When you’re returning to Australia, be careful that you don’t bring in pests and diseases. Some items you might bring back from overseas can be pests and diseases that Australia doesn’t have. When you return, declare(申报)all food, meat, fruits, plants, seeds, wooden souvenirs, animal or plant materials.
Australia has strict quarantine(检疫)laws and tough on-the-spot fines. Every piece of luggage is now screened or X-rayed. If you fail to declare any quarantine items, or if you make a false declaration, you will get caught. In addition to on-the-spot fines, you could be accused and fined more than $60, 000 and you may risk 10 years in prison. All international mail is also screened.
Some products may require treatment to make them safe. Items that are restricted because of the risk of pests and diseases will be seized and destroyed by the Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service(AQIS).
In many cases, the goods you declare will be returned to you after inspection. However, any item that presents a quarantine risk will be withheld(扣留). You will be given a range of options for each item depending on the quarantine risk:
Treating the item to make it safe;
Holding the item until an import permit is presented*; ·
Re-exporting the item；
Destroying the item.
Those treatments with the sign “*” are subject to fees.
Further information:
For more detailed information about bringing in food, animals, plants, animal or plant materials, call the AQIS at 1800-020-504.
小题1:Which of the following don’t you need to declare when returning to Australia?

A．Tea.

B．Wooden combs.

C．Some bread.

D．A pair of glasses.

小题2:If you make a false declaration, you would _______ .

A．be fined a lot of money

小题3:Where can we most probably find this passage?

D．In a hospital.

小题4:We can learn from the passage that _______ .

A．you can keep the item before an import permit is presented

B．all products must be treated according to the AQIS

C．not all treatments for your declared items are free

D．travelers can sell their declared items

小题1:D
小题2:A
小题3:B
小题4:C

小题1:细节理解题。第一段最后说明了要申报的内容：food, meat, fruits, plants, seeds, wooden souvenirs, animal or plant materials。A、B、C三项包含在其中，D项不在其中。
小题2:细节理解题。从第二段的“In addition to on-the-spot fines, . . . in prison. ”知A项正确。
小题3:推理判断题。文章讲的是返回澳大利亚时应该注意的事项，应该向海关申报所携带的物品。故该文章可能出现在旅游指南上。
小题4:推理判断题。根据Further information的前一句“Those treatments with the sign ‘*’ are subject to fees. ”可以推断不是所有的措施都是免费的。故选C

San Francisco's Chinatown is the biggest and oldest in the country. It's the third most visited tourist destination in the city. It's also the city's most densely populated neighbor- hood. So why are. businesses in Chinatown struggling?
In this week's paper, I outline some of the reasons for why Chinatown's crowded streets and busy shops might be declining. Underneath the surface, Chinatown is falling. And the city, local organizations and businesses are trying to figure out what they can do to turn things around.
While numbers of people visit Chinatown, they don't stay long and they don't spend a lot of money. And beyond annual festivals,1ike Chinese New Years, this month's Moon Festival and last month's Sunday Streets - which drew about 15,000 t0 20.000 people – the neighborhood has a hard time attracting locals.
Can you remember the last. time you went to Chinatown ?If you can't, You're not alone. Locals told me that Chinatown doesn't have much to offer them - that the stores are all the same. There are some good eating joints, people said, but they don't know how to find them. Some people even told me that they sometimes go to extreme measures to avoid the neighborhood altogether. But when asked if the-v would like to see Chinatown gone, the answer was always a strong no.
Locals are hopeful that things will get better and traffic will increase when the Central Subway is complete. But chat's not for another five years. at least. And if' new shops or restaurants don't make their way into Chinatown. the same problem of attracting locals will exist.
Not that Chinatown's going to die. The dragon still has some fire in its belly. And many people are rooting for positive change. The question is, how does Chinatown change without losing the very importance of what makes it unique?
小题1:Which can we know about Chinatown according to the passage?

Many people believe the glare from snow causes snow-blindness. Yet, dark glasses or not , they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snow-blindness, when exposed to several hours of “snow light”. The United States Army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snow-blindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather, a man's eyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad expanse of barren (少植被的) snow-covered terrain (地形). So his gaze continually shifts and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache. Nature eases this irritation by producing more fluid which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity until vision blurs (模糊), then is obscured (遮蔽), and the result is total, even though temporary, snow-blindness.
Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts ahead of a main body of troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark colored objects ahead on which they too can focus. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop scouring the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snow-blind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a solid white terrain is overcome.
小题1:To prevent headaches, watering eyes and blindness caused by the glare from snow, dark
glasses are _________.

