You listen to their conversation: I cant believe it-a Lorenzo Bertolla! They are almost impossible to find. Isnt it beautiful? And its a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome. They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater. Its nice and the price is right. Youve never heard of Lorenzo Bertolla, but those girls looked really stylish. They must know. So, you buy it. You never realize that those young women are employees of an advertising agency. They are actually paid to go from store to store, talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla clothes. Every day we notice what people are wearing, driving and eating. If the person looks cool, the product seems cool, too. This is the secret of undercover marketing. Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it. Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that dont pay attention to traditional advertising. This is particularly true of the MTV generation-consumers between the age of 18 and 34. It is a golden group. They have a lot of money to spend, but they dont trust ads. So advertising agencies hire young actors to perform in bars and other places where young adults go. Some people might call this practice deceptive, but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative. Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is decreasing. However, one might ask what exactly is real about of young women pretending to be enthusiastic about a sweater? Adverting executives would say its no less real than an ad. The difference is that you know an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something. You don t know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.56. The two attractive young women were talking so that they could _. A. get the sweater at a lower price B. be heard by people around C. be admired by other shoppers D. decide on buying the sweater57. Lorenzo Bertolla is _. A. a very popular male singer B. an advertising agency C. a clothing company in Rome D. the brand name of a sweater58. The underlined word real in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _. A. honest B. true C. false D. artificial59. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. The two girls are in fact employed by the Lorenzo Bertolla Company. B. The MTV generation tend to be more easily influenced by ads. C. Traditional advertising is becoming less effective because its too direct. D. Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government.60. Which of the following would be the best rifle for the text? A. Two Attractive Shoppers B. Lorenzo Bertolla Sweaters C. Ways of Advertising D. Undercover Marketing B The booking notes of the play “the Age of Innocence”:Price: 10BOOKINGThere are four easy ways to book seats for performance:- in personThe Box Office is open Monday to Saturday, 10 a.m -8 p.m - by telephoneRing 01324976 to reserve your tickets or to pay by credit card（Visa, MasterCard and Amex accepted）- by postSimply complete the booking form and return it to Global Theatre Box Office - on lineComplete the on-line booking form at wwwSatanfiedtheatrecomDISCOUNTS:Saver: 2 off any seat booked any time in advance for performances from Monday to Thursday Savers are available for children up to 16 years old, over 60s and full-time students Supersaver: half-price seats are available for people with disabilities and one companion It is advisable to book in advance There is a maximum of eight wheelchair spaces available and one wheelchair space will be held until an hour before the show Standby: best available seats are on sale for 6 from one hour before the performance for people eligible（suitable）for Saver and Supersaver discounts and thirty minutes before for all other customers Group Bookings: there is a ten percent discount for parties of twelve or more School: school parties often or more can book 6 standby tickets in advance and will get every tenth ticket free Please note: we are unable to exchange tickets or refund money unless a performance is cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances 61If you want to book a ticket, you CANNOT _Ause the Internet Bgo to the Box Office on SundaysCcomplete a booking form and post it to the Box OfficeDring the booking number and pay for the tickets by credit card 62According to the notes, who can get 2 off?
