Once a man asked a painter to painting a picture for him. He told the artist he didn’t want to any shadows in the picture, just sunshine, but the artist did so. When the man saw the finished picture, he was disappointing. Without shadows, everything in the picture looks flat and unreal.

The point of the story is that we need both shadows and sunshine to have a completely picture, just as we need both rain and sun to have living world. People, too, needs both sadness and happiness. We often learn important lesson during sad times. So when we feel sad, we should try to stop and think about that we might learn from the experience.

The latest target for TV advertisers is children in Asia. Asian families are getting smaller and wealthier, and Asian children are watching more and more TV. It is said that the average Hong Kong child sees about 25,000 TV advertisements a year.

To get the attention (and the money) of these young audiences, the advertisers use little actors. “The kids share the same feelings with someone from their own age group,” says one advertiser, “so this kind of advertisement is more effective. And, of course, the little actors earn big money.”

Not everyone is happy to see kids turned into buyers. “Advertising to children is wrong,” said Pasty Liang, “because its aim is to make them ask their parents for money to buy things. Also, many things advertised, such as toys, are silly and encourage violence. If a child buys them, he or she will learn nothing.” Some educators believe that if young people watch the ads, they will become more and more materialistic.

Some people even think it wrong to use little actors in TV advertisements. “It is illegal for kids to work in factories, so why are they allowed to work in ads? Also, considering the high salaries, it is bad for children to have too much money.” said Elvis Hu.

As an advertiser, J W Lu clearly has his own opinion about this. “It is nothing wrong with children earning a lot of money or asking their parents to buy things for them. Besides, kids buy toy to have fun, not to learn from.”

Anyway, governments are beginning to take action to protect children. An ad would not be allowed to appear on TV if it made children feel inferior (低人一等的) because they didn’t own the advertised product.

1.The advertisers use little actors so that ________.

A. the ads can attract young audiences

B. the little actors can earn big money

C. the kids will share the same feelings

D. people will see more TV advertisements

2.What does the underlined word “illegal” mean?

A. Not liked by the children.

A. Little actors earn less money than adults.

B. Advertisers want children to learn from toys.

5.What is the best title for the passage?

London is great .It's great .Rome and Paris were fine places ,but I knew as soon as we landed in London ,this was the finest of the three.

There are only two small things which I don't like about London . First of all, everyone speaks English here. I had so much fun in Rome and Paris . There I could speak in foreign languages. In words ,I made a lot of friends that way .But here everybody can understand me. I don't have any reason to start up a conversation with a stranger . And speaking of restaurants that is the other problem with London . The food here is no good at all! I haven't had one good meal in the three days we've been here.

Since you asked me to write to you about everything I learned on this trip ,here is what I've learned about London.

London's population of eleven million makes it the second largest city in the world .It is bigger than New York but not as big as Tokyo .London is twice the size of New York .It has an area of 620 square miles!

The Thames River runs right through the center of the city .Someone once called the Thames “liquid history”.It is a very good name. Dozens of armies have crossed it over the past few thousand years .One of the first was the army of Julius Caesar two thousand years ago .And most recentlyMr .and Mrs. Gill.

So far I have only had time to visit one neighborhood .It is called Bloomsbury .In fact there is a group of writers known as the Bloomsbury Group. It got its name because so many of them lived there. Virginia Woolf was one of them .I know how much you like her novels.

Baker Street is also part of Bloomsbury .Do you remember who once lived on Baker Street When I asked Bob this question, he answered,“a man who baked bread ,right ” Sherlock Holmes ,of course ,I won't have time to find his address .Maybe you will when you come.

1.We learn from the first two paragraphs that _______.

A. it is more difficult to start up a conversation in English in London than in any languages

B. the writer had made a trip in Italy and France before she came to England

C. of all the meals the writer has had in London, only one she thinks is good enough

2.It seems that the writer _______.

A. A man who baked bread. B. Sherlock Holmes.

C. The former US Secretary of State. D. A friend of the writer's.

America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.

Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.

Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.

For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!

