解析:此处是关于迪斯尼乐园的位置“south of Los Angeles”。limit意为“有限的”;locate意为“位于”;expanded意为“扩大的”。

37. C。

解析:作为一个旅游胜地“吸引”游客必为其制胜的功能,draw有“吸引”的意思。please表示“使人满意”;organize意为“组织”;benefit意为“使人受益”,三项均不合句意。

38. D。

解析:此处考查游客的来源,要求较强的逻辑性。根据下文提到回避周末或者学校放假时间来观看,所以当地人利用周末来玩的可能性最大,选D。来访者不可能只是村民或者学生,故排除A、C;从原文中看不出来访者都是外国人,所以不能选B。句子意思为“迪斯尼乐园吸引的游客大多数来自当地”。

39. A。

解析:周末和假期游客多,等候的时间肯定要长,而这里特别指出了要回避这两个时间,为的是等候的时间短一些,故排除C。此处主要指时间长短,所以排除B、D。

40. D。

解析:根据“the period”知,此处考虑的是一个时间段,所以首先排除A;圣诞前后应该是一年中的一个时间段,不可能是一天或一周,所以也排除B、C。

41. C。

解析:该部分提示游客来访时尽量来得早点,避免在好景点发生游客拥挤现象。leave(离开),plan(计划),book(预定),都不符合句意,故排除A、B、D。

42. D。

解析:该题逻辑性强,为了避开拥挤的时间段,以便有足够的时间自己游玩,所以应该提前一个小时到达,故选before,其他选项错。

43. B。

解析:提前一小时到达游乐园,是为了回避在最受欢迎的景点遇到拥挤。before crowds build可指“在游客扎堆现象形成前”。avoid意为“回避”;break意为“破裂”;combine意为“结合;使联合”,均与句子意思不符,也不符合前面的逻辑。

44. A。

解析:该段谈购票的问题。该句主语为迪斯尼乐园,为售票方,所以选A。show(出示;展览);send(发送;派遣);collect(收集)都不符合文意。

45. D。

解析:这里指迪斯尼乐园有网上售票,为了防止做假,应该是不允许游客在自己家里“print(打印)”。reserve和keep都有“储备、保存”的意思;copy(复制),均不符合逻辑。

46. A。

解析:定好的票需要邮寄给你,这需要一定的时日,所以要尽可能提前(in advance)预定。in case意为“万一”;in order意为“有条理”;in turn意为“轮流”,三项均不合句意。

47. D。

解析:此处需要一情态动词,意思吻合最关键,这里表示除了网上构票外,还“可以”通过其他途径购票,所以选may最合适。ought to意为“应该”;must意为“必须”;will意为“将要”,都不符合句子要求。

48. B。

解析:根据下文“经过两年维修和重建”来看,此处需要“重新营业”这个意思,故其他三个答案是错误的。

49. D。

解析:possibility表“可能性”;change 表“变化”;development表“进展;发展”;三个单词在和show搭配时均不能体现维修的目的。此处谈Space Mountain两年维修的目的是为了提升show effect“展览的效果”,即它的可参观性。

50. C。

解析:此处建议带小朋友的游客尽量在早晨去Fantasyland,后面是提出该建议的理由,因为是比较明显的理由,所以用as。because of不能接句子,when引导时间状语从句,since是“既然”的意思。

51. C。

解析:上文提到有几个吸引游客的景点,此处专门提示其中最好的两个地方,所以用especially。unluckily意为“不幸地”;unexpectedly意为“出乎意料地”;normally意为“正常地”。

52. B。

解析:此处指这个景点客容量较小,很容易出现游客扎堆现象,这样就很可能会等很长时间,所以用wait(名词,表示“等待的时间”),且与43题处的话题吻合。

53. A。

解析:此处需要一承上启下的转折,if not意为“如果不”,指如果不参观前面的景点,那么就……。其他选项起不到此作用,in a word意为“总而言之”;as a result意为“结果”;what’s more意为“而且”。

54. D。

解析:where引导地点状语从句;how一般表方式。这里是时间状语从句,在刚开门时,直奔Adventureland and New Orleans Square。

55. D。

解析:最后一部分谈参观各景点的顺序,最后一句为最后一处,所以用“then(然后)”最合适。

People like different kinds of vacations. Some go camping. They swim, fish, cook over a fire and sleep outside. Others like to stay at a hotel in an exciting city. They go shopping all day and go dancing all night. Or maybe they go sightseeing to places such as Disneyland, the Tai Mahan or the Louver.

