Advertising in America offers some great advantages to consumers. For example, in order to keep prices low through mass production, companies must have a mass market for their products. Mass advertising creates mass markets. Producers cannot afford to develop new products, put them on the market and wait for customers to discover them. This would take too long. Demand for some products must be created. This is done through advertising.
But advertising sometimes makes it difficult for consumers to make wise decisions. The fact is that when people are constantly flooded with messages through the mass media persuading them to buy particular products, many respond by buying them.
Advertising is designed to influence an individual to buy a product. Sellers often study human behavior to discover what will convince consumers to buy a certain item. This reason for buying is called a buying motive.
Buying motives are usually broken down into two categories: rational and emotional. Rational buying motives include the desire to save money, the desire for comfort, or the desire for good workmanship. Emotional buying motives include buying out of fear, wanting to be liked, and wanting to have something better than your friends have.
Emotional appeals are found in most consumer advertising today. Certain cars promise to make the driver feel "younger" and " freer". Shoes promise to make the buyer's whole life "springier". Life insurance policies promise to take the "care out of living".
Most consumers believe that they are not easily influenced by emotional appeals. However, corporations that sell consumer products obviously think differently. They spend many millions of dollars every day on radio, television, newspaper and magazine ads that use these appeals.
1. It can be inferred from the passage that one of the advantages of advertising for consumers is that ________.
A. it can create a big demand for consumer goods
B. the mass market created by it leads to low prices
C. producers can introduce new products to consumers
D. it helps consumers discover new products

A. many advertisements are too difficult for them to understand
B. they are afraid to be taken in by dishonest advertisements
C. mass advertising offers them a range of good and cheap products
D. they are confused by the quantity of advertisements promoting it
3. According to the passage, a toothpaste ad promising that people who use the product will make a lot of friends is an example of an ad that appeals to __________ .
A. rational buying motives B. the consumer's commonsense
C. emotional buying motives D. the desire for a good product
4. The reason why companies spend enormous amounts of money on advertising is that ________ .
A. they believe people can be influenced to buy a certain produce
B. it takes a lot of advertising to convince people to buy a certain product
C. most consumers are not easily influenced by emotional appeals
D. advertising based on emotional appeals are very effective
5. The best title for this passage would be ________ .
A. Advertising can create demand B. The advantages of advertising

One of the most popular activities enjoyed by Americans is spending time in forests and walking along paths through the country.This activity,called hiking,has led to the creation of paths throughout the United States.

Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family,and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck.I'm not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don't come into play because they do.Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence,and that's just the reality of how life is.
However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in addition to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practising.To become great at certain things,it'll require even more time,time that most people won't put in.

This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don't enjoy what you do,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.

When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.
Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you're not willing to put in the time and work,don't expect to receive any rewards.Consistent, hard work won't guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
1.Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.
A.the reasons for success
B.the meaning of success
C.the standards of success
D.the importance of success
2.Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ________.
A.work makes one feel pain
B.one tends to enjoy his work
C.one gives up his work easily
D.it takes a lot of time to succeed
3.What is the main theme of the passage?
A.Having a goal is vital to success.
B.Being good is different from being great.
C.One cannot succeed without time and practice.
D.Luck,talent and family help to achieve success.
4.What is the main theme of the passage?
