         "You know, these cups bring to mind a tea quote (说法) I heard. " Mary's aunt said.
         She poured tea. There were four of them and there were four totally different cups on the table. They
    grabbed their tea cups.
         "What quote?" Mary asked.
         "Well, maybe I should rather say it is a story," Aunt said, "I heard there was this wise teacher who
    took all his students for tea. They were surprised that all the cups on the table were different. They all
    took a cup and started drinking their tea, each looking at the cups of others. The teacher let them do that
    for a while and then said: "Do you notice your behaviors? You are all looking at each other's tea cup and
    I can see some of you with the chipped (残缺的) ones are even envious of the finer cups of others. Is
    this not so?" The students agreed, amused by their own behaviors.  
         "You may have wondered why you all had different cups, but I put them here on purpose. You see —
    they represent life itself. Life is, like that tea — and the cups are like the physical circumstances of your
    life. You all got the same thing in your cup — tea. And yet you cannot truly enjoy it in your envy of
    another's cup. It's just the same with life. You forget to enjoy your own life when you concentrate on
    envying the circumstances of someone else's life.
         So now, close your eyes, and taste your own tea. Really taste it. And tell me — Did it matter from
    which cup it came?"
         Aunt finished telling her short tea story and they all sat in silence for a while, savoring (品味) their tea. A sleepy fly buzzed past; a bird sang in the tree. And it really did not matter one bit from which tea cup
    they drank.
    1. When the students found that they had different tea cups, they ______.
    A. were satisfied with their own cups
    B. were angry about the chipped cups they had been given
    C. asked the teacher to get new cups for them
    D. were curious about the difference between the cups
    2. From the text, we can conclude that ______.
    A. the teacher prepared different tea cups for each student
    B. the teacher should have given the students the same tea cups
    C. the chipped tea cups were actually made of better materials
    D. each student took their rime to choose a cup they liked
    3. By comparing the cups to the physical circumstances of people's lives, the teacher meant that people
    ______.
    A. shouldn't focus on the physical circumstances only
    B. can't change their physical circumstances
    C. should try different ways of life
    D. should always be prepared for strange things in life
    4. The teacher's message to the students was that ______.
    A. life is actually hard and boring for everyone
    B. it is natural to be envious of the lives of others
    C. everyone should learn to enjoy life
    D. people act differently in different circumstances

         You're in a department store and you see a couple of attractive young women looking at a sweater.You listen to their conversation:
         "I can't believe it-Lorenzo Bertolla! They are almost impossible to find.Isn't it beautiful? And it's a lot
    cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome."
         They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater.It's nice and the price is right.You've never
    heard of Lorenzo Bertolla, but those girls looked really stylish.They must know.So, you buy it.You never
    realize that those young women are employees of an advertising agency.They are actually paid to go from
    store to store, talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla clothes.
         Every day we notice what people are wearing, driving and eating.If the person looks cool, the product seems cool, too.This is the secret of undercover marketing.Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to
    use it.
         Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that don't pay attention to traditional
    advertising.This is particularly true of the MTV generation-consumers between the age of 18 and 34.It's a golden group.They have a lot of money to spend, but they don't trust ads.
         So advertising agencies hire young actors to "perform" in bars and other places where young adults go.Some people might call this practice misleading, but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it
    creative."Look at traditional advertising.Its effectiveness is decreasing." It is true, because everyone knows an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something.However, you don't know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.
    1. The two attractive young women were talking so as to ______.                          
    A. get the sweater at a lower price                                                      
    B. be heard by people around                                                              
    C. be admired by other shoppers                                                          
    D. decide on buying the sweater                                                          
    2. Lorenzo Bertolla is ________.                                                          
    A. a very popular male singer                                                            
    B. an advertising agency                                                                  
    C. a clothing company in Rome                                                            
    D. the brand name of clothes                                                              
    3. What can we infer from the passage?                                                    
    A. Traditional advertising will soon disappear in the market.                            
    B. The MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by all kinds of ads.            
    C. That traditional advertising is too direct may lead to its decreasing effectiveness.  
    D. Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government.                    
    4. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?                        
    A. Two Attractive Shoppers                                                                
    B. Lorenzo Bertolla Sweaters                                                              
    C. Ways of Advertising                                                                    
    D. Undercover Marketing

