As part of the application procedure(手续), Dr. Ginoux was asked to prepare a list of all the operations performed in the previous seven years. Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began to feel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case? Maybe, in this case, she should have given one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have Would the doctors on the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon in the area, she usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgment? For the first time, Dr. Ginoux felt lonely and isolated. The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the more depressed she became.

A package can motivate someone to buy a product. For example, a small child might ask for a breakfast food that comes in a box with a picture of a TV character. The child is more interested in the picture than in breakfast food. Pictures for children to color or to cut out, games printed on a package, or small gifts inside a box also motivate many children to buy products, or to ask their parents for them. Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing. Food products sold in reusable containers are example of this. Although a similar product in a plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish, because they believe the container is free. However, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product. The size of the package also motivates a buyer. Maybe the package has Economy Size or Family Size printed on it. This suggests that the large size has the most products for the least money. But that is not always true. To find out, a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic of the basic unit. The information on the package should provide some answers. But the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often an advertisement. The words and pictures do not tell the whole story. Only the product inside can do that.56. Packaging is an important form of advertising because a package_ A. is usually very useful B. can motivate someone to buy a product C. is usually very beautiful D. can tell a buyer everything about the product inside57.

Which of the following statements is NOT mentioned in the passage? A. A buyer is also attracted by the size of the container. B. Children are often made to buy a product by its package with attractive pictures. C. People prefer to buy the product in a reusable container D. On seeing a well-designed container, a buyer does not care about what is inside it.60. The writer suggests that a buyer should remember_.

Their total number is not more than 35000. Of course about 14500 live along the coast of Greenland. Eskimo settlements are scattered along the northern coast of North America from Labrador to Alaskas panhandle (“锅柄状”地区). On Baffin Island and on other large islands there are Eskimo villages. The Eskimos spend most of their time near the sea and get much of their living from the sea. However, one tribe, the Caribou Eskimos, live inland west of Hudson Bay. Some of them have never seen the sea. Although life in one village is in many ways very much like life in another, there are some differences. The reason is that the Eskimos must use what they find in the particular district where they live. The Copper Eskimos who live beside Coronation Gulf build thick-walled winter houses of snow blocks. Alaskan Eskimos do not use such houses and most of them have never even seen one. Their winter homes are made of turf and mud. The Eskimos of southern Greenland are expert in handling a kayak, or Eskimo canoe. They fish in the open water of the sea. The Eskimos of northern Greenland have little chance to use kayaks because the water along the coast is frozen almost all the year. All tribes, however, have one thing in common. They are primarily fishermen and hunters.61. The title below that best expresses the main theme of the passage is: A. The Caribou Eskimos B. The Eskimos C. Eskimo fishing D. Eskimo homes62.

Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip. But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didnt have breakfast, increased by 33 percent. For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.” Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”.66. The passage is mainly concerned with _.A. a study of the Chicago-based Market Research CorporationB. one of lifes essentialsC. latest figures of people who dont eat breakfastD. breakfast and human health67. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _. A. several studies have been done in the past few yearsB. not eating breakfast does no h