Some people are bored with sightseeing trips. They don’t want to be “tourists”. They want to have an adventure--a surprising and exciting trip. They want to learn something and maybe help people too. How can they do this? Some travel companies and environmental groups are planning special adventures. Sometimes these trips are difficult and full of hardships, but they’re a lot of fun. One organization, Earth watch, sends small groups of volunteers to different parts of the world. Some volunteers spend two weeks and study the environment. Others work with animals. Others learn about people of the past.

Would you like an adventure in the Far North? A team of volunteers is leaving from Mormons, Russia. The leader of this trip is a professor from Alaska. He’s worried about chemicals from factories. He and the volunteers will study this pollution in the environment. If you like exercise and cold weather, this is a good trip for you. Volunteers need ski sixteen kilometers every day.

Do you enjoy ocean animals? You can spend two to four weeks in Hawaii. There, you can teach language to dolphins. Dolphins can follow orders such as “Bring me the large ball.” They also understand opposites. How much more can they understand? It will be exciting to learn about these intelligent animals. Another study trip goes to Washington State and follows orcas. We call orcas “killer Whale”, but they’re really dolphins—the largest kind of dolphin. This beautiful animal travels together in family groups. They move through the ocean with their mothers, grandmothers and great-grandmothers. Ocean pollution is chasing their lives. Earth watch is studying how this happens.

Are you interested in history? Then Greece is the place for your adventure. Thirty-five hundred years ago a volcano exploded there, on Santorum. This explosion was more terrible than Karate or Mount Saint Helens. But today we know a lot about the way of life of the people from that time. There are houses, kitchens, and paintings as interesting as those in Pompeii. Today teams of volunteers are learning more about people from the past.

Do you want a very different vacation? Do you want to travel far, work hard and learn a lot? Then an Earth watch vacation is for you.

The Tai Mahan may be _______.

A. a shopping center      B. a hotel        

C. a dancing hall    D. a place of interest

A. Some people find sightseeing trips boring.

Disneyland may look like a straightforward theme park. But there’s a secret world hidden behind the balloons, castles and cotton candy — a place where wild cats wander at midnight, Mickey Mouse hides in the wallpaper, and movie stars drink martinis behind closed doors.

Cat security — It’s not easy keeping the ground of Disneyland spotless, as well as free of unwanted pests. Every night after closing time, 200 wild cats were freed into the park to help keep the rodent(啮齿)population under control. Though Disney doesn’t comment on the matter, rumor(传闻)has it that the cat taskforce dates back to 1957. After unsuccessful attempts to chase them out of the park, Disney decided to put the cats to work instead.

Hidden Mickeys—At Disneyland the round-eared Mickey Mouse image is everywhere. But you can also see hundreds of “Hidden Mickeys” across the park, which are very difficult to spot: they’re camouflage (伪装)in the architecture and landscaping as well as in the smallest stylistic details.

Cocktail(鸡尾酒)behind closed doors—Disney is dry unless you can manage to get your name on the list at Club 33. The secret cocktail club has a limited membership of just 487 and a waiting list of approximately 14 years. Walt Disney designed the club as a special space to entertain possible investors; since then, it has hosted US presidents, film stars and foreign guests.

Always on stage—At Disneyland, a doorman isn’t a doorman, he is a “cast member”. So are the large numbers of cashiers, painters, ride operators, gardeners and performers. All “cast members” are trained to follow a specific rule that helps preserve the Disney magic. On the list of dos and don’ts? Never break character. If wearing a costume that belongs in Fantasyland, don’t set foot in Tomorrowland—it might Confuse visitors or break the park’s orderly image. Cast members have a Disney “look book” that details the fresh-faced ideal—no long fingernails, beards, or unnaturally colored hair allowed. It’s a return to Walt Disney’s All-American standards: when the park opened even guests with facial hair weren’t allowed entrance.

1.The reason why there are many wild cats in Disneyland is that ________.

A. they’re in charge of the cleaning of the park

B. they’re allowed to act as cleaners and guards

C. they have to keep watch in the daytime

D. they have a comfortable house to live in

2.From the passage we can know that in Disneyland “Hidden Mickeys” are _________.

A. small          B. obvious          C. everywhere       D. dishonest

3.What do the underlined Words “Disney is dry” in paragraph 4 mean?

A. It’s easy to join the Club 33.           B. The ground keeps dry.

C. It doesn’t often rain.                 D. Drinking alcohol is forbidden.

4. From the last paragraph, we can know the workers in Disneyland _______.

A. must know the dos and don’t

B. needn’t have their facial hair shaved

C. can wear unnaturally colored hair

D. mustn’t get in Tomorrowland

 

 

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,touring 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.managers                              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
