| Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there arc a number of reasons for this. Some people blame the fact that we arc surrounded (包围) by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food. There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives. There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime (消遣), it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports. The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits. |
| 1. According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food? |
| A. Those who often take exercise. B. Those who often watch television. C. Those who often have meals at home. D. Those who often walk to school. |

| A. their parents often cook meals for them B. they are too busy to go out and play C. they can't choose what to eat D. there are too many fast food shops around |
| 3. The word "steering" underlined in the last sentence most probably means _____. |
| A. forcing B. guiding C. driving D. moving |
| 4. The main purpose of the text is to _____. |
| A. tell a story B. provide facts C. give advice D. compare opinions |

| As societies develop, their members start to see things not so much according to what they need, but according to what they want. When people have enough money, these wants become demands. Now, it' s important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies (策略). There are various ways of doing this. One way at supermarkets (超市), for example, is to interview (采访) customers while they' re doing their shopping. They can be asked what they prefer to buy and then the results of the research can be studied. This provides information on which to base future marketing strategies. It's also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public, as if they were ordinary customers, to get an idea of how customers act. Another way to get information from customers is to give them something. For example, some fast food restaurants give away tickets in magazines or on the street that permit customers to get part of their meal for nothing. As well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money, it also allows the managers to get a feel for where to attract customers and which age-groups to attract. Another strategy used at some well-known parks such as Disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work, touting the park dressed as Mickey Mouse or something like that. This provides them with a perfect chance to examine the scene and watch the customers without being noticed. |
| 1. The text is designed for _____. |
| A. mangers B. salesmen C. researchers D. customers |
| 2. Which of the following can help managers get useful information? |
| A. Visiting customers themselves. B. Giving customers free food on the street. C. Visiting parks as ordinary customers. D. Asking customers questions at supermarkets. |
| 3. What does the word "this" underlined in the last sentence refer to? |
| A. Visiting Disneyland. B. Wearing attractive clothes. C. Acting Mickey Mouse. D. Dressing up and walking around. |
| 4. The main idea of the text is _____. |
| A. how to do market research B. how to develop marketing strategies C. how to find out customers' social needs D. how to encourage customers to spend more money |

| The summer I was ten, my mother decided to bring us to the world of art. My brother and I were not very excited when we realized what my mother meant. What she meant was not that we could take drawing classes or painting classes but that we would have to spend one afternoon a week with her at the Fine Arts Museum. Before each visit to the museum, she made us read about artists and painting styles (风格). It was almost as bad as being in school. Who wants to spend the summer thinking about artists when you could be with your friends at the swimming pool? First we had to read about ancient Egyptians (古埃及人) and their strange way of painting faces and then go to look at them at the museum. My 12-year-old brother thought this was so funny, but I was not interested. Later we had to learn about artists in the Middle Ages who painted people wearing strange long clothing. We had to look at pictures of fat babies with wings and curly (鬈曲的) hair and with no clothes on flying around the edges of paintings. I certainly couldn't see what was so great about art. On our last visit to the museum, something happened when I saw a painting by a woman called Mary. In it, a woman was reading to a child. The colors were soft and gentle, and you could tell by the mother's expression how happy she was just to be with the child. I couldn't stop looking at this painting! I wanted to see every painting Mary had ever made! It was really worth looking at so many paintings to find a painter who could interest me so much. |
| 1. The aim of the mother's plan was to _____. |
| A. take them to visit the museum B. introduce them to the world of art C. ask them to read about artists D. show them different painting styles |
| 2. What was the writer's experience in the museum before the last visit? |
| A. She came to feel her mother's love. B. She liked many paintings. C. She hardly enjoyed herself. D. She could understand the pictures of fat babies. |
| 4. What was the writer's experience in the museum before the last visit? |
| A. She came to feel her mother's love. B. She liked many paintings. C. She hardly enjoyed herself. D. She could understand the pictures of fat babies. |
| 5. From the text, we can see _____. |
| A. the importance of curiosity B. the effect of art C. the value of learning D. the power of family education |

| Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal (信号). Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship. Different cultures emphasize (强调) the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk", usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries-like the UK or France-people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or caf6s rather than at the office. Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary. Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly. People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment (多元文化环境) will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other. |
| 1. In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to _____. |
| A. develop closer relations B. share the same culture C. get to know each other D. keep each other company |
| 2. The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that _____. |
| A. the English prefer to make long speeches B. too many words are of no use C. people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature D. even talk and silence can be culturally different |
| 3. According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better? |
| A. By sharing different ways of life. B. By accepting different habits. C. By recognizing different values. D. By speaking each other's languages. |
| 4. What would be the best title for the text? |
| A. Multicultural Environment. B. Cross-Cultural Differences. C. How to Understand Each Other. D. How to Build Up a Relationship. |
