Several times, it 36 several obstacles in its path. And after a momentary pause it would make the necessary detour（繞道）. 37 one point, the ant had to cross a crack about 10 mm wide. After some 38 thoughts, the ant laid the feather over the crack, walked 39 it and picked the feather up on the other side, then continued on its way. I was 40 by the cleverness of this ant. It was only a small insect, lacking in 41 yet equipped with a brain to reason, explore, discover and overe. 42 this ant, like the other two-legged creatures 43 on the earth, also shares human failings. After some time the ant 44 reached its destination a flower bed and a small hole that was the entrance to its 45 home. It was there that the ant met its 46 . How could that large feather possibly 47 such a small hole? Of course, it couldnt. So the ant, after all this 48 and using great brightness, overing problems all along the way, just gave up the 49 and went home.

Consumers may be convinced to buy a product of poor quality or high price because of an advertisement. For example, some advertisers have appealed to peoples desire for better fuel economy for their cars by advertising automotive products that improve gasoline mileage（里程）. Some of the products work. Others are worthless and a waste of consumers money. Sometimes advertising is intentionally misleading. A few years ago a brand of bread was offered to dieters with the message that there were fewer calories in every slice. It turned out that the bread was not dietetic, but just regular bread. There were fewer calories because it was sliced very thin, but there were the same number of calories in every loaf. On the positive side, emotional appeals may respond to a consumers real concerns. Consider fire insurance. Fire insurance may be sold by appealing to fear or loss. But fear of loss is the real reason for fire insurance. The security of knowing that property（財(cái)產(chǎn)） is protected by insurance makes the purchase of fire insurance a worthwhile investment for most people. If consumers consider the quality of the insurance plans as well as the message in the ads, they will benefit from the advertising. Each consumer must evaluate her or his own situation. Are the benefits of the product important enough to justify buying it? Advertising is intended to appeal to consumers, but it does not force them to buy the product. Consumers still control the final buying decision.56. Advertising can persuade the consumer to buy worthless products by _. A. stressing their high qualityB. convincing him of their low priceC. maintaining a balance between quality and priceD. appealing to his buying motives57. The reason why the bread advertisement was misleading is that _. A. thin slices of bread could contain more caloriesB. the loaf was cut into regular slicesC. the bread was not genuine breadD. the total number of calories in the loaf remained the same58. The passage tells us that _. A. sometimes advertisements really sell what the consumer needsB. advertisements occasionally force consumers into buying things they dont needC. the buying motives of consumers are controlled by advertisementsD. fire insurance is seldom a worthwhile investment59. It can be inferred from the passage that a smart consumer should _. A. think carefully about the benefits described in the advertisementsB. guard against the deceiving nature of advertisementsC. be familiar with various advertising strategiesD. avoid buying products that have strong emotional appeals60. The passage is mainly about _. A. how to make a wise buying decisionB. ways to protect the interests of the consumerC. the positive and negative aspects of advertisingD. the function of advertisements in promoting salesB Today, the world is rapidly urbanizing. With half of the world population expected to live in cities by the early part of the 21st century, the Shanghai xx World Expos focus on a better city bears profound meaning. What might future cities look like 28 years from now? Here are some scenarios: things to e, things to go. Zero waste Waste disposal is one of the biggest headaches for cities. Apart from recyclable waste, everything is buried or incinerated（焚燒）, only to pollute the environment. Plastic waste remains underground for several decades. The world produces much more garbage than it can dispose of. Now at the Expo, all waste is delivered to a pression station where the waste is sorted, filtered, decontaminated, deodorized and pressed before finally being disposed of at designated spots. In Beijing, people living in the Asuwei area turn their household waste into organic fertilizers which are used to grow plants at residence munities. No more transportation problems during Spring Festival The Spring Festival, the most important Chinese holiday when everyone returns home, has caused headaches for millions of Chinese. More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making obtaining travel tickets and the journey difficult. But in 28 years, Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all. China plans to have more than 120,000 kilometers of railway and a rapid transportation network that will serve 90 percent of the population by 2020. And because most of China will be cities, people will not have to go to other places to find a job, so migration will no longer be so large-scale. Newspapers to disappear American scholar Philip Meyer predicts that newspaper will e to an end in 2043. Utagawa Reizou, former editor-in-chief of The Mainichi Daily News, believes that the newspaper will be gone in 2030. This kind of prediction may worry those in print news