other way.” turning the paper sideways is like looking at situations from different angles. henry l. mencken said it first: “for every complex problem, there is a solution that is simple, neat and wrong.” and how often i am determined to keep pounding on that simple and neat solution until i make it work, or else i finally give up altogether. but success will surprisingly come when i decide to look at the thing from a wholly different perspective (视角). several all night convenience stores in new york city had a problem with teenagers hanging out in their parking lots late into the night. not that they didnt like kids; but customers complained (抱怨) that they were afraid to approach them in the dark and push through them to enter the store. neighbors complained that they couldnt sleep with the noise. managers tried various methods to solve the problem. they asked the kids to move away from the doors so customers didnt have to push through them. they asked them to throw their cigarette butts and trash (垃圾) in outdoor dustbins and not litter the parking lot. each solution was simple, neat and completely ineffective. it seemed that any of them should have worked. but none of them did. finally, one man came up with an unusual idea. finding that asking the teens to change their behavior didnt work, he tried something different. he just piped easy-listening music into the parking lot especially suited for mature listeners. no more loitering (闲逛). 56. what might be the authors purpose in writing the text?a. to give advice. b. to make us laugh.c. to analyze a problem.d. to tell us an interesting story. 57. the managers failed to solve the problem because _. a. the kids didnt like themb. their solutions were too complexc. they were not polite enough to the kids d. they asked the kids to change their behavior 58. why did the kids leave the parking lots?a. they didnt like the music.b. they got bored of playing there.c. they came to know it was unsafe. d. they were moved by the manager.59. by telling the story, the author intends to tell us _.a. kids today are tough to deal withb. a simple solution is usually better c. its better to calm down teenagersd. we should look at a problem in different perspectivesbamong all mass media, newspapers are regard as the most effective source of promotion. advertising in newspapers is a highly efficient way to explore the best opportunities for your business. advertising in newspapers is still regarded as the most useful in the age of online media. here you will come to know why it is so beneficial. firstly, as an advertiser, you must focus on the cost of the promotional medium. newspaper advertising gives you the opportunity to get the highest response in minimal (最小的) budget in comparison with other media. newspaper ads also give the option to manage the cost according to the availability of resources with you. text classified is especially for this purpose. it takes very small space, but it does not mean that it has no response. it helps focus on target audience as it is divided into categories. the most beneficial aspect of newspaper advertising is trust building. the print medium is one of the oldest mass media. so, newspaper advertising always helps in branding. meanwhile, this form of advertising gives you complete freedom to target the specific geographical location. if you want to only cover the local residents (居民) of a particular city then regional language newspapers are best for you. if your focus is to compete with countrywide players then give ads in a national newspaper. you can also focus on a particular group of population by advertising in certain newspapers. every newspaper gives the special attention to a particular part of population. dainik jagran mainly entertains the middle and lower classes of population while times of india is the newspaper for modernized parts. the target audience of any newspaper can also be divided on the basis of age group. 60.compared to other promotional media, the newspaper _. a. has the most readersb. takes the least space c. is the most cost effectived. reaches the farthest place61.ads in newspapers help in branding because _.a. they are in detail and very attractive b. newspapers are very popular nowadays c. people have a lot of trust in newspapers d. many people are turning to print media 62.we can infer from the text that to advertise effectively, _.a. advertisements should appeal to all people b. proper newspapers should be chosen c. advertising methods should be modern d. national newspapers are best choices63.what is the best title for the text?a. advantages of newspapers over other media b. dos and donts in making advertisements c. how to choose suitable advertising media d. why newspaper advertising is so goodci was brought up in the british, stiff upper lip style. strong feelings arent something you display in public. so, you can imagine that i was unprepared for the outpouring of public grief (悲伤) at a chinese funeral. my editorial team leader died recently after a short illness. he was 31. the news was so unexpected that it left us all shocked and upset. a female colleague burst into tears and cried piteously at her desk. somehow we got through the days work. the next day was the funeral. our big boss stepped forward to deliver a eulogy and was soon in tears. she carried on, in chinese of course, but at the end said in english: there will be no more deadlines for you in heaven. next came a long-term colleague who also dissolved in tears but carried on with her speech despite being almost overcome by emotion. then a close friend of the dead man paid tribute (哀悼), weeping openly as he spoke. sorrow is spreading. men and women were now sobbing uncontrollably. finally, the mans mother, supported between two women, addressed her son in his coffin. at one point, the mother almost collapsed and had to be held up. we were invited to step forward to each lay a white rose on the casket. our dead colleague looked as if he was taking a nap. at the end of the service i walked away from the funeral parlor stunned at the outpouring of emotion. in the uk, families grieve privately and then try to hold it together and not break down at a funeral. here in china it would seem that grieving is a public affair. it strikes me that it is more cathartic to cry your eyes out than try to keep it bottled up for fear of embarrassment, which is what many of us do in the west. afterwards, a chinese colleague told me that the lamenting at the funeral had been restrained (克制) by chinese standards. in some rural areas, she said, people used to be paid to mourn noisily. this struck me like something out of novel by charles dickens. but we have all seen on tv scenes of grief-stricken people in gaza and the west bank, in afghanistan, iraq and the relatives of victims of terrorist bombings around the world. chinese grief is no different. i realized that its the reserved british way of mourning that is out of step with the rest of the world. it was our newspapers production day. we were bussed back to the office to resume work. no more deadlines for our former colleague, but we had to pull together to put the newspaper to print. the boss invited the team to go out for dinner after work. we relaxed, smiled, joked. there was no mention of the funeral or our poor colleague. enough sorrow had been shed already. we needed a break. 64.the underlined words “stiff upper lip style” mean “_”. a. cold-blooded b. warm-hearted c. self-controlled d. light-hearted 65.according to the writer, people in the west _. a. are not willing to be sad for the dead b. prefer to control their sadness in public c. cry their eyes out at the public funeral d. have better way to express sadness 66.it is implied that _. a. the english might cry noisily for the dead in dickens time b. chinese express their sadness quite unlike other peoples c. victims of terrorist bombings should be greatly honored d. english funeral culture is more civilized than the others 67.this passage talks mainly about _. a. an editors death b. bad funeral customs c. western ways of grief d. cultural differencedif you are the parent of a child with autism (自闭症), you may have heard him/her speak in a language not recognized as anything but gibberish (含混不清的话). you may long to hear your child call “mommy” or “daddy”, yet the words emitted are indistinguishable. as a developmental specialist in the field of early intervention, i have had several opportunities to witness the first words of children with autism. one experience in working with angela, a girl with autism, was inspiring and touching. she was a child of three, with large, round brown eyes. she was the mirror image of her mother, a young 31-year-old, married and living in columbia, south carolina.i remembered that at that time angela began to play with mr. potato head; his parts spread on the floor. angela reached for the plastic blue eyes and walked over to her mother sitting on the floor. she looked into her mothers eyes, pointing closely at them, then stating clearly and
