7．Anyone who has ever played the game of Tetris （俄罗斯方块） knows the game's surreal ability to spill into real life．After you shut off the game，you still see those Tetris blocks falling in your mind．You're grocery shopping and find yourself thinking about rearranging items on grocery shelves．Your mind continues to play the game，even when you're physically not．
Robert Stickgold，a Harvard professor，noticed something similar after a day hiking a mountain．That night，he dreamt he was still going through the motions of mountain hiking．Curious about this，he tried something：he got a group of college students of various skill levels to play Tetris and let them sleep in the Harvard sleep lab．
Over 60% of the students，including those who suffered from amnesia （键忘症），reported dreams of images of Tetris pieces falling，rotating （旋转），and fitting together．Interestingly，half the Tetris expert students reported such Tetris dreams，while 75% of the beginners did．
A study found that playing Tetris can grow your brain and make it more efficient．Adolescent girls played the game for an average of 1.5hours a week over three months．The cerebral cortex （大脑皮层） of the girls grew thicker，while brain activity in other areas decreased．Richard Haier，who had found that there was a"Tetris learning effect"，in which the brain consumed less energy as mastery of the game rose，concluded，"The brain is learning which areas not to use．"
Haier's study showed that as the girls practiced playing the game，nerve cells made connections，communicating through synapses （a synapse is a connection between two nerve cells）．When you learn something，you change those connections．Every time you reactivate（激活） a circuit，synaptic efficiency increases，and connections become more durable and easier to reactivate．Stickgold says sleep plays a role in this memory process．
So to sum up，whenever you do specific tasks over and over again，they take up less of your brain power over time．And that's pretty amazing．

25．What does the underlined part'surreal ability'in the first paragraph mean？D
A．The game can help people arrange things in life．
B．The game can be applied to many aspects of life．
C．There are great similarities between the game and things in life．
D．The mind continues to play the game when we are doing other things．
26．What can we learn from Stickgold's study？A
A．More than half of the students dreamed of images of Tetris．
B．Students having bad memories didn't dream of the game．
C．The Tetris expert students were more likely to dream of the game than the beginners．
D．More than half of the Tetris expert students didn't dream of the game．
27．Playing Tetris for a long time can helpB．
①grow one's brain
②one's brain function efficiently
③arrange things tidily in life
④improve the adaptability of one's brain
A．①②③B．①②④
C．②③④D．①③④
28．The purpose of the passage is toD．
A．encourage people to play Tetris
B．warn people to focus while doing things
C．warn people not to play games before sleep
D．tell people they will improve at something if they keep doing it．

11．Any exercise is good exercise，but when it comes to losing weight，it's hard to beat running．After all，running is one of the most efficient ways to burn calories and get fit without having to restrict your diet．（31）F If you're not a runner yet but interested in losing weight，here are four reasons running can be the best exercise for weight loss．
（32）BWhen comparing running with walking the same distance，studies find that running will lead to greater weight loss，most likely because your resting energy expenditure stays elevated（高的） after you run．In a long-term comparison study of runners and walkers，calories burned through running led to 90% more weight loss than calories burned through walking．
Running is time-efficient．Even if the myth that running a mile and walking a mile burn the same number of calories were true，running is a considerably faster way to burn those calories．（33）G
Running is convenient．Though many of us have accumulated a vast arsenal（武器，装备） of GPS gadgets and tech tees over the years，little is actually required to go running．You can do it alone．You can do it almost anywhere．（34）EFor this reason alone，running is the best workout for weight loss because it's cheap and accessible，and there are fewer barriers to maintaining a routine，even while traveling．
Twowords：runner's high．（35）DFortunately，studies support what many runners have experienced on an anecdotal level-running can actually get you high．Scientists have found links between moderate to intense exercise and morphine-like brain chemicals，which explains the occasional flood of thrill that rushes over you during a hard run．That happy sensation you had after your last race makes you want to go for another run，right？

A．Cultivate the good habit of running．
B．Running works even when you're at rest．
C．You will never stick to a habit if you don't like it．
D．The first rule of exercising for weight loss is that if you don't enjoy it，you won't stick with it．
E．You don't need any equipment beyond a pair of running shoes．
F．If you're already a runner，keep on．
G．Most people can run two or three times as far as they can walk in a given amount of time．

