My topic is “____________”.Now in the 21st century, advertising is more and more important for people. Why? I think it is because through advertising, people, especially the businessmen, can introduce their products to the people all over the world. Because of this, many companies spend a lot of money on advertising. As we all know, there are many advertisements which are very interesting and popular. For example, Michael Jordan made an interesting advertisement for Nike. From this you can see how the companies make their products known to the world.People can make a lot of money through advertising. It is known that many famous singers andmovie stars make money in this way. However, I don’t think this is a good way for them to make money, because they are not the professional（职业的）advertisers, especially those who advertise in medicine advertisements.Nowadays, advertising not only means making the products known, but also means making ourselves known to people around us. Living today, we have to make people believe in us if we want to do important jobs. But how can this be done? We should first let other people know our good side: the good habits and abilities we have. In short, we should always remember to advertise ourselves to others. As I said before, advertising is not only important for companies but also for everyone, for all human beings. This is the most interesting thing about advertising.33. The best topic to fill in the line in the first paragraph is “____________”.A. The Importance of AdvertisingB. Making Money through AdvertisingC. Advertising OurselvesD. Advice on Advertisements34. This passage may be a（an）____________.A. advertisementB. storyC. speechD. report35. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT right?A. Many companies are willing to spend money on advertising.B. Advertising can make some people rich.C. People can introduce their products through advertisements.D. Advertising is not necessary for anyone.36. What does the writer think of the advertisement made by Michael Jordan?A. He thinks it helps to introduce the product.B. He thinks it is right for him to make money.C. He thinks it costs too much money.D. He thinks Michael Jordan is a professional advertiser.DOne terribly cold day, a snowstorm hit our area. Needing firewood, I quickly set out with my best friend, Bruce, to look for a tree to cut down. Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can be dangerous. So it was important to have a friend who could warn me of dangers.When I chose a big 23-meter-tall tree and prepared to cut it down, Bruce suddenly warned me, “Don’t cut down that tree! It’s too close to the power line!” I wasn’t sure about it. So I decided to disregard his warning. I couldn’t wait to finish the job and go back home. I began cutting down the tree. When the tree fell, there was no longer any doubt whether my friend was right.The tree caught the power line, bringing it to the ground. I considered cutting the tree off the line. After all, electricity can’t travel through wood. As I reached out my finger to touch the tree, pain ran up my arm and through my head. I had been shocked!After I returned home and told my mother what happened, she quickly called the power company. Workers from the power company soon arrived. One of them asked if I had touched the tree, and when I told him I had, his face turned pale. “You should have been killed,” he said. It was my boots that saved my life.Within two hours, the workers removed the tree. Soon the snowstorm calmed down——but not my mother. Even though she was glad that I wasn’t hurt, m y mother was still serious with me. Afterall（毕竟）, I shouldn’t have brushed off my friend’s warning.37.

When the tree was cut down, the writer realized his friend was right.D. When the tree caught the power line, Bruce called the power company.40. In the passage, the writer mainly wanted to tell us ____________.A. one of his terrible experiences when cutting down a treeB. not to cut trees down any more to prevent dangers from happeningC. it’s important to listen to other people’s opinionsD. to be careful while we’re working with friends四、词汇运用（共l0小题；每小题l分，计l0分）根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。
