第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Advertising gives useful information about which products to buy. But modern advertising does more than gives news about products and services. Today’s advertisements, or ads, try to get consumers to buy certain brands. Writers of advertising are so skillful that they can, sometimes persuade a consumer to wear a certain kind of clothing, eat a special kind of cereal, or see a movie. Consumers might never even want a product if they did not see or hear advertisements for it.
　　For example, you probab1y do not need the newest cereal in the supermarket. There are probably many cereal brands on your kitchen shelves. You may not have space on a shelf for another. But if you see ads about a new cereal that is your extra-tasty and has a free prize in the box, you may want it.
Advertising must get attention. To be effective, it must be exciting, entertaining, or provide some pleasure. The secret of writing good advertising copy is to offer a good idea as well as a product. The idea is what the ad is really selling. One example is an ad that says eating a certain cereal will make a person do well in sports. That cereal brand may sell better if consumers think it offers strength and energy.
21. What is discussed in this passage?
　 A. The content of modern advertising.　　
B. The skills of modern advertising.
　 C. The results of modern advertising.　　
D. The writing of modern advertising.
22. Aording to the passage, a good advertisement should ____________.
　　A. be both persuasive and effective　
B. give people useful information
　　C. show people a product　　
D. show people a new idea of a product
23. From the passage, we know that ___________________ .
　　A. modern advertising has less effect on customers 　　
B. once customers see ads about a new cerea1, they are sure to buy it
　　C. cereal can make people strong
　　D. cereal is a kind of food which is popular among people
24. What can we infer from the passage?
　　A. Customers can easily be persuaded by advertisements.
　　B. Customers should be persuaded by advertisements.
　　C. It’s impossible for customers to buy a product without advertisements.
　 D. Customers buy products aording to their demands rather than the advertisements.

A dog-lover has invented a high-tech way of feeding his pet by Twitter（推特，流行社交网络）. puter expert Nat Morris, 30, has designed a system to give his pet a “tweet treat” by sending him a Twitter message.
His dog Toby gets some delicious dog biscuits from a puter-controlled food machine whenever Nat sends a message to “@feedtoby”.
Nat often works away from home and isn’t always able to feed Toby by hand. But his new invention allows Nat to feed his dog from anywhere in the world.
Nat said, “Toby absolutely loves it. At first he didn’t know what was going on. Now he sits underneath the machine, wagging his tail and waiting for the treats to drop.”
Nat fills the food machine with small pieces of dog biscuits, but not too many in case four-year-old Toby gets too many messages. And Nat has even equipped his house with an online camera so he can see Toby enjoying the food at his home.
But one problem is that friends and family have been so amazed with the “Tweet treat” machine that. they have starting to send tweets to Toby too. So Nat has had to restrict feeding time to make sure Toby doesn’t turn into Tubby。
“People have been sending him food at all hours of the day, so I had to limit it to between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.. I’m thinking of doing an updated one which measures his weight before he is fed, just to make sure he’s not putting on too much puppy fat,” explained Nat.
How Nat’s Twitter Feeder Works:
When a message is sent to @feedtoby it is received by a mini-puter that is linked to the food machine.
When the mini-puter receives the message, a bell rings and Toby es running over and sits in front of the feeding machine. Next the machine’s motor pulls open a trap door which releases a serving of food.
The doggy biscuits then drops into Toby's food bowl. Finally a digital camera takes a photo of him and sends it back to Nat on Twitter - so he knows Toby has been fed.

25. Nat has invented a high-tech way to feed his dog because he __________.
A. wants his friends to feed Tody
B. has very strong puting skills
C. is often too busy to feed his dog
D. doesn’t like to feed Tody by hand
26. Why has Nat decided to limit the feeding machine’s opening time?
A. He doesn’t want Toby to get too fat.
B. He fears the machine will run out of food.
C. He wants hid friends to stop feeding Toby.
D. He doesn’t want Toby to be woken up at night.
27. It can be learned from the passage that Toby _______.
A. sits beneath his feeder all day long
B. is now used to being fed by machine
C. doesn’t know what happens to the feeder
D. no longer receives tweets from Nat’s friends
28. Which of the following shows the correct order of how the Twitter Feeder works?
a. The bell goes off.
b. A message is sent to @feedtoby.
c. The mini-puter gets the message.
d. The digital camera takes a photo of Toby and sends it to Nat.
e. The motor starts to work and opens the door to release dog food.
A. a, b, c, e, d B. b, c, e, a, d C. b, c, a, e, d D. c, b, a, d, e
29. In which section of the newspaper would you most probably find this passage?
A. Technology B. Health C. Environment D. Style

