阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在正确选项上画勾。
We buried Donald Brown last May. He was murdered by four men who wanted to rob the supermarket manager he was protecting. Partolman Brown was 61 years old. In just six months he and his wife had planned to retire to Florida. Now there will be no retirement in the sun, and she is alone.
Donald Brown was the second police officer to die since I became Police Commissioner of Boston in 1972. The first was Detective John Schroeder, shot in a pawnshop (当铺) robbery in November 1970. John Schroeder was the brother of Walter Schroeder, who was killed in a bank robbery in 1970. Their names are together on the honor roll in Police Headquarters.
At least two of these police officers were shot by a handgun, the kind almost anyone can buy nearly everywhere for a few dollars. Ownership of handguns has become so widespread that this weapon is no longer merely the instrument of crime; it is now a cause of violent crime. Of the 11 Boston police officers killed since 1962, seven were killed with handguns; of the 18 wounded by guns since 1962, 17 were shot with handguns.
Gun advocates are fond of saying that guns don't kill, people do. But guns do kill. Half of the people who commit suicide do so with handguns. Fifty-four percent of the murders committed in 1972 were committed with handguns.
No one can convince me, after returning from patrolman Brown's funeral, that we should allow people to own handguns. I know that many Americans feel deeply and honestly that they have a right to own and enjoy guns. I am asking that they give them up. I am not asking for registration or licensing, or the outlawing of cheap guns. I am saying that no private citizen, whatever his claim, should possess a handgun. Only police officers should.
1．The suggestion the author presents in the passage is that ________.
[ ]
A．handguns are the cause of violent crime
B．handguns are a dangerous weapon
C．American people's right to own and enjoy guns should be respected
D．only police officers should possess guns
2．In paragraph 1, the tone of the author is ________.
[ ]
3．According to the author, which is true of handguns?
[ ]
A．They don't kill.
B．We should not allow people to own handguns.
C．Anyone can easily buy a handgun at a very high price.
D．Handguns can't be the cause of violent crime.
4．The passage is mainly aimed to ________.
[ ]
A．persuade the government
B．describe police officers' death
C．tell the robbers' means to kill policeman
D．explain means of people's possession of guns

No one can avoid being influenced by advertisements．Much as we may pride ourselves on our good taste, we are no longer free to choose the things we want, for advertising exerts a subtle(巧妙的)influence on us．In their efforts to persuade us to buy this or that product, advertisers have made a close study of human nature and have classified all our little weaknesses．
Advertisers discovered years ago that all of us love to get something for nothing．An advertisement which begins with the magic word FREE can rarely go wrong．These days, advertisers not only offer free samples but free cars, free houses, and free trips round the world as well．They devise hundreds of competitions which will enable us to win huge sums of money．Radio and television have made it possible for advertisers to capture the attention of millions of people in this way．
During a radio program, a company of biscuit manufacturers once asked listeners to bake biscuits and send them to their factory．They offered to pay ＄10 a pound for the biggest biscuit baked by a listener．The response to this competition was tremendous．Before long, biscuits of all shapes and sizes began arriving at the factory．One lady brought in a biscuit on a wheelbarrow．It weighed nearly 500 pounds．A little later, a man came along with a biscuit which occupied the whole boot of his car．All the biscuits that were sent were carefully weighed．The largest was 713 pounds．It seemed certain that this would win the prize．But just before the competition closed, a lorry arrived at the factory with a truly colossal biscuit which weighed 2400 pounds．It had been baked by a college student who had used over 1000 pounds of flour, 800 pounds of sugar, 200 pounds of fat, and 400 pounds of various other ingredients．It was so heavy that a crane had to be used to remove it from the lorry．The manufacturers had to pay more money than they had anticipated, for they bought the biscuit from the student for ＄24 000．