        You love Jay Chou's songs and you can sing some quite well. So you make a video of your
    performance and post it online for your friends to see. But what if this led to something beyond
    your wildest imagination-a career in music?
         Canadian teenager Justin Bieber, 16, has just had the magical experience: He posted homemade
    videos of his versions of songs by American singer Chris Brown online for his relatives. He received
    a phone call from Brown, telling him how much he liked his performance. His singing eventually earned
    him a fan base and a record contract. After releasing a popular EP (extended play密纹唱片) record
    in November 2009, his album My world 2.0 came out last Tuesday.
          Bieber sings ballads and songs about puppy love. But is he just another gooey (甜腻的) teen idol?
    David Malitz, a columnist with the Washington Post, doesn't think so. "If we truly want the best for
    American children, let us pause and give thanks for Justin Bieber," he writes. "After years of humdrum
    bubblegum (乏味的摇滚舞曲) from Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers, the 16yearold has thrown a
    candycoated wrench (扭转) into Disney's heartthrob (甜心) assembly line (生产线) by giving young
    fans something worth screaming their lungs out for: lovable pop songs."
         From a boy who grew up below the poverty line with his divorced mom to a star who caused
    nearriots (近乎失控) in shopping malls, even Bieber himself can't believe his overnight fame, although
    his kind of success is becoming more and more common in the Internet era.
          Interested in hockey (冰球), the national sport of Canada, the boy once put up pictures of players
    on the walls of his bedroom. He dreamed of being a hockey star and used to practice signing his
    autograph (签名). He doesn't need practice now. He signs autographs, if the girls can get close enough,
    as a music star.

    1. What did Chris Brown think of Justin Bieber's singing?
    A. He didn't like it.
    B. He liked it very much.
    C. He didn't say anything.
    D. He supported Justin Bieber.

    2. Who is a columnist?
    A. Chris Brown.  
    B. Jay Chou.
    C. David Malitz.  
    D. Miley Cyrus.

    3. What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?
    A. He had a happy family.
    B. His family was very poor once.
    C. His family was rich.
    D. His family helped him a lot.

    4. What's Justin Bieber's hobby?
    A. Singing.  
    B. Hockey.
    C. Signing.  
    D. Making records.

    5.What's the best title of the passage?
    A. Justin Bieber's overnight singing online.
    B. Justin Bieber's common experience.
    C. Justin Bieber's life.
    D. Justin Bieber's records.

          You feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and
    give without making time to fill your own needs, then it's likely you will bum out, or feel upset. When you
    take and take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways
    to fill the void in your life.
          The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your
    values. I break values up into two groups which I call being and having values. Your being values are the
    character traits (特点 ;特征)  of the ideal person you would like to be. I suggest to my clients that they
    choose three being values that they are willing to make a commitment(信奉; 信仰) to live by. An
    example of some being values are: kind ,loving, generous , inspirational, peaceful, wise  and even
    powerful. By acting on these values you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by
    being a positive role model. Mastering being these character traits becomes your life purpose.
        Your having values are, the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be
    companionship , achievement , support , being  valued  or financial  security. This is what you receive.
    You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions
    in your life.
         When you make a commitment to live by your being values, it becomes easier to make conscious
    choices rather than reactionary ones. If your usual pattem is to talk about your problems, you could
    choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, meditate (沉思 ) ,or set
    a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry, you could choose to act like a
    responsible or wise person. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to be this is the
    key to personal power.
        When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, you reinforce (加强)
    your chosen beliefs. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way
    other people think of you.
    1. The main purpose of this passage is to          .   
    A. persuade the readers to make a commitment 
    B. explain to the readers what personal values are
    C.inform the readers how to be truly happy
    D. instruct the readers how to make wise choices
    2. According to the text, living by your being values, you would       .   
    A. gain a lot of power
    B. form positive personality
    C. seek all human virtues
    D. fill your own needs
    3.The underlined word "void" in paragraph I means "          ." 
    A. a feeling of emptiness
    B. an absence of one's mind
    C. a break of continuity
    D. a state of confusion
    4. What can be inferred from the text? 
    A. Having values are better than being values;
    B. A calm person does not choose to complain.
    C.The way other people think of you decides who you are.
    D. A responsible person does not care about financial security.
