5、es speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. This type of voice dominates our lives. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside billboards all day and flashes messages to
6、 us in coloured lights all night. It has forced on us a whole new conception of the successful man as a man no less than 20% of whose mall consists of announcements of giant carpet sales. Advertising has been among Englands biggest growth industries since the war, in terms of the ratio of money earn
7、ings to demonstrable achievement. Why all this huge expenditure? Perhaps the answer is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer. At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will
8、 want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal(讨好顾客的) to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find eleven ways of making it appeal to purchasers after the
9、y have finished it, by pretending that it attracts love, or signifies manliness. If the advertising agency can do this authoritatively enough, the manufacturer is in a favorable position. Other manufacturers find advertising saves them changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal
10、 product is one which goes on unchanged for ever. If, therefore, for one reason or another, some changes seems called for how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.（分数：4.00）(1).The form of adve

15、vision shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end-with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. “Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.“ “Drink Good
16、“n Wet Root Beer.“ “Fill up with Pacific Gas.“ Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now!“ The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you“ve traveled that way before. Usually some thin
17、gs have changed-new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it“s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in
18、 time? Will the driver move into the right- or the left-hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you“ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty
19、 food can make you very thirsty between stops. The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there“s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you“ve sat with you legs crossed, with yo

34、eC.whenD.why解析：解析 从句中的 visit 是及物动词，关系代词 which 做 visit 的宾语。例如：These are the books which you ordered(这些是你订购的书。)where 为关系副词，作状语，不能用于本句。2.He was very sorry _ her at the airport.（分数：1.00）A.not to meetB.to not meetC.to have not meetD.not to have met 解析：解析 本题中动词不定式的完成式作定语。假如不定式所表示的动作在谓语所表示的动作之前发生，这时不定式需要用完
35、成式；其否定形式是在 to 前直接加 not。3.Neither of the young men who had applied for a position in the university _.（分数：1.00）A.has been acceptedB.have been acceptedC.was accepted D.were accepted解析：解析 主谓一致 neither of+名词结构作主语，neither 作代词为单数概念。 has been accepted 和 have been accepted 为现在完成时的被动形式；were accepted 要求主浯为复数。
36、4.When the couple _ here, they _ to the park.（分数：1.00）A.will come; will goB.come; goC.will come; goD.come; will go 解析：考点 时间状语从句 解析 题干中 when 引导时间状语从句，主句用将来时，从句则用一般现在时表将来。故选 D。5.John has just left New York, but I did not know he _ until yesterday.（分数：1.00）A.will leaveB.had been leavingC.leavesD.was le
37、aving 解析：解析 过去进行时 本题是 but 所联结的两个并列句。在 did not know 后面的 he until yesterday 是 know 的宾语从句。在宾语从句中，可用一般时或进行时表将来。这里是用过去进行时表过去将来。 but 所引导的句子中主句是过去时，从句肯定不会是一般将来时或一般现在时，而要用过去时态。故 A)和 C)不正确；B)为过去完成进行时，无法表示过去将来。三、Section B(总题数：5，分数：6.00)6.The children looked wonderfully (health) 1 with their bright eyes and gl
38、owing cheeks. （分数：1.00）解析：healthy7.He got to know that the earth (move) 1 around the sun at the age of four. （分数：1.00）解析：moves解析 该题考查的是主谓一致性。“地球绕着太阳转”是客观真理，用一般现在时。8.We are full of confidence that our prices are very (compete) 1 （分数：1.00）解析：competitive 解析 我们的价格非常具有竞争力，对此我们很有信心。 考点 词性转换 原句空格中应填写一个形容词作

40、为非谓语成分。catch 和 the boy 是被动关系，所以应填入过去分词形式。故正确答案为 Caught。注意首字母大写。四、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)1One of the most authoritative (权威的) voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers.
