The pair decided to begin a strange, year-long project to battle their debt. The men, Ross Harper and Edward Moyse, set up the website BuyMyFace. last October as a way to get rid of the 50,000 they shared as student loans. The idea behind the project was to earn money by selling their faces as advertising space every day for a year. Each day, they advertise a different business by painting the brands name or logo onto their faces and upload the pictures to the homepage of BuyMyFace., adding a link to the advertisers website and including a short piece of text about it. After they paint their faces and publish them on the website, Harper and Moyse go out to highly populated areas such as music festivals and theme parks to maximize their faces exposure. They hope more people will pay attention to the advertisements on their faces. At this time, Harper and Moyse have advertised their faces for over four months without skipping a day and theyre more than halfway to their goal. Though they first started charging a minimum of about 1.60 per pany, the prices have risen as their popularity increases. For advertising space during the rest of April, they range between 250 and 750. Terri L. Rittenburg, associate professor of marketing at the University of Wyoming, said that she had heard of people tattooing (紋身) logos on themselves before, but this idea is much better. According to her, at first the idea would be new and unusual and attract attention. People are interested in this particular style of advertisement and would like to try what they advertise. But she is unsure how long it would last. At least for now, panies that have bought Harper and Moyses faces have written positive ments on the pairs website. “We had a three percent increase in website traffic on the very day and for two days more afterwards,” said one of the panies.24.At BuyMyFace.,you can _.A. enjoy a good chat with your friends B. buy everything you want to have C. share experiences in doing business D. get information on certain goods25. Harper and Moyse go to highly populated areas to _.A. offer their help B.make more friends C. show their faces D. raise more money26. We can infer from the passage that the two young men _.A.get on well with their project B. work hard except on holidaysC.plan to open their own pany D.may close their website in future27. Why does the mens idea of advertising prove to work?A. Because an expert has highly praised them.B. Because people find it unique and appealing.C. Because the products they advertise are reliable.D. Because they receive great help from businesses.CAre Happy Meals Really Happy? Dont we all know a “Happy Meal” when we see one-the famous boxed meal that includes a hamburger, kid-sized French fries, fruits and milk, served with a toy thats extremely popular with children who love to collect them? A Happy Meal is a form of kids meal sold at a certain fast-food chain since 1979. A toy is included in the meal, both of which are usually contained in a box or paper bag. However, collectors of these little toys will not get them any longer, since the pany will replace toys with books and each of theses books will mainly pass on nutritional messages. Happy Meals are extremely popular with kids, especially for their collectable toys, when you consider that over 1.3 billion of these packages are sold each year. These packages have been very controversial. Health supporters believe that drawing kids to these meals with toys is a clever way of promoting unhealthy food choices. They see it as an advertising a strategy of “catching its customers young”-a move that has paid off very well for the fast-food pany. Child development experts say that food habits get formed in children by age six and continue through to their adult life. Fatty and sugary foods such as those served in Happy Meals are believed to play a big role in growing health problems such as obesity and diabetes. Public health care costs have gone up and untold amounts of money have been spent on coping with these health problems. On November 2, xx, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors passed a law requiring that childrens meals sold in restaurants must meet certain nutritional standards before they could be sold with toys, to overe the problem of childhood obesity-in other words, the State of California tried to ban the toys in Happy Meals. However, it was strongly opposed by some as being heavy-handed, and the ban was thrown out by the government. While some people believe that the fast-food pany, with its large following of children, can create a powerful message through the books, others believe its actions are contradictory. Anyway, the pany is trying to spread the message of nutrition while it is serving food that is anything but healthy.28. The aim of the question raised in Paragraph 1 is_.A.give a surprise to the toy lovers B.get readers attention to the articleC.call on readers to buy boxed meals D.make readers think about the answer29. Books will be added into Happy Meals to _.A.introduce the use of the toys B.increase the cost of the mealsC.help kids learn about nutrition D.spread the message of fast food30. According to Paragraph 3, Happy Meals_.A. have achieved the desired resultB. help the customers stay youngC. cost more money than ordinary mealsD. receive approval from health supporters31. What is the authors opinion about Happy Meals?A. They bring much fun to children.B. They teach children a lot about nutritionC. They do no actual good to childrens health.D. They are popular with the young and the old.D Is any economist so dull as to criticize Christmas? At first glance, the holiday season in western economies seems a treat for those concerned with such vagaries(奇思遐想)as GDP growth. After all, everyone is spending; in America, retailers make 25% of their yearly sales and 60% of their profits between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Even so, economists find something to worry about in the nature of the purchases being made. Much of the holiday spending is on gifts for others. At the simplest level, giving gifts involves the giver thinking of something that the recipient would like-he tries to guess her preferences, as economists say-and then buying the