Until the twentieth century cigarettes were not an important threat to public health． Men used tobacco mainly in the form of cigars． Most women did not use tobacco at all．

The cigarette industry began in the 1870s with the development of the cigarette manufacturing machine． This made it possible to produce great numbers of cigarettes very quickly, and it reduced the price．

Today cigarette smoking is a widespread habit． About forty-three percent of the adult men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly． It is encouraging to note, however, that millions of people have given up the smoking habit． Seventy-five percent of the male population and forty-six percent of the female population have smoked cigarettes at some time during their lives, but twenty-six percent of these men and eleven percent of the women have stopped smoking． The number of persons who have given up smoking is increasing．

Young children are trusting of commercial advertisements in the media, and advertisers have sometimes been accused of taking advantage of this trusting outlook The Independent Television Commission,regulator of television advertising, has criticized advertisers for “misleadingness”，in an effort to control advertisers,use of techniques that make it difficult for children to judge the true size, action ，performance, or construction of a toy．

Fantasy is one of the common techniques in advertising that could mislead young audience.In children's advertising, advertisers are more likely to include fantasy than advertisements aimed at adults．In a content analysis of Canadian television, the author Stephen Kline observed that nearly all commercials for character toys featured fantasy play．Children have strong imaginations and the use of fantasy brings their ideas to life, but children may not be adept enough to realize that what they are viewing is unreal Fantasy situations are frequently used to attract children's attention, particularly in food advertising．Advertisements for breakfast have been found to be especially fond of fantasy " techniques．Generally, there is uncertainty as to whether very young children can distinguish between fantasy and reality in advertising．

The use of pop stars such as singers and movie stars is common in advertising．The intention is for the positive qualities of the popular to be transferred to the advertised product and for the two to become linked in audience's mind．In children's advertising ，the pop stars are often vivid figures from popular cartoons．In recent years- the role of pop stars in advertising to children has often been combined with the concept of host selling．Host selling involves advertisements with regular programming in a way that makes it difficult to distinguish one from the other．Host selling occurs ，for example, when a children's show about a cartoon lion contains an advertisement in which the same lion promotes a breakfast．The psychologist Dale Kunkel shows that the practice of host selling has reduced children's ability to distinguish between advertising and the program material．Meanwhile，he also shows some other tricky advertisements．

　　 When a dirty and untidy grey cat showed up in the prison yard, I was one of the first to go out there and pet it. I hadn’t touched a cat or a dog in over 20 years. I spent at least 20 minutes, knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolled around, relaxed. When he was expressing outwardly, I was feeling inwardly. It was an amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching a life or another creature with something as simple as my care.

　　 Over the next few days, there were other prisoners responding to the cat. Every yard period, a group of prisoners gathered there. They stood around talking and taking turns petting the cat. These were guys you wouldn’t usually find talking to each other. Several times I saw an officer in the group, not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners. Bowls of milk and water appeared along with bread, wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keep the birds from getting it.

　　 The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape. People said that the cat came to the right place. He’s getting treated like a king. This was true, but as I watched I was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us. There was a lot of talk about what’s wrong with prisons in America. We need more programs. We need more psychologists or treatment of various kinds. Some may even talk about making prisons more kind. But I think what we really need is a chance to practice our own kindness. Not receive it, but give it. After more than two decades here, I know kindness is not a value that’s encouraged. It’s often thought of as a weakness. Instead, the culture encourages keeping your head down, minding your own business, and never letting yourself be weak.

　　 The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here. By simply saying, “I need some help here”, he did something important for us. He needed us. And we needed to be needed. I believe we all do.

       Due to the increasing number of violence acts produced in schools all over the world, more and more parents prefer to have their children educated at home rather than at school． This way they can ensure their safety and well-being, although teachers and school representatives are trying to improve the situation in schools by increasing the number of the persons in charge of the safety of the students．

       The main reason for violence acts are the films and cartoons that fill the children’s time． They want to do everything they watch on TV and never think of the consequences, and they may hurt a classmate or a teacher．

       On the other hand, parents are not fully satisfied with the children’s results obtained in classes and they consider private classes would have better results. When a teacher has to watch 30 students in class he can’t probably see what each of them is doing, how he is writing, or if he understands the explanations． At home the teacher can explain in details everything the child doesn’t understand as many times as he considers proper. And many times the child grows fond of the teacher at home, who becomes his best friend, and who helps him whenever he needs someone to talk to．     

       However, the best solution would be a mixture between the education received at school and that at home, because school makes children communicate and socialize． Keeping a child at home for fear there might happen something bad to him only makes the child’s character weak and prevents him from knowing what real life is． Staying in a crystal ball only does harm to the child．

       All in all, schools have been created to help children, not to harm them, so it’s best to keep children in these special places, where they learn, laugh, have fun and make new friends．

56． The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to ________．

       A． teach parents the ways to keep their children safe

       B． show solutions to developing children’s character

       C． explain the main reason for violence acts in schools

       D． analyze an education problem and give opinions

57． Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

       A． Advantages and Disadvantages of Private Classes

       B． Who is to Blame, Parents or Schools?   

       C． Which Is Better, School Study or Home Study?  

       D． The Relationship between Teachers and Children   

58． What does “a crystal ball” in the passage refer to?

       A． A toy that can be used for entertainment．                                 

       B． A safe and comfortable environment．

       C． A round object that is made of crystal．

       D． An obstacle that is hard to overcome．

59． We can infer from the passage that ________．

       A． violence TV programs have bad effects on children’s behavior

       B． the teacher at home is more patient than the teacher at school

       C． children today are weak from lack of sense of right and wrong

As I expected, Lois didn’t pass over the 　 48　 when she saw me the next day． She mentioned it directly, 　 49　 with empathetic consideration． She listened to my 　 50　 ． Just as I was ready to express my regrets, she brought my self-pity partly to a（n） 　 51　 ．

“It happened”, she said, “There’s nothing you can do to 　 52　 that． It happened． But it’s over now． It’s 　 53　 ． It’s in the past． You need to let it go, and move on．” And with that she returned her 　 54　 to her work, as if to say, “We’re done here．”

I beat myself up for weeks． At such times I need to remember those 　 55　 words: It’s over． It’s done． Let it go． And mostly, move on．
