                                           C                                                                                   Are you worried by the rising crime rate? If you are, you probably know that your house, possessions and person are increasingly in danger of suffering from great rise in the cases of burglary (夜盜) and attack.

 Figures show an ever-increasing crime rate, but it is only too easy to imagine "It will never happen to me". Unfortunately, statistics show that it really can happen to you and, if you live in a large city, you run twice the risk of being a victim（受害者）.

 Fortunately, there is something definite which you can do. Protect Alarms can help to protect your house with a burglar alarm system which is effective, simple to operate and easily affordable.

 You must remember that owning a burglar alarm is no indication that your house is packed with valuable possessions. It quite simply indicates to unwelcome visitors that yours is one house they will not break into easily, so they carry on to an unprotected house where their job is made a lot easier.

   Soong Mei-ling was one of the most well-known Chinese women of the twentieth century.

   Mei-ling was born in Hainan in 1898, the youngest daughter of Charlie Soong. At the age of 8, she was sent to the United States to go to school, where she did well. She graduated from Wellesley College in Massachusetts in 1917 with a degree in English Literature. Because of her education Mei-ling spoke excellent English.

   After graduation Mei-ling returned to China and she met Chiang Kai-shek(蔣介石) in 1920. She married him in 1927 after his divorce. During the war against Japan, Mei-ling acted as her husband’s interpreter and translator. She worked hard to promote the Chinese cause during the war, especially in the United States. In 1943 she became the first Chinese national and only the second woman to speak before the US Congress(國會).

After the defeat(潰敗) of her husband’s government in 1949, Mei-ling moved to Taiwan. She lived there until her husband’s death in 1975. She then emigrated to the USA and lived on her family’s estate(別墅) in Lattington, Long Island, near New York. She spent much of time painting.

    Making an advertisement for television often costs more than a movie. For example, a two-hour movie costs $6 million to make. A TV commercial （商業(yè)廣告）can cost more than $6000 a second. And that does not include cost of paying for air time(電視節(jié)目開始的時間). Which is more valuable, the program or the ad? In terms of money – and making money is what television is all about– the commercial is by far the more important.

    Research, market testing, talent, time and money—all come together to make us want to buy a product. No matter how bad we think a commercial is, it works. The sales of Charm went up once the ads began. TV commercials actually buy their way into our head. We, in turn, buy the product.

    And the ads work because so much time and attention are given to them. Here are some rules of commercial ad making. If you want to get the low middle-class buyer, make sure the announcer has a tough, manly voice. Put some people in the ad who work with their hands. If you want to sell to upper-class audience, make sure that the house, the furniture, and the hair style are the types that the group identifies(識別) with. If you want the buyer feel superior to the character selling the product, then make that person so stupid or silly that everyone will feel great about himself or herself.

     We laugh at commercials. We don’t think we pay that much attention to them. But facts show we are kidding（哄騙，嘲弄）ourselves. The making of a commercial that costs so much money is not kid stuff. It’s big, big business. And it’s telling us what to think, what we need, and what to buy. To put it simply, the TV commercial is a form of brainwashing.

40. TV commercials are more important than other programs to television because _______.

A. they bring in great profits(利潤)

B. they require a lot of money to make

C. they are not difficult to produce      

D. they attract more viewers than other programs

A. to persuade people to buy the product

B. to show how valuable the product is

C. to test the market value of the product

D. to make them as interesting as TV movies

42. From the rules set for making commercial ads, we can see that_______.

A. the lower-middle-class buyer likes to work with his hand

B. the more stupid the characters, the more buyers of the product

C. ad designers attract different people with different skills

D. an upper-class buyer is more interested in houses and furniture than a lower-middle-class buyer

43. It is believed by the writer that_______.

A. few people like to watch TV commercials

B. TV commercials are a good guide to buyers
