阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出最佳选项。

A
Shopping is not as simple as you may think!There are all sorts of tricks at play each time we reach out for that particular brand(品牌) of product on the shelf.
Colouring,for example,varies according to what the producers are trying to sell.Health foods are packaged (包装) in greens,yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colours.Ice cream packets are often blue and expensive goods,like chocolates,are gold or silver.
When some kind of pain killer was brought out recently,researchers found that the colours turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective.Eventually,it came on the market in a dark blue and white package—blue because we think of it as safe,and white as calm.
The size of a product can attract a shopper.But quite often a bottle doesn’t contain as much as it appears to.It is believed that the better-known companies spend,on average,70 per cent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging!
The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product.The founder of Pears soap,who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to promote (推销) their goods,came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap,but it takes a genius(天才) to sell it.”
46.Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text?
A.The cost of its package.
B.The price of the product.
C.The colour of its package.
D.The brand name of the product.
解析：该文重点描述了产品包装的颜色对购买者的阻碍，这也是促使消费者购买的手段之一。

答案：C
47.The underlined part “the colours turned the customers off”(in Para.3 ) means that the colours_____________.
A.attracted the customers strongly
B.had weak effects on the customers
C.tricked the customers into shopping
D.caused the customers to lose interest
解析：依照“because they made the product look weak and ineffective.”这句话的说明，我们能够判定，既然产品看起来看起来是无效的，因此消费者因此没有购买的爱好。

答案：D
48.Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales?
A.The way to promote goods.
B.The discovery of a genius.
C.The team to produce a good product.
D.The brand name used by successful producers.解析：依照文章最后一段所举的一个实例能够看出：光有好的产品还不够，重要的是对产品
的大力推销，这才是产品畅销的关键。

答案：A
49.According to the passage,which of the following statement is true?
A.Making soap is so easy that any fool in the world can make it.
B. B.Greens,yellows or silver are considered to be healthy colours.
C. C.25 years ago,the founder of Pears soap was a pretty girl herself.
D.The size of a product can have an effect on the shoppers.
解析：参见文章中“The size of a product can attract a shopper.”一句话。

答案：D
50.Which of the following would be the best title for this text?
A.Choice of Good Products
B.Disadvantages of Products
C.Effect of Packaging on Shopping
D.Brand Names and Shopping Tricks
解析：该题为主旨大意题。

答案：C
B
The Nobel Prizes
The prizes are awarded by the Nobel Foundation（基金会）for outstanding achievements or contributions in these areas:chemistry,physics,medicine or physiology,literature and peace.Each prize has three parts.The first part is a gold medal.Second,a winner of a Nobel Prize is given a diploma（证书）saying that he has been awarded the prize.The third part of the prize is a large amount of money.Often a prize is awarded to just one person,but not always.Sometimes a prize is shared,maybe by two or more people who have worked together to reach a goal.Since the Nobel Prizes are international prizes,scientists,inventors,writers,and diplomats（外交官）from all countries may receive a prize.Sometimes,two people from countries with different political views may even share a prize.An example of this is the 1973 Peace Prize,which was awarded to Henry Kissinger of the United States and to Le Due Tho of North Vietnam for the Vietnam（越南）peace negotiations （谈判）.It is also sometimes true that a prize is not given.If there is no outstanding achievement in one of these areas,no prize is given in that area.In 1972,for example,no Nobel Peace Prize was given.Someone must decide whether or not to give an award.The process of nominating（提名，举荐）and choosing Nobel Prize winners has two parts.First,nominations,or recommendations of people who might deserve（应得）a Nobel Prize,are made.The nominations in physics and chemistry are made by the Royal Academy（研究员，学会）of Science in Stockholm.The nominations in medicine or physiology are made by the Caroline Medical Institute,which is also in Stockholm.The Swedish Academy,along with the French and Spanish Academies,makes nominations in literature.The peace prize nominations are made by a committee of the Norwegian government.Many nominations are made in each area.Nominations from these groups begin the process of choosing the Nobel Prize winners.
The second part of the process of choosing Nobel Prize winners is to decide which of the nominees deserves the award in each area.This decision is made by the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm.The Foundation may decide not to give a prize at all in any area.
51.A Nobel Prize is given in the form of _____________.
A.a large quantity of money
B.a diploma
C.a gold medal
D.all of the above

