Shopping is not as simple as you may think! There are all sorts of tricks at play each time we reach out for that particular brand (商標) of product on the shelf.
Colouring, for example, varies according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packaged (包裝) in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colours. Ice cream packets are often blue and expensive goods, like chocolates, are gold or silver.
When some kind of pain killer was brought out recently, researchers found that the colours turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective. Eventually, it came on the market in a dark blue and white package—blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.
The size of a product can attract a shopper. But quite often a bottle doesn’t contain as much as it appears to.
It is believed that the better-known companies spend, on average, 70 per cent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging!
The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The founder of Pears soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to promote(推銷)  their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takes a genius (天才) to sell it.”
小題1:Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text?
A．The cost of its package.B．The price of the product.
C．The colour of its package.D．The brand name of the product.
小題2:The underlined part “the colours turned the customers off”(in Para. 3 ) means that the colours _____.
A．attracted the customers strongly
B．had weak effects on the customers
C．tricked the customers into shopping
D．caused the customers to lose interest
小題3:Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales?
A．The way to promote goods.
B．The discovery of a genius.
C．The team to produce a good product.
D．The brand name used by successful producers.
小題4:Which of the following would be the best title for this text?
A．Choice of Good ProductsB．Disadvantages of Products
C．Effect of Packaging on ShoppingD．Brand Names and Shopping Tricks

It’s a nightmare for Huazhong University of Science and Technology （HUST）: within a week，two students committed suicide by jumping off dorm buildings．對于整個華中科技大學來說，這簡直就是場噩夢：一周之內，兩名學生在宿舍跳樓自殺。
Officials from the university are reluctant to give interviews．校方官員們不愿接受采訪。
“We had a hard time calming down students who were shocked at the suicides,” said Zhang Jingyuan，one official of HUST．
“Media coverage may arouse some students’ negative emotions again．Suicide can be contagious,” Zhang said．他說，“媒體的報道將會再次引發(fā)學生的消極情緒，自殺是會傳染的�！�
The university reacted promptly to the first suicide on October 23．對于今年10月23號發(fā)生的第一起自殺事件，華中科技大學迅速做出應急措施。
Advisors and class leaders conducted dorm-to-dorm checks to find students suffering depression．Then psychologists offered one-on-one counseling to them．輔導員和班長們走訪了每個宿舍，找出遭遇抑郁的學生。然后，心理咨詢師會為這些學生提供一對一的心理咨詢。
Notice boards publicizing tips for identifying peers’ mental problems and offering help were set up in front of dorm buildings．Leaflets carrying similar information were handed out to each dorm．宿舍樓前豎起一些布告欄，為同學們普及關于如何發(fā)現身邊人遭遇心理問題并提供幫助的小貼士。印有類似內容的小冊子也被分發(fā)給每個寢室。
However，the second suicide came seven days later．然而，七天后，第二起自殺事件發(fā)生了。
Both students were described as men of few words．Their schoolmates didn’t see anything to indicate suicide．據周圍人描述，這兩名學生都很少言寡語。他們的同學都沒有覺察到任何自殺前的征兆。
Zhang revealed that the two students had been bothered by mental disorders．But the school didn’t know this until the students’ close friends outside school and their parents unveiled the truth after the suicides．章勁元透露，這兩名學生曾經飽受心理疾病的困擾。但是學校對此并不知情，他們校外的好友和家長也是在自殺事件發(fā)生后才說出實情。
According to Zhang，there are only three full-time counselors working in the university’s counseling center for its 60,000 students．He complained: “It’s unrealistic to rely only on counselors to detect students’ mental problems．”據章勁元說，全校共有六萬名學生，但學校的心理咨詢中心只有三位全職心理咨詢師。他抱怨說：“僅僅依靠心理咨詢師來察覺學生的心理問題，這是不現實的。”
Effective prevention comes from long-term education for life instead of temporary intervention to meet an emergency，said Hu Yi’an．Hu delivers a course of lectures on life and death at Guangzhou University．He worries that universities have paid little attention to education for life．有效的預防來自于長期的生命教育，而并非遭遇緊急狀況時的臨時干預，胡毅安（音譯）說。他在廣州大學教授以生命和死亡為主題的課程。他為各大高校給予生命教育的關注少之又少而擔憂。
“Education for life helps students respect and love life so they won’t resort to ending their lives when they have difficulties,” said Hu．“生命教育可以幫助學生尊重、熱愛生命，這樣一來，當他們遇到困難的時候就不會選擇結束生命了,” 胡毅安說。
According to Hu，the principles can be incorporated into everyday teaching．胡毅安還表示，這些觀念可以融入到日常教學中去。
Hu is also concerned that some universities are conveying discriminatory message that will hold back students from seeking help．胡老師也很擔心一些大學傳遞出帶有歧視性的信息會使得學生們不愿去尋求幫助。
When HUST conducted the dorm-to-dorm examination，students with poor academic performance were paid special attention．In March，Peking University also released a controversial policy，which required teachers to have a chat with students “with biased thinking”．當華中科技大學校方挨個宿舍進行走訪時，學習成績較差的學生也被給予了特別關照。三月份，北京大學也推行了一項備受爭議的政策，該新規(guī)要求教師們要找那些學生中的“激進分子”談話。
However，Hu suggested that students step out of their comfort zone to seek real-life communication．
小題1:The underlined word “reluctant” in paragraph 2 probably means “       ”．
A．willingB．unhappyC．refusedD．decided
小題2:Which measure the university took to the first suicide is incorrect?
A．Conducting checks to find out the students’ depression．
B．Offering counseling to the students．
C．Setting up notice boards publicizing tips for identifying peers’ mental problems and offering help．
D．Handing out leaflets to each student．
小題3:Which of the following is right according to the text?

