But modern advertising does more than gives news about products and services. Todays advertisements, or ads, try to get consumers to buy certain brands. Writers of advertising are so skillful that they can, sometimes persuade a consumer to wear a certain kind of clothing, eat a special kind of cereal, or see a movie. Consumers might never even want a product if they did not see or hear advertisements for it.For example, you probab1y do not need the newest cereal in the supermarket. There are probably many cereal brands on your kitchen shelves. You may not have space on a shelf for another. But if you see ads about a new cereal that is your extra-tasty and has a free prize in the box, you may want it. Advertising must get attention. To be effective, it must be exciting, entertaining, or provide some pleasure. The secret of writing good advertising copy is to offer a good idea as well as a product. The idea is what the ad is really selling. One example is an ad that says eating a certain cereal will make a person do well in sports. That cereal brand may sell better if consumers think it offers strength and energy.46. What is discussed in this passage? A. The content of modern advertising. B. The skills of modern advertising. C. The results of modern advertising. D. The writing of modern advertising. 47.According to the passage, a good advertisement should_.A. be both persuasive and effectiveB. give people useful informationC. show people a productD. show people a new idea of a product 48. From the passage, we know that_ .A. modern advertising has less effect on customers B. once customers see ads about a new cerea1, they are sure to buy itC. cereal can make people strongD. cereal is a kind of food which is popular among people 49. What can we infer from the passage?A. Customers can easily be persuaded by advertisements.B. Customers should be persuaded by advertisements. C. Its impossible for customers to buy a product without advertisements. D. Customers buy products according to their demands rather than the advertisementsBEmily and Alex were happy when their family moved to a house with a very big garden. They could climb trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds flying among the trees in the garden . They even started to put food out to attract more birds.Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strong bumping noise on a window .Emily went outside and found a small bird died on the grass . Its neck seemed to be broken .“It must have flown into the window.” Alex said when his sister Emily called him to have a look .“Ah, yes ,look here. You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck(粘贴)on the window.”During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. “Why would they fly to the windows?” they wondered. Finally they found out the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldnt see into the rooms. All they saw was the reflection(反射) of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees because they saw trees reflected by the window. “Something has to be done to save the birds.” the parents decided. At first, he family tried keeping curtains（窗帘）across the windows, but this made the room dark. Then they bought some strong black paper and cut out the shape of a hawk. They made six hawks one for each window. They stuck the hawks to the windows. They looked pretty and did not keep out much light. When the birds saw the hawks, they would fly away. After that, there were no more dead birds. The family were much happier. 50. They put food out to attract birds because they .

If you are expecting an emergency call, sit near the exit doors and set your phone to vibrate (振动). When your mobile phone vibrates, you can leave quietly and let the others enjoy the performance. Think twice before using mobile phones in buses,museums,churches,or other indoor public places .Would you want to listen to someones conversation in these places?Worse yet, How would you feel if a mobile phone rang suddenly during a funeral! It happens more often than you think.Avoid these embarrasing situations by making sure your mobile phone is switched off.When eating at a restaurant with friends, dont place your mobile phone on the table. This conveys the message that your phone calls are more important than those around you.Mobile phones have sensitive microphones that allow you to speak at the volume you would on a regular phone.

If you are calling from a noisy area, use your hand to direct your voice into the microphone.Many people believe that they cant live without their mobile phone.

A. Sitting at the back means fewer food options.B. Flight attendants get paid only for flight hours.C. Flight attendants job is to keep passengers safe.D. Flight attendants might water down your drinks.E. Flight attendants are trained to identify criminals.F. The seat-belt sign is “on” far longer than necessary.Things That An Air Hostess Wont Tell YouTo make things a bit easier for them and ensure a smooth flight, many Flight attendants have little tricks under their sleeves. Here are some of them which they wont tell you out of sheer politeness.61._Contrary to what most people think, a flight attendants primary job is to ensure your safety - the helping and serving part of their job are just add-ons. If they are assisting you with your luggage, it is to make sure it is stored properly and does not harm anyone. They are not required to lift your bags or help you take them elsewhere. All the other assistance, such as providing you with a drink, handing you hot towels, etc., are to make sure you stay calm and satisfied.62. _ As unfair as it may seem, the time that a flight attendant spends in getting the plane ready, settling you down, etc., is not included in their salary. They do, however, receive some expense allowance(津贴) for the entire time they clock in - it is a pretty small income though63. _If a flight attendant feels a passenger is ordering too many drinks, and getting drunk, they might avoid serving him/her by avoiding eye contact. When that fails, they might just fill the glass half-way or give him/her a diluted (稀释的) drink64. _A number of training programs and workshops exist to train flight attendants in different aspects. As some people are using flights more and more to smuggle (走私), flight attendants are being regarded as the first line of defense against this heinous （邪恶的）crime. The benefits are already evident - a number of dangers are avoided, thanks to alert(警惕的) flight attendants on board.65. _ This is a bit unfortunate for those sitting at the
