送者经常把他们的礼物仔细地用彩带和小纸花来包装，礼物被包装得或大或小，或无价之宝或价值很小；而幸运的接受者将会怀着巨大的渴望和好奇心当着送礼物人的面拆开礼物，表达自己的感激之情：“这正是我想要的。”然而事实上，大部分的人将会把他们“经常想要的”礼物送回商店去换取他们真正想要的礼物。为某个人甚至为家人找礼物，你不得不要知道他们喜欢什么和在你找到合适的礼物之前商店的开门时间。但是尽管如此那个人可能还会不喜欢你送的礼物。如今商店将会提供两种不同版本的礼物收据。其中一个就是包含在礼物包装里，是为了方便礼物接受者调换。我知道是不可能把礼物换成现金的，但是时代不同了。另一个避免所有的购物忙碌的好办法就是从商店里购置礼物卡，把它送给侄子、侄女或家庭成员，这样他们就可以得到他们想要的礼物甚至可以自己留着钱。66.【答案】B【解析】从文中第一段可知选礼物是件不容易的事情。67.【答案】D【解析】句意为：对于中国人来说当着送礼物人的面是……从选项中看其他三个选项都不合适。68.【答案】A【解析】B选项文中没有提到，C选项是只有美国人才有的，D选项未提及。69.【答案】D【解析】从第三段的最后一句可知答案为D。70.【答案】C【解析】文中作者在第一段讲述了购物的一个现状，第二段对中西方有关礼物进行了对比，最后一段作者给出了建议。由此可知作者的态度是中立的。PassageThreeTheyalreadyguideblindanddisabledpeople;nowdogsaretobetrainedtohelppeoplewithdementia（痴呆）.Thedutiesofthese“guidedogsforthemind”willincluderemindingtheirownerstotakemedication,aswellasencouragingthemtoeat,drinkandsleepatregularintervals.Thedementiadogswillbetrainedtorespondtosoundtriggersinthehomethatpromptthemtoperformtasks.Thesecouldincludedeliveringabite-proofbagofmedicinewithanoteinsideremindingthepatienttotakeit,orwakingthemupinthemorning.TheideawasdevelopedbydesignstudentsattheGlasgowSchoolofArtandwillnowbeputintopracticebyAlzheimer’sScotlandandDogsforthedisabled.JoyceGrayofAlzheimer’sScotlandsaid:“Peopleintheearlystagesofdementiaarestillabletolivearelativenormallife,anddogshelptomaintainroutine.”TheotheradvantageofusingthepetsascompanionsisthatconversationcanbeincreasinglyconfusingforpeoplewithAlzheimer’s,butdogscangivethemasenseofsilentsupportandcompanionship.Peoplelightupwhentheyseeanimals.Theydon’tneedtocommunicateverballybuttheycanstillinteract.Youcanhaveaspeechlessbond.Thedogwouldalsoencouragetheownertotakethemoutforwalks,ensuringtheykeepexercisingandinteractingwithotherpeople.71.Asismentionedinthepassage,theguidedogswilldothefollowingexceptfor________.A.helpingensuretheownerdoingsomeexercisesB.remindingtheownertotakemedicineC.communicatingwiththeownerinanon-verbalwayD.helpingtheownerrecoverfromtheillness72.Whowilltrainthedogstoperformsuchtasks?A.Thestudentswhodevelopedtheidea.B.Theownersofthedogs.C.TheexpertsinAlzheimer’sScotland.D.Itisnotmentionedinthepassage.73.Whatistrueaboutthepeoplesufferingfromdementia?A.Theywouldliketostaywithotherpeople.B.Theycanmaintainroutine.C.Theywillgraduallylosetheabilitytoliveanormallife.D.Theywouldliketotalkinadifferentway.74.Theguidedogshelpingthepeoplewithdementiawill_____.A.respondtotheownersorderB.respondtoasounddeviceC.actontheownersinstructionsD.actonthetrainersorder75.Havingaconversationwithpeoplewithdementiawillbe______.A.difficultB.interestingC.confusingD.encouraging【译文】狗已经引导过盲人和残疾人，现在它们被训练成来帮助痴呆人。