gift and delivering it. Yet this guessing of preferences is not easy; indeed, it is often done badly. Every year, ties go unworn and books unread. And even if a gift is enjoyed, it may not be what the recipient would have bought if they had spent the money themselves. Interested in this mismatch between wants and gifts, in 1993 Joel Waldfogel, then an economist at Yale University, sought to estimate the difference in dollar terms. In a study, he asked students two questions at the end of a holiday season: first, estimate the total amount paid(by the givers) for all the holiday gifts you received; second, apart from the sentimental value of the items, if you did not have them, how much would you be willing to pay to get them? His results were gloomy: on average, a gift was valued by the recipient well below the price paid by the giver. In addition, recipients may not know their own preferences very well. Some of the best gifts, after all, are unexpected items that you would never have thought of buying, but which turn out to be especially well picked. And preferences can change. So by giving a jazz CD, for example, the giver may be encouraging the recipient to enjoy something that was ignored before. This, a desire to build skills, is possibly the hope held by many parents who ignore their childrens desires for video games and buy them books instead. Finally, there are items that a recipient would like to receive but not purchase. If someone else buys them, however, they can be enjoyed guilt-free. This might explain the volume of chocolate that changes over the holidays. Thus, the lesson for gift-givers is that you should try hard to guess the preference of each person on your list and then choose a gift that will have high sentimental value.32. The word “sentimental” in Paragraph 3 is close to “_”.Aintelligent B. emotional C. social D. practical33. According to the text, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Price is nothing but the factor when you give gifts.B. Chocolate will be blamed when people receive them as gifts.C. The receivers often overestimate the values of gifts.D. Gifts do not always correspond to needs in gift-giving. 34. Which of the following statements can be inferred from the text?A. The gift-giver tries to neglect the actual needs of the receiver.B. The best gifts are well picked by the givers.C. In gift-giving, guessing preferences is often a failure, so its the thought that counts.D. You have to take money into consideration when giving a gift. 35. The text is most likely taken from a _.A. users handbook B. medical journal C.travel magazine D. consumer-related report第二節(jié) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 What to Do When Someone Doesnt Like YouWhen someone tells me, “I dont care if people like me,” they are showing me the emotional wall they use to block the hurt of rejection.As humans are social animals, all of us care if people like us. Based on the need for social connection, your reactions to rejection and negative judgment can range from minor hurt to breakouts of depression. 36The first step to handle a negative situation is to recognize your reaction. Ask yourself, “What am I feeling?” 37 Any betrayal or embarrassments in your heart? Identify what feeling has shown up in your body.So you can choose what to do next. 38 When you sense yourself shutting down or feeling defensive, ask yourself what the person actually meant to do to you. Did they truly mean to offend you, or make fun of you? Your brain works very hard to keep you safe, so it will judge a situation as threatening if there is any possibility of social harmWhen our brains sense a possible threat, we react as if we were personally attacked. Take a breath to relieve the stress. 39 Finally, if you believe the person doesnt like you, ask yourself if this matters. 40 If not, what can you do to release your need to be liked by this person? And, what can you do to stay neutral and not return the dislike? The more you can e to accept others as who they are, the more you can move forward with your goals regardless if someone likes you or not. A. If you can, look the person in their eyes.B. Do you feel any fear or anger in your head?C. Ask yourself what is true about the situation.D. Often people do not realize the impact of their words.E. Will the persons judgment of you impact your work or life?F. The ability to let a show of dislike roll off your back is a learned skill.G. This will ground you in the present and take you out of your trembling mind.第三部分 英語(yǔ)知識(shí)運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，每題1.5分，滿分45分）第一節(jié) 完形填空（共20題，每題1.5分，共30分）閱讀下面短文，從各題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。For me personally, I could write for days about many different situations where adversity（逆境） 41 my life. Now let me tell you one experience where I almost let adversity 42 . We had a glass studio, which was located 50 feet from our home. A couple of years ago we experienced an 43 winter; we had a lot of snow and ice. The 44 of the ice and snow 45 the roof on our studio, taking with it one of our sources of ine. 46 it did fall down, we got on the roof and tried to 47 the snow and ice, but when you have 5 feet of ice and temperatures of minus 20 Celsius, it was pretty 48 to do. We had a partner e in to help us try to 49 the roof by supporting. In the end, there was 50 that could be done. The roof came down. We had moved a lot of our goods and tools from the studio 51 we lost a lot also:glass, kilns, workbenches, to name only a few of the items. It was a 52 experience. Here we were in the middle of winter with our studio collapsed. We couldnt work as we had almost 53 all the material in a building we were not using. We could have done one of two things:we could simply say that we can no longer 54 our glass business. Let me tell you that this was certainly a thought that 55 our mind. Or we could find a way to get our studio back up and running. We picked the 56 option. We had a large barn that we were not using. So we renovated（翻新） the barn, 57 our working area and today we have a nicer studio than we 58 had. If the adversity we were 59 had not happened, we probably would 60 be working in the old studio-a studio that was less effici
