It serves directly to assist a rapid distribution of goods at reasonable prices, thereby establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at competitive prices. By drawing

30、attention to new ideas ithelps enormously to raise standards of living. By hel need for labour, and is therefore an effective way toto increase demand it ensures an increased unemployment. It lowers the costs ofmany services: without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much,

31、 the price of your television license would need to be doubled and travel by bus or tube would cost 20 per cent more.And perhaps most important of all, advertising provides a guarantee of reasonable value in the products and services you buy. Apart from the fact that twenty-seven Acts of Parliament

32、govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements. He might fool some people for a little while through misleading advertising. He will not do so for long, for mercifully the public has the good sense not to buy t

33、he inferior article more than once. If you see an article consistently advertised, it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it, and that it represents good value.Advertising does more for the material benefit of the commu think of.than any other force I canThere is one

34、 point I feel I ought to touch on. Recently I heard a well-known televisionality declare that he wasadvertising because it persuades rather than informs. He wasdrawing excessively fine distinctions. Of course advertising seeks to persuade.If its message were confined merely to information - and that

35、 in itself would be difficult if notimpossible to achieve, for even asuch as the choice of the colour of a shirt is subtlypersuasive - advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention. But perhaps thatis what the well-known televisionality wants.51. By the firstence of the passage

36、the author means that.A he is fairly familiar with the cost of advertisingB everybody knows well that advertising is money consuD it is worthwhile to spend money on advertising52.In the passage, which of the following is NOT included in the advantages of advertising?A Securing greater fame.B Providi

37、ng more jobs.C Enhng living standards.D Reducing newspaper cost.53.The author deems that the well-known TVality is.A very precise in passing his judgment on advertisingB interested in nothing but the buyers attentionC correct in telling the difference between persuasion and informationD obviously pa

38、rtial in his views on advertising54.In the authors opinion,.A advertising can seldom bring material benefit to man by providing informationB advertising informs people of new ideas rather than wins them overC there is nothing wrong with advertising in persuading the buyerD the buyer is not intereste

39、d in getting information from an advertisementText 2There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People havegenerally viewedal growth as an external result or product that can easily be identified andmeasured. The worker who gets a promotion, thewhose grades impr

40、ove, the foreigner wholearns a new language - all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.By contrast, the process ofal growth is much more difficult to determine, since bydefinition it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way.

41、 The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitudes and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as they encounter new experiences and unexpected obstacles. In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try, new chall

42、enges to accept.In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to confront the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essential to our ability to grow. Do we perceive ourselve

43、s as quick and curious? If so, then we tend to take more chances and to be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think were shy and indecisive? Then our sense of timidity can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe. Do we think were slow to

44、adapt to change or that were not smart enough to cope with a new challenge? Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are tochange and grow. If we do not confront and overcome these internal f

45、ears and doubts, if we protect ourselves too much, then we cease to grow. We become trapped inside a shell of our own making.55.Ais generally believed to achieveal growth when.A he has given up his smoking habitB he hasgreat efforts in his workC he is keen on leaning anything newD he has tried to de

46、termine whee is on his journey56.In the authors eyes, one who viewsal growth as a process would.A succeed in climbing up the social ladderB judge his ability to grow from his own achievementsC face difficulties and take up challengesD aim high and reach his goal each time57.When the author says “a n

47、ew way of being” (Line 23, Para. 3) he is referring toA a new approach to experiencing the worldB a new way of taking risksC a new method of perceiving ourselvesD a new system of adaptation to change.58.Foral growth, the author advocates all of the following EXCEPT.A curiosity about more chancesB pr

48、omptness in self-adaptationCness to new experiencesD avoidance of internal fears and doubtsText 3In such a changing, complex society formerly simple solutions to informational needs become complicated. Many of lifes problems which were solved by asking family members, friends or colleagues are beyon

49、d the capability of the extended family to resolve. Where to turn for expert information and how to determine which expert advice to accept are questions facing many people today.In addition to this, there is the growing mobility of people since World War II. As familiesmove away from their stable c

50、ommu, their friends of many years, their extended familyrelationships, the informal flow of information is cut off, and with it the confidence that information will be available when needed and will be trustworthy and reliable. The almost unconscious flow of information about the simplest aspects of

51、 living can be cut off. Thus, things once learned subconsciously through the casual communications of the extended family must be consciouslylearned.Adding to societal changes today is an enormous stockpile of information. The individual now has more information available than any generation, and th

52、e task of finding that one piece ofinformation relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated, time-consuand sometimeseven overwhel.Coupled with the growing quty of information is the development of technologies whichenable the storage and delivery of more information with greater speed to m

53、ore locations than has ever been possible before. Computer technology makes it possible to store vast amounts of data inmachine-ablefiles,andtoprogramcomputerstolocatespecificinformation.Telecommunications developmenable the sending of messages via television, radio, and veryshortly, electronic mail

54、 to bombard people with multitudes of messages. Satellites have extended the power of communications to report events at the instant of occurrence. Expertise can be shared worldwide through teleconferencing, and problems in dispute can be settled without the participants leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site. Technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information, thus making more information available to more people.In this world of change and complexity, the need for information is of
