was a loud noise behind them. people rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. someone shouted at them. the bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. the three foreigners seem all at sea and looked embarrassed. no one had told them about the british custom of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus.learning the language of a country isnt enough. if you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. you will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. a visitor to india would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. the left hand is supposed to be used for washing yourself. also in india, you might see a man shaking his head at another to show that he doesnt agree. but in many parts of india a shake of the head means agreement. nodding (点头) your head when you are given a drink in bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty.56. the british people tried to push the three gentlemen out of the way, because the

radio, television, cinema, magazines and newspapers has gone hand in hand with the development of advertising. why is advertising so popular? is it a waste of money? it has been proved again and again that repeated advertising increases product sales. since it increases production, the price can be reduced. therefore advertising, instead of making a product more expensive, makes it cheaper.advertising is now a scientific business. once managers would say jokingly, i know that half of what i spend on advertising is wasted, but i dont know which half. now, all parts of an advertising programme are properly measured and researched.what makes a good advertisement? there have been major changes in advertising in the past sixty years. people read advertisements partly for information and partly for pleasure. todays advertisements often start with a question, or a puzzle, with the purpose of attracting the readers attention. of course, most advertisements contain information. but this is usually contained in a text that is interesting and often funny. humour is very important. sometimes advertisements tell a story, or the story may be continued over a number of advertisements. however, there is a danger in this. it is possible that the reader or viewer will remember the advertisement but not the name of the product.60. the purpose of advertising is _.a. to increase product sales b. to make a product much better c. to spend more money d. to reduce the production61. which of the following can be used in place of the underlined phrase hand in hand ? a. here and there. b. again and again. c. as usual. d. at the same time. 62. what is meant by what managers said in the second paragraph?a. all the money on advertising was wasted. b. not all the advertisements were well designed.c. all the managers knew about advertising then. d. managers spent no money on advertising.63. what does the writer think of advertising?a. useless. b. unnecessary.

games of their own. charades（字谜游戏）is a fun game that will challenge children to use their imagination. divide the family into teams and let each team come up with words and the other has to act out.family art timepick some time for the family to sit down and come up with their own art. it doesnt need to be just a drawingtake some old magazines, let the kids cut out pictures and paste them into their own shape. or let them use leaves, branches and whatever else they can find to make something from their imagination.family picnictaking the family for a picnic is a great way for some fun that doesnt cost any money. if the weather is nice, take them to a park or playground and let them have a day of playing.family field tripa family field trip doesnt have to cost a cent. ask a nearby farm if you can bring your kids out for a tour and to see some of the animals. or take them to a park to find certain items from nature. ask a local business if you could bring the family for a tour

frightened by a man walking his dog attacked the pair, throwing the pet underwater and hitting the owner in the stomach with its back legs. the australian, chris rickard, was in stable condition monday after the attack, which ended when the 49-year-old struck the kangaroo in the throat.rickard said he was walking his blue dog, rocky, on sunday morning when they surprised a sleeping kangaroo in arthurs creek northeast of melbourne. the dog chased the animal into a pond, when the kangaroo turned and knocked the pet underwater.when rickard tried to pull his dog free, the kangaroo turned on him, attacking with its back legs and tearing a deep cut into his stomach and across his face.i thought i might take action to drag the dog out from under his grasp, but i didnt expect him to actually attack me, rickard, 49, told the herald sun newspaper. it was a shock at the start because it was a kangaroo, about 5 feet high, they dont go around killing people.i was stuck having to hold on to the dog with both hands because it was half drowned and i couldnt really see anything because the kangaroo just attacked me.” he added, all i could do was just keep pushing for the bank and he was trying to push me under the water, so at that point i struck him in the throat and that made him back off a little bit.”i dont think ill ever be able to watch kangaroo programs quite the same as i used to it might bring back a couple of bad memories.”kangaroos rarely attack people but will fight if they feel threatened.dogs often chase kangaroos, which have been known to lead the pets into water and
