was the old mid­winter festival in pre­Christian times,around the time of the longest night and the shortest day.Christmas in the 21st century has many traditions:Christmas trees,cards and presents.Presents and shoppingShops can make about 60 per cent of their year's income in the three months before Christmas.So most shops get ready for it in October.The shopping centres are beautifully decorated and stay open late at night.The first time this happened was in 1867 when Macy's,a famous shop in New York,stayed open until midnight on Christmas Eve(24th December).TreesBy mid­December,almost every house,shop and street has a Christmas tree.This tradition was started by the Germans as early as 700 AD.In the northern countries of the world,winter is cold and dark and most trees lose their leaves.The beautiful green trees decorated with lights and coloured glass balls give people hope that spring will come again.CardsThe tradition of sending cards to friends was started in 1840 in the UK and now millions of Christmas cards and emails are sent all round the world.Cards are a good way of keeping in touch with family and friends who live far away.Father ChristmasFather Christmas is known across the world with his white hair,red coat and big bag of toys.Young children are told that he lives in the north of Finland and makes toys for them.By tradition,he brings the toys to children at midnight,on the night before Christmas.FoodOn Christmas day a traditional meal is eaten,usually turkey(like a big chicken)and a rich,spicy cake.Some people hate Christmas.Others feel it is a magical and exciting time.They love seeing family and friends;they also love the traditions.Love it or hate it,Christmas is a time to look back over the old year—and forward to the new one.41.Christmas has been celebrated________.A.for over 3000 yearsB.since the start of the 21st centuryC.for about 1600 yearsD.for about 2400 years42.Christmas is important for

According to a report, 39 million Americans will be 65 or older by the year 2010,51million by 2020,and 65 million by 2030.The “graying”of the United States is mainly due to the fact that people in the U. S. are living longer. As a matter of fact,the number of U. S. citizens 85 years old and older is growing six times as fast as the rest of the population. It is also largely due to the old­growing of the“baby boomers”,the generation born after World War Ⅱ. In 1957,over 4.3 million babies were born. More than 75 million Americans were born between 1946 and 1964,the largest generation in U. S. history. In less than twenty years, millions of them will become elderly people.The“graying”of the U. S. will greatly affect the nation's family and workforce; one likely development will be a gradual change in the family unit; it will move away from the nuclear family and towards a multi­generational family. The other likely development will be a change in the proportion (比例) of the nation's workforce. In 1989 there were 3.5 workers for every person 65 and older; by the year 2030,there will only be 2 workers for every person 65 and older.Title 51.________Section B (10 marks)Time management is a skill that can be learned. First, you need to understand how your time is spent. Keep a record for several days documenting how much time is spent in class, studying, visiting friends and family, working and eating. Take a look at the list to see ________.Once you know how your time is spent, start a daily or weekly planner (记事簿). Put down your classes,appointments, meetings, work schedule, assignment due dates and other activities. Check the planner every day so you will know what needs to be done that day. A daily “to­do” list may assist you in knowing what needs to be done immediately.Get a copy of your school calendar and put in the important dates and holidays, so you will know when to expect tests and other important events.In order to use your time wisely, put your assignments in a priority order with the most difficult one first.If you do your most difficult task at the beginning, it will be out of the way and the others will be easier.Be sure to schedule enough time to study and start studying in a distraction free environment.Schedule time to allow for tests, papers, and speeches. These larger assignments may need to be broken down into smaller bits and pieces.Be sure to go over your lecture notes within a twenty­four­hour time period to keep the material fresh in your mind. Try to review your notes and any reading just before your class period so the material will be fresh in your mind.Once you become aware of how you use your time, you will be able to manage it and do well in your studies.61.What is the best title for the passage? (not more than 5 words)______________________________________________________________62.Fill in the blank in the first paragraph with proper words or phrases. (not more than 5 words)______________________________________________________________63.Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?Keeping a record of what needs to be done on a daily basis will highlight what needs to be attended to now.______________________________________________________________64.What advice is given in the second paragraph?