B．HUST didn’t respond to the first suicide．
C．What the university about the suicide was a success．

小題4:What’s the main idea of the passage?

B．What can we do to prevent the student’s suicide?
C．The reasons why the students committed suicide．
D．The dangers in the universities in China．

There are thousands of things to be sold that are of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are good enough for you to have a try. How packaging(包裝)is the quiet but persuading salesman?  
There on the shelves，each bottle, can and box has been carefully designed to speak to the inner self of the consumer(消費者), so that he is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied on this and found that the look of the package has a great influence on the “quality” of the product and on how well it sells, because “Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products,” as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers’ feeling for packaging, noticed.
Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years，the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it’s very good for your body. And the word “green" today can keep food prices going up.
Shapes are another attraction．Circles often mean happiness, because they are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. That’s why the round yellow M sings of McDonald’s are inviting to both young and old.
This new consumer response(反應)to the colors and shapes of packages reminds(提醒)producers and sellers that people buy to meet the needs of both body and heart.
小題1:According to the passage, ______ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the  product.
A．the pleasing color of the package
B．the special taste of the product
C．the strange shape of the package
D．the belief in the product
小題2:It can be inferred(推測)from the passage that V8 is a kind of        .
A．vegetable dishB．healthy juice
C．hard drinkD．red vegetable
小題3:“And the word ‘green’ today can keep food prices going up” This sentence  
suggests that consumers today are       .
A．starting to notice the importance of new food
B．enjoying the beauty of nature more than before
C．beginning to like green vegetables
D．paying more attention to their health
小題4:What’s the best title of the passage?
A．Colors and Shapes
B．Packaging Can Talk
C．The response to the packages
D．What is packing?

In the professional world, oral communication skills in the workplace, which is the art of using speech to convey information, thoughts and feeling to others, is important for the success of any organizations.
The 21st century has been considered to be an era of communication. The way we convey our thoughts is of great importance in building relationships. In the workplace, there are employees of diverse cultural and educational backgrounds. This makes team working on a difficult task, but with a clear understanding of the task to be achieved, all members work towards the same goal. Misunderstandings, conflicts and differences in opinions are easily managed when there is a clear flow of communication between team members.
With proper communication, a close relationship and trust build among the employees, therefore promoting excellent working conditions. An atmosphere of support and cooperation is promoted by properly conveying expectations of the management team to the employees and vice – versa (相反的情況). Therefore, developing oral communication skills is important to success in life ahead.
How to improve oral communication? In the business world, individuals are expected to be confident about their beliefs and ideas. Therefore, they must include words like “in my opinion”, “as far as I know”. While improving skills on oral communication, people in a workplace must learn the art of listening. In addition, one must also have a positive body language during conversations. A person with a smiling face and positive attitude can raise the spirits of everyone around him. When we’re talking to someone, we must give the other person an opportunity to talk as it improves our listening ability.
Communication is an art and it can be improved by working on it constantly. Since it is not an overnight work, one needs to learn it by observing people who are good at it.

My 17-year-old daughter went off to college and having her away from home brought back memories of watching Peter Pan when she was little. In the classic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs Darling puts her children into bed. As she turns off the last of the night lights, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says, “Dear night lights, protect my sleeping children.” As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.
It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting (適應) well after a short period of homesickness. For us, though, it’s another story. Like most parents, I love checking in on my children at night. But now she’s gone, and I find nighttimes the hardest. I miss her most at night.
In my neighborhood, most of the parents whose kids are off to college are dealing with similar melancholy. My husband is filled with anxiety. One friend talked about getting this sick feeling in her stomach as she prepared for the college drop-off. We complained that many of us were too busy to truly enjoy being with our children while we had them.
For us moms, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched the character Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhood as he prepares to leave for college. And it’s not just “first-time” parents like me. Two moms who have kids already well into college said the separation didn’t get any easier. “You feel like something has been taken away from inside you,” said one of them.
I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughter adjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cellphone close to me in bed and text my daughter goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to think that messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.
小題1:The writer was deeply impressed by the scene in Peter Pan because ___________.
A．she watched the scene with her daughter
B．the scene was very exciting and interesting
C．the scene taught her and her daughter a good lesson
D．the scene showed a mother’s deep love for her children
小題2:After he daughter went to college, the writer ___________.
A．didn’t get used to the change for a long time
B．often cried as she missed her daughter so much
C．realized she hadn’t done enough for the daughter
D．failed to have a good sleep every night
小題3:What is the underlined word “melancholy” in Paragraph 3 similar in meaning to?
A．Happiness.B．Anger.C．Sadness.D．Excitement.
小題4:We can infer that watching Toy Story 3 ___________.
A．made the writer know her daughter didn’t want to go to college
B．improved the relationship between the writer and her daughter
C．helped the writer realize how important education was
D．made the writer miss her daughter even more
