28、. The students who use dictionaries the most do not learn especially well, either. The ones who looked up every new word do not read fast. Therefore they do not have time to read much. Those who use small two-language dictionaries have the worst problems. Their dictionaries often give only one or tw

29、o words as a translation of English. But one English word often has many translations in a foreign language and one foreign word has many translations in English. The most successful students were those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100, 000 words but do not use them too ofte

30、n. Whey they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand new words from the context. Then they reread and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still de not understand. They use dictionaries more for writing. If they are not sure how to spell a word,

31、 or divide it into syllables (音节 ) ,they always use a dictionary. Also if they think a noun might have an unusual plural or a verb might have an unusual past tense, they checked them in a dictionary. 58 The writer tends to think that _. （ A） choose a good dictionary, and youll succeed in learning En

She

35、 copied their actions and way of life-eating plants and getting down on her hands and knees to walk tile way a gorilla does. It was a new relationship. Diane Fossey was murdered in Rwanda in 1985 and her story was made into the popular film Gorillas in the Mist. It was a long way from King Kong, whi

36、ch is about a gorilla as a monster (a frightening animal), and helped to show a new idea: the real monster is man, while the gorilla is to be admired. Today there are thought to be around 48, 000 lowland gorillas and maybe 400 -450 mountain gorillas in the wild. From the Congo in West Africa, to Rwa

37、nda and Uganda further east, they are endangered by hunting and by the cutting down of their forest homes. Some time age, I found in my letterbox a little magazine from the World Wide Fund for Nature. It had two photos side by side. One was of a young gorilla. “This is a species of mammal(哺乳类动物 ) ,“

38、said the words below it. “It is being destroyed by man. We must save it for our own good. “The other photo showed a human baby. The words also read,“ This is a species of mammal,“ but then went on: “It is the most destructive(破坏性的 ) on earth. We must retrain it for its own good.“ 61 The text mainly

41、live peacefully with the gorilla. 64 There are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. How? Packaging(包装 ) is the silent but persuading salesman. There on the shelves, each bottle, can, box, and jar has been carefully designed an

42、d measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer(消费者 ), so that is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality“ of the product and on how well it sells, becaus

43、e“ Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products, “as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers“ feeling for packaging, noticed. Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement ha

44、ve shown that colors draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it is very good for your body. And the word “green“ today can keep food prices going up. Shapes are another attraction. Circles

45、often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. Thats why the round yellow M signs of McDonalds are inviting to both young and old. This new consumer response (反应 )to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that peopl

46、e buy to satisfy both body and soul. 64 According to the passage, _ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the product. （ A） the pleasing color of the package （ B） the special taste of the product （ C） the strange shape of the package （ D） the belief in the product 65 If a package or a produ
