Yesterday I together with my elder brother was a college student went shopping．At the gate of the store，we meet a homeless man，Frank．He said he lost his home in the hurricane but he had no place to have a good sleep．He was begged and trying to get﹩25，so he could get four hours in a cheap hotel where he could sleep without not anyone bothering him．All he had to keep him warmly was a jacket．When my brother came out of the store he had bought the new coat．In my surprise，he walked up to Frank and handed him the new coat．Frank said，"Did you buy this for me？"My brother said no，but he wanted Frank to have them．Frank just stood there holding the coat，almost in tear．

16．A new report has concluded that advertising managers are becoming increasingly interested in children．Studies show that children influence about 50 percent of things that families buy，so they're an attractive target for advertisers．
John Taylor，the author of the report，says："Advertisers can reach their target in many ways．They can，for example，show an ad many times during school holidays，they can make the TV advertisements a little louder than the programmes to attract attention，or they can sponsor（赞助） programmes and show their advertisements just before the programme begins．"
Most advertisements aimed at children are short，imaginative and often in the form of animated cartoons（动画片）．"Children love the ads and watch them in the same way as any entertainment programme，"Taylor says．
There're concerns about advertising aimed at young people．The concerns are shared by Sarah Durham，a writer and journalist specialising in media analysis．"The most worrying thing is that children don't think carefully when they see television advertisements．They're less critical than adults and don't usually realise the advertisement has a persuasive message，to encourage them or their parents to spend as much money as possible on the product or service，"she says．
There're also concerns over the vast sums of money that junk food producers spend on advertising to persuade children to buy their food products．Many advertisements，argues Durham，sell food that is a lot higher in fat，salt and sugar than healthier alternatives．Many companies target children with offers of free toys，models of cartoon characters and gimmicky （耍花招的） packaging．"
Government approaches to controlling advertising to children vary．In Sweden，one of the strictest countries where advertising is concerned，TV advertising to children under the age of 12is banned．Greece bans television advertisements for children's toys between 7a．m．and 10p．m．Denmark and the Netherlands also have legal controls whereas France，Britain and Germany prefer self-regulation （自动调节）．
Some countries are not as certain as the Swedes that advertising to children is harmful．The French argue that children need to see many advertisements so that they can develop their ability to think as they grow up．The belief is that advertising will help children to be more aware of its persuasive power．

32．What does John Taylor mainly talk about in Paragraph 2？A
A．Ways in which advertisers reach children．
B．The time children spend watching television．
C．Examples of successful advertising to children．
D．The serious problems of advertising to children．
33．Why is Sarah Durham concerned about advertising aimed at children？C
A．TV ads limit children's imagination．
B．TV ads affect children's brain development．
C．Children lack the good sense to make decisions．
D．Children may spend lots of time watching television．
34．What does Durham say about the food advertised？C
A．It's tasty．B．It's cheap．C．It's unhealthy．D．It's ready-made．
35．What is the French's attitude toward advertising to children？B

15．A California bus driver is being awarded as a hero after he saved a young boy who had been kidnapped（绑架）nearly an hour earlier from the Milpitas Public Library，in Milpitas，California．
The 3-year-old was at the library with his mother when he was kidnapped by 23-year-old Alfonso David Edington．On learning of the boy's kidnapping，officers and library officials responded without hesitation and closed the library to incoming and outgoing traffic，while putting all authorities and public transit drivers on alert（警觉） to keep a look out for a young boy wearing plaid shorts and red shoes，and the suspected kidnapper，wearing a black hoodie（连帽衫）．
About an hour after the kidnapping，Santa Clara Valley Transit Authority bus driver Tim Watson noticed a crying young boy on his bus，who happened to be sitting next to a man wearing a black hoodie．Not wanting to raise suspicion，the quick thinking Watson pulled the bus over and pretended to check the aisles（通道）for a missing green backpack．
"What I'm really trying to do is to get up without him knowing to look at the little boy．So sure enough，I see the plaid shorts and red shoes．That's what really stuck out in my mind，"Watson said．
After returning to his seat，Watson radioed police to tell them that he'd found the kidnapped boy，and that he would be stopping the bus at the Fremont train station-about 12miles from where the child was kidnapped．
When Edington went to disembark with the child in tow，Watson wanted to give the police enough time to get into position．"The bus driver is a hero，an absolute hero，"Milpitas Police Chief Steve Pangelinan said that Watson's sharp eye and quick thinking saved the boy from his kidnapper．
The child was reunited with his emotional parents at the Milpitas Police Station，and as for the hero bus dirver，he just wanted to get home to hug his own kids．Thanks to the quick thinking Tim Watson，who saved the boy from his kidnapper，both he and the boy's parents will be hugging their children just a little bit tighter from now on．

