There are two main categories: the first is electronic media. It includes the radio, television, cinema and Internet. The radio’s main advantages are that it is cheap and it is an easy target since most of the stations are aimed at a particular market segment. On the other hand, one of the disadvantages is that the publicity reaches fewer people than commercial TV.Television is one of the most popular methods used today. Some of the points in favour of TV ads are: the public is targeted very efficiently, that is to say that advertisements are chosen depending on the program, for example: ads for sweets are associated with cartoons for children, alcohol is only publicized during adult viewing hours; the audience is very large; television allows visual drama to boast the product, which makes it seem more interesting, however exaggerating can make it seem ridiculous. In contrast, this process is the most expensive of all reaching during peak times and it provokes channel hopping since viewers don’t always sit to watch ads.Cinema has the same ups and downs as television except that the audience is limited. Internet advertising is low-priced and has an international coverage although some poorly developed countries have low access to it. On the other hand, this technique presents security problems made by hackers for credit and there is an enormous amount of competition.The second category is the print media, which includes newspapers, magazines, posters and billboards, direct mail and leaflets. The main conveniences in newspaper ads are that they are economical when you use the local ones; they are target selective and can be printed in color differing from the text, what attracts the reader’s attention. On the other hand the cost of these commercials grows if printed in national newspapers. The visual impact is not the same as on TV and finally readers may ignore ads.Ads in magazines are very target selective because they are often destined to a certain segment of the public. Another point in favour of magazine advertising is that they are read by more people and for a longer time than newspapers. But on the other hand this method is expensive but less than national dallies.Posters and billboards are the most popular ways of advertising. This is due to the fact that they are of a dominant size, they have a big frequency of exposure as well as a large audience. But some points against that type of advertising are that it is difficult to target the audience, the information given about the product is very limited and they can be damaged very easily.One of the conveniences in direct mail is that it targets very well particular customers, gives a personalized approach and is easy to measure effectiveness but it can be wrongly targeted and can be considered as “junk mail”.The last method is leaflets, it presents door-to-door coverage and clients are often tempted by special offers, although they are often thrown away and are only local. You can always find other methods and new ones are invented but these were the general ones.Comprehension1.The passage classifies the methods of advertisement into _____ categories.A. 3B. 4C. 2D. 52.According to the passage, we know that security problems to Internet advertising was causedby _____.A.the competitionB.the robbersC.the punksD.the hackers3.From the passage, the ads that attract the largest audiences is _____.A.cinema ads adsC.Internet adsD.Newspapers4.From the passage, we can infer that “junk mail” means _____.A.mails for adsB.mails from close friendsC.mails for helpD.mails from the hackers5.Which of the following statement is true?A.Television is the most popular methods of advertising.B.Advertising on national newspapers is the most expensive method.C.Posters and billboards are the most expensive of all methods.D.Ads in magazines are the most expensive of all methods.Word StudyComplete each sentence with a word or phrase given below (in its appropriate form if necessary). hacker provoke dominant pros and cons promotesegment hop boast coverage destined1.The Soviet Union is the _____ nation of Eastern Europe.2.The boy _____ that his bicycle was of the best quality of all the bicycles in the school.3.He claimed that it was her rudeness that _____ him to strike her.4.Do you have any idea how to _____ the sales of this product?5.Television has its widest _____ among the other mass media.6.

