19、s: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 33 There was one thing I found rather strange on my first day at Monk s House. The bathroom was directly above the kitchen and when Mrs. Grane was bathing before breakf
20、ast. I could, through the thin floor, hear her whispering to herself, asking questions and giving herself the answers. When Mr. Crane saw that I looked so surprised he told me that Mrs. Crane always said the sentences out loud that she had written at night. She wanted to know if they sounded right a
21、nd the bath was a good place for trying them out. Every morning, when we carried the breakfast trays to Mrs. Crane s room I noticed that she had always been working during the night. There were pencils and paper beside her bed so that when she woke up she could work, and sometimes it seemed as if sh
22、e had got very little sleep. Mrs. Cranes bedroom was outside the house in the garden; I used to think how inconvenient it must be to have to go out in the rain to go to bed. Her bedroom had been added on to the back of the house; the door faced the garden and a window at the side opened out to a fie
23、ld. I remember that cow came one night and put its head in through the window. It amused Mrs. Crane very much, but in case it happened again Mr. Crane bought the field adding part of it to the garden. Because the writing room was small, he had a larger one built for her at the end of the garden agai
24、nst the church wall. She was tall and thin and very graceful. She had large, deep-set eyes and a wide curving mouth I think perhaps it was this that made her face seem particularly beautiful. Mrs. Crane wore clothes that suited her well. She was not capable of sewing, although sometimes she liked to
25、 try. There was one thing in the kitchen that Mrs. Crane carried it out. She returned two or three times a morning, work at it.

30、e might not think so from some of the criticism of it, advertising is essential to the kind of society in which people in the United Kingdom, and a very considerable proportion of the world at large, live. Advertising is indispensable as a means of commnuicating with others, of telling them about th
31、e goods and services that are provided, and of which most of them would never get to hear at all if it were not for advertising. And advertising is extremely helpful to promote a rising standard of living. In talking about advertising, one should not think only in terms of a commercial on television
32、, or an advertisement in the newspapers or periodicals. In its widest sense, advertising includes a host of other activities such as packaging, shop displays and in the sense of communication even the spoken word of the salesman. After all, the resources of advertising are to be found in the market
33、place. For many years it was considered that it was enough to produce goods and supply services. It is only more recently that it has become increasingly understood that the manufacture of goods is a waste of resources unless those goods can be sold at a fair price within a reasonable time span. In
34、he competitive society in which we live, it is important that we go out and sell what we have, and advertising plays an important role in this aspect, whether selling at home or in export markets. About two percent of the UK gross national product is relied on advertising. But it must not be thought
35、 that this advertising tries to sell goods to consumers who do not want them. Certainly, advertising does try to attract the interest of the potential consumer, but if the article when purchased does not match up to the standards that the advertising suggests that it will, it is obviously exceedingl
36、y unlikely that the article will sell well. 39 According to the text advertising is important to_. ( A) every potential consumer in the world ( B) large countries in the world ( C) people with a high standard of living ( D) a large number of people in the world 40 Advertising has its origins in_. (
37、A) shop window displays and the wrapping of goods ( B) face to face contact between sellers and buyers ( C) the communicative abilities of a trained sales person ( D) articles in newspapers and magazines 41 People have realized that resources are wasted if goods_. ( A) are not of lasting value ( B)
38、are not sold at a high price ( C) remain unsold for a long time ( D) remained unsold in export markets 42 The text makes a point that goods will sell well if_. ( A) advertisements show the true value of them ( B) enough money is spent on advertising ( C) advertisements are well designed ( D) they ar
39、e of high quality 43 The best title of this passage would be_. ( A) Benefits of Advertising ( B) A Brief History of Advertising in the UK ( C) Limitations of Advertising ( D) Production and Advertising 43 “Now we re more than halfway; only two miles away from the tavern, “said the driver. “I m glad
40、of that ! “answered the stranger, in a sympathetic mood. He wanted to say more but the east wind blew clear down a man s throat if he tried to speak. The girl s voice was something quite charming, however, and at present he spoke again. “You don t feel the cold so much at 20 below zero out in the We
41、stern Country. There s none of this damp chill, “ he said, and then it seemed as though he had blamed the uncomplaining young driver. She had not even said that it was an awful day, and he began to be conscious of a warm hopefulness of spirit, and sense of pleasant adventure under all the woollen sh
42、awls. “You ll have a cold drive going back, “ he said in earnest, and put up his hand for the thirtieth time to see if his coat-collar were as colse to the back of his neck as possible. He had wished a dozen times for the warm old hunting rig in which he had many a day confronted the worst of weathe
43、r in the Northwest. “I shall not have to go back!“ exclaimed the girl, with eager pleasantness. “I m on my way home now. I drove over early just to meet you at the train.