解析：本题为推理判定题。

依照文章的细节说明作出推理判定。

通过阅读文章能够明白，诺贝尔奖的提名与选择都专门严格、认真。

因此，B项为正确答案。

答案：B
C
Li Lu’ou thought he did the right thing by calling 110 when he saw his two classmates in trouble on the corner of a dark street.
Li and his classmates from No.2 Middle School affiliated to Beijing Normal University spent this year’s Valentine’s Day(情人节) selling roses on the street.As night approached,they cycled back with over 200 yuan in their pockets.
Suddenly,a gang of robbers jumped out at them.The five robbers were tall and strong,so Li ran away to call the police.He thought it would be the most practical thing to do and he was right.His classmates returned safe and sound.
So,what would you have done in Li’s situation?Would you have got off your bike and fought the robbers to rescue your friends?
A new Beijing student code(守则) does not encourage you to risk(冒险) your life to help them.
The new code was introduced to more than 1.7 million primary and middle school students in the city at the start of the new term.
It has cut words which might encourage youngsters to risk their lives for others in dangerous situations.Gone are the old calls,which had been in place since 1987,for students to “fight criminals(犯罪分子) courageously”and “sacrifice themselves to save others”.C hildren’s heroic acts usually left them injured or even dead because they failed to fully foresee the dangers of their actions.
A well-known example was Lai Ning,who was listed among the “top 10 model young pioneers”in 1989 after he lost his life trying to put out a fire at the age of 14.
The deaths connected to teenagers “heroic acts”started a national wide debate(争辩) about the protection of youngsters.
Wei Lusheng,a parent in Beijing,said schools must first teach children how to protect themselves,before learning from heroes.
But educators thought the spirit of courage should not be thrown away in the new student code.
“Getting rid of the ‘fight criminals courageously’ words do not mean we deny the spirit of ‘fearlessness’ and ‘readiness’ to help others”,said Li Jing,an official in Beijing.“But,we should be more rational(理智的) about the spirit of sacrifice.”
Li Lu’ou agreed.“Cherishing life is no reason to be a coward,”he said.“But you need make sure you are able to offer help.For example,it would cause more trouble if I jumped into water to rescue someone drowning,but didn’t know how to swim.In that situation it’s better to call the police or an adult.”
56.Which is true about Li and his classmates?
A.They bought roses for each other on Valentine’s Day.
B.They called 110 immediately they were held up by a gang of robbers.
C.Li risked his life for his classmates in the dangerous situation.
D.Instead of fighting the robbers Li thought it right for him to call the police.
解析：本题为细节判定题。

文章第一段差不多交代清晰：Li Lu’ou thought he did the right thing by calling 110 when he saw his two classmates in trouble on the corner of a dark street.
其中calling 110为关键词。

答案：D
57.The new student code was introduced in Beijing because_____________.
A.students are facing more danger than they used to
B.the old student code didn’t include the spirit of courage
C.the old one didn’t tell students how to protect themselves while helping others in trouble
D.the old student code encouraged students to sacrifice themselves to save others
解析：文章中“A new Beijing student code(守则) does not encourage you to risk(冒险) your life to help them.”一句为关键句。

旧的《学生守则》鼓舞学生勇敢地同犯罪分子作斗争，往往使自我爱护能力较差的学生受到损害。

新的守则改正了旧守则中的不合理的部分。

答案：C
58.Which can be inferred about Lai Ning?
A.He was one of the top 10 model young pioneers in 1987.
B.If it weren’t him,the forest fire would not have been put out.
C.According to the new code,he shouldn’t have risked his life to put out the fire.
D.His deeds did not agree with what the old student code encouraged.
解析：本题为推理判定题。

赖宁牺牲于扑灭山火的行动，并被评为全国十佳少先队员。

当时的旧的《学生守则》大力提倡这种英雄行为。

然而，新的守则不提倡这种牺牲以自己的生命为代价的行为，因此能够推断出在新的《学生守则》下，赖宁可不能丧失生命。

答案：C
59.The underlined word “deny”in the second last paragraph means “_____________”.
A.agree with
B.disagree with
C.connect with
D.object to
解析：本题为词义推测题。

deny的意思是“否定，拒绝相信”,和B项意思相近。

答案：B
60.According to the new student code which of the following statements is right?
A.There will be more criminals after the new student code was introduced.
B.The police in Beijing will have a more difficult time in keeping order.
C.The spirit of “fearlessness”and “readiness”to help others will be thrown away.
D.Teenagers are advised to make sure they are able to offer help when they want to.解析：本
题为推理判定题。

文章最后一段“But you need make sure you are able to offer help.”一句，提供了解题思路。

Nowadays cellphones are popular in big cities it China.It seems that they are popular at school,too.And in some schools most of the students have cell phones with them everywhere.One day,
参考答案：
Nowadays cellphones are popular in big cities in China.It seems that they are popular in school,too.And in some schools most of the students take their cell phones with them everywhere.One day,Teacher Wu was giving a maths lesson when the ringing of a cell phone interrupted him.He got so angry that he shouted at the boy whose phone was still ringing.“Don’t you see the sign that cell phones are forbidden in school?How dare you use your cell phone here in the classroom?”he asked the boy,pointing at the sign above the blackboard.The boy looked as if he hadn’t realized what had happened to him.He must have forgotten to turn the phone off before class.However the boy wasn’t able to escape from the school punishment.I think students shouldn’t use cell phones in school.The ringing of the phone in class not only interrupts teachers,but also spoils the class.。