四级阅读:英语词汇阅读练习(四)
(16)Flying over a desert area in an airplane, two scientists looked down with trained eyes at trees and bushes. After an hour's flight one of the scientists wrote in his book, 'Look here for probable metal' Scientists in another airplane, flying over a mountain region,sent a message to other scientists on the ground,'Gold possible.' Walking across hilly ground, four scientists reported,'This ground should be searched for metals.' From an airplane over a hilly wasteland a scientist sent back by radio one word,'Uranium'.None of the scientists had X-ray eyes: they had no magic powers for looking down below the earth's surface. They were merely putting to use one of the newest methods of location minerals in the ground---using trees and plants as signs that certain minerals may lie beneath the ground on which the trees and plants are growing.This newest method of searching for minerals is based on the fact that minerals deep in the earth may affect the kind of bushes and trees that grow on the surface.At Watson Bar Creek, a brook six thousand feet high in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada,a mineral search group gathered bags of tree seeds. Boxed were filled with small banches from te trees. Roots were dug and put into boxes. Each bag and box was carefully marked. In a scientific laboratory the parts of the forest trees were burned to ashes and tested.Each small part was examined to learn whether there were minerals in it.Study of the roots , branches,and seeds showed no silver. But there were small amounts of gold in the roots and a little less gold in the branches and seeds. The seeds growing nearest to the tree trunk had more gold than those growing on the ends of the branches.If the trees had not indicated that there was gold in the ground, the scientists would not have spent money to pay for digging into the deeper. They did dig and found more fold below. They dug deeper. They found large quantities of gold.1.Scientists were flying over a desert or hilly wasteland or a mountain region in order to search for _____ in the ground.a.goldb.silverc.metalsd.minerals2.The study of trees,branches and roots indicates that_______.a.there were larger amounts of gold in the branches than in the seeds.b.there were small amounts of gold in the roots than in the branchesc.there were larger amounts of gold in the seeds growing nearest to the tree trunk than seeds growing on the ends of branches.d.there were more gold in the branches than in the roots3.Which is the best title ?a.Scientists searching for metals with sepcial powerb.New methods of searching for mineralsc.Gold could be found by trees and plantsd.A new method of searching for minerals---using trees and plants4.Which of the following is not mentioned as part of a tree that can help find minerals?a.leavesb.rootsc.branchesd.seeds5.The scientists were searching for minerals by using ______.a.X-rayb.magic powerc.a special instrumentd.trained eyes答案:D C D A D(17)What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow , orange ,red? If you do ,you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet,shy, and you wouldrather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know,because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colours preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. They tells us, among other facts,that we do not choose our favourite clour as we grow up----we are born with our preference.If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. Colours do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it .A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand ,black is depressing. A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area ----until it was repainter green.The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply ;perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue. Light and bright colours make people not only hppier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better,harder ,and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.1."You would rather follow than red" means_______.a.you don't like to follow othersb.you would be a member rather than a leaderc.you would be afraid of following othersd.you would like to be a leader rather than a follower2.If one enjoys life, one is sure to prefer________.a.red to yellowb.blue to orangec.red to greyd.blue to yellow3."They tell us, among other facts,that we don't choose our favourite colours as we grow up." "Among other facts"means______.a.besides other factsb.in regard to other factsc.not considering other factsd.according to other facts4.Which of the following is facts?a.People's preference of one colour to another is instinctb.People's preference of one colour to another is acquired as they grow up.c.More people happen to love brown because they saw something brown when they were bornd.Colours have little influence on our moods5.Those who committed suicide preferred the bridge over the Thames River near london to others because of _______.a.its shapeb.its structurec.its colourd.its building materials答案:B C A A C(18)If the population of the earth goes on increasing at its present rate, there will eventually not be enough resources left to sustain life on the planet.By the middle of the 21st century,if present trends continue, we will have used up all the oil that drives our cars,for example.Even if scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race,the crowded conditions on earth will make it necessary for lus to look for open space somewhere else. But none of the other planets in our solar system are capable of supporting life at present. One possible solution to the problem, however,has recently been suggested by American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan. Sagan believes that before the earth's resources are compleetely exhausted it will be possible to change the atmophere of Venus and so create a new world almost as large as earth itself. The difficult is that Venus is much hotter than the earth and there is only a tiny amount of water there. Sagan proposes that algae organisms that can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time produce oxygen,should be bred in condition similar to those on Venus.As soon as this has