Who were these visitors？ What had happened to the students from Earth？“You were 35 who we are.” The tallest visitor said. “I am Obediah.”“Did you 36 my mind？”Angela asked.“Of course. We all have that 37 .”Obediah said. Then he pointed at Jason.“You dont believe we came from Earth，do you？”“No, I dont. Where are you from？”Jason asked.“We lived on Earth many centuries ago，”Obediah said.“Weve been 38 to visit you.”“Why？ Who do you want to see？”Angela asked，moving away.Obediah did not answer.

If there is no substance behind the image，the product，service or person will fail at length.First of all，one should consider how important image is in the selling of products and services. Advertising agencies have raised the art of creating an image to a state of near perfection. Public concept of that product or service is certainly managed by the images created by the advertising agencies. But if the product or service does not live up to the image that was created，the customer will be very dissatisfied and possibly ask for their money back. For example, the Arthur Andersen accounting firm had spent decades building up an image of trustworthiness. But the recent scandal showed that behind that image, it had dishonest business practices. Despite the previous positive image, the firm is being accused of criminal actions and it will probably not survive as a business unit. Although the image had been nearly perfect，the reality behind the image has led to the downfall of the world famous accounting firm.Similarly，personal consultants can build up a public image for politicians and movie stars. Putting out positive news releases，making sure that only the best photographs are published，and ensuring that the person is seen in all the right places can build up a very positive image in the view of the general commons. But once again, history is filled with examples of both politicians and movie stars that fell from grace like the story of the Hollywood actor giving in to the pressures of fame and fortune. With people，just as with products and services, image is certainly important, but without positive substance behind the image，failure is close.To summarize, it is clear that an appealing image is extremely important to success, whether that image is related to selling a product or service or to the “selling”of a person. But image is only half of the equation. What lies behind that image is every bit as important as the image itselfthe person or product must deliver on that image or there is little chance for long-term success.51The downfall of the Arthur Andersen accounting firm is due to _.Aits bad management Bits previous imagesCits dishonesty in business Dits poor service 52Why did some famous people fall from grace？ABecause their images were not well built up. BBecause they failed to live up to their images.CBecause they felt much pressure from the public.DBecause they paid little attention to fame and fortune. 53The structure of the passage is_.54The author tries to argue that_.Aimage creates everything Bimage is the key to successCtruth goes hand in hand with image Dtruth and image are equally important BYoure in a department store and you see a couple of attractive young women looking at a sweater. You listen to their conversation：“I cant believe ita Lorenzo Betrolla! They are almost impossible to find. Isnt it beautiful？ And its a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome”.They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater. Its nice and the price is right. Youve 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 dont pay attention to traditional advertising. This is particularly true of the MTV generationconsumers between the age of 18 and 34It is a golden group. They have a lot of money to spend, but they dont 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”.However，one might ask what exactly is“real”about of young women pretending to be enthusiastic about a sweater. Advertising executives would say its no less real than flu ad. The difference is that you know an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something. You don t know a conversation you overhear is just a performance.55The two attractive young women were talking so that they could_.Aget the sweater at a lower price Bbe heard by people aroundCbe admired by other shoppers Ddecide on buying the sweater 56Lorenzo Bertolla is_.Aa very popular male singer Ban advertising agencyCa clothing company in Rome Dthe brand name of a sweater 57Which of the following can be inferred from the passage？AThe two girls are in fact employed by the Lorenzo Bertolla Company.BThe MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by ads.CTraditional advertising is becoming less effective because its too direct.DUndercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government. 58Which of the following would be the best title for the text？ATwo Attractive Shoppers BLorenzo Bertolla SweatersCWays of Advertising DUndercover Marketing CReading poems is not exactly an everyday activity for most people. In fact，many people never read a poem once they get out of high school.It is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case in America. In the nineteenth century，a usual American activity was to sit around the fireside in the evening and read poems aloud. It is true that there was no television at the time，nor movie theaters，nor World Wide Web，to provide diversion. However，poems were a source of pleasure，of self-education，of connection to other people or to the world beyond ones own community. Reading them was a social act as well as an individual one，and perhaps even more social than individual. Writing poems to share with friends and relations was，like reading poems by the fireside，another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life.How did things change？ Why are most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry，and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well w
