The US government has started a website，Admongo，to help children think critically about the advertising aimed at them．It claims to provide visitors with an"aducation"through games and other entertainment．
A cartoon man dressed in old time pilot clothing greets visitors to Admongo．"Call me Haiz"，he says upon arrival in a rocket ship that opens up with a crazy world inside it．Spacey dance music plays in the background as Haiz tells visitors that they need to learn about advertising．
Its inventors say eight to twelve years old is the age kids develop their critical thinking abilities．Kids that age are also a big market for advertisers．
The idea behind Admongo is to teach children three things：To identify the advertiser．To know what the advertiser is really saying．And to know what the advertisement is trying to get the child to do．
Children learn these things through a video game．They create their own game character．They can choose different skin colors，hair styles，eye and mouth shapes．Then they begin a trip through ad-land，where there are ads on buses and billboards．The players have to find all the marketing in the neighborhood before they can move on to the next level．
The Admongo game takes players inside a home，to the advertising studio and everywhere else ads can be found．It is a complete exploration of the world of marketing．
One such area is food marketing．The Federal Trade Commission（FTC） says it is a big business．The FTC estimates that food，drink and fast-food restaurants spent more than one and a half billion dollars on advertising to young people in 2009．
The FTC says children are important for three reasons．They buy products．They influence parents and caregivers to buy．And they are the future adult buyers of the products．
A recent study says most advertising aimed at children is for foods of the lowest nutritional value．First Lady Michelle Obama has said she would like to see advertisers marketing healthy foods for children．

10．When Americans in the manufacturing sector （制造业） cried out，"The Chinese are coming，"some years ago，they expressed a restless concern and warning about a possible loss of job opportunities．Now Americans in the tourism industry issued the same cry on June 17-but this time，it was a welcome call to greet the first organized group of Chinese tourists to the United States．U．S．tourism officials have high expectations that well-off Chinese visitors，who are ready and willing to spend loads of yuan，will give a big help to their industry．
"We're very excited，"said Helen N．Marano，Director of the Office of Travel and Tourism Industries under the U．S．Department of Commerce．Before she talked to Beijing Review on June 17，Marano and her colleagues had been waiting for more than two hours at Washington Dulles International Airport to give a warm welcome to the first organized group of Chinese tourists to visit the United States．
The first group consisted of 250 tourists，who left from Beijing，Shanghai and Guangdong on June 17，the day when newly appointed Chinese Vice Premier Wang Qishan and U．S．Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson started the fourth round of the China-U．S．Strategic Economic Dialogue （SED） in Annapolis，Maryland．Each was backed by a big group of heavyweight ministerial officials．
Coincidence （巧合） could not provide a satisfactory explanation to the two events taking place on the same day．As a perfect example of one of the concrete results of the high-level dialogue between the two countries started by Chinese President Hu Jintao and U．S．President George W．Bush in 2006，the first Chinese tourist group's arrival in the United States was widely reported by the Chinese media．
At the previous SED meeting last December，Chairman of the Chinese National Tourism Administration Shao Qiwei and U．S．Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez signed an agreement between China and the United States to advance tourist group travel from China to the United States．Under this agreement，China agreed to give an"approved destination status"to the United States，allowing Chinese travel agencies to market tourism to American destinations and permitting U．S．destinations to advertise directly to the Chinese public．
The agreement"is estimated to bring up to 100 million Chinese travelers to the United States over the next 15 years，"Paulson said．
But what people in the U．S．tourism industry care more about is how they can get a big slice of the pie．
"I'm getting calls already from people saying things like，‘How do we get to do this？'and‘How do we attract Chinese tourists to our area？'"Marano told Beijing Review．Marano said she had been waiting for this market to be open for more than five years and that she was so excited now to see it finally happen．

C．the Chinese are usually well organized when travelling
D．Wang Qishan and Henry Paulson started the fourth round of the China-U．S．SED
65．We can infer from the passage thatC．
A．Chinese tourist agencies could organize groups of Chinese to go to the U．S．without the agreement
B．Marano and her colleagues waited at the airport to see how well organized the Chinese were
C．many Americans take a positive attitude toward Chinese tourists

9．Do you find yourself leading groups，or are you naturally more comfortable following others？Research published today shows that if you want to be a leader you're better off at the edges of a crowd，and not in the middle of the action．
In a series of experiments on crowd behaviour，a research team at the University of Leeds also found that successful leaders display more decisive behaviour，spending less time following others and acting more quickly than others in the group．
Lead researcher Jolyon Faria said："It was interesting to find that the most effective leaders remained on the edges of the group and attempted to lead from the front．You'd think leaders in the centre of the group should interact more often with others and therefore be more effective but here this wasn't the case．"
The research team asked groups of eight students to walk around continuously in a specified area and remain as a group without speaking or gesturing to one another．
One person was asked to move towards a target，while remaining a member of the group，without letting the others know that he or she was leading them to a target．In a second set of experiments，the students were told to follow"the leader"，but not told who the leader was．
In the second set of experiments，it was found that those leaders who remained on the edge of the group were able to move their group towards a target much more quickly than the leaders that chose to remain in the centre．
"We wanted to find out how people decided who to follow"said Faria．"We found that people were able to identify their leader by what position the leader takes，which helps explain how animals in groups-such as birds and fish-can be led by only a small minority，even when leaders don't signal their identity．"
"Our findings have illustrated a general principle behind group behaviour．This can also be applied to animal groups，something that could help in the management of the natural environment，as well as in the management of the urban environment．"
（Note：Answer the questions and complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS．）

78．The decisive behavior successful leaders display in a group is that theyspend less time following others and act more quickly．
79．According to Jolyon Faria，people tend to have the wrong belief that leaders shouldstay in the center of the group and interact more with others in order to be more effective．
80．We can learn from the passage that the fish leaders may lead the whole group byremaining on the edges of the group．
81．What does"a general principle"refer to in the last paragraph？People can identify their leader by the position he takes．

5．While applying to college may seem easy，getting in can be tough!When you apply for college，you will have to be honest with yourself and do a bit of research to find the right fit．Here are three steps to take when applying to colleges for the best chances at getting into the best college for you．
     Step l：Making A List Of Colleges To Apply To
     With over 6，000 colleges in the United States，the
first step in applying to college is to do some research
and make a college list．This process will be different for
everyone．The number of colleges you apply to can vary，
from applying to 1 school （not recommended） to 30
schools （not recommended），each applicant can choose
how many colleges they apply to．Many limit the number because applications are accompanied by a fee．．
     Step2：Splitting The List Into Target，Reach and Safety Schools
     In general，students will want to apply to three types of schools：Target，Reach and Safety schools．It is up to you how many applications you send，but a good mix would be more target than reach，and at least one safety．You will need to take your list，and now decide which are your top picks，which are attainable for you academically，which are affordable for you only with aid，and refine your broad list into a group of schools that gives you the best chance for success．Talk to an admissions counselor at your high school if you have questions about this．
     Step 3：Completing and Sending Applications to Colleges
     Once your list is complete you are ready to apply to college by completing and sending in applications!College applications take time to complete-you have to write essays，ask for recommendations and get test scores sent to schools-so stay organized！All colleges will require these types of application materials，so start thinking about these items well before October or December．Once you complete and send them，then you have successfully applied to college．
66．It can be learned from the first paragraph thatA．
A．you should be cautious to pick up the right college
B．you don't have to think twice before applying to college
C．once you apply to a college，you'll be admitted to it easily