As the summer time approaches, more and more mercials and advertisements can be seen on the mass media encouraging students to join English study tours abroad. The purpose of these tours is to provide students with an opportunity to learn English in a native speaking environment and use English in real situations. Parents always believe that their children will automatically speak good English after attending these study tours. However, for me, as an English major and former participant of many English study tours, I find these summer tours ineffective.
Parents who send their children abroad for a summer to study English usually believe that the native speaking environment, including the courses, teachers, and host families, can help their children to learn English better. This might be true if the students really study hard and they really get an all-English environment. But the fact is that, most of the time, the tour part is more important than the study part. Although these tours take place in foreign countries, students are rarely exposed in an all-English environment. You will find that, in the morning classes, Taiwanese students would like to stick together and speak Chinese with each other, even though there are some students from other countries. In the afternoon, the students go on a sightseeing excursion with their panions from Taiwan; they speak Chinese of course. In the evening, when students return to the host families, they would stay in their room and share the day with their roommate, another Taiwanese student. People who speak the same language with you is like a log（原木）in the ocean when living in a foreign country where you can not express yourself well, so that you would naturally stick with them. This is especially true with children.
Another unrealistic expectation parents have for these tours is that the experience of living abroad can make their children more independent and mature. However, maturity does not e overnight. It takes time and practice. The most important of all is that they need a good mentor（顾问）. None of these exist in the study tours.
30. Which of the following is the most important thing for children who study in an English environment aording to the writer?
A. Host families. B. Hard work. C. Courses. D. Teachers.
31. The underlined word “mature” in the last paragraph probably means .
A. active B. free C. outgoing D. grown-up
32. What’s the author’s attitude towards the English study tours abroad?
A. Doubtful. B. Negative. C. Positive. D. Neutral.
D
Tickets for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil have gone on sale, with fans able to apply on FIFA’s website. FIFA is expecting a similar demand to that in Germany 2006, when there were about seven applicants for every ticket of the 64 matches. And now around 3.3 million tickets will be available for the matches in 2014.

Items Prices Items Prices
Ticket ￡58-￡112Final ticket ￡281-￡632
Sun cream ￡9.50T-shirt ￡13
McDonald’s meal ￡11Water ￡1.28
Imported beer ￡3.83Domestic beer ￡1.91
Coffee ￡2.55Average dinner ￡29
“It’s always difficult to predict,” said FIFA marketing director Thierry Weil. “But I truly believe that it will be more similar to what happened in Germany than in South Africa in 2010.”Aording to FIFA, the 2006 World Cup was attended by more than 3.3 million fans. Almost two million tickets were sold to the general public in South Africa, although the number of applications during the first ticketing phase was significantly lower.
All applications made before 10th October 2013 will enter a random selection draw if there are not enough tickets available to fulfill all requests. The sales of the leftover tickets will begin on 5th November on a first-e, first-served basis. Another phase will begin on 8th December after the draw is made. The tournament begins on 12th June, with Brazil playing the opener in Sao Paulo.
A study on the price of World Cup 2014 looked at the ticket prices and the cost of travelling to Brazil and found that our English fans face hotel costs of between ￡46 and ￡797 a night, while packages range from ￡2,999 to ￡14,999.
33. How much should a Brazilian student pay for the opening match?
A.￡15 B.￡58 C.￡112 D.￡632
34. From the passage we know that Thierry Weil_______.
A. feels proud of what they achieved in South Africa 2010
B. feels worried about the sales of the tickets for Brazil 2014
C. holds the belief that Brazil 2014 will be the greatest world cup
D. believes that more fans will attend Brazil 2014 than South Africa 2010
35. What will FIFA do if there are not enough tickets available for requests before Oct.10, 2013?
A. They will sell the spare tickets to the applicants.
B. They will sell on a first-e, first-served basis.
C. They will choose the applicants based on a random selection draw.
D. They will sell them the tickets to be sold on Dec.8.

Peer（同龄人）Pressure
Peer pressure is just part of the challenges in life. 36 If you need further guidance, this article might help you. It provides three effective tips to deal with it:
Be with friends who respect your beliefs
You can go out with people who aept and respect the things you believe in and those who you know you can share your interests with. It is all right to be choosy with friends because you just want what is best for them and you. 37 You are just exhibiting what you know is right and good for both sides. Your friends will understand you for that. They can drag you away from discrimination and you can be confident that they will not leave you for your stand in life.
38
When you are driven by so many peer pressures, you can always stay away from it. You can actually decide not to be one of them. When you have decided on it, learn to be firm with your decision. 39 They should know that you cannot be forced to do certain things because you are strong and firm with what you believe in.
Learn how to say no
Learning to say no is one big factor to deal with some pressures from all of your friends. When you are convinced to do something you know that can only destroy you or ruin you, learn to say no. 40 You cannot just say yes to anything. You have a functional mind and you know what is best for you. So learn to say no even if saying no means losing your friends.
A. Don’t blame others.
B. Have a firm decision.
C. You should know how to deal with it.
D. You can always deal with it positively.
E. Just be straightforward and say it without hesitation.
F. This does not mean you are being selfish or you are being self-centered.
G. This can make them believe that you cannot just be driven by any other thing.

M: We are glad to have Dr. Garfield to talk to us today about dreams. Let me start by asking the first question. Does everyone dream?
what dreams do is that they help us deal with our problems. We see certain patterns take place in dreams. When a person is hurt deep inside, when a person is seriously ill or when a person has been really sad, if people turn off their dreams totally, it means they don’t love themselves to even think about it.
