itLorenzo 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 generationconsumers between the age of 18 and 34.Its 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 misleading，but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative.“Look at traditional advertising.Its effectiveness is decreasing.” It is true，because everyone knows an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something.However，you dont know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.1The two attractive young women were talking so as to_.Aget the sweater at a lower priceBbe heard by people aroundCbe admired by other shoppersDdecide on buying the sweater2Lorenzo Bertolla is_.Aa very popular male singerBan advertising agencyCa clothing company in RomeDthe brand name of clothes3What can we infer from the passage?ATraditional advertising will soon disappear in the market.BThe MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by all kinds of ads.CThat traditional advertising is too direct may lead to its decreasing effectiveness.DUndercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government.4Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?ATwo Attractive ShoppersBLorenzo Bertolla SweatersCWays of AdvertisingDUndercover MarketingB(2012福州五校模拟)Youre lost in the world of dreams and sleep.You roll over，smiling as you come across a swimming pool filled with chocolate.And then，your wonderful dream becomes a nightmare (噩梦) when someone is screaming，“Get up！” Its just what every teenager goes through each morning!Now，there seems to be one school that finally understands that requiring teens to show up at 9 am is not just cruel but also harmful to both the kids and the school.Monkseaton High School in North Tyneside，Britain，recently decided to experiment to see if there is any difference in student behavior if they just pushed back the start of their day by one hour，from 9 am to 10 am.And the results are surprising.Since carrying out the later start，Monkseaton has seen a 28% drop in truancy，even hardly any lateness，and best of all，higher test scores.One of the reasons is that the teenagers are much happier to have the extra hour of sleep，but there is also a scientific reason behind why they need the extra sleep.The schools decision to push back the time was based on the research done by Oxford Professor Russell Foster，who pointed out that teenagers and adults have different sleep cycles，explaining why teenagers go to bed late and wake up late.While adults are wide awake and ready at 8 am，teenagers are not fully awake until 10 am，sometimes even noon.Teachers may argue that their students perform better in the morning，but in fact，it is because they are in the zone while their students are still sleepy，making the students easier to control.Memory tests prove that the more difficult classes should be in the afternoon when teenagers are most wide awake.The Monkseaton school officials are encouraged by the results and plan on voting to make it a permanent change.5Whats the meaning of the underlined word “truancy” ?Agrades Bclasses CabsenceDpractice6What can we learn from the passage?ATeenagers and adults have the same sleep cycle.BTeenagers are fully awake at 10 am as a whole.CTeenagers are much happier to sleep than study.DTeenagers need the extra sleep also for a scientific reason.7Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?AMonkseaton High School is satisfied with the result of the experiment.BIt is very cruel for the teenagers to show up in class at 9 am every day.CMonkseaton High School plans to change the school time forever.DIn fact，teenagers perform better in the morning than in the afternoon.8Whats the best title for this passage?AGet up early，teenagers!BFinally，a school understands teenagersCWhy do teenagers stay up late?DDifferences between teens and adults.短文改错Alexander was a military genius or great explorer.But he also had a great ambition.He wanted to rule a country that people could live

right”可以用于对别人的道歉作出礼貌回答，意思是“没关系，不要紧，没什么”。答案：D2解析：考查冠词用法。由语境知，这是五天里她第二次向“我”要求加薪，第一个空the用于序数词之前，表“第二次”；第二个空表泛指。答案：C3解析：考查动词时态。句意为：在过去的十年里，中国已经援助了161个国家和国际组织。根据时间状语over the past

age是省略了关系代词that的定语从句，that在定语从句中作learn的宾语。答案：D11解析：accelerate加速。access进入，通过；accumulate积累；accomplish完成，实现，均不符合题意。答案：D12解析：考查短语动词辨析。句意为：“我厌烦了无休止的考试”。“振作起来，David。坚持到高考结束。”be fed up with厌倦，受够了，饱受。catch up
