19、 document B Never go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice. If you go shopping for food before lunchtime, youll probably buy more than you plan to. Unfortunately, however, just this advice isnt enough for consumers these days. Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not
20、to buy things at the store. First, you check the weekly newspaper ads. Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In other words, dont buy anything just because it s cheaper than usual! “New and Improved! ” or “All Natural” on the front of a package influence you
21、. Instead, read the 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 4 页，共 15 页 - - - - - - - - - 5 list of contents on the back. Third, compare prices, that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand. Another sugge
22、stion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages. These products are cheaper because producers don t spend much money on packing or advertising. The quality, however, is usually as good as the quality of well-known name bran
23、ds. In the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous. Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. Although these stores arent very attractive, and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms, not only a
24、re the prices low, but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high-priced department stores. Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials, but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology behind the ads. In other words, well informed consumers watch f
25、or information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions: Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial(商业广告), or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? With the answers to these questions
26、, consumers can make a wise choice. 25 All the following statements are true about the phrase “ordinary items” in Paragraph 2 except _. A. ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brands. B. producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary items . C. the quality of ordinary items is usua
27、lly as good as that of famous brands. D. ordinary items never say “New and Improved” or “All Natural”.26What does the writer think about ads? A. They are believable. B. They are attractive. C. They are helpful. D. They are harmful. 27One of the authors suggestions to consumers is _.A. to buy any ord
28、inary items instead of famous brands . B. to make use of advertisements carefully for shopping.

29、ds like “New and Improved” or “All Natural”.28The author implies that _. A. advertisements sometimes dont tell the truth to the consumers.B. discount clothing stores are only good places to go to for shopping. C. going into the supermarket hungry, you may buy less than you plan to. D. the quality of
30、 ordinary items is usually high and the prices are relatively low. C Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life. In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable
31、to think that by free education for all whether rich or poor, clever or stupid one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degree ；they
32、refuse to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor; we can live without education
33、, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our townsIn fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can
34、 do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that it is very bad to be ashamed of ones work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society. 29. The writer of the passage thinks that _. A. educa
35、tion can settle most of the worlds problemsB. free education for all probably leads to a perfect world C. free education wont help to solve problemsD. all the social problems cant be solved by education30.

A. the means B. the system C. the value D. the type D For decades, the San Francisco Bay area has been the heart of the comp
38、uter technology industry. Many of the biggest technology companies have their headquarters in the area called Silicon Valley. But the area has not always been associated with charity(慈善 ). Now, a new generation of entrepreneurs(企业家 )appears to be changing Silicon Valley. One example is Marc Benioff,
39、 a donor( 捐赠者 ), who has called on wealthy donors to give more to their communities. He also is the founder of Salesforce. com, a computer services company in San Francisco who has helped build a children s hospital and given millions of dollars to non-profit organizations in the city. Money from th
40、e technology industry has also started to change the face of charity. Benjamin Soskis writes about the history and ideas behind charity in America. His articles have appeared in The Atlantic magazine and a number of major publications. He says, traditionally, donors have given after they spent much
41、of their lives building up wealth. Usually donors are in their 70s. But an increasing number of people appearing on the list of top donors are younger than 40 years of age. Benjamin Soskis says that is something new. “Theres a whole new model thats appearing in which people give and accumulate at th
42、e same time. ”Some of the young donors on this years top 50 list have started to change in the way people see charity. That is especially the case in the San Francisco area, where giving money and making money appear to be coming together. “I think its fair to say that charity 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 -

There is a big difference between the amount of sleep you can get by on and the amount you need to function at your best
49、. 38 Keep stress in check. Stress is one of the brain s worst enemies. Over time, stress destroys brain cells. Studies have also linked stress to memory loss. Have a laugh. 39 That holds true for the brain and the memory, as well as the body. Unlike emotional responses, which are limited to specific
50、 areas of the brain, laughter engages multiple regions across the whole brain. _40_ Just as the body needs fuel, so does the brain.
