You're in a department store and you see a couple of attractive young women looking at a sweater. You listen to their conversation:

"I can't believe it-----a Lorenzo Bertolla! They are almost impossible to find. Isn't it beautiful? And it's a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome."

They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater. It's nice and the price is right. You've never heard of Lorenzo Bertolla, but those girls looked really stylish. They must know. So, you buy it. You never realize that those young women are employees of an advertising agency. They are actually paid to go from store to store, talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla clothes.

Every day we notice what people are wearing, driving and eating. If the person looks cool, the product seems cool, too. This is the secret of undercover marketing. Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it.

Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that don't pay attention to traditional advertising. This is particularly true of the MTV generation ---- consumers between the age of 18 and 34. It is a golden group. They have a lot of money to spend, but they don't trust ads.

So advertising agencies hire young actors to "perform" in bars and other places where young adults go. Some people might call this practice deceptive (骗人的), but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative. "Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is decreasing." However, one might ask what exactly is "real" of young women pretending to be enthusiastic about a sweater? Advertising executives would say it's no less real than an ad. The difference is that you know an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something. You don' t know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.

1.The two attractive young women were talking so that they could _____.

A. get the sweater at a lower price

B. decide on buying the sweater

C. be admired by other shoppers

D. be heard by people around

2. Lorenzo Bertolla is _____.

A. a very popular male singer

B. an advertising agency

C. the brand name of a sweater

D. a clothing company in Rome

3.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A. Traditional advertising will soon disappear in the market.

B. The MTV generation tend to be more easily influenced by ads.

C. Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government.

D. Traditional advertising is becoming less effective because it's too direct.

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. Two Attractive Shoppers

B. Lorenzo Bertolla Sweaters

C. Undercover Marketing

D. Ways of Advertising

A Chinese couple tried to name their baby “@”, saying the character best represents their love for the child, according to an official trying to standardize the national language. The unusual name stands out especially in Mandarin, which has no alphabet (字母表) and instead uses tens of thousands of multi?stroke (多笔画的) characters to represent words. “The whole world uses it to write emails, and translated into Chinese it means ‘love him’,” the father explained, according to the deputy chief of the State Language Commission Li Yuming.

While the @ symbol is familiar to Chinese email users, they often use the English word “at” to sound it out. With a drawn?out “t”, this sounds something like “ai ta”, or “love him”, to Mandarin speakers. Li says the name is an extreme example of people’s increasingly adventurous approach to Mandarin, as commercialization and the Internet break down conventions (习俗).

Another couple tried to give their child a name that in English sounds like “King Osrina”.

Li did not say if officials accepted the “@” name. But earlier this year the government announced a ban on names using Arabic numerals (阿拉伯数字) and foreign languages. Sixty million Chinese face the problem that their names use ancient characters so uncommon that computers cannot recognize them and even fluent speakers are left scratching their heads, said Li, according to a report on the government website. One of them is the former Premier Zhu Rongji, whose name has a rare “rong” character that gives newspaper editors headaches.

1.Why did the Chinese couple try to name their baby “@”?

A. Because they wanted their baby to have a special name.

B. Because they wanted their baby to have an international name.

C. Because the @ symbol is familiar to email users all over the world.

D. Because the @ symbol sounds something like “ai ta”, which means “love him” in Chinese.

2.It can be inferred that ___________.

A. Li Yuming is in favor of the baby’s name

B. many Chinese people use Arabic numerals in their names

C. a majority of the Chinese people are having longer names

D. there is little possibility for the “@” name to be officially accepted

3.The underlined part in the passage probably means___________.

A. even native speakers find it hard to accept these strange names

B. even native speakers can’t find these characters in their computers

C. even those who are expert at Chinese can’t recognize these characters

D. even those who are expert at Chinese find it hard to accept these names

4.The former Premier Zhu Rongji is mentioned in the passage because ________.

A. people often mispronounce his name

B. there is an uncommon character in his name

C. he often made newspaper editors annoyed during his term in office

D. he once stressed the importance of standardizing Chinese characters

5.The passage is mainly about ___________.

A. how Chinese parents name their babies

B. the importance of standardizing Chinese characters

C. a ban on names using Arabic numerals and foreign languages

D. the problems caused by uncommon characters used in Chinese names

Success is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity(逆境). But it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage to try.

J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series, began writing at age 6. In her biography(传记), she remembers with great fondness when her good friend-Sean became the first person to encourage her and help her build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer.

“He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition(志向) to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to(注定)be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”

Though there were many difficulties, Rowling continued her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasn’t until l990 that she first came up with the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls(回忆), it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that “the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into my head. To my great disappointment, I didn’t have a pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details came up in my brain, and this thin, black-haired, bespectacled(戴眼镜的)boy who didn't know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”

That same year, her mother died after a ten-year fight with serious diseases, which deeply affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards.

During this time, Rowling was diagnosed with depression(诊断患有抑郁症). Unemployed, she finished her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After being refused by l2 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house.

Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, J. K. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with her friend’s encouragement as well as her ambition to write.

1. Who believed J. K. Rowling was to be a good writer?

C.Her daughter. D.Her husband.

2.Rowling first came up with the idea about Harry Potter________.

3.She felt disappointed on the train because_________.

A.her train was delayed for four hours

B.she didn’t have a pen with her

C.her mind suddenly went blank

D.no one would offer her help

4.It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 and 6 that Rowling is_________.

A.open-minded B.warm-hearted

C.good-natured D.strong-willed

5.The text mainly tells us_________.

A.adversity makes a good novelist

B.the courage to try is a special ability

C.you can have a wonderful idea everywhere
