A child’s birthday party doesn’t have to be a hassle; it can be a basket of fun, according to Beth Anaclerio, an Evaston mother of two, ages 4 and 18 months.
“Having a party at home usually requires a lot of running around on the part of the parents, and often the birthday boy or girl gets lost in wild excitement. But it really doesn’t have to be that way,” said Anaclerio. Last summer, Anaclerio and her friend Jill Carlisle, a Northbrook mother of a 2-year –old, founded a home party-planning business called “A Party in a Basket.” Their goal is to help parents and children share in the fun part of party planning, like choosing the subject or making a cake, while they take care of everything.
Drawing on their experiences as mothers, they have created 10 ready-to-use, home party packages. Everything a family needs to plan a party, except the cake and ice cream, is delivered to the home in a large basket.
“Our parties are aimed for children 2 to 10, ” Anaclerio said, “and they’re very interactive （互動(dòng)） and creative in that they build a sense of drama based on a subject. For example, at the Soda Shoppe party the guests become waiters and waitresses and build wonderful ice cream creations.”
The standard $ 200 package for eight children includes a basket filled with invitations, gifts, games and prizes, paper goods, a party planner and the like. For more information, call Anaclerio at 708-864-6584 or Carlisle at 708-205-9141.
小題1:The main purpose of writing this text is ________.
A．to share information about party planning
B．to introduce the joys of a birthday party
C．to announce a business plan
D．to sell a service
小題2:The most important idea behind the kind of party planning described here is that ________.
A．parents are spared the trouble of sending invitations
B．guests play a part in the preparation of a party
C．it brings parents and children closer together
D．it provides a subject of conversation
小題3:What does the underlined word “hassle”(paragraph 1) probably mean ?
A．a(chǎn) situation causing difficulty or trouble
B．a(chǎn) plan requiring careful thought
C．a(chǎn) party designed by specialists
D．a(chǎn) demand made by guests
小題4:Which of the following is most likely to be a party planner?

Kalle Lasn was in a supermarket parking lot one afternoon when he had an experience that changed his life．In order to shop at the store, he needed to put money into the shopping cart to use it．Annoyed that he had to "pay to shop," Lasn jammed the coin into the cart so that it wouldn't work．It was an act of rebellion—the first of many—for Lasn．
Born in Estonia, Kalle Lasn moved to Australia as a young man and then later to Japan, where he founded a marketing research firm in Tokyo．Eventually, Lasn moved to Canada and for several years produced documentaries （紀(jì)錄片） for public television．In the late 1980s, Lasn made an advertisement that spoke out against the logging industry and the deforestation going on in the Pacific Northwest．When he tried to show his ad on TV, though, no station in this area would give him airtime．In response, Lasn and a colleague founded Adbusters Media Foundation, a company for the "Human right to communicate．
Adbusters produces magazine, newspaper, and TV ads with a social message．Many use humor and irony to make their points: In one, for example, a man chain smokes a brand of cigarettes called "Hope"．In another, a child is dressed in an outfit used in fast-food ads．Next to the child is a note from its mother telling the restaurant to leave her child alone．
Adbusters also has a magazine and a web site, the Culture Jammers Network, whose members include students, artists, and activists as well as educators and businesspeople interested in social change．Many of these "culture jammers" are working to raise awareness about different social issues by hosting events like "Buy Nothing Day" , " No Car Day" and "TV Turnoff Week" ．Lasn and his partners hope these events will encourage people to think about questions such as;
·What kinds of things are we being encouraged to buy by the media?
·Should cars be our primary means of transportation?
·How are television and radio being used now? How could we be using them?
Some culture jammers are using other methods to challenge how people think．Some pretend to be shoppers．They move items in stores from one shelf to another making it difficult for people to find things easily．Other culture jammers break into large company well sites and jam them so that they become unusable．The goal in both cases ia to prevent "Business as usual" and to gel people to ask themselves questions such as "Why am I shopping here?" or "Why should I buy this product?"
Lasn and members of the Culture Jammers Network want to make people aware of social issues, but they also believe it's important to think of solutions, too．"A lot of people tell you everything that's wrong but they never say much about how to fix these problems," says Lasn．"But there is plenty we can do．If you start despairing, you have lost everything．"
Though many TV stations still won't show Adbusters' " uncommercials" , some cable TV stations have started to．People all over the world have joined the Culture Jammers Network and are doing their part to promote social change．
小題1:What does the underlined word "rebellion" in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A．a(chǎn)rgumentB．violence
C．oppositionD．protection
小題2:What's the main point of the ad for "Hope" cigarettes?
A．Smoking can help to remove your worries and make you hopeful．
B．Hopefully, the bad taste of the cigarette can help you to quit smoking．
C．You are hopeless at abandoning the habit of smoking．
D．Smoking can ruin you if you are hopelessly addicted to it．
小題3:Some culture jammers break into websites in order to ________．
A．a(chǎn)sk people to be thoughtful consumers．
B．help make the companies better known．
C．encourage people to think less and buy less
D．challenge how people react to sudden changes
小題4:It can be inferred from the passage ________．
A．Adbusters Media Foundation was founded to fight against deforestation
B．More and more people will know about and even become culture jammers
C．The Culture Jammers Network is made up of annoying trouble makers
D．People can see some of Adbusters ads on TV stations
小題5:Which of the following best describes what Lasn has done?