（29）B
If you approach the coming move as an exciting adventure for the entire family，it will help to calm your children's fears．If possible，show them the new house and let them spend some time exploring it．Help them imagine where their furniture and toys will go．Show them the yard and help them imagine all the fun they will have there．Talk about all the fun things the family will do there．
Let them help．
If you give your children an active role in the move，they are much more likely to accept it and even grow excited about it．Let them pack some of their own things．（30）EIf there are old toys you don't plan to take，let the kids help decide which of them should be taken or given away．

17．No one disagrees with the economic necessity of geographically extending a product．Not only does it increase turnover（营业额）but also it makes economies of scale possible，thus giving companies a competitive advantage in local markets．But how far do we push the global idea？Should we globalize all aspects of a brand：its name，its creative concept and the product itself？
Global branding suggests the wish to extend all three aspects throughout the world．Rarely，though，is it realistic and profitable to extend all of them．The Mars brand，for instance，is not absolutely global．The Mars chocolate bar is sold as an all-round nutritious snack in the UK and as an energizer in other European regions（different concepts and positioning for the same physical product）．Nestle adapts the taste of its worldwide brands to local Market．The Nescafe（配方）vary worldwide．
Nowhere is globalization more desirable than in sectors that centre on mobility，such as car rental and airline industries．When a brand in these sectors is seen as being international，its authority and expertise are automatically accepted．Companies such as Hertz，Avis and Europcar globalized their advertising campaigns by portraying typical images such as a busy executive（主管）．An Italian businessman will identify more with a hurried businessman who is not Italian than with an Italian who is not a businessman．
The main aim of such global marketing campaigns is not to increase sales but to maximize profitability．For example，instead of bringing out different TV advertisements for each country，a firm can use a single film for one region．The McCann-Erikson agency is proud of the fact that it has saved Coca-Cola﹩90 million over the past 20 years by producing commercials with global appeal．
Social and cultural developments provide a favorable platform for globalization．In an effort to stand out from others，young people seek new models on which to build their identity．They are then open to influence from abroad．When drinking Coca-Cola，we all drink the American myth-fresh，young，dynamic，powerful，all-American images．Nike tells young people everywhere to surpass themselves，to transcend the confines of their race and culture．
Globalization is also made easier when a brand is built around a cultural stereotype（固有印象）．AEG，BOSCH，Siemens，Mercedes and BMW rest secure on the"Made in Germany"model，which opens up the global market since the stereotype goes beyond national boundaries．
People everywhere associate the stereotype with outstanding performance．Barilla is another example：it is built on the classic Italian image of tomato sauce，pasta，a carefree way of life，songs and sun．IKEA furniture epitomizes（成为的典范）Sweden．Lancome expresses the elegance of the French woman．
Certain organization factors ease the shift to a global brand．American firms，for instance，are naturally geared towards globalization because marketing in their huge domestic market already treats America as a single entity despite its social and cultural differences．
Another organizational factor concerns the way US companies first expanded in Europe．Many set up European headquarters，usually based in Brussels or London．From early on Europe was considered a single and homogeneous（同性质的）area．
Finally，a single center of production is also a great advantage．Procter & Gamble centralizes European production of detergents（洗涤剂）in its Amiens factory．This maximizes product standardization and enables innovations to spread to all countries at once，thus giving the company a competitive advantage over local rivals and ensuring the continued growth and success of the brand．

65．By mentioning the cases of Mars and Nestle，the author suggests thatB
A．extending products worldwide is of great importance to every company
B．a global brand may not be really global in every aspect
C．an effective marketing strategy is more important than a global brand
D．the Mars and Nestle brands compete fiercely against each other in the global market

A．Car rental and airline industries need globalization the most
B．The aim of advertising campaigns conducted for a specific region is mainly to maximize profitability
C．The young are influenced greatly by globalization
D．Germany may be better adapted to globalization
67．According to the passage，which of the following may promote global branding？C
A．A company's investment in advertising campaigns．
B．The innovative concepts of the products
C．Social and cultural developments as well as cultural stereotypes
D．The cooperation among companies all over the world
68．The underlined phrase"geared towards"in Paragraph 8 is closest in meaning to"A"．
A．suitable for B．good at C．designed for D．adopted as
69．What's the author's attitude towards global branding？A
A．Favorable B．Worried C．Cautious D．Doubtful
70．What does the passage mainly discuss？B
A．The world-famous companies and their global marketing campaigns
B．Global branding and is contributive factors
C．Great changes in the global market
D．Globalization and its possible influence on the global market．