certain kinds of work better than others did them.That led to the concept of specialization,which means that people would specialize,or focus,on doing one specific job.Let's take a man we'll call Mr.Fielder,for example.He did everything connected with farming.He planted seeds,tended the fields,and harvested and sold his crops.At the same time,he did many other jobs on the farm.However,he didn't make the bricks for his house,cut his trees into boards,make the plows(犁),or any of the other hundreds of things a farm needs.Instead,he got them from people who specialized in doing each of those things.Suppose there was another man we shall call ing what he knew about farming and working with iron,Mr.Plowright invented a plow that made farming easier.Mr.Plowright did not really like farming himself and wanted to specialize in making really good plows.Perhaps,he thought,other farmers will trade what they grow for one of my plows.How did Mr.Plowright let people know what he was doing? Why,he advertised,of course.First he opened a shop and then he put up a sign outside the shop to attract customers.That sign may have been no more than a plow carved into a piece of wood and a simple arrow pointing to the shop door.It was probably all the information people needed to find Mr.Plowright and his really good plows.Many historians believe that the first outdoor signs were used about five thousand years ago.Even before most people could read,they understood such signs.Shopkeepers would carve into stone,clay,or wood symbols for the products they had for sale.A medium,in advertising talk,is the way you communicate your message.You might say that the first medium used in advertising was signs with symbols.The second medium was audio,or sound,although that term is not used exactly in the way we use it today.Originally,just the human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrument,such as a bell,were used to get people's attention.A crier,in the historical sense,is not someone who weeps easily.It is someone,probably a man,with a voice loud enough to be heard over the other noises of a city.In ancient Egypt,shopkeepers might hire such a person to spread the news about their products.Often this earliest form of advertising involved a newly arrived ship loaded with goods.Perhaps the crier described the goods,explained where they came from,and praised their quality.His job was,in other words,not too different from a TV or radio commercial in today's world.1.What probably led to the start of advertising?A.The discovery of iron.B.The specialization of labor.C.The appearance of new jobs.D.The development of farming techniques.2.To advertise his plows,Mr.Plowright ________.A.praised his plows in publicB.placed a sign outside the shopC.hung an arrow pointing to the shopD.showed his products to the customers3.The writer makes up the two stories of Mr.Fielder and Mr.Plowright in order to ________.A.explain the origin of advertisingB.predict the future of advertisingC.expose problems in advertisingD.provide suggestions for advertising4.In ancient Egypt,a crier was probably someone who ________.A.owned a shipB.had the loudest voiceC.ran a shop selling goods to farmersD.functioned like today's TV or radio commercial5.The last two paragraphs are mainly about ________.A.the history of advertisingB.the benefits of advertisingC.the early forms of advertisingD.the basic design of advertising。

do something their parents tell them not to do,or they don't do something they are supposed to do,they apologize,too.Gro wn­ups can a pologize,too—to other grown­ups or even to kids.After all,even grown­ups make mistakes sometimes.By apologizing when they're wrong,grown­ups can set a good example and show kids how to do the right thing and apologize when they need to.Saying “I'm sorry” w hen you need to is the right thing to do.It does a lotof good.But by itself,it might not be enough to make everything all better again.Sometimes along with an apology,a person needs to fix the mistake or promise to do better.Sometimes doing a nice thing for the person after you apologize helps show that you really are sorry and want to be friendly again.Sometimes a heartfelt (由衷的)“I'm sorry” fixes everything right away.Other times,it might take a while for someone to feel friendly after you apologize.You might need to give the other person some time.Even after you say you're sorry,you might still feel bad about what you said or did-but you can feel good about apologizing and about making up your mind to do better.When someone apologizes to you,you might not feel like being friendly again right away.Once in a while,if a person doesn't change,you might not want to be friends anymore.You might feel glad that the other person apologized and admitted being wrong.But if someone keeps behaving in mean ways or does something that keeps hurting,you might not feel the same way anymore.Someone apologizes to you;it doesn't mean you have to be friendly again.That part is up to you.1.The first paragraph is mainly to tell us that ________.A.kids often make mistakes at schoolB.parents often force kids to do somethingC.apologizing to others is rather difficultD.it is common for people to apologize to others2.The writer sugges ts that grown­ups should set a good example of ________.A.working hardB.making an apologyC.doing good deedsD.making mistakes3.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to ________.A.promising to do betterB.a lot of goodC.fixing mistakesD.saying “I'm sorry”4.What would you like your friend to say to you if he/she hurts you?A.“I am really wrong.”B.“Excuse me.”C.“I beg your pardon?”D.“What's wrong with you?”5.The passage mainly deals with a topic about ________. A.politics B.history C.communication D.science课时作业(二)Ⅰ.1.puzzled 2.recognized 3.volunteers 4.ignored 5.reduced 6.sniffed 7.analyse8.sweat 9.firmly 10.approachⅡ.1.A句意:哦,我看到他就停下来冲他微笑,但是他没理我就走了。

