Goog morning, Ladies and gentleman. My topic is “________”.
Now in the 21st century, advertising is more and more important for people. Why? I think it is because through advertising, people, especially the businessmen, can introduce their products to the people all over the world. Because of this, many companies spend a lot of money on advertising. As we all know, there are many advertisements which are very interesting and popular. For example, Michael Jordan made an interesting advertisement for Nike. From this you can see how the companies make their products known to the world.
People can make a lot of money through advertising. It is known that many famous singers and movie stars make money in this way. However, I don’t think this is a good way for them to make money, because they are not the professional advertisers, especially those who advertise in medicine advertisements.
Nowadays, advertising not only means making the products known, but also means make ourselves known to people around us. Living today, we have to make people believe in us if we want to do important jobs. But how can this be done? We should first let other people know our good side: the good habits and abilities we have. In short, we should always remember to advertise ourselves to others. As I said before, advertising is not only important for companies but also for everyone, for all human beings. This is the most interesting thing about advertising.
小题1:The best topic to fill in the line in the first paragraph is “___________”.    
A.The Importance of Advertising
B.Making Money through Advertising
C.Advertising Ourselves
D.Advice on Advertisements
小题2:This passage may be a (an) ____________.
A.advertisementB.storyC.speechD.report
小题3:According to the passage, which of the following is not right?
A.Many companies are willing to spend money on advertising.
B.Advertising can make some people rich.
C.People can introduce their products through advertisements.
D.Advertising in not necessary for anyone.
Imagine this: your parents go away on business, but you have to stay at home alone(独自地). Would life be as easy as when your parents are ____? Would it be a perfect(完美的) holiday for you?
Zheng Chenyu says that she would _____ “Where can I find food? How can I cook it?” The 14-year-old girl says that she knows ____ about cooking.
“I can have tomato and egg soup(汤), but that’s all. I think many of my classmates are the same. We don’t know what to do, or how to ____ ourselves,” said Zheng. “And I may(可能) forget something important. I may probably ______ television and then burn(煮干) the soup.”
_____ Zheng believes that basic life skills(生活技能), such as cooking and washing clothes, are especially important, she doesn’t think teenagers get enough practice.
“As soon as I leave home, I’ll learn to cook. But now parents do almost ______ for us. We’re very lazy,” she said.
Most teenagers only have time for their ______. They don’t learn any life skills until they go to college(大学).
However, Sima Yige doesn’t think so.
“I think I’d be all right. I wouldn’t just eat sandwiches or fruit. I know how to cook some ______ dishes because my mum showed me,” the 13-year-old boy said. In his opinion, many teenagers depend(依靠) too much on their parents, and there is much more to learn than cooking, like “______ up your room or even dressing yourself properly”.
For most teenagers it wouldn’t be a holiday at all.

From 8:30 pm to 9:30pm on Saturday, March 23rd, 2013, a great number of people around the world turned off the lights for Earth Hour. It is a bit like an environmental New Year, providing a chance to help care for our earth and make people around the world learn how important it is to do that.
What did you do for Earth Hour this year? Let’s share the Earth Hour stories.
Emma was on one of the mountains near the city and took photos of my city. It was great to watch the stars and the moon after a busy day that she could enjoy this relaxing moment.
Albert works as a waiter in a restaurant. Their restaurant was still open even for Earth Hour as they got lots of reservations(预定) that night. So they spent the hour working by candlelight. And guess what? Their customers loved that and promised to come for next Earth Hour.
Brandon turned off the main power to his house and went for a walk for Earth Hour. It was a little strange to walk in the dark, but it was only for one hour. Just think of what it must have been like before the invention of light bulb!
Mary invited her friends who know and support Earth Hour activities. They actually had a candlelight and they talked about the old happy days that they spent together in college.