14．Frank Lloyd Wright probably is the greatest architect that the United States has ever produced．He was very talented and had a natural ability to design buildings．His buildings were not only beautiful，but they were also functional（实用的）．They fit their purposes very well．Wright's churches，for example，make people feel like thinking and praying．His office buildings make people enjoy working，and his houses make people feel comfortable at home．However，Frank Lloyd Wright's beautiful，functional buildings are not the only reason that he is famous．There is another reason．
Frank Lloyd Wright is called the greatest American architect because he started an American style in architecture．More of the architecture in the United States before Wright was really European，not American．Wright's buildings do not look like those in old European States and in other parts of the world．
The most important idea in Frank Lloyd Wright's style of architecture is that a building must fit its purpose and the land around it．His houses are often called"grass-land houses"because their lines are similar to the lines on the grass-land．Both the lines of the grass-land and the lines of Wright's houses are parallel（平行的） to the horizon，the place where the earth and sky seem to meet．

13．Papa's Straw HatPapa was a ranger．He worked with horses．He always wore clean clothes with a hat even when he worked．His hat was always the same kind of a cowboy hat-large black hat of heavy wool．He wore his hat full and high．I think he wanted to look taller than he really was．
Mama was proud of the way he looked when he wore his hat and his best clothes．But in some way she got the idea that papa would lose his hair if he kept wearing a heavy wool cowboy hat in the hot weather．She began to talk about his hats．
"Papa，"she said one day，"why don't you get a nice cool straw hat？That heavy wool cowboy hat may cause losing hair!"Papa laughed at her and explained that the horses wouldn't recognize him if he changed the hat．But she didn't believe him．
Mama talked and talked about the hat all summer long．At last papa answered，a little angry，"It would not the cowboy hat but a wife's talking about the hat that makes me lose my hair．"
Mama had a very serious look on her face．She went straight out and later came home with a straw hat．It was a bad year for ranger and we didn't have much money．She thought that if she spent the money for a straw hat，papa would wear it．When papa saw the hat，his face got red．Without a word，he pulled the straw hat down over his head until it hid his eyes and went on to train the horses．
He was a good ranger and gentle to his horses．But as papa got close to the horses this time，they jumped high into the air，raising their front feet．All of them ran around in the rounded field and then raced toward the barn．Papa began to shout"Woo boys．Steady boys，steady．"But there was nothing equal to．
Papa walked back straight to the stove in the kitchen，pushed the straw hat deep down into the fire then turned to mama，in a way that even frightened me．"Now listen to me，mama．Understand this I will never wear a straw hat or any other kind of hat my horses do not like．"Then he put on his wool cowboy hat and walked out of the house．
I never heard mama talk any more about hats．Perhaps，that is why when papa died many years later，there was a round spot on the top of his head where there was no hair．

Pahlsson screamed（63）soloudly that her daughter came running from the house．"she thought I had hurt （64）myself（I），"says Pahlsson
Sixteen years（65）earlier（early），Pahlsson had removed the diamond ring（66）to cook （cook）a meal．When she wanted to put the ring back on later，it was gone．She suspected that one of her three daughters-then ten．eight，and six-had picked it up，but the girls said they hadn't．Pahlsson and her husband （67）searched（search）the kitchen，checking every corner，but turned up nothing．"I gave up hope of finding my ring again，"she says．She never replaced it．
Pahlsson and her husband now think the ring probably got （68）swept（sweep）into a pile of kitc hen rubbish and was spread over the garden，（69）whereit remained until the carrot's leafy top accidentally sprouted（生长）through it．For Pahlsson its return was（70）awonder．

11．I first met Paul Newman in 1968，when George Roy Hill，the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid，introduced us in New York City．When the studio didn't want me for the film-it wanted somebody as well known as Paul-he stood up for me．I don't know how many people would have done that； they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers．
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference，we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV．We were respectful of craft（技艺）and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play．Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors：humorous，aggressive，and making fun of each other-but always with an underlying affection．Those were also at the core（核心）of our relationship off the screen．
We shared the brief that if you're fortunate enough to have success，you should put something back-he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill，and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival．Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly，but sharing that brought us together．We supported each other financially and by showing up at events．
I last saw him a few months ago．He'd been in and out of the hospital．He and I both knew what the deal was，and we didn't talk about it．Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words．
