For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice. 35 Packaging is a very i
18、mportant form of advertising. A package can sometimes motivate people to buy products. For example, a little child might ask for a breakfast food contained in a box with a picture of a TV character. The child is more interested in the picture than in breakfast food. Pictures for children to color or
19、 cut out, games printed on a package, or a small gift inside a box also motivate many children to buy products or to ask their parents to buy for them. Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing. Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this. Although a simila
20、r product in plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish, because they believe the container is free. However, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product. The size of a package also motivates a buyer. Maybe the package has “E
21、conomy Size“ or “Family Size“ printed on it. This suggests that the larger size has the most product for the least money. But that is not always true. To find it out, a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit. The information on the package should provide some answe
22、rs. But the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often an advertisement. The words and pictures do not tell the whole story.

23、 pays for （ B） a buyer will get more than what he pays for （ C） a buyer will get something useful free of charge （ D） a buyer will get more but pay less 37 From the passage we know the buyer pays more attention to_. （ A） the size of a container （ B） a container with attractive picture （ C） a well-de
24、signed container （ D） a plain container with low cost 38 What suggestion does the writer give in the passage? （ A） Its not good to buy the product which is sold in a glass or dish. （ B） The quality of a container has nothing to do with the quality of the product. （ C） The best choice for a buyer is
25、to buy a product in a plain package. （ D） A buyer should buy what he needs most rather than a well-designed package. 39 Which of the following sentences is NOT true according to the passage? （ A） In fact glasses or dishes used for packaging do not cost money at all. （ B） Family Size printed on the p
26、ackage means that it is rather economic. （ C） To a child, even to an adult, the form is far more important than the content. （ D） Words and pictures written on the package are thought to be an advertisement. 40 What do you think is the best title for the passage? （ A） How to Package a Product. （ B）
27、How to Make an Advertisement. （ C） How to Sell Product. （ D） How to Attract More Buyers. Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1.

29、w the stars in their long-distance flights. A dove had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. But it had an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The birds cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that
30、taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the artificial stars caused a change in the direction of his flight. But the stars are apparently their main means of navigation. When the stars are hidden by clouds, they apparently find their way by such landmarks as river courses, mounta
31、in ranges, coast lines.
