says for it , the first step is to present the warranty(保单)，or any other records that might help, at the store of buying. in most cases, this action will produce results. however, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.a simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. in general, the “higher up” the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. in such a case, it is usually settled in the consumers favor, taking it as true that he or she has a just right.consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of buying, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can show clearly what is wrong with what was bought in question. if this cant be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. for example, “the left speaker doesnt work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear” is better than “this tape recorder does not work.”the store manager may advise the consumer to write to the producer, if so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. but if a polite complaint does not achieve the expected result, the consumer can take a step further. he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a public organization responsible for protecting consumers rights.26when a consumer finds what he bought has a fault in it, he should first_.a. complain personally to the managerb. show something provable in written form to the storec. threaten to take the matter to the courtd. write a firm letter to complain to the store27. if a consumer wants a quick settlement of his problem, its better to complain to _.a. a shop assistantb. the producerc. a public organization d. a store manager28. the most effective complaint about what was bought can be made by_a. showing the fault of it to the producerb. saying firmly it is of poor qualityc. asking politely to change itd. explaining exactly what is wrong with it29. the passage tells us _a. how to make the complaint effective b. how to settle a consumers complaintc. how to avoid buying something wrongd. how to deal with complaint from countries30. according to the passage, the last way a consumer has to use is_a. to write to the producerb. to quarrel with the managerc. to warn the seller that he will turn to the court or a consumers organization for helpd. to collect several fighters to threaten the sellerbin many parts of the world, cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them. so the idea that in 20 years time, no one will own cars may be hard to believe. but this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously, not only by government but also by car manufacturers.the human science and advanced technology institute at loughborough in the uk is part of an international research program. the team there believes that by 2020 all cars will be computerized, which will mean much saving, no accidents and better use of roads. the super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself, and it will not be owned by one individual. instead, we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing.according to dr. david davis , who leads the research team, these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture, which had blocked up our cities, polluted our air , and caused more deaths than both world wars put together.davis says, cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices to regulate the distance between one car and another. the car will automatically speed up, or slow down, to match the speed of the car in front. computers are much safer drivers than people, so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people.by 2010, dr. david davis believes, car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road, whatever the weather conditions, by projecting an image of the road ahead on to the cars windscreen. and by 2020, cars will travel in convoy, linked to each other electronically. cars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form “road trains”. “the front vehicle in such a train burns the normal amount.” says davis. “but all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount, and so produce about ten percent of the pollution.”31.we know from the passage that governments and car manufacturers _a. do not believe the prediction that no one will own cars by 2020b. are devoted to the technological revolution in car industryc. consider the predictions seriouslyd. have put the super-intelligent car into mass production32. which of the following will be the characteristic of the cars of 2020?a. the car will speed up out of controlb. we will own as many cars as we want c. all cars will be driven by computersd. cars will produce more pollution than present onescthe central government will pour billions of yuan into special projects to help meet the countrys energy-saving targets. local officials are also about to come under increased pressure to toe the government line to meet the targets, otherwise their political futures could be in jeopardy. a top official from the national development and reform commission reaffirmed chinas commitment to cutting energy use and emissions when making a report to the standing committee of the national peoples congress yesterday.“were facing a very vital situation to cut energy use,” ma kai, the ndrc minister said. “if we dont fasten our pace, it will be difficult to meet the targets this year.”ma said the central government would also issue compulsory energy consumption standards for 22 products such as steel, cement, caustic soda and thermal power by the end of the year. ndrc figures show that the countrys energy consumption per unit of gross domestic product (gdp) dropped 2.78 percent in the first six months from the same period a year earlier. however, the government has set the target of reducing energy consumption per unit of gdp by 20 percent between 2006 and 2010, about an annual fall of 4 percent. but it fell only 1.33 percent last year from 2005. in addition, official figures also show that so2 emissions dropped 0.88 percent to 12.63 million tons in the first half of the year.the minister blamed some local officials for dragging the rest of the country down in not meeting the targets. he said the assessment of officials in many places still focused too much on their performance in economic growth, and many cities and counties still lacked concrete plans to cut energy consumption. ma said we had paid too much to economic growth and serious consequences are revealing themselves.36. the underlined sentence in paragraph 1 means “_”. a. their families would be healthy b. their futures would be bright c. their futures would be in dangerd. their jobs would be necessary37. the chinese government will pour billions of yuan into special projects to _.a. help reduce

d. a and c.dbedazzling (眼花缭乱) with their bright colors and eye-catching displays, fireworks light up our night skies during the holidays. however, these crowd-pleasers can have some damaging side effects. once a firework is set off, it only takes a couple of seconds before smoke, dust and harmful chemicals are let out into the atmosphere. the loud booming noises are caused by gunpowder. while the sounds may excite some people, they can be frightening to domestic and wild animalsas well as some humans. the pretty colors you see are a result of more chemicals. barium, added to make green, is known for its poisonous and radioactive qualities. blue comes from copper compounds. cadmium, lithium and leadall found in fireworkshave been linked to diseases, such as allergies and skin rashes in both humans and animals. acid rain has been linked to gases given off by fireworks, which sometimes go beyond the toxin(毒素) limits of the united states clean air act. once all those chemicals come back down to the ground, they can cause problems too. debris (碎片) from the fireworks falls to the ground, where animals can burn their paws or noses on piping hot pieces. humans also are at risk of stepping on or picking up something sharp or hot. meanwhile, debris that finds its way into waterways can damage animal habitats and water supply sources. instead of setting off fireworks, try to come up with some new ways for fun. here are some ideas to get you started: sky lanternsa tradition that originated long ago in the most-populated asian country.party crackersa favorite in the united kingdomgive you noise and surprises without the mess of fireworks. you can make your own or buy eco-friendly crackers. want noise excitement with less volume? consider a fireworks sound recording
