Comprehension(30’)Task1Shopping from a catalogue (目录) is much more comfortable than shopping in person. Relaxing at home, catalogue customers can forget the pressures of traditional shopping. For one thing, a catalogue rids of the need for transportation to a department store and the problem of finding a parking space. More importantly, there is no shop assistant to press the catalogue shoppers into buying something they do not want. Best of all, if the customers do not find exactly what they have been looking for in the catalogue, they will not feel that they have wasted their time on a pointless journey; they will have spent perhaps fifteen minutes instead of a few hours, and their feet and legs will not be aching either. It is no wonder, therefore, that many people do their shopping at home.1.

To earlier Americans it meant learning work techniques from relatives and neighbors. In modern times, it generally refers to school training, a development brought up by the rise of an industrial-commercial economy which demanded skills beyond the power of relativesand neighbors to teach. There are three purposes of modern education: first, complete the process of social senses, with particular emphasis upon patriotism (爱国主义); second, to pass along cultures and traditions; third, to prepare students for later job-world competition. The school is closely watched by the community to ensure that their children do not get "wrong education". Also, many basic attitudes are formed outside the school, attitudes which the school has uncertain success in changing.6.

But countries in normal times have better sources of news than rumor. They have radio, television and newspapers, etc. In times of stress and confusion, however, rumor emerges and becomes widespread. At such times the different kinds of news are in competition: the press, television, and radio against the mouth-to-mouth stories.Especially do rumors spread when war requires censorship (审查, 检查) on many important matters. The usual news sources no longer give out enough information. Since the people cannot learn through legitimate(正统的) channels all that they are anxious to learn, they pick up "news" wherever they can, and when this happens , rumor spreads. Rumors are often repeated even by those who do not believe the tales. The reason is that the cleverly designed rumor gives expression to something deep in the hearts of certain people —the fears, suspicions, forbidden hopes, or daydreams which they hesitate to voice directly.11. The best title for this passage would be ____________.A) Rumor and Its Influence B) Rumor and Its SpreadingC) Different Kinds of News Resources D) How to Spread News12.
