Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked ABC and DYou should decide on the best choice, and write it in the brackets “”. Passage 1 Advertising follows us everywhere. Whenever we turn on the television, listen to the radio or open a newspaper or magazine, we are bombarded with advertisements. They invite us to try a new type of orange juice, wear X-brand jeans or watch the latest film. They beg us to notice the difference and discover the advantages. They exist to make us want what they are selling. Strangely, the more we are exposed to advertising, the less we notice it. We get so used to seeing advertisements everywhere that they become largely invisible, as if they were another part of our everyday lives. But do that mean that we are no longer affected by them? One advertising expert believes that the special power of advertising lies in the fact that we do not pay much attention to it. Dr. Krugman, who was head of research for a major advertising company for many years, says that the less we notice ads, the more we are affected by them. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing advertisements, we lower our defenses, allowing the messages of the advertisements to be taken in and stored, ready to be triggered into action at the right moment. He says that the effects of advertising on the individual are small, but over a period of time they have a powerful effect on the masses. A market analyst says that all advertising, no matter how innocent, is misleading in some way. When asked about the power of advertising in research surveys, most people agree that it works, but not on them. Almost everyone believes that they have complete control over how thousands of ads they see every day affect them.

51. Ads exist to make people want . (A)a new type of orange juice (B)X-brand jeans (C)to watch the latest film (D)what they advertise

52. The more we see ads, the less we . (A)pay attention to them (B)feel tired of them (C)neglect them (D)put up with them

54. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing ads, we begin to . (A)like them (B)be on guard against them (C)accept them (D)dislike them

55. When asked about the power of ads, most people agree that ads are ineffective on . (A)individuals (B)masses (C)others (D)them Passage 2 Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving away. If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. AI was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. “Wasn’t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You don’t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints.”

56. From the passage, we understand that . (A) the author did not understand the importance of giving until he was in late thirties (B)the author was like most people who were mostly receivers rather than givers (C) the author received the same education as most people during his childhood (D) the author liked most people as they looked upon life as a process of getting

(C) he believed he would get something back by doing so. (D) the postman delivered an important letter in time.

59. When the author needed a post office box, . (A) he had to put his name on a waiting list (B)he wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation (C) many people had applied for post-office boxes before him (D)he asked the postmaster to make one for him

60. In reply to the postmaster’s question, the author said . (A) it was the special delivery (B)it was the post-office box (C) it was the note of appreciation he wrote (D)it was he who wrote him a letter a year ago Passage 3 Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip. But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest years for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast increased by 33 percent ―from 8.8 million to 11.7 million ―according to the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation of America. For those who feel pain or guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance.” Said Arnold EBender, the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London. “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.” Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults. “The literature,”says one researcher, Dr. Ernesto Pollitt at the University of Texas, “is poor”.

61. The passage is mainly concerned with . (A)a study of the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation (B)one of life’s essentials (C)latest figures of people who don’t eat breakfast (D)breakfast and human health

62. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that . (A) several studies have been done in the past few years (B)not eating breakfast does no harm to one’s health (C)adults have especially made studies in this field (D)eating little in the morning may be good for health

63. In the third paragraph, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.” means . (A) anyone without breakfast does improve his performance (B) not giving people breakfast improves performance (C)people having breakfast do improve their performance (D) having breakfast does not improve performance, either

64. The word “literature”in the last sentence refers to . (A)stories about breakfast (B) written works on a particular subject (C) any printed materials (D) the modern novels of American

65. What is implied but not stated by the author is that . (A)not eating breakfast might affect the health of children (B)breakfast does not affect performance (C) Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London (D) People who don’t eat breakfast have increased Passage 4 Each day, computers help millions of people do their jobs more effectively. For example, they can help managers decide on a future course of action, and they can then help with the follow-up checks on performance to see if planned goals are being achieved. Busing accurate and timely facts supplied by data base management software, a manager can do a better job of identifying problems and opportunities. And managers may not need to spend as much time in controlling when a computer can respond with a triggered report if actural performance varies from what was planned. The time saved in controlling may allow managers to give more attention to employees’ concerns, and this, in turn, may result in improved morale(士气)。 But employment benefits certainly aren’t restricted to managers. Healthcare researchers and other scientists also use computers to conduct research into complex problem areas that couldn’t otherwise be studied. Lawyers use online legal data banks to locate precedent(先前的) cases in order to serve clients better. Salespeople can receive more timely information about products in stock, can promise customers that their sales orders will be handled promptly, and can thus improve their sales performance because of the computer system. And the job duties of some office and factory workers have changed from routine, repetitive operations to more varied and appealing tasks through computer usage. For example, office workers who understand text processing, computing, and data communication usually have vital roles and are given critical office functions to perform.

66. Which of the following examples shows the controlling function of a computer? (A)Helping managers decide on a future course of action. (B)Helping managers check if planned goals are reached. (C) Helping managers save time in writing a report. (D) Helping managers design a spreadsheet package.