business. In the U . K. , the circulations of national newspapers are declining. Major Japanese newspapers have gone into debt. In the U. S. ,declining circulations and ad revenues have forced several newspapers to stop printing paper editions. Media tycoon Rupert Murdoch thinks the future of media relies on interaction through the Internet. In the future, digital newspapers will be sent to portal web terminals through wirelessly. Readers can discuss issues with journalists and editors. Information will move faster. Oil to run out In August xx, Fatih Birol, chief economist of the International Energy Agency, said that oil is running out faster than expected and that the world will likely feel the tightness in supply in the next five years. Scientists have found substitutes for oil as fuel. Coal, natural gas, soar power, nuclear power and even water can replace oil as sources of energy. Flammable ice reserves alone can support humans for the next 1,000 years.61. By now, the world population in cities has grow to about _. A. 6.9 billion B. 0.75 billion C. 3.5 billion D. 1.3 billion62. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. Everything buried or incinerated, besides recyclable waste, pollutes the environment.B. People deal with their household waste in an environmentally-friendly way in the Asuwei area, Beijing.C. More than 2 billion people suffer from headaches during the Spring Festival in China.D. By 2020, 90 percent of the population will have to go to other places to find a job.63. According to the American predictor Philip Meyer, what will happen in 2043? A. Newspaper will disappear.B. Japan has to stop printing newspapers.C. Digital newspaper will be sent to portal web terminals.D. Information will move faster.64. _ can replace oil as sources of energy in the future. A. Coal and natural gas B. Solar power and nuclear powerC. Water and flammable ice reserves D. All the above65. Which of the following can be best title for the passage? A. The Shanghai xx World ExpoB. What will city life be like in 28 yearsC. A rapid urbanizing worldD. Things to e, things to goCNearly everyone agrees that money doesnt buy as much as it used to, no matter where you want to spend it. This is certainly true of the paper money that passes so quickly through ones hands. Inflation（通貨膨脹） eats away at its buying power just as the steady appetite of waves chews at sand cliffs. But what about coins that seem to do little except clutter up purses and pockets? Unlike notes, metal money bees more valuable the longer it is held. Especially if it is put away where it wont get scratched or worn. Why is this? One reason is that coins, being more durable, fall more readily into a category for collectors. Naturally, the rarer gold pieces must bee more valuable as the price of this metal goes up. But, curiously, one of the rarest coins in the world is not made of gold, but of the relatively cheaper silver. In 1840, the United States mint struck 19,570 silver dollars. That is what its records show. Today only six of this original number remain and these are unlikely ever to reach the auction market. So what happened to some 19,564 large silver coins, not the easiest sort of things to lose? One of the more romantic theories is that they were part of the payment to Napoleon for the American territory then known as Louisiana. But they never reached France. Somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico, the ship transporting them was sunk, either by a storm or by pirates. The probable answer to the mystery is that they were melted down since the silver value was greater than the actual value of the coins. What is known is that whoever can e up with one will find himself instantly rich.66. It can be inferred from the passage that _. A. money buys as much as it did beforeB. money does not buy as much as it did beforeC. paper money buys more than metal moneyD. metal money buys more than paper money67. Which of the following is true of a coin? A. The longer it is held, the less valuable it bees.B. The more it wears out, the more valuable it bees.C. The less it gets scratched, the less it values.D. The longer it lasts, the more it values.68. According to this passage, one of the rarest coins in the world is made of _. A. silver B. gold C. copper D. paper69. Coins bee more valuable because _. A. they clutter up purses and pocketsB. the price of metal goes upC. they fall more readily into a category for collectors due to their durationD. both B and C70. What really happened to some 19, 564 large silver coins? A. They were melted down.B. They were sunk in the Gulf of Mexico.C. Its still a mystery.D. They were stolen by pirates.D President Coolidges statement, “The business of America is business.” still points to an important truth today that business institutions have more prestige（威望） in American society than any other kind of organization, including the government. Why do business institutions possess this great prestige? One reason is that Americans view business as being more firmly based on the ideal of petition than other institutions in society. Since petition is seen as the major source of progress and prosperity by most Americans, petitive business institutions are respected. petition is not only good in itself, it is the means by which other basic American values such as individual freedom, equality of opportunity, and hard work are respected. petition protects the freedom of the individual by ensuring that there is no monopoly（壟斷）of power. In contrast to one, all powerful government, many businesses pete against each other for profits. Theoretically,
