sometimes motivate someone to buy a product. for example, a small child might ask for a breakfast food that comes in a box with a picture of a tv character. the child is more interested in the picture than in breakfast food. pictures for children to color or cut out, games printed on a package, or small gifts inside a box also motivate many children to buy productsor to ask their parents for them. some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing. food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this. although a similar product in a plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish, because they believe the container is free. however, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product. the size of a package also motivates a buyer. maybe the package has “economy（经济）size” or “family size” printed on it. this suggests that the large size has the most product for the least money. but that is not always true. to find out a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit. the information on the package should provide some answers. but the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often an advertisement. the words and pictures do not tell the whole story. only the product inside can do that. 59. as used in the first paragraph, the word “motivate” most probably mean _. a. making one believe what he does is just b. providing a story that makes one moved c. supplying a thought or feeling that makes one act d. making one deep in thought 60. “a buyer will get something for nothing” most probably means that _. a. a buyer will not get what he wants to b. a buyer will gain more than he loses c. a buyer will get what he pays for d. a buyer will get something useful free of charge 61. which of the following statements is not mentioned in the passage? a. on seeing a well-designed container, a buyer often neglects（忽略）what is inside it. b. a buyer is also attracted by the size of the container. c. children are often made to buy a product by its package with attractive pictures. d. package is often a successful advertisement. 62. what suggestion does the author give in the passage? a. the best choice for buyer is to get a product in a plain package. b. a buyer should get what he needs most. c. do not buy the product which is sold in a glass or dish. d. the quality of a container has nothing to do with the quality of the product. ccancer is among the top killer diseases in our society today and scientists have found out that stress（紧张、压力）helps on bring it on. it is worth considering. what are the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do anything about them?are we out of work, or have too many responsibilities（责任）? do we have a right balance of work and leisure（闲暇）in our lives? are our relationships with family, fiends or fellow workers all they should be?all these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face them honestly, and to bring out frustrations（失意，挫败）into the open. people who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health better than those who bottle up（抑制）their feelings.if our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. it is possible to change jobs. we can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will accept a different living standard（标准）. we can improve our personal relationships by a different attitude（态度）. it is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hours anger. the teaching in the bible（圣经）“dont let the sun go down upon your wrath（愤怒）