been done, the algae will be placed in small rockets. Spaceship will then fly to Venus and fire the rockets into the atmosphere .In a fairly short time, the alge willbreak down the carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbon. When the algae have done theri work, the atmosphere will become cooler,but befor man can set foot on Venus it will be neccessary for the oxygen to produce rain. The surface of the planet will still be too hot for man to land on it but the rain will eventually fall and in a few years something like earth will be reproduced on Venus.1.Inte long run, the most insoluble problem caused by population growth on earth will probably be the lack of ______.a.foodb.oilc.spaced.resources2.Carl Sagan believes that Venus might be colonized from earth because _____a.it might be possible to change its atmosphereb.its atmosphere is the same as the earth'sc.there is a good supply of water on Venusd.the days on Venus are long enough3.On Venus there is a lot of ________.a.waterb.carbon dioxidec.carbon monoxided.oxygen4.Algae are plants that can____.a.live in very hot temperaturesb.live in very cold temperaturesc.manufacture oxygend.all of the above5. Man can land on Venus only when_______.a.the algae have done their workb.the atmosphere becomes coolerc.thereis oxygend.it rains there答案:C A B D D(19)The United States is on the verge of losing its leading place in the world's technology. So says more than one study in recent years. One of the reasons for this decline is the parallel decline in the number of U.S. scientists and engineers. Since 1976,employment of scientists and engineers is up 85 percent. This trend is expected to continue. However, the trend shows that the number of 22-year-olds--the near term source of future PH.D.s-is declining. Further adding to the problem is the increased competition for these candidates from other fields-law,medicine,business,etc. While the number of U.S. PH.D.s in science and engineering declines,the award of PH.D.s to foreign nationals is increasing rapidly. Our inability to motivate students to pursue science and engineering careers at the graduate level is compounded because of the intense demand industry has for bright Bachelor's and Master's degree holders. Too often, promisingPH.D.candidates, confronting the cost and financial sacrifice of pursuing their education,find the attraction of industry irresistible.1.The U.S.will come to lose its leading place in technology probably because ________.a. the number of PH.D. degree holders is decliningb. the number of scientists and engineers is decreasingc. the number of 22-year-ilds is decliningd. scientists and engineers are not employed2.The field of science and engineering is facing a competition from ________ .a. technologyb. foreign nationalsc. such fields as law, medicine and businessd. postgraduatesrge-scale enterprises now need _______.a. bright graduates and postgraduatesb. new inventionsc. advanced technologyd. engineers4.Many promising postgraduates are unwilling to pursue a PH.D. degree because _________.a. they are not encouraged to be engaged in scienceb. industry does not require PH.D. holdersc. they have financial difficultiesd. they will spend much time and energy completing PH.D.5.PH.D. candidates "find the attraction of industry irresistible" means that _________.a. they find industry is attracting more and more college studentsb. they don't think they can prevent themselves from working for industryc. they cannot resist any attraction from all sidesd. they cannot work for industry any longer答案:B C A D B(20)Newdays,a standard for measuring power has changed.These changes foretell a new standard for measuring power.No longer will a nation's political influence be based solely on the strength of its military forces. Of course, military effectiveness will remain a primary primary measure of power.But political influence is also closely tied to industrial competitiveness. It's often said that without its military the Soviet Union would really be a third-world nation. The new standard of opwer and influence that is evolving now places more emphasis on the ability of a country to compete effectively in the economic markets of the world. America must recognize this new course of events. Our success in shaping world events over the past 40 years has been the direct result of our ability to adapt technology and to take advantage of the capabilities of our people for the purpose of maintaining peace. Our industrial prowess over most of this period was unchallenged. It is ironic that it is just this prowess that has enabled other countries to prosper and in turn to threaten our industrial leadership. The competitiveness of America's industrial base is an issue bigger than the Department of Defense and is going to require the efforts of the major institutional forces in our society-government,industry,and education. That is not to say that the Defense Department will not be a strong force in the process because we will. But we simply cannot be, nor should we be, looked upon by others as the savior of American industry.1. Now a nation's political influence depends on _________.a. the strength of its military forcesb. its ability to compete in industryc. economic marketsd. both a and b2. The Soviet Union was not listed as a third-world nation just because of _________.a. its powerful military forcesb. its vast landc. its industrial competitivenessd. its contributions to world peace3. The author indicates that ______ is threatening American political power.a. other countriesb. the declining U.S. industrial basec. a new standard for measuring powerd. less advanced technology4. America succeeded in shaping world events over past 40 years probably because of ___________.a. its ability to adapt technologyb. its ability to take advantage of the capabilities of its peoplec. its ability to compete in the world marketsd. both a and b5. The purpose of writing this article is __________.a. to draw the readers' attention to a new standard for measuring powerb. to demon s t r a t e A m e r i c a n p o l i t i c a l i n f l u e n c e i n t h e w o r l d b r > c . t o e m p h a s i z e t h a t e f f o r t s m u s t b e m a d e t o s t r e n g t h e n t h e d e c l i n i n g U .

