patternharry is eighteen now. he studies in a middle school. his parents like him very much and hope he can become a famous man. so they often tell him to study hard and they do all for him. they call him at six in the morning, after breakfast his father takes him to school in a car and in the afternoon, as soon as the young man comes back, the supper is ready. of course, he never washes his clothes or goes to buy something in the shops.once harrys father was sent to london on business. he would stay there for half a year. leaving, he told his wife to take good care of their son. the woman had to get up earlier and did all what her husband did before. and two months later she was so tired that she was ill in bed. now the young man got into trouble. he couldnt do any housework. he had to do as his mother told him. even he didnt know where to get on the bus!yesterday harrys mother found his shoes were worn out and told him to buy a new pair in the shop. but he didnt know how to choose. the woman had a sigh(叹息) and gave him a shoe pattern(鞋样) and told him to buy a pair of shoes himself. its saturday today and harry doesnt go to school. with a policemans help, he found a shop. the shopkeeper was friendly to him. the man brought a lot of shoes and asked him to choose. when he was trying on a pair, suddenly he remembered something and took them off. the man was surprised and asked, “whats the matter, young man?”“im sorry, ive left the shoe pattern at home!”56. _ always does some housework in the morning. a. harrys father b. harrys mother c. harry d. nobody57. harrys

lots of english people like the idea of sport. a lot watch sport on tv. but the number who take part in sport is quite small. on the whole english people prefer to be fat rather than thin.the most popular sport in england is football. football is played on saturday afternoon in most towns and the supporters of a certain team will travel from one end of the country to the other to see their team play. there are four divisions(级别) of the football league. not surprisingly the best teams are in the first division. but the best supporters are often in the fourth division. you have to be a good supporter to watch the fourth division football! many other sports are also played in england, such as golf, in which you try to knock a ball into a hole; basketball, in which you try to get a ball through a net; tennis, in which you try to hit a ball so that your opponent(对手) can not hit it. as you see, if the ball had not been invented, there would have been no sport. actually, that is not quite true. athletics(田径) isnt played with a ball; nor horseracing. perhaps that is why they are not as popular as football!60. _ is the most popular sport in england. a. basketballb. footballc. golf d. tennis61. you have to be a good supporter to watch _ division football. a. the firstb. the secondc. the thirdd. the fourth62. why do many english people not take part in sport?a. they are too busy.

advertisement. if you turn the pages of a newspaper or magazine, again you find an advertisement. if you walk down the street, you see one advertising board after another. all day, every day, people who want to sell you something compete to catch your attention. as a result, advertisements are almost everywhere. in the west, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. many tv stations, newspapers, magazines, radio stations are privately owned. the government does not give them money. so where does the money come from? from advertisements. without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses. have you ever asked yourself what advertising is? through the years, people have given different answers to the question. for some time it was felt that advertising was a means of “keeping your name before the public. ” and some people thought that advertising was “truth well told. ” now more and more people describe it in this way: advertising is the paid, nonpersonal, and usually persuasive description of goods, services and ideas by identified sponsors (明确的出资者)through various media. first, advertising is usually paid for. various sponsors pay for the advertisements we see, read, and hear over the various media. second, advertising is nonpersonal. it is not face to face communication. although you may feel that a message in a certain advertisement is aimed directly at you, in reality, it is directed at large groups of people. third, advertising is usually persuasive. directly or indirectly it tells people to do something. all advertisements try to make people believe that the product, idea, or service advertised can do good to them. fourth, the sponsor of the advertisement must be identified. from the advertisement, we can see if the sponsor is a company, or an organization, or an individual. fifth, advertising reaches us through traditional and nontraditional mass media. included in the traditional media are newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and films. nontraditional media include the mail, matchbox covers, and billboards. 64. the existence（存在）of the privately owned mass media depends financially（经济上地）on . a. the governmentb. their owners families c. advertisementsd. the audience65. according to the passage, who are most probably paying for the advertisements? a. companies. b. organizations. c. individuals. d. all of the above.66. which of the following is considered nontraditional mass media? a. newspapers. b. the mail. c. magazinesd. films.67. according to the passage, which of the following statements about the features of advertisements is not true? a. advertising must be honest and amusing. b. advertising is meant for large groups of people. c. advertising tells people to do something directly or indirectly. d. the sponsors are always mentioned in the advertisements. dfifty years ago not many people would have something repaired in their homes. in those days labor was fairly cheap and most people would have thought it worthwhile to have somebody repair their things unless they were very poor. today, however, it is quite a different story. men and women in all walks of life turn their hands to all kinds of jobs round the house. some people have even successfully built their own houses. these jobs have been made easier today by using prepared materials.in every high street throughout britain nowadays there is at least one “diy” shop. and “do-it-yourself” is a booming business. a lot of people visited these shops every day because of the high cost of present-day labor.68. fifty years ago if people needed some repair, they would _. a. try to mend them by themselves b. has them repaired by othersc. repair them in their homesd. have