A．indispensable and essential

B．useful

C．ineffective

D．available

小题2:When the eyes are sore tears are produced to _________.

A．balance the pain	B．treat snow-blindness
C．clear the vision	D．loosen the muscles

小题3:Snow-blindness may be avoided by _________.

A．concentrating on the solid white terrain

B．searching for something to look at in snow-covered terrain

C．providing the eyes with something to focus on

D．covering the eyeballs with more fluid

小题4:The scouts shake snow from evergreen bushes in order to _________.

A．prevent the men behind losing their way

B．beautify the landscape of the terrain

C．warm themselves in the severe cold

D．give the men behind something to see

小题5:A suitable title for this passage would be _________.

A．nature's cure for snow-blindness

B．snow-blindness and how to overcome it

C．soldiers marching in the snow

D．snow vision and its effect on eyesight

Puppy Food
A puppy (young dog) is a precious addition to any family. The excitement of bringing home a little furry friend will always live in our memories. Like all of us, though, your puppy must have adequate nutrition（营养） right from the start to make certain that it’ll have a long and healthy life.
小题1:  You might ask yourself what is the best for your new pet with all of the different varieties on the market in all of their attractive packaging. Some dry food produced specially for puppies is the best for the development of their teeth.   小题2:
Contrary to the belief of many first-time puppy owners, it is not always the best idea to purchase food that is too high in calcium (钙), protein, and vitamin levels.   小题3:  In addition, a high intake of calcium is associated with bone disease in large-breed dogs. If you have a “small-breed” puppy, you can buy that kind of food.
It is not a good idea to feed the food you eat to your puppy frequently, as your puppy may become selective about food.   小题4:  Some people think that dog biscuits and other treats are fine, but they should not be a main part of puppy’s diet.
Young puppies should be fed three times a day. Each puppy is unique, however, so feeding them twice a day is acceptable. After ten to twelve weeks of age, feed your puppy twice per day. Allow your puppy to eat as much as he would like in fifteen minutes.   小题5:  If you let your puppy eat too much or too often by keeping food accessible at all times, he may become overweight and have health problems as an adult. Like humans, your puppy will not enjoy the food any longer if it is there at all times.

A．Pick up the dish with the remaining food.

B．Proper food is a basic necessity for your puppies.

C．Remember to give your puppy the food he would like to have.

D．It can also cause an upset stomach due to an unbalanced diet.

E. A further benefit is that it is less expensive than the canned food.
F. One example is that extra helpings of nutrients do harm to digestive organs.
G. It’s good to provide the extra nutrients a puppy needs until he grows larger.

A brand is a name, word, sign, symbol, design, or a combination of these, intended to identify the goods or services of a company or a group of companies. Another purpose of a brand is to contrast one company from another. The most important skill of professional marketers is the ability to create, maintain, protect, and enhance the brands of their products and services. Branding has become so important that today hardly any company or product is without one. Therefore, brand management is an increasingly important element in marketing.
Brand power refers to the relative strength of a company’s brand in the minds of consumers, and can influence consumers’ choice of products. Brands are powerful to the extent that they give high brand loyalty and strong brand associations, name recognition, perceived quality and other assets to a company. A strong brand can be one of a company’s most important assets.
High brand power provides a company with many competitive advantages. A powerful brand enjoys a high level of consumer brand awareness and loyalty. Because consumers expect stores to carry the brand, the company has more bargaining power when negotiating with retailers (零售商). And because the brand name brings high credibility, a company with a strong brand can more easily launch new products with the same brand name.
Many companies use the advantage of a strong brand power strategically to expand their business. When a company introduces an additional item with a new flavour, form, colour or package size in a given product category and under the same brand name, it is called a line extension. Another strategy is called brand extension. This involves the use of a successful brand name to launch new or modified products in a new category, thereby employing brand recognition in order to increase sales of new products.
Brand recognition is certainly important. Because consumers often hold long-standing perceptions about brands, high brand power ensure a company continued sales of its products.
小题1:What does the word “assets” in the 2nd paragraph mean?

A．points

B．advantages

C．aspects

D．elements

小题2:All of the following statements are the advantages of a high brand power EXCEPT that______.

A．a high brand wins the loyalty of consumers

B．a high brand usually sets a much higher price

C．it’s easy for a high brand company to launch new products

D．a high brand company is more competitive when doing business with retailers

小题3:A brand extension ______.

A．happens when the company is developing a new product

B．means the expansion of a company’s business in its established field

C．takes place when the company introduces a similar item but with a new colour

D．refers to the use of an established brand name to promote a new product in a new category

小题4:What might be the best title of this passage?

A．Brand Power	B．Famous Brands
C．Company Brands	D．Brand Products
