Nowadays, with the development of the Internet, we have a new place to enjoy ourselves, to find the information and to communicate with the other people.Some people think that the Internet will certainly take the place of the traditional library in future.
Surely enough, the Internet gives us great convenience in our life.It is much easier for us to find any book that we need with the help of the search engine.It seems that the Internet can hold much more books than a big library.
But I should say that I love the Internet and love the library as well.Only because I can enjoy the atmosphere of the library.And bookreading can give me a different taste and a better experience.So I will still go to the library after we have the global Internet.

A
(2011·山东预测卷)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—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's 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 misleading, but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative.“Look at traditional advertising.Its effectiveness is decreasing.” It is true, because everyone knows an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something.However, you don't know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.
51.The two attractive young women were talking so as to ______.
A.get the sweater at a lower price
B.be heard by people around
C.be admired by other shoppers
D.decide on buying the sweater
52.Lorenzo Bertolla is ________.
A.a very popular male singer
B.an advertising agency
C.a clothing company in Rome
D.the brand name of clothes
53.What can we infer from the passage?
A.Traditional advertising will soon disappear in the market.
B.The MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by all kinds of ads.
C.That traditional advertising is too direct may lead to its decreasing effectiveness.
D.Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government.
54.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Two Attractive Shoppers
B.Lorenzo Bertolla Sweaters
C.Ways of Advertising
D.Undercover Marketing
答案与解析
[语篇解读]'本文是说明文。你可曾因为别人的评论而买下某种商品?你可能想不到那些高谈阔论者有可能是商家请的“托儿”。
51.B'事实细节题。由第三段中的 They are actually paid to go from store to store,talking loudly about...可知,她们的目的就是通过大声讨论商品吸引顾客对该商品的关注和兴趣。
52.D'推理判断题。由第一段中的 looking at a sweater 及第3段最后的Lorenzo Bertolla clothes 可知,这是一个服装品牌。
53.C'事实细节题。根据最后一段的 Look at traditional advertising...to buy something.可知C项正确。A、D两项无根据;根据第五段的最后一句排除B项。
54.D'主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了商家雇人来吸引顾客的新的广告模式——undercover marketing(秘密营销)。
B
(2011·东北四市联考)My students often tell me that they don't have “enough time” to do all their schoolwork.
My reply is often a brief “You have as much time as the president.” I usually carry on a bit about there being twentyfour hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that “not enough time” is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done.
Once in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard.His answer to me was,“That's irrelevant (无关的).What's important is the quality of your work.” Since then I have had time to think carefully about the “hard worker” dodge(决窍), and I have come to some conclusions—all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.
If you analyze the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, of course, the matter of “time”, which we can think of as fixed.Then there is the problem of “work” during that time.But, as my professor suggested, it's not how hard one works but the quality of the product that's important.
That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work.That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone's office:“Don't work harder.Work smarter.” There is a lot of sense in that idea.
If you can't get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work.That means thinking of ways to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get.That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits.Since “work” for students usually means “homework”, the expression “work habits” should be read as “study habits”.
Then,as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing.If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies.
55.From the passage, we know that the author is probably ________.
A.a poet
B.an educator
C.a novelist
D.an engineer
56.We can infer from the 2nd paragraph that we students still ________.
A.have enough time
B.can meet the president
C.get everything done well
D.should accept the explanation
57.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The author's students make good use of their time to do all their homework.
B.The author tried to tell the professor that he/she (the author) had done a good job.
C.You can't improve the quality of the work if you can't get more time.
D.You'll try to improve your skills in reading and writing if you're a clever student.
58.What's the passage mainly about?
A.Students don't have enough time.
B.Don't work harder; work smarter.
C.No one can get more time.
D.Read better and write better.
答案与解析