advertising on our lives has changed over the years.In the early days,advertising for toys and other products for children was mainly targeted toward parents and their message was direct.Today,however,things have changed.Many ads are aimed at kids.These have always been advertisers who market to children.However,many years ago it was a bit easier to recognize what was an advertisement and what wasn't.Advertisements were limited to display in a store,a newspaper ad,or a brief show on TV or radio.Today,however,half of the clothing that kids wear includes an advertisement of one sort or another.The influence of advertising is increasingly far­reaching.Today,ads are less recognizable as a sales pitch(陷阱).For instance,while eating at a fast food restaurant,a child may receive a toy.That toy may also be tied to a movie,a video game,or to a website that offers additional games,toys,and related products.There are a seemingly limitless number of products that are then presented to the child.These ads for children create a need where none existed before.They also attract children and their parents into an endless buying of more products.There are also other factors that have increased the influence of advertising on our children.Children today watch far more television than they did in the early days of TV.In addition,they are online where advertising is common as well.The influence of advertising has permeated(渗透到)much of what our children do and see.1.What's the main idea of the passage?A.You shouldn't believe what advertising tells you.B.The influence of advertising on children has increased.C.Increasing the influence of advertising is hard.D.The history of advertising dates back to many years ago.2.In the past,advertising for children's products ________.A.was aimed directly at childrenB.was not very commonC.could be recognized more easilyD.couldn't be seen on TV3.The author thinks today's ads are a sales pitch because ________.A.they don't always tell the truthB.the products they advertise are of low qualityC.the products they advertise are usually expensiveD.they usually attract people to buy more things4.What can we infer from the passage?A.Ads for kids are more than before.B.Ads are cheaper than before.C.Ads can't create needs.D.Ads have a greater effect on adults.5.What will the following paragraph most probably talk about?A.The benefits of advertising.B.How to make advertising creative.C.The influence of TV and the net on advertising.D.The future of advertising for children.BHomestay in

was the old mid­winter festival in pre­Christian times,around the time of the longest night and the shortest day.Christmas in the 21st century has many traditions:Christmas trees,cards and presents.Presents and shoppingShops can make about 60 per cent of their year's income in the three months before Christmas.So most shops get ready for it in October.The shopping centres are beautifully decorated and stay open late at night.The first time this happened was in 1867 when Macy's,a famous shop in New York,stayed open until midnight on Christmas Eve(24th December).TreesBy mid­December,almost every house,shop and street has a Christmas tree.This tradition was started by the Germans as early as 700 AD.In the northern countries of the world,winter is cold and dark and

According to a report, 39 million Americans will be 65 or older by the year 2010,51million by 2020,and 65 million by 2030.The “graying”of the United States is mainly due to the fact that people in the U. S. are living longer. As a matter of fact,the number of U. S. citizens 85 years old and older is growing six times as fast as the rest of the population. It is also largely due to the old­growing of the“baby boomers”,the generation born after World War Ⅱ. In 1957,over 4.3 million babies were born. More than 75 million Americans were born between 1946 and 1964,the largest generation in U. S. history. In less than twenty years, millions of them will become elderly people.The“graying”of the U. S. will greatly affect the nation's family and workforce; one likely development will be a gradual change in the family unit; it will move away from the nuclear family and towards a multi­generational family. The other likely development will be a change in the proportion (比例) of the nation's workforce. In 1989 there were 3.5 workers for every person 65 and older; by the year 2030,there will only be 2 workers for every person 65 and older.Title 51.________Section B (10 marks)Time management is a skill that can be learned.

A daily “to­do” list may assist you in knowing what needs to be done immediately.Get a copy of your school calendar and put in the important dates and holidays, so you will know when to expect tests and other important events.In order to use your time wisely, put your assignments in a priority order with the most difficult one first.If you do your most difficult task at the beginning, it will be out of the way and the others will be easier.Be sure to schedule enough time to study and start studying in a distraction free environment.Schedule time to allow for tests, papers, and speeches. These larger assignments may need to be broken down into smaller bits and pieces.Be sure to go over your lecture notes within a twenty­four­hour time period to keep the material fresh in your mind.