They are a natural water holding system.There are many types of wetlands. Among them, bogs, marshes and swamps are the three n types. The different types of wetlands have different kinds of plants. Only mosses (苔藓) and a few other kinds of plants can grow in bogs. Grassy plants like cattails(香蒲) and reeds (芦苇) are the most common plants in a marsh. A swamp is a forest whose ground is underwater all or most of the time. Unlike bogs or marshes, a swamp is full of trees and bushes. It's not a good idea to go exploring a swamp without a guide. There are hidden pools of water, thick mud, and sometimes big crocodiles looking for their next meal.Hungry crocodiles aren't the only animals that make the wetlands their home. Otters, turtles, frogs, snakes and many other animals do too. The water is home to many kinds of fish and crabs. Birds, including ducks, geese and cranes, use wetlands seasonally during their long migrations.Wetlands are important because they provide habitats for plants and animals. A wetland system can also protect shorelines, make polluted waters clean, prevent floods, and restore underground water supplies.According to WWF, more than half of the world's wetlands have disappeared since the beginning of the 20th century. If this continues, countless plant and animal species will surely die- out. Without wetlands, cities have to spend more money treating water. Don't feel helpless. Try to do your part to protect them right now. Here are some ideas.26. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Wetlands are a man-made water holding system.B. There are three types of wetlands in the world.C. People cannot meet with big crocodiles in wetlands.D. Wetlands can protect shorelines and prevent floods.27. What is the writer probably going to talk about after Paragraph 5?A.What are the different types of wetlands?B. What will happen if wetlands disappear?C. What actions can people take to protect wetlands?D. What other kinds of plants and animals live in wetlands?(B)Some of the greatest problems we face today are the destruction(破坏) of our environment. Brown clouds, polluted water, endangered wild animals... these problems seem so huge.So my family do what we can. We take cloth bags to stores instead of using plastic bags. We walk where we don't have to drive ...But does it do any good? When I am the only one in line at the market with cloth bags, am I doing any good? Does my walking to stores make any real difference to the world?I recently learned something about flamingos(火烈鸟) which like to get together in groups of a thousand or more. Every year, when the time comes for migration, a few of them first take off from the lake. But none of the others seem to notice, so the small group returns. However, the next day they try again. This time a few more fly along with them, but most of them still pay no attention, so they return again. They try for several times. Every time a few more birds join in but, since the thousands of others still take no notice, the great migration plan is once more stopped.Then one day something changes. The same small group of birds once again starts flying and a small number more join in just as before, then more. Finally, they all take flight and the migration really begins. What a spectacular(壮观的) sight it must be -thousands of flamingos taking off into the sky at once!A few can make a difference. Even if you're the one to take the first step, and continue trying, others will someday take notice and together we will solve even our greatest problems.28. Why does the small group of flamingos return to the lake?A. Because they are very tired.B. Because they can't find food in other places.C. Because they don't know where to go.D. Because the others don't fly along with them.29. What’s the writer's purpose of writing this article?A. To show that the writer loves to see the migration of flamingos.B. To introduce how flamingos migrate to readers.C. To tell readers to continue trying and it can make a difference.D. To show that we face lots of serious problems today.30. Where would you most probably read this passage?A. A guidebook.B. A movie poster.C. A personal blog (博客).D. A science magazine.四、词汇(每小题2分,共30分)(A)根据汉语提示、音标或首字母提示写单词,使句意完整31. They finally___________ (卖) their house at a good price.32. I invited Tom to dinner and he happily___________(接受) my invitation.33.

