阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Taste is such a subjective matter that we don't usually conduct preference tests for food. The most you can say about anyone's preference, is that it's one person's opinion. But because the two big cola companies-Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola are marketed so aggressively, we have wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in brand loyalty. We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi fans: find your brand in a blind tasting.

We invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi, Diet (低糖的) Coke, or Diet Pepsi. These were people who thought they' d have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand.

We eventually located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers. Then we fed them four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other. We asked them to tell us whether each sample was Coke or Pepsi, then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants' choices with what mere guess-work could have accomplished.

Getting all four samples right was a tough test, but not too tough, we thought, for people who believed they could recognize their brand. In the end, only 7 out of 19 regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials. The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse-only 7 of 27 identified all four samples correctly.

While both groups did better than chance would predict, nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times. Two people got all four samples wrong. Overall, half of the participants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so tiredness, or taste burnout, was not a factor. Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.

1.It is implied in the first paragraph that ________.

A. the purpose of taste tests is to promote the sale of colas

B. the improvement of quality is the chief concern of the two cola companies

C. the competition between the two colas is very strong

D. blind tasting is necessary for identifying fans

2.According to the passage the preference test was conducted in order to _______.

A. find out the role taste preference plays in a person's drinking

B. reveal which cola is more to the liking of the drinkers

C. show that a person' s opinion about taste is mere guess-work

D. compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks

3.The word 'burnout" underlined in Paragraph Five, refers to the state of ________.

A. being seriously burnt in the skin

B. being unable to burn for lack of fuel

C. being badly damaged by fire

D. being unable to function because of excessive use

4.The author's purpose in writing this passage is to ________.

A. show that taste preference is highly subjective

B. argue that taste testing is an important marketing strategy

C. emphasize that taste and price are closely related to each other

D. recommend that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colas

Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table, reading his book. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could. One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I try to read the book just like you, but I don’t understand it, and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?”

The grandpa quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, “Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.” The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandpa laughed and said, “You’ll have to move a little faster next time,” and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.

This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned. Out of breath, he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, so he went to get a bucket instead. The grandpa said, “I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough.”

The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again. Out of breath, he said, “Grandpa, it’s useless !” “So, you think it is useless?” the grandpa said, “Look at the basket.”

The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean. “Grandson, that’s what happens when you read the book. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you’ll be changed, inside and out.”

1. What puzzled the grandson most was ________.

A. whether it was useful to read books

B. why he forgot what he read soon

C. what kind of book he could understand

D. how he could read books like his grandpa

2.Why did Grandpa ask his grandson to fetch a basket of water?

A. To train him to run faster.

B. To clean the dirty basket in the river.

C. To punish him for not reading carefully.

D. To get him to realize the use of reading books.

3.What lesson can we learn from the story?

A. The old are always wiser than the young.

B. It is foolish to carry water with a basket.

C. Reading books can change a person gradually.

请认真阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A PRANK (恶作剧) is naughty behavior that is at most scolded if it gets too much. This is three Chinese students studying in California in the US described what they had done.

Zhai Yunyao, Yang Yuhan and Zhang Xinlei, all 19, called it a “prank” when they took their classmate Liu Yiran to a park where “Liu was … beaten, spat (吐痰) on, with cigarettes and forced to eat her own hair during a five-hour attack”, the Associated Press.

However, their “prank” in March 2015 was a crime in the US. The punishment was years in prison for kidnapping and assault (攻击). Zhai was to 13 years in prison, Yang to 10 years and Zhang to six years on Feb 17. They will be sent back to China serving their sentences, reported The Los Angeles Times.

The bullying (欺凌) case has caused quite a discussion in China where school bullying is not 42 but is seldom considered a crime. According to a survey done by China Youth Daily in July last year, 73.3 percent of the 1,002 said they had experienced or seen bullying cases at school.

However, offenders (冒犯者) receive proper punishment. In most of the cases, offenders only get criticism from schools. Offenders under 14 have no criminal . Those aged between 14 and 16 usually get a light punishment only when they serious crimes like murder and rape (强奸), according to China’s laws.

“The articles about protecting minors (未成年人) have started to get punishing school bullies,” commented an article in Bandao Metropolis Daily. “Some bullies even use the laws as a shield (挡箭牌) for their violent .”

In , the US is quite tough on bullying.

A(n) of 46 of the 50 US states now have their own anti-bullying laws, according to the US Department of Education. Bullying, according to those anti-bullying laws, not only direct physical contact like hitting, but also verbal assaults like name-calling.

Also, judges in the US have the right to minor offenders as adults if the cases are serious or if they have criminal records.

China could learn from the US, its legal system to stop bullying, some people have suggested. Huang Zhiyuan, a procurator (检察官) at the Henan People’s Procuratorate, advocated lowering the criminal age in Procuratorate Daily. Li Fangchao of China Daily advised China to make a anti-bullying law.

A more profound (深刻的) message the case showed to us is that “the common tolerant toward bullying should be changed”, commented Jiaxing Daily. “When teenagers do something wrong, we should tolerate and help them when necessary. But all of these have a limit.”
