14、ukushima power plant in Japan, which followed the deadly earthquake two weeks ago, has caused an unexpected reaction in China.A sudden panic buying of salt occurred in many areas of ourcountry about a week after the disaster. Salt in these districts was almost bought up overnight. Some sellers wante

15、d to make a fortune by raising the price. The panic buying was caused by two major rumors on the Internet: First, iodized ( 含碘的 ) salt can protect against radiation. Second, there might be a fall in sea-salt production following the nuclear pollution of the ocean. Such fears are not new. The same ki

16、nd of panic happened with vinegar during the SARS outbreak and garlic in the time of the influenza period.How can rumors like this spread in such a large country as China? Chen Fang, a reporter with the2China Youth Daily said that many Internet users say there is a“ crisis of trust” in today“ Expert

17、sdon havet enough credibilityand people don trust all government announcements,either.” Chen said.However, Chen added that the rumors should not be exaggerated (夸大 ). Many salt-buyersdidn t care; others simply failed to understand what experts and governments were talking about.They just did as thei

18、r neighbors and friends did. It was a case of the blind following the blindthat was the real reason behind the big increase in the demand for salt.On March 20, the Ministry of Commerce said:“ The panic buying of salt has stopped and themarket is back to normal.” He also said China has enough salt to

19、 satisfy demand.Now everything is back to normal, many want to return the salt they bought. But in the view ofthe Xinhua Daily Telegraph,“ It is true that these people paid extra money to buy the salt, butthey created the crisis in the first place and caused the price to rise.” The newspaper cont“ S

20、o there is no reason why they should get the money back.”Perhaps consumers should keep the salt to remind themselves that often rumors are withoutfoundation.56. What is the best title of the passage?A. Crisis of trustB. Leak causes panicC. A funny rumorD. The blind following the blind57. Which is NO

21、T the reason for which many people buy up iodized salt? A. People are too ready to believe rumors.B. People are afraid of a sea-salt shortage. C. People find it a chance to make a fortune.D. People think it protective to fight against radiation.58. What is the Xinhua Daily Telegraph s attitude towar

22、ds-buyers?the saltA. They should have only themselves to blame.B. They should be punished for their activity.C. They should trust experts and governments.D. They should return the salt and get the money back.59. What is the tone of the writing?A. Considerate.B. Persuasive.C. Doubtful.D. Objective.BW

23、hen I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, thecomputer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “ thephone ”Personally,. I could do withoutthephone entirely, which makes me unusual, because the telephone is changing our lives more thanany other piece of technology.

24、Point 1. The telephone creates the need to communicate,in the same way that more roadscreate more traffic.

25、thing to talk about?Point2. The mobile phone means thatwe are never alone.“ Themobilesaved my life, says”Crystal Johnstone.

The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says,“ We worked in

27、separateoffices but I could see him throughthe window. Itwas easy to gethis number. We weresonear but we didn t meet for the first two weeks!”Point 5. The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to severalcomplete strangers simultaneously ( 同时地 ) on chat lines (at le

28、ast my daughter does. I wouldn tknow what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if youknow any) while they re-walkingspace. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, wecan access the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.60.How do you understand Poi

34、alf. Now,” all parts of an advertising programme are properly measured and researched.What makes a good advertisement? There have been major changes in advertising in the past sixty years. People read advertisements partly for information and partly for pleasure. Today's advertisements often sta

35、rt with a question, or a puzzle, with the purpose of attracting the reader's attention. Of course, most advertisements contain information. But this is usually contained in a text that is interesting and often funny. Humour is very important. Sometimes advertisements tell a story, or the story m

36、ay be continued over a number of advertisements. However, there is a danger in this. It is possible that the reader or viewer will remember the advertisement but not the name of the product.64.The purpose of advertising is _.4to increase product salesto make a product much betterto spend more moneyt
