  I was six when I joined my father and two elder brothers at sunrise in the fields of Eufaula, Okla.  1   the time I was eight, I was helping Dad fix up old furniture.He gave me a cent for every nail I   2   out of old boards.

  I got my first   3   job, at JM’s Restaurant in town, when I was 12.My main responsibilities(职责)were   4   tables and washing dishes,   5   sometimes I helped cook.

  Every day after school I would   6   to JM’s and work until ten.Even on Saturdays I   7   from two until eleven.At that age it was difficult going to work and   8   my friends run off to swim or play.I didn’t necessarily like work, but I loved what working   9   me to have.Because of my   10   I was always the one buying when my friends and I went to the local Tastee Freez.This made me   11  

  Words that I was trust-worthy and hard-working   12   around town.A local clothing store offered me credit(赊账)  13   I was only in seventh grade.I immediately   14   a $68 sports coat and a $22 pair of shoes.I was   15   only 65 cents an hour, and I already owed the storekeeper $90!So I learned   16   the danger of easy credit.I paid it   17   as soon as I could.

  My first job taught me self-control, responsibility and brought me a   18   of personal satisfaction few of my friends had experienced.As my father,   19   worked three jobs once told me, “If you   20   sacrifice(奉献)and responsibility, there are not many things in life you can’t have.” How right he was.

You’re in a department store and you see a couple of attractive young women looking at a sweater. You listen to their conversation:

  “I can’t believe it—a Lorenzo Betrolla! They are almost impossible to find. Isn’t it beautiful?And it’s a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome”.

  They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater. It’s nice and the price is right. You’ve never heard of Lorenzo Bertolla, but those girls looked really stylish. They must know. So,you buy it. You never realize that those young women are employees of an advertising agency. They are actually paid to go from store to store, talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla clothes.

  Every day we notice what people are wearing, driving and eating. If the person looks cool,the product seems cool,too. This is the secret of undercover marketing. Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it.

  Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that don’t pay attention to traditional advertising. This is particularly true of the MTV generation—consumers between the age of 18 and 34. It is a golden group. They have a lot of money to spend, but they don’t trust ads.

  So advertising agencies hire young actors to “perform” in bars and other places where young adults go. Some people might call this practice misleading, but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative.“Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is decreasing”.

  However,one might ask what exactly is “real” about the young women pretending to be enthusiastic about a sweater. Advertising executives (主管) would say it’s no less real than flu ad. The difference is that you know an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something. You don’ t know a conversation you overhear is just a performance.

The two attractive young women were talking so that they could _______.

A. get the sweater at a lower price            B. be heard by people around

C. be admired by other shoppers              D. decide on buying the sweater

Lorenzo Bertolla is _______.

A. a very popular male singer                         B. an advertising agency

C. a clothing company in Rome               D. the brand name of a sweater

Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A. The two girls are in fact employed by the Lorenzo Bertolla Company.

B. The MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by ads.

C. Traditional advertising is becoming less effective because it’s too direct.

D. Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government.

Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. Two Attractive Shoppers                     B. Lorenzo Bertolla Sweatersk.&s~5*u

C. Ways of Advertising                                 D. Undercover Marketing
