It is possible that it grew out of the discovery that some people did certain kinds of work better than others did them. That led to the concept of specializatio
10、n, which means that people would specialize, or focus, on doing one specific job. Lets take a man well 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.
11、 However, he didnt 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 Mr. Plowright. Using what
12、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. P
13、lowright 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
14、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 t
15、he 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,
16、 just the human voice and maybe some kind of simple instrument, such as a bell, were used to get peoples 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
17、, 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
18、too different from a TV or radio commercial in todays world. 【小题 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. 【小题 2】 To advertise his plows, Mr. Plowright _. A praised h

21、 the history of advertising B the benefits of advertising C the early forms of advertising D the basic design of advertising 答案: 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 B 【小题 3】 A 【小题 4】 D 【小题 5】 C Bad teeth can be painful and even be deadly. Infections of the gums(牙龈 ) and teeth can release bacteria into the blood system.
22、 Those bacteria can increase the chance of a heart attack or stroke and worsen the effects of other diseases. And adults are not the only ones at risk. For example, a 12-year-old boy died when a tooth infection spread to his brain in 2007 in Washington. Experts said it might have been prevented had
23、he received the dental care he needed. Experts say good dental care starts at birth. Breast milk, they say, is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow bacterial growth and acid production in the mouth. But dentists say a babys gums and early teeth should be clea
24、ned after each feeding by using a cloth with a little warm water. Experts say if you decide to put your baby to sleep with a bottle, give only water. When baby teeth begin to appear, you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes made especially for
25、babies and to use them very gently. The use of fluoride(氟化 物 ) to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. For example, it is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel(釉质 ), the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming. But young children ofte
26、n swallow toothpaste when they brush their teeth. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry notes that swallowing fluoridated toothpaste can cause problems. So young children should be carefully watched when they brush their teeth. And only a small amount of fluoridated toothpaste, the size of a p
27、ea, should be used. Parents often wonder what effect finger sucking might have on their babys teeth. Dental experts generally agree that this is fine early in life. Most children stop sucking their fingers by the age of four. If it continues, experts advise parents to talk to their childrens dentist
28、s or doctors. Because it could interfere_with the correct development of permanent teeth. Dentists say children should have their first dental visit at least by the time they are one year old. They say babies should be examined when their first teeth appearusually at around six months. 【小题 1】 Accord
29、ing to the passage, what is the function of fluoride A Making the surface on teeth much cleaner. B Protecting gums from being infected. C Keeping holes on teeth from forming. D Slowing down bacterial growth and acid production. 【小题 2】 The underlined phrase “interfere with” in Para.5 probably means “
30、_” A do harm to B account for C contribute to D stand for 【小题 3】 What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage A To warn us of the deadly infections of gums and teeth. B To introduce the advantages of fluoridated toothpaste. C To draw our attention to the dental care of young children. D
31、To present the research results about dental care. 答案: 【小题 1】 C 【小题 2】 A 【小题 3】 C 【小题 1】答案: C 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句 “The fluoride mixes with enamel(釉质 ), the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming.”可知,答案:为 C项。 【小题 2】答案: A 词义猜测题。根据上文中 “大多数孩子到四岁就不吮吸手指了。但如果继续的话,专家建议父母要去和孩子的牙医或儿科医生谈一谈 ”,以及该短语所在句的内容可推知, do harm to“损害 ”与该短语的意思最为接近。 【小题 3】答案: C 推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可推知作者写这篇文章旨在提醒父母要关注小孩子的牙齿健康。故选 C项。 疑难词汇解读 1 bacteria n细菌 bacterial contamination细菌感染 2 suck vt.吮吸,嘬 suck milk through a straw用吸 管吸牛奶喝
