Mary is a high school student, who devoted herself to her lessons every day. Last Saturday,as usual, she went to several class. In the evening, she continued to study until deeply into night.She was too sleepy and tired that she couldn’t work effectively. On the Sunday morning, she wasabout to do her lessons while her father came up and advised her to take a break. Soon they came up a good idea. We decided to go cycling in the countryside. Mary enjoyed herself, competing and chatting with her father, and felt relaxing in the open air. On Monday, Mary was energetic but active in class.
Everyone has his own attitude 61 getting old. The night before her eighth birthday, I found my daughter Lizzy sat on her bed 62 (weep).“I love being seven,”she cried.“I don’t want to be eight!”I held her in my arms and explained that 63 was going to be even better to be eight than being seven. I told her how much I loved her and 64 a wonderful birthday she was going to have. 65 (eventual) she was comforted. It’s always strange 66 (tell) that you are a year older, even when you aren’t very old. Now I’m in my early 60s, and I don’t always recognize the face in the mirror, 67 something has changed the way that I think. The process of aging increasingly interests and amazes me, annoys and irritates me, and sometimes still makes me 68 (frighten), too, but much, much less than it used to. There is 69 ongoing sadness at the absence of the friends and family members 70 have died before me.
At the age of sixteen, I joined a volunteer group with my dad. After we arrived, we “our family”was living in a trailer(拖车) that was in condition. A crew had been working on it for two weeks, every time they finished one problem, another surfaced.
We decided the only reasonable was to build a new house-something unusual but under these circumstances. The family was with their new house.
While we ate lunch together, I asked the family’s three boys, Josh, Eric and Ryan,“What do you want for your new ?”we were when Josh responded,“I just want a bed.”
The boys had slept in a bed! They were accustomed to plastic mats. we decided beds would be the perfect . A few volunteers drove to the nearest city and beds and new bedding.
When we saw the delivery truck coming, we told the family about the . We could hardly ourselves. It was like watching children on Christmas morning.
As we the frames of the beds together, Eric ran into the house to us. As my father slipped a pillowcase (枕套) onto one of the pillows, Eric asked,
“What is that?”
“A pillow,”he replied.
“What do you it?”Eric continued to ask.
“When you go to sleep, you put your on it,”I answered softly. Tears came to our eyes as he handed Eric the pillow. “Oh . . . that’s soft,”he said, it tightly.
Now, when my sister or I start to ask for something that seems urgent, my Dad gently asks,“Do you have a pillow?”We know exactly what he .

Advertising is a highly developed twentieth-century industry. The development of radio, television, cinema, magazines and newspapers has gone hand in hand with the development of advertising. Why is advertising so popular? Is it a waste of money? It has been proved again and again that repeated advertising increases product sales. Since it increases production, the price can be reduced. Therefore advertising, instead of making a product more expensive, makes it cheaper.
Advertising is now a scientific business. Once managers would say jokingly,“I know thathalf of what I spend on advertising is wasted, but I don’t know which half.”Now, all parts of an advertising program are properly measured and researched.
What makes a good advertisement? There have been major changes in advertising in the pastsixty years. People read advertisements partly for information and partly for pleasure. Today’s advertisements often start with a question, or a puzzle, with the purpose of attracting the reader’s attention. Of course, most advertisements contain information. But this is usually contained in a text that is interesting and often funny. Humor is very important. Sometimes advertisements tell a story, or the story may be continued over a number of advertisements. However, there is a danger in this. It is possible that the reader or viewer will remember the advertisement but not the name ofthe product.
1.The purpose of advertising is ________.
A. to increase products sales
B. to make a product much better
C. to spend more money
D. to reduce the production
2.Which of the following can be used in place of the underlined phrase“ hand in hand”?
A. Here and there. B. Again and again.
C. As usual. D. At the same time.
3.What is meant by what managers said in the second paragraph?
A. All the money on advertising was wasted.
B. Not all the advertisements were well designed.
C. All the managers knew about advertising then.
D. Managers spent no money on advertising.
4. What does the writer think of advertising?
A. Useless B. Unnecessary.
C. Important. D. Wasteful.