这些“心灵导盲犬”的职责包括提醒他们的主人吃药，鼓励他们吃喝和就规律的间歇性休息。这些狗将会被训练成对家里的声音触发器作出反应的狗，这样来提高它们完成任务。这些可能会包括发放一个防咬的药袋，里面有一个纸条来提醒病人吃药或者是早晨叫他们起床。这个想法是由格拉斯哥艺术学校的学生想出来的，而这个想法将由苏格兰阿尔茨海默氏症和狗残疾人付诸实施。苏格兰阿尔茨海默氏症的JoyceGray说：“在痴呆症的前期，人们还可以过着相对正常的生活，狗帮助他们维持日常生活。”把宠物当成同伴的另一个好处是狗能给他们一种沉默的支持感和陪伴感，因为和一个患有阿尔茨海默氏症的人交谈会变得越来越困惑。当人们看到动物时，他们会重新点燃对生活得希望。他们之间不需要言语的交流但是依然能交往，你可以有一个无言的约定。狗也会经常性地鼓励主人带它出去散步，以确保他们身体保持健康，与其他人进行交流。71.【答案】D【解析】从最后一段可知A正确，从第一段可知B正确，从第五段的最后一句可知C正确。72.【答案】D【解析】文中并未提到是谁训练狗来完成这些工作的。73.【答案】C【解析】从文中第四段Peopleintheearlystagesofdementiaarestillabletolivearelativenormallife可知答案74.【答案】B【解析】从文中第二段第一句话soundtriggers可知答案。75.【答案】D【解析】从文中第五段第一句话dogscangivethemasenseofsilentsupportandcompanionship.Peoplelightupwhentheyseeanimals.可知答案。PassageFourItseemsobviousthatyoudon’tgiveawayyourproductforfreebutthisisexactlywhatindierockgroupTheCrimeadidearlierthisyear.Theband’sreasoninggoeslikethis:morepeoplewilldownloadthefreealbumthanwouldpayforit.ThereforemorepeoplewillhearTheCrimea’smusic.ThesepeoplewillthenpaymoneyforconcertsbythebandandperhapsbuyaT-shirtorothermerchandise.Ifthebandplayregularconcertstocrowdsof200or300peopletheycanmakemoremoneythantheywouldfromsalesofaCD.TherewillalwaysbesomepeoplewhowantsomethingtheycanholdintheirhandssotheywillreleasetheCDintotheshopstoobutmakingmoneythroughsalesoftheirmusicisn’tthetoppriority.Thestoryillustratesthecreativethinkinggoingoninthemusicbusinessinresponsetodramaticchangesoverthelastfewyearsinthewaythatpeoplebuymusic.Salesofmusicdigitallytocomputers,phonesandMP3playersroseto$2billionin2006anincreaseofalmost100percentonthepreviousyearyetoverallrecordcompanysalesaredown.PeoplearesimplynotbuyingCDsinrecordshopsinanythinglikethenumberstheyusedto.Thistrendlookssettocontinuesothebigquestionforthemusicindustryiswhethertheycansuccessfullymanagethemovetobeingprimarilyadigitalindustrywithoutprofitsfallingtounacceptablelevels.Therearebothpositiveandnegativesigns.Ontheplusside,moreandmorepeoplearebuyingmusiconmobilephones,whichallowspeopletomakeimpulsepurchasestheycanbuyasongassoonastheyhearit.ResearchbytheUKmobileoperator3suggestedthat75percentof16to24-year-oldswantedtobuyatracktheylikedassoonastheyheardit.Withsomuchcompetitionforpeople’sdisposableincome,aproductthatyoucansellimmediatelyisabigadvantage.Thebadnewsforrecordcompanies,however,