56.A'推理判断题。第二段指出:You have as much time as the president.以及“not enough time” is not an acceptable explanation of...(“时间不够”作为……的理由是不可接受的)。由此可推断出答案。
57.D'事实细节题。根据最后一段的第一句 Then,as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study,chiefly reading and writing.可知D项正确。
58.B'主旨大意题。通读全文可知本文主题:不要苦干,要巧干。
C
(2017·西安一次质检)More than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children, a new survey showed last Tuesday.
The survey, published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $ 3 million or more in assets. It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children.”
The majority of the 457 people surveyed are self-made, first-generation rich. Fifty-two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are, and 15 percent have given away othing about the family wealth. one in three parents said they had never thought to do it.
They are worried that their children would become lazy, spend money freely, make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.
Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产)they plan to leave them.
“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation.”said Sallie Krawcheck, president of the Bank of America Global Wealth and investment Management.“Our research, however,uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”
The trend is led by the world's richest man Bill Gates, who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金会),and not to his children.
“We want to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact.”he said.
Of his plans for his children, Gates said:“I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage...they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”
59.We can learn from the passage that________.
A.rich parents may not know how to manage their inheritance
B.rich parents don't equal rich kids, at least in the US
C.American children don't get to inherit their parents' wealth
D.poor children don't expect themselves to be as rich as their parents
60.According to the survey, most rich Americans________.
A.think they owe their children nothing
B.think it best to give their money back to society
C.doubt their children's ability to handle wealth
D.are confident of their children's ability to handle wealth
61.The underlined word“they”in Paragraph 6 refers to______.
A.responsible children
B.Bill Gates and his wife
C.first-generation rich
D.rich parents
62.From the last paragraph, we can see that Bill Gates wants to show________.
A.the trend of leaving no inheritance to children
B.the positive impact of charity on society
C.the way of giving back to society
D.the importance of independence for children
答案与解析
[语篇解读]'文章主要介绍了大多数美国富人处理他们资产的方式,告诉人们保持孩子的独立性比金钱更重要。
59.B'细节推断题,根据第二段、第三段可知,在美国,大多数富人们不把他们所有的资产告诉孩子们,也不会让孩子们继承太多的资产,可以得出家长富有并不等于孩子富有。B项rich parents don't equal rich kids, at least in the US.(至少在美国是这样)家长富有并不等于孩子富有,符合题意。
60.C'逻辑推断题。根据第五段,“Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产)they plan to leave them.”(仅有34%的家长坚信他们的孩子有能力处理好留给他们的任何遗产)可以推出66%的家长对孩子们处理资产的能力表示怀疑。所以C.doubt their children's ability to handle wealth(怀疑他们的孩子处理资产的能力)符合逻辑。
61.D 关系指代题。根据第六段,第一句是一个that引导的定语从句,句意:有一个关于富有家长们的预料,that引导的定语从句揭示了富有家长们怎么样的预料,那就是他们肩负着把他们的财富传给下一代的责任。困此,这里they指的是那些富有的家长们。
62.D 段落大意题。根据最后一段句意,我要给孩子们一些钱,但不是一个有意义的百分比,他们将需要工作,但他们会感觉合理照顾 。由此可知,这样做的目的是不让孩子们过度的依赖父母,要让他们工作,学会独立。D.the importance of independence for children(独立对孩子们的重要性)符合最后一段的意思。

(2011·福建高考)Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis was one of the most private women in the world, yet when she went to work as an editor in the last two decades of her life, she revealed (展现) herself as she did nowhere else.
After the death of her second husband, Greek shipping magnate (巨头) Aristotle Onassis, Jacqueline's close friend and former White House social secretary Letitia Bald'rige made a suggestion that she consider a career(职业) in publishing.After consideration, Jacqueline accepted it.Perhaps she hoped to find there some ideas about how to live her own life.She became not less but more interested in reading.For the last 20 years of her life, Jacqueline worked as a publisher's editor,first at Viking, then at Doubleday, pursuing (追求) a latelife career longer than her two marriages combined.During her time in publishing, she was responsible for managing and editing more than 100 successfully marketed books.Among the first books were In the Russian Style and Inventive Paris Clothes.She also succeeded in persuading TV hosts Bill Moyers and Joseph Campbell to transform their popular television conversations into a book, The Power of Myth.The book went on to become an international bestseller.She dealt, too, with Michael Jackson as he prepared his autobiography (自传),Moonwalk.
