There are stock markets (股票市場) in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris,
London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or company. And each share means certain ownership(所有權) of a factory or company.
Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they
have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks to try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as
part of their plan to save money.
Of course, investing (投資) money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money.
No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may
do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and the investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or company does a good job, the stock may still go down.
Going to the stock market is often like gambling (賭博). All want to make money by
“gambling’ in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are ready to “gamble”. Indeed, the stock market is an attractive(吸引人的) but complex part of the business world.
1.If you are a good investor, ________ in the stock market.
A. you can always make money
B. you can tell exactly when the stock goes up or down
C. you may sometimes lose money
D. your gambling is always safe
2.The passage mainly wants to tell us________.
A. how to buy or sell shares
B. the stock market is like gambling
C. a general idea of stock market
D. investing money in the stock market is not the safest way

" Vi-Lasata!I can't believe it--a Vi-Lasata!” —You see some attractive young ladies looking at a sweater in a department store and you listen to their conversation:
“ Vi-Lasata is almost impossible to find. Isn't it beautiful? And it's a lot cheaper than the one Terry bought in Rome."
When they leave, you go over to see this unbelievable sweater. It's nice and the price is right.You've never heard of Vi-Lasata, 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 Vi-Lasata 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 （暗中影響的）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 “thumb 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 cheating, but marketing director Jonathan Ressler calls it creativity. "Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is falling."
However, one might ask what exactly is "real" about of young women pretending to be enthusiastic about a sweater? Advertising agent would say it's no less real than an ad. The difference is that you know an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something. You don't know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.
1.Vi-Lasata is __________.
A. a very popular department store
B. the brand name of a sweater
C. a clothing company in Rome
D. an advertising agency
2.The 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
3.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. Traditional advertising is becoming less effective as it's too direct.
B. The “ thumb generation” tends to be more easily influenced by ads.
C. The two girls are in fact clerks in the Vi-Lasata Company.
D. Undercover marketing is surely against the law in that country.
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Performance in Shops B. Vi-Lasata Sweaters
C. Ways of Advertising D. Undercover Marketing

Where we live, on the eastern shore of Maryland, the gentle waters run in and out like fingers slimming at the tips.
The Canada geese know this place, as do the white swans and the ducks. In autumn, they come home for the winter. Once or twice each year, snow and frozen rain move into the area. When this happens, if the river is at its narrowest, there is a freeze which hardens the water to ice.
One morning, a friend of mine set the breakfast table beside the huge window, which overlooked the Tred Avon River. Suddenly she leaned forward and cried out, “There is a goose out there.”
We saw the figure of a large Canada goose, very still, its wings folded tight to its sides, its feet frozen into the ice.
Then from the dark skies, she saw a line of swans. They floated from the top of the sky downward and at last landed on the ice. My friend was on her feet now, with one hand against her mouth, unbelieving. As the swans surrounded the frozen goose, she feared that life it still had might be pecked(啄) out by those great swan bills.
Instead, those bills began to work on the ice. The long necks were lifted and curved down, again and again. It went on for a long time. At last, the goose’s head was lifted. Its body was pulled. Then the goose was free and stood on the ice. And the swans stood in the air watching. Then, as if it had cried, “I cannot fly.” Four of the swans came down around it. Their powerful beaks chipped off the ice held in the feathers. Slowly, the goose spread its wings as far as they would go, and moved slowly into the sky.
This is a true story. I just think of it in the bad moment, and from it comes only one hopeful question: If so for birds, why not for man?
1.Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Why Not for Man? B. Graceful Swans
C. Swans’ Brave Act D. I Just Couldn’t Believe It!
2.What happened to the Canada goose?
A. It was deserted by other geese.
B. It was stuck in the ice.
C. It was wounded and couldn’t fly.
D. It was lost in the water.
3.At first the author’s friend was worried that________.
A. the swans would not help the Canada goose
B. she didn’t care about this matter any more
C. the swans wouldn’t identify with the Canada goose
D. the swans would peck the Canada goose to death
4.What did the swans do when they saw the Canada goose couldn’t fly?
A. They chipped off the ice held in its feathers.
B. They waited patiently for the ice held in its feathers to melt.
C. They came down and lifted it up to the sky together.
D. They stayed with it and protected it.
