There are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. How? Packaging （包裝）is the silent but persuading salesman.

There on the shelves, each bottle, can, box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer（消費者）, so that is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect 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 is very good for your body. And the word “green” today can keep food prices going up.

Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. That’s why the round yellow M signs of McDonald’s are inviting to both young and old.

This new consumer response（反應）to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people buy to satisfy both body and soul.

60．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

61．If a package or a product is round in shape, it can ________.

       A．bring excitement to the consumers  B．a(chǎn)ttract the consumers’ attention

       C．catch the eye movement of the consumers   D．produce a happy and peaceful feeling

62． “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 healthy

63．It can be inferred from the passage that V8 is a kind of ________.

       A．vegetable dish  B．healthy juice    C．iced drink D．red vegetable

She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last forever. But, at nearly 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.
The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo da Vinci in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre museum(盧浮宮博物館)where it is housed.
“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,” the museum said. Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world’s most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state.
Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, many attracted by the mystery of her smile. “It is very interesting that when you’re not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University. “It’s because direct vision(視覺)is excellent at picking up detail, but less suited to looking at shadows. Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”
However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile. Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France’s King Francis I in 1519.
In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he planned to return it to Italy. The painting was sent back to France two years later.
During World War II, French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.
Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.
【小題1】 The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means the Mona Lisa ________.

A．is losing its valueB．is being damaged after so many years
C．is getting more valuable with years passingD．will rot away
【小題2】 Experts haven’t any repairs on the Mona Lisa because______.
1.      
A．it is now in a poor chemical state
2.		B．they don’t know how to replace the wooden panel
3.		C．they don’t have the materials Da Vinci used
4.		D．they are afraid it will be done further damage.
【小題3】The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen_______.
A．by indirect visionB．a(chǎn)t a distance
C．by direct visionD．in shadows
【小題4】 From the last paragraph, we can infer that______.
A．many interesting stories have been written about the Mona Lisa
B．people are interested in the stories about the Mona Lisa.
C．some mysteries still remain to be solved about the Mona Lisa.
D．Many more stories will be told about the Mona Lisa.

In some parts of the United States, farming is easy. But farming has always been difficult in the northeastern corner of the country, which is called New England.

New England has many trees and thin, rocky soil. Anyone who has wanted to start a new farm there has had to work very hard. The first job has been cutting down the trees. The new job has been digging out the roots of the trees. Then the farmer has had the difficult job of removing stones from his land. This work of removing stones never really ends, because every winter more stones appear. They come up through the thin soil from the rocks below. Farmers have to keep removing stones from the fields. Even today, farms which have been worked on for two hundred years still keep producing more stones. That is why stone walls are used instead of fences (籬笆) in New England fields. The stone walls are not high and a man can easily climb over them. However, they keep the farmer’s cows from joining those of his neighbor’s.

1.Where is New England?

A. In England.    B. In North America.

C. In South America.  D. In Australia.

2.Why do stones keep appearing?

A. Because the farmers keep digging them out.

B. Because there are rocks below the soil and the soil is too thin.

C. Because there are no trees at all.

3. Why do the farmers build stone walls instead of fences?

A. Because the stone walls are not high and a person can easily climb over them.

B. Because the stone walls can stop the cows from joining their neighbor’s.

Dinner parties are out of date. Alumni (畢業(yè)生,校友) album are old-fashioned. School leaving is taking on a new turn：it is going online! Graduating students at Qinghua University are saving all their joys and sorrows from university on a CD. Some are setting up their alumni records online, such as Chinaren.com and 5406.net. With computer usage and Internet access becoming even more popular, students are throwing away the traditional graduation book. Instead they are using alumni books online, in CDs or disks, electrolyzing(電解) their graduation in the e-age.

"It is much easier and safer to save." Xu Ziguo, a civil-engineer-major at Qinghua University said. Like his class, most of Qinghua's to-be graduates are using the CD alumni records and online association. Xu said CD records can save more than the actual books. Photos and videos on school activities and normal campus life, and messages may be all included in the thin plastic with the help of a CD-Writer. "Everything is so lively when I watch it, just like what is happening on campus," Xu said. Another student at the Renmin University of China, Lu Yangzhen said her class saved all the memorable messages on a disk. They use a common chat room online to communicate after graduation. Many classes will keep their homepages on campus for future communication, Lu said.

Dotcom companies are also seizing the opportunity to get more clicks. Chinaren.com said it provided improved services for the users. One service is to send group emails, meaning if a user sends an email to one address, all his or her classmates can get it at the same time. But what if the Dotcom company breaks down one day? Xu said they had left a "backup". That is to use the old way with a person working as the liaison.

55. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

57. What kind of service is provided by Dotcom companies?

A. If a user sends an email to one of his or her classmates, the others can get it at the same time.

B. If a user sends an email to a certain address, all his or her classmates can get it at the same time.
