emerald valleys mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. what they found instead was a sky so brightened by the citys lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.“my family was so frustrated，” admitted town resident duane cosby.“we wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.”astronomersscientists who study stars and planetshave been complaining about this problem for decades. they say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. they call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it.there is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. this population consists of birds, bats, frogs，snakes, etc. for example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating (迁徙的)birds. according to the international dar-sky association，“100 million birds a year throughout north america die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.”countless more animal casualties(伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting. clearly，people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings, but some scientists think it can be harmful for humans，too. they worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a persons chances of getting cancer.emerald valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. for years, flagstaff, arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the lowell observatory. similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night.41it happened last night that _a. the citys lights affected the meteor watchingbthe meteors flew

to buy. but modern advertising does more than gives news about products and services. todays advertisements, or ads, try to get consumers to buy certain brands. writers of advertising are so skillful that they can, sometimes persuade a consumer to wear a certain kind of clothing, eat a special kind of cereal, or see a movie. consumers might never even want a product if they did not see or hear advertisements for it.for example, you probab1y do not need the newest cereal in the supermarket. there are probably many cereal brands on your kitchen shelves. you may not have space on a shelf for another. but if you see ads about a new cereal that is your extra-tasty and has a free prize in the box, you may want it. advertising must get attention. to be effective, it must be exciting, entertaining, or provide some pleasure. the secret of writing good advertising copy is to offer a good idea as well as a product. the idea is what the ad is really selling. one example is an ad that says eating a certain cereal will make a person do well in sports. that cereal brand may sell better if consumers think it offers strength and energy.46. what is discussed in this passage? a. the content of modern advertising.b. the skills of modern advertising. c. the results of modern advertising.d. the writing of modern advertising. 47. according to the passage, a good advertisement should _.a. be both persuasive and effective b. give people useful informationc. show people a productd. show people a new idea of a product 48. from the passage, we know that_ . a. modern advertising has less effect on customers b. once customers see ads about a new cerea1, they are sure to buy itc. cereal can make people strongd. cereal is a kind of food which is popular among people 49. what can we infer from the passage?a. customers can easily be persuaded by advertisements.b. customers should be persuaded by advertisements.c. its impossible for customers to buy a product without advertisements. d. customers buy products according to their demands rather than the advertisements. 【参考答案】46-49 bada 社会生活类。the cost of higher educationindividuals(个人)should pay for their higher education.a university education is of huge and direct benefit to the individual. graduates earn more than non-graduates. meanwhile,social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree. however,only some people have it. so the individual,not the taxpayers,should pay for it. there are pressing calls on the resources(资源)of the government. using taxpayers money to help a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one ofthem.full government funding(资助)is not very good for universities. adam smith worked in a scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees. he knew and looked down upon 18th-century oxford,where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government. guaranteed salaries,smith argued,were the enemy of hard work;and when the academics were lazy and incompetent,the students were similarly lazy.if students have to pay for their education,they not only work harder,but also demand more from their teachers. and their teachers have to keep them satisfied. if that means taking teaching seriously,and giving less time to their own research interests,that is surely something to celebrate.many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy(经济). many graduates clea
