The BBC English Dictionary contains background information on 1,000 people and places prominent in the news since 1988; the Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary: Encyclopedic Edition is the OALD plus encyclopedic entries; the Longman Dictionary of English Language and Culture is the LDOCE plus cultural information.The key fact is that all three dictionaries can be seen to have a distinctly “cultural” as well as language learning content. That being said, the way in which they approach the cultural element is not identical, making direct comparisons between the three difficult.While there is some common ground between the encyclopedic/cultural entries for the Oxford and Longman dictionaries, there is a clear difference. Oxford lays claim to being encyclopedic on content whereas Longman distinctly concentrates on the language and culture of the English speaking world. The Oxford dictionary can therefore stand more vigorous scrutiny (审查) for cultural bias than the Longman publication because the latter does not hesitate about viewing the rest of the world from the cultural perspectives of the English-speaking world. The cultural objectives of the BBC dictionary are in turn more distinct still. Based on an analysis of over 70 million words recorded from the BBC World Service and National Public Radio of Washington over a period of four years, their 1,000 brief encyclopedic entries are based on people and places that have featured in the news recently. The intended user they have in mind is a regular listener to the World Service who will have a reasonable standard of English and a developed skill in listening comprehension.In reality, though, the BBC dictionary will be purchased by a far wider range of language learners, as will the other two dictionaries. We will be faced with a situation where many of the users of these dictionaries will at the very least have distinct socio-cultural perspectives and may have world views which are totally opposed and even hostile to those of the West. Advanced learners from this kind of background will not only evaluate a dictionary on how user-friendly it is but will also have definite views about the scope and appropriateness of the various socio-cultural entries.56. What feature sets apart the three dictionaries discussed in the passage from traditional ones?A. The combination of two dictionaries into one. B. The new approach to defining words.C. The inclusion of cultural content. D. The increase in the number of entries. 57. The Longman dictionary is more likely to be criticized for cultural prejudice because _.A. its scope of cultural entries goes beyond the culture of the English-speaking worldB. it pays little attention to the cultural content of the non-English-speaking countriesC. it views the world purely from the standpoint of the English-speaking peopleD. it fails to distinguish language from culture in its encyclopedic entries58. It is implied in the last paragraph that, in approaching socio-cultural content in a dictionary, social thought should be given to _.A. the language levels of its usersB. the number of its prospective purchasersC. the different tastes of its usersD. the various cultural backgrounds of its usersBAdvertising means to draw peoples attention to something. It is a central feature of our lives. Sales depend upon it. So does our knowledge of what is available. Read the following adverts and see how much you understand them.59. About what they advertise, we can safely say that _ .A. Adverts（I）and（）advertise two productsB. Adverts（）and（IV）advertise servicesC. Adverts（II）and（）advertise beliefs D. Adverts（I）and（IV）provide jobs60. How many adverts are trying to be price competitive?A. 1. B. 2. C. 3. D. 4.61. Which of the following statements about the adverts above is NOT true?A. A newspaper uses one of them in its own newspaper.B. All of them advertise for the largest number of customers.C. All of them list the prices.D. All of them have included contact information.62. From these examples of adverts, we can conclude that _.A. some adverts are provided by newspapers free of chargeB. newspaper is the most common means of advertisingC. advertising is an expensive businessD. adverts should appeal to customersCI have been passionate about sewing and fashion design since I was 12. Two years ago, I designed and made a set of outfits from recyclable materials for a charity fashion show. Through this highly meaningful and profound experience, I became aware of the importance of protecting and preserving our environment when designing and making fashion items, resulting in my founding an organization to promote eco-friendly, design and fashion.My interest has led me to research areas of fashion that have environmental implications. For example, some popular clothing stores have announced marketing policies designed to improve the environment. For those of us who are eco-conscious, it is responsible for us to evaluate whether such policies are just a marketing promotion, or represent great efforts to protect our environment.Three chain-stores, H&M, Urban Outfitters and Forever 21, have been promoting green items. After I examined their products, I have concluded that H&M and Urban Outfitters are truly helping the environment with their efforts, while Forever 21 seems to be using the go green trend as a way to sell more products, rather than genuinely help the environment.Of these three stores, H&M has the most extensive eco -fashion plans. It is already well on its way to carrying out its plans by increasingly mixing organic cotton into their garments, as well as putting fully organic cotton items on the market. The store also belongs to the Organic Exchange Organization, which approves of growth of organic cotton. To reduce the harm from non - organic cotton production, H&M is involved with the Better Cotton Project. Mindful of the unfavorable effects of climate change, the store aims to minimize transportation and energy usage. H&M labels their eco -friendly products with an official symbol, the Flower, to represent a production system that is less harmful than most traditional processes. Because of these actions and policies, H&M is already well on its way to making a difference on the environment.With its Urban Renewal brand, Urban Outfitter takes a different approach than H&M in promoting eco - friendly fashion. The brand features womens clothes made from strictly environmentally -friendly sources, such as vintage, dead stock, or surplus clothing. Urban Renewal produces fashionable garments, and embraces being eco - friendly through recycling.Unlike the other two stores above, Forever 21 s eco-fashion efforts fall short; some people would say their message is thoroughly misleading. It promotes the green image, and yet many of their supposed eco -friendly products do not help the environment. For example, it sells a Think Green Tote that, according to the site, is meant to send an environmentally friendly message. However it is made of 100% non - organic cotton which is one of the most damaging fabrics to the environment, mostly because it requires greater chemical intervention compared to organic cotton. Also, the I Love My Planet Tote is supposed to make a positive statement, but is also made of 100% cotton that is not organic. The only tote that is environmentally - friendly is the H81 Organic Cotton Tote from Forever 21s Heritage brand, made from 100% organic cotton. Now that Forever 21 has portrayed itself as being green, it should start walking the walk.63. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means _.A. all the customers are trying not to walk into the Forever 21 to buy products B. the Forever 21 has already been on its way to transform its negative image C. the writer publicly urges the Forever 21 to put its campaign into practice D. the environmental problem is so serious that we should pay more attention64. Which of the following supports the authors opinion?A. The authors environmental awareness comes from his shopping experiences. B. None of the three stores makes a difference on the ecological protection. C. Someone uses the go green trend just as a trick to make more profit. D. It is still a very long way before we humans will use real