1.The writer of this passage must be ______________.

A. an American B. a Chinese

C. a professor D. a student

A. warmly welcomed at the airport B. offered a ride to his home

C. treated hospitably at his home D. treated to dinner in a restaurant

4.The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean __.

A. strict with time B. serious with time

C. careful with time D. willing to spend time

5.This passage is mainly talking about “______________”.

A. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendships

B. Americans’ hospitality

C. Friendships between Americans

A program developed by the Prime Minister David Cameron in Britain was run to measure the nation's well?being(幸福感)recently.

The Office for National Statistics(ONS) analysed responses from more than 2,000 people. The results showed that job security, personal health and relationships between family members were at the top three of most people's concerns.

Other key factors of a happy life were parents' sense of the security of their children's future. Parents are often concerned whether their children can have a good life and a nice place to live. People were more likely to consider having a job to be important to them than being paid a high salary.

Anastasia, a social policy analyst, said employment was central to people's sense of identity and well?being. “A job is about your life; it is not about your income,” she said, “It is about every aspect—having the motivation to get up in the morning, self?respect and being a role model for your children. Income is almost secondary to that. People's lives fall apart if they don't have a job. They are much more likely to be depressed if they are out of work, and there is a strong relationship between unemployment and family breakdown and health difficulties.”

The Prime Minister launched the program in an attempt to create a broader measure of Britain's success than the performance of the economy. Mr Cameron said governments had a role in helping people feel better and that the national well?being index should help wider society build a better life.

Paul Allin, director of the well?being project at the ONS, said the program would combine objective data, such as employment and life expectancy rates, with subjective(主观的) measures, such as job satisfaction and self?reported health, to give a more complete picture of national well?being. “We want to encourage people to tell us what matters to them,” he said, “The more responses we have to the debate, the more realistic a picture of the UK we will have.”

1.What is the purpose of David Cameron's program?

A. To help people live a happier life.

B. To tell people what is real happiness.

C. To find out people's attitude towards happiness.

D. To see if people are satisfied with the government.

2.According to the passage, the top three factors that affect most people's happiness are ________.

a.personal health

b.high salary

c.job security

d.relationships between family members

A. a,b,c B. a,c,d

C. b,c,d D. a,b,d

3.Which of the following is NOT the view of Anastasia on employment?

A. It requires people to get up in the morning.

B. It helps people keep his or her self?respect.

C. It makes people be an example to his or her children.

D. It brings enough money for people to live on.

4.What can we learn from the passage?

A. The program pushes the government to develop the economy.

B. More people are encouraged to take part in the program.

C. It's difficult to get a satisfying answer from the program.

D. Getting a high income is more important than having a job.

Imagine you got paid to go shopping,and could keep the things you bought with other people's money.Does this sound like a dream?Well,for some,like Amy Knott,from Chicago,this is their job.

Amy Knott is a mystery shopper.She is paid to visit a store,eat in a restaurant,go to a bank,stay in a hotel,get her hair cut,fill up her gas tank,or see a movie.She pretends to be an ordinary customer,but afterwards she writes a report about her experience,commenting on things like: How long did you wait in line?Was the flood hot?Did the cashier say "thank you"?Did the restroom have soap and tissue?This gives companies useful information about how they can improve their customer service.

So who can become a mystery shopper?You do not need any special qualifications or experience,but you need a good memory,an eye for detail,and good writing skills.When you apply for the job,instead of an interview,you will be asked to write about something like:"What was your best shopping experience?"

What is the pay like?For a 15-minute visit to a store,you might get $10 and the cost of what you buy.For a haircut,you might get $35 and the cost of the haircut.Most mystery shoppers do this job in their spare time,like Byron Jenner,who visits a restaurant on his lunch break every day and earns about $500 extra a month.But others, like Amy,make it their full-time career,and earn up to $40,000 a year.

"I love mystery shopping.I can't believe I actually get paid to have fun,"she says."For example,tonight my husband and I will go out,have a $150 dinner,go to stay at a luxury hotel,and I'll walk away with $300."
