阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
In her 17 years working at Rollins College in the US, there have often been students who have appeared in Anca Voicu’s office and confessed (坦白) they have no idea what to do with their lives once they graduate. That’s why the economics professor decided to add career planning to her class, even starting before young people step onto a college campus.
Throughout this semester, Voicu’s real-world economics class has visited about 100 Winter Park High students. It has asked them to think about everything from picking the right major (专业) to the job market and the cost of higher education.
“They have to balance what they need to do and what they love to do,” said Rollins freshman Nicholas Kay, 18.
During their final class of the semester, Kay and his classmates reflected on what it was like helping younger versions (版本) of themselves explore the future. Voicu expects to continue the class so she can collect data (数据) to see if working together is making a difference.
“These kids were only eight months younger than me,” said Rollins fresh man Blake Buell, an 18-year-old business management major.
The high school students also went on a tour of the Winter Park college, seeing what life was like on campus, how admissions worked and what a dorm room looked like. They asked Rollins students que stions including “How does the food taste?” and “What are classes like?” Winter Park sophomore (二年级学生) Sebastian Zendejas, 15, said it was eye-opening and helped him to understand how college could be.
“I don’t want to have a bunch of (大量的) debt when I’m leaving college,” said Zendejas, who plans to study business.
The lessons that showed students’ j ob availability were something many had never thought about before, said Tim Arnold, one of the four Winter Park High teachers involved in the project. The students also took personality tests to see where they might fit best.
Looking at the data and realizing how many good jobs there were in the science, technology, engineering and math fields made some of Voicu’s students feel better. “I should really stick with this,” said computer science first-year student Brandi Moore, 18.

2. Which of the following did Anca Voicu’s class involve?

c. Giving high school students a taste of life on campus.
d. Showing data about job availability.
A. ab
B. cd
C. abc
D. acd
3. We can infer from Brandi Moore’s words that _____ .
A. she felt the personality test worked well
B. she would love to retake Voicu’s class
C. she is now more confident in her major
D. she had had serious doubts about her major
4. This article was written mainly to _____.

B. the course benefits high school students more than college students
C. career planning requires the help of teachers and college students
D. it’s important to make a well-balanced choice when making career plans
B
Dear daughters,
Most parents tell their children, “You can be anything you want when you grow up.” I feel
the same and I say this often. But I also want you to understand that realizing your dreams comes
from hard work, some good luck and good timing.
Girls, here are some words of wisdom as you make your way in the world, from an entrepreneur
(企业家) and from your mama.
1. Be open-minded to changing your path (even several times) along the way In high school,
I wanted to be a politician. I left my hometown and went off to college in Washington, DC. There,
I discovered that I loved to support women. It taught me that I’m creative, a strong leader and
great at marketing. As a result, I moved on to be the head of a national healthcare nonprofit.
Becoming a mother while in that job opened my mind to launching a breast pump bag (储
奶袋) business. Now I run a highly successful company that I started up on my own.
Figure out what you are good at and what you are passionate about. Keep an open mind; the
initial (最初的) path you choose may lead you into other areas.
Don’t waste your money or time, but constantly change what you are doing professionally
based on what you are learning about yourself.
2. Failure is critical to your success
I won’t tell you to feel good about failure. Failure can be heartbreaking. But I will tell you that ever y failure I’ve had along the way has absolutely made me better.
Failing the big math exam in high school and going to summer school was embarrassing. I eventually passed, and I’ve never failed an exam again. I learned from that experience to ask for help. Now, I ask for help in business all the time.
Being passed over for a significant job opportunity that I was more than qualified for because of unfair assumptions (being too young for the role) hurt me.I had a three-month pity party. And then I went out an d got a big job at a national organization at age 27. It’s okay to get angry! Take that and turn it into positive action.
I’m proud to be a role model to you as a mom and an entrepreneur. I hope I inspire you to believe that you can be anything you want and you can have everything on your list. It will be my pleasure to watch your lives unfold before my eyes.
Love,
Your mom

Advertisements can be seen everywhere in this modern world. It is estimated that Americans view an average of 1,500 ads every day! With the rapid economic growth in China, you can expect a number doubling that in the near future.
If you think you know all the ad tricks in the book and will never be talked into buying something you don't really want, wait till you finish reading this article.
While "hard-sell" ads are easy to detect — such as those with cheerful Olympic champions or film stars holding products and feeding you reasons why they are bargains —we are less clever when faced with "soft-sell" methods. The most common technique of this kind is to make customers think there is an immediate need to buy the product. So next time you see words like hurry, act now, last chance, now or never etc., think twice. Most of the chances aren't as short lived as they seem to be.
Is that the only type of soft-sell advertising? Of course not. Soft-sell advertising includes give away samples and concert sponsorships. Different types of advertising work in different places and for different products. "There's never a one-size-fits-all technique. It has to be tailor made for each situation," says Gillian Greene, Creative Director of Cheesy Bee, an advertising company in London.
Other than speaking directly to customers, some ads are also made for investors and shop owners. Why? Because when the investors see the expensive, well-made ads, they believe that the company is running a good business. Then they're happy to invest more money in it, even though the ad itself does not appeal to anyone in the street. In the same way, shop owners prefer to stock well-advertised goods because they know that customers are more likely to buy them.
Therefore, advertising can help sell goods even when it's not directed at the customers.
Ads work in every stage of a business, and that perhaps is the best ad for the industry itself.
11. What is this article mainly about?
A. It is hard not to be influenced by ads.
B. It is easy to run a good advertising business.
C. Advertising helps make money.
D. Advertising helps industries grow.
12. The "soft-sell " technique mentioned in Paragraph 3 refers to _____.
A. Products that are real bargains
B. Short-lived ads
C. Misleading words that appear ads
D. Images of Olympic champions
13. Which of the following is true according to the article?
A. “Sofy-selling”methods are easy to detect.
B. Not all ads are speaking directly to customers.
C. Tailors are needed in making ads.
D. Customers should always think of buying goods in a hurry.
14. What does“it”in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. the advertisement
B. the customer
C. the company
D. the “soft-sell”method
15. What can you conclude from the article
A. If we are careful, we can avoid ads
B. Expensive ads are more attractive.
C. Customers will buy goods that are well-advertised
D. Ads are powerful
