Part Ⅰ Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)

Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, D. You should decide the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Passage 1

Modern mass-production methods lower the cost of making goods, and thus give us better values. At the same time, American ingenuity and science are constantly at work improving the quality of products. In this way, better quality products at good values are continually being brought to the people of all income groups.

As an example of how this works, when facial tissues were first put on the market in 1924, they were made in limited quantities and sold at 65 cents per box of 200. People liked these facial tissues immediately and began asking for them when they went into different stores. Because there was such a demand for the product, manufacturers began making tissues in larger and larger quantities. Because the manufacturers were making tissues in greater quantities, their production costs were lowered, so that the cost of tissues went down. In the meanwhile, the quality of facial tissues was constantly improved because more manufacturers went into the business of making tissues and each manufacturer strove to make his product better than his competitors. Today, instead of costing 65 cents, a box of 200 facial tissues costs around one-third of that price, and they are both softer and stronger.

When people are free to compete—when they are free to make more things and make them better—everyone benefits.

It is true that times are changing for the old people in Britain. But not all the changes are bad ones. Modern medicine, for example, has made old people healthier than ever before. Another advantage is that there are many more old people than there used to be. This means that old people often have a good social life with their own clubs and organizations. Old people, too, have more money now than their own parents and grandparents had.

The biggest disadvantage of modern life is loneliness. The young leave home when they grow up and many old people live alone. Fewer old people have brothers and sisters. An old person’s one or two children may have moved to another part of the country. Even when they live nearby, the young people have their own work to do and their own children to look after. They have not much time for the old. Problems of loneliness often start

when people stop work. When people retire they often find it difficult to start a new life without their jobs.

The world has changed so fast since 1900 that it is difficult for old people to understand the problems of the young. And the world is changing even faster these days than it was fifty years ago. It makes you thin, doesn’t it? What will it be like when today’s young people are old?

6. To the old people, the changes in society are _________. A. better than they expected B. not as good as they wish C. both good and bad D. difficult to understand 7. According to this passage, the old people today_____. A. often go to clubs with their brothers and sisters B. prefer lonely life to social life

C. live more happily than their parents and grandparents D. like to share their feeling and thoughts with other people

8. Although some old people live near their sons or daughters, _________. A. they still feel lonely

B. they want to move to other places

C. they have no time to look after the young people’s children D. they like to live with their own brothers and sisters

9. In the last century, old people did not have so many problems because_______. A. they had big families

B. they lived with their children C. the young were kind to the old D. the society didn’t change so rapidly 10. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Modern society only belongs to the young. B. Modern life has brought new problems to the old.

C. Today’s young people are happier than their parents. D. It is necessary to take better care of the old people. Passage 3

One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. It shouts at us from the television screens and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights at night.

Advising has been among England’s biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer.

At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that it confers(赋予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.

Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another some alteration seems called for—how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.

11. Which of the following can best describe the author’s attitude toward modern advertising?

A. Indifferent. B. Shocked. C. Disappearing D. Approving

12. According to the author, which is NOT the designer’s chief concern when he designs a product?

A. Stress factors. B. Man-hours. C. Machine tolerance D. Customer-appeal 13. It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a product customer-appeal are_____.

A. customers B. designers C. advertisers D. manufacturers

14. According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, a manufacturer will choose to _________.