In 1680, the Indians seized the place but only held it for twelve years before the Spanish retook it. The city remained under Spanish rule after Mexico won its independence() in 1821. From then on it was a Mexican city until 1846 when it was taken over by American troops.With a population of 48,953, Santa Fe is now the second largest city in the state. Because of its sunny weather, rich history and surrounding mountains, it is a good place for holiday makers. Besides hunting and skating in the mountains people enjoy shopping in the Indian and Spanish shops, which brings a large income to the city every year.

I’m glad they’ve finally decided to clean them,” the nurse answered. She looked at mum and said, “But aren’t you working late?”Mum just pushed harder, each sweep of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall.I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book.After a long time mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, mum bow ed politely to the nurse and said, “Thank you.”Outside, mum told me: “Dagmar is fine. No fever.” “You saw her, mum?”“Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It’s a fine ho spital. But such floors!

The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such a sorrow that he tried a few times to put end to his life.His family especially his wife did their best to tend and comfort him. By and by he finally regained the courage to live on.On a hot summer afternoon he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstormstarted all at once. He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet. Unfortunately he was struck down to the ground by a lightning. The witnesses thought him dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water below the tree. He felt that he was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes ,he didn’t dare to believe that he saw a plough(犁子)lying near the wall. When Mrs Edwards came running up to him, she shouted their neighbours for help. And he saw her and heard her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.The news of Robert’s regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread in his area. And many doctors came to prove the truth of the news. Most of them said that he gained sight and hearing again obviously from the knock of lightning; none of them could give convincing reasons, however. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of sudden shock in a terrible accident, perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock.47. What did Edwards see first after being struck down by a lightning?A. His wifeB. The large treeC.A ploughD. The lightning itself48. Which of the following is NOT true?A.

That started a debate over the wisdom of spending billions of dollars to keep nearly 2 million people locked up. According to statistics, the United States ends 1999 with 1,983,084 men and women in prisons. That shows an increase nearly 840,000 prisoners during the 1990s and makes the United States the country with the highest prison population in the world. With the cost of housing a prisoner at about $20,000 a year, the cost in 1999 keeping all these prisoners behind bar is about $39 billion.Some experts argue that the money is well spent, saying the cost of keeping prisoners behind back doesn’t seem much in comparison to the cost of crime to society. They also point out that the rise in the prisoner population in the 1990s coincided with (与……相一致) a steady drop in the US crime rates. It is reported that serious crime has decreased for seven years continuously. “There are a noticeable number of people who don’t do crimes because they don’t want to go to prison,” they say.21. There is a heated debate among American experts because _______.A) America has put 2million people in prison.B) the cost for housing a prisoner keeps risingC) billions of dollars has been spent on prisonersD) the prisoner population is the largest in the world22.

The author’s attitude towards the government’s policy is ______.A) negative B) positive C) doubtful D) unknownQuestions 26-30 are based on the following passage.8848. net is a company that focuses heavily on e-commerce. Enter the homepage (主页) of 8848. net, and you can purchase your various goods via the Internet.The sales of 8848. net last month were 12.5 million yuan, equal to the turnover (营业额) of a middle-sized supermarket. The success of indicates that e-commerce is reaching the public, challenging traditional shopping malls. Convenience has become the most important element in any commercial interaction. That's what online shopping offers.What 8848. net offers are 120 000 online goods, including books, software, computers, and electrical appliances. A Wangfujing department store in Beijing doesn't have so many items.What's more, there are about 4 million Internet fans in China. That means 8848. net is running 4 million chain stores. Traditional huge warehouses and personnel no longer seem to be necessary.More products and better services are provided, along with lower prices. It is said that is now preparing to offer more up-to-date consumer goods, such as digital cameras, MP3 devices and IT (Information Technology) household appliances.8848’s product information is the most complete available on China's e-commerce networks.

