.Film:art or businessB.Art or entertainmentC.Film offers us experiencesD.Money doesn’t rule everything第四部分任务型阅读（10分）Commercial advertisement was once thought of as a technique of the marketers to inform the potential buyers aboutthe availability of certain products.It was seen more as a medium to inform the buyers rather than persuade them to buy. The present day marketers see advertisement as a medium to damage the image of their competitors and their products.This indeed,is an undesirable and an immoral practice.Instead of speaking about their own products,these marketers speak about the drawbacks(often without any basics)of the competing products.People watching TV advertisements would notice that there has always been an advertisement war between the marketers of different consumer goods.A few such cases are given below.1.Parachute Coconut Oil vs.V.V.D.GoldSometime back,the producer of V.V.D Gold Coconut Oil claimed in their TV advertisement that only their products were superior and the one sold in blue colour bottles(the reference was to Parachute coconut oil)was suitable only for un-natural hair.2.Tata Salt vs.Captain CookTata salt was first iodised(碘处理)salt marketed by an Indian Company.It has been enjoying a good and steady market.Captain Cook,another producer of iodised salt,who entered the market later,had to adopt some strategy to get control of the market.The TV advertisement of Captain Cook stressed on‘Free flow’of their salt when transferred to a container.The producer of Tata Salt retaliated(报复)by saying that the claim of Captain Cook was a trick and those who were quality conscious should deal with it with caution.3.Pepsi vs.Coca ColaCoca Cola was selected as the official soft drink for the Wills World Cricket1996.When the cricket series was on,the marketers of Pepsi constantly advertised on TV.Their advertisement gave the idea that the cricketers preferred only Pepsi and as a matter of fact there was nothing official about it.4.Horlicks planSometime back,the TV advertisement of Complan,a health drink directly attacked Horlicks,which has been in the market for several decades.The claim of Complan was that their brand(which according to them was Brand C)has a higher percentage of ingredients compared to Brand H(reference was nothing but to Horlicks).The above examples clearly show how the technique of advertisement is misused by some marketers to ruin the image of their competitors.This,certainly,is not a healthy trend.Any marketer should only speak about his products and not about his competitors’products.The awareness of consumers has certainly increased over the years and they are no longer easily taken in.There are many consumer products like salt,oil,shaving blades etc.But one thing for sure is that offering the same product in a different container will not make the product different.Mass media like Radio,Television and newspaper should not allow advertisements that tell lies.Legal regulations,in this regard,should also be made stricter.Comparison of the past and the presentIn the past A technique mainly used for offering(71)At present A trick used as a means of unfai r(72)Unhealthy trend of the(73)of advertisement(74)Products Wrong(75)V.V.D.Gold No product of the kind could(76)it.Captain CookCaptain Cook stressed on their“free flow”when their product was put into acontainer.Tata Salt Tata salt warned consumers to be(77).PepsiToo much advertisement on TV seemed to say that Pepsi was the cricketers’(78).ComplanComplan claimed that their product was much(79)in ingredients.Solutions ●Only products of their own are allowed to be(80)in the advertisement.●Stricter laws should be made to protect every producer’s and consumer’s benefits.第五部分书面表达（25分）The Ministry of Education recently released a statement encouraging middle schools to provide Wi-Fi coverage for their students.Do you think middle school campuses should be covered with Wi-Fi?Sheng Junjie,17:In my opinion,Wi-Fi should cover campuses.The Internet contains an enormous amount of information.If Wi-Fi could be used on campus,it would be more convenient for students to surf the Internet connection had a positive influence on students’studying,the school could work out technical tools to guide them.Han Xu,17:Personally,I think that Wi-Fi coverage is not a good thing.Everyone would agree that not all information on the Internet is reliable.Students would be likely to come across awful things like false information,even violence and fraud,on the school Wi-Fi network.It would have a bad influence on the growth of students,and may even lead to more serious problems.【写作内容】1.用约30个单词概述上述信息的主要内容；2.结合上述信息，就“中学校园是否要覆盖无线网络”这个话题发表你的看法，并说明理由。