The author's purpose in writing this passage is to_______.A) advertise B) describe e-commerceC) attract advertisers for D) compare online and traditional shoppingQuestions 31-35 are based on the following passage.Why is it that the most connected we get, the most disconnected we felt? Every advance in communications technology is a setback (挫折) to the intimacy of human interaction. With email and instant, messaging all over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reading anyone. If my mother has a question, I just leave the answer on her phone.As almost every contact between human beings gets automated (自动的), the more people feel they are strangers to each other. You can’t even call a person to get the phone number of another person anywhere. Telephone assistance is almost always fully automated.Buying gasoline at the station? Why say good morning to the attendant when you can pay with your credit card and save yourself the bother of human contact?Making a deposit at the bank?

英语真题练习4(2020长沙中考)Mark Twain once said, "Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. " The famous writer talked about a problem many of us have. The problem is procrastination(拖延症)。
When procrastination becomes a habit, it can make our lives terrible. However, everyone can avoid it by taking a few simple steps today!Make daily “to do” lists.Before your day ends, make a plan for tomorrow. List upcoming tasks in order of importance.You'll begin each new day with a head start, already knowing what needs to be done. As you complete each task, check it off, 56. ______.Always keep your daily schedule(计划)with you. Use it to remind yourself what you need to do next. You'll then have a much better chance of carrying out your plans.Break large tasks up into small ones.If a project looks too big, 57. ______. The task at hand may seem too great. You may feel defeated (失败)before beginning. But every project is doable if it's done in small steps.Begin by breaking up your task into smaller parts. This helps remove the unnecessary fear of having to do a large project all at one time.58. ______.If your workplace is full of distractions(使人分心的事),you'll need to make some changes. You may need to remove your phone or TV from your workplace. If people often stop by for a talk, you may need to move to a different place.Follow the five-minute rule.The hardest part about any task is getting started. That's why so many people avoid their work until the last minute. Doing so usually leads to added stress. One solution to this problem is to schedule a time daily to work on your big project. Work on it for only five minutes. Then decide whether or not to continue. Surprisingly, once you’ve begun, 59. ______.(2019长沙中考B篇)It is believed that Huck Finn is based on(基于)a childhood friend of Mark Twain’s. In fact, Twain was not alone in basing a fictional character(虚构的角色)on a real-life person.Severus Snape / John NettleshipSeverus Snape is a skillful wizard(巫师)teaching magic in Harry Potter. The writer, J.K. Rowling, once said that the character was based on a teacher of hers.The teacher turned out to be John Nettleship, who taught Rowling chemistry. At first, Nettleship felt surprised. “I know I am a strict teacher,” he said. “But I don’t think I am as bad as Snape!” On second thoughts, however, he said that he was so ill-tempered that most of his students avoided making him mad. Also, he used to wear long hair and have an untidy lab. That sounds familiar to Harry Potter fans.Alice / Alice LiddellFamously, Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is based on Alice Liddell.Carroll was close to the Liddell family. One day, ten-year-old Alice asked Carroll to tell her a new story. Carroll began to create his famous tale of Alice and what happened after she fell through the rabbit hole. The little girl liked the story so much that she asked him to write it down. And the rest is history.Dill / Truman CapoteIn To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee based Dill on her childhood friend, Truman Capote. Capote once said, “Lee was my best friend. Have you ever read To Kill a Mockingbird? I’m a character in that story! The story takes place just in the town where we lived!”51.Snape and Nettleship have something in common EXCEPT__________.A.their jobs B.their looks C.their hobbies 52.What does the underlined word “ill-tempered ” mean in Paragraph 3?A.沉着冷静的B.优柔寡断的C.脾气暴躁的53.What made Carroll decide to create Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland?A.Alice Liddell’s requirement.B.His great interest in rabbits.C.His experience of travelling.54.Being a character of To Kill a Mockingbird, Truman Capote felt________.A.proud B.unsatisfied C.surprised55.The text is mainly about ________.A.purposes of writing fictional storiesB.introductions to famous writers’ childhood friendsC.characters of fictional stories from real-life persons。
