15、 may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless expression. When my friend Maxie says, “Have a nice day” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well. “Have a nice day. Next!” This version of the express

16、ion is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone(腔调 ) with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone elses is the managements attempt to increase business. Th

17、e expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we dont know what to say. “Oh, you just had a tooth out? Im terribly sorry

18、, but have a nice day. ” The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you dont know has tried to be nice to you. Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wron

19、g with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting, The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, its nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they

20、really don t care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like. 26. How does the author understand Maxies words? A. Maxie shows her anxiety to the author. B. Maxie really wishes the author a good day. C

21、. Maxie encourages the author to stay happy. D. Maxie really worries about the authors security. 27. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean? A. The salesgirl is rude. B. The salesgirl is bored. C. The salesgirl cares about me. D. The salesgirl says the words as a routine. 28. By sayin

22、g“ Have a nice day,” a stranger may _. A. try to be polite to you B. express respect to you C. give his blessing to you D. share his pleasure with you 29. According to the last paragraph, people say“ Have a nice day” _. A. sincerely B. as thanks C. as a habit D. encouragingly 30. What is the best ti

23、tle of the passage? A. Have a Nice Day a Social Custom B. Have a Nice Day a Pleasant Gesture C. Have a Nice Day a Heart-warming Greeting D. Have a Nice Day a Polite Ending of a Conversation B I have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. As a doctor, mother and scientist in child dev

24、elopment I believe there is nothing to recommend it, from the babys point of view. Mothers, doctors and nurses alike have no idea of where a babys blood sugar level lies. All we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily annoyed. In this state, the baby is diffi

25、cult to calm down and sleep is impossible. The baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth. It is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a four-hourly feeding schedule will make a baby satisfied. The first of the experts to advocate a strict clock-watching schedule was

26、 Dr Frederic Truby King who was against feeding in the night. Ive never heard anything so ridiculous. Baby feeding shouldnt follow a timetable set by the mum. What is important is feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks. Well, at last we have cop

27、per-bottomed research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding. The research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7, 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. By the age of 8, their IQ （智商） scores are four to f

28、ive percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable. This Research comes from Oxford and Essex University using a sample （样本） of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s, taking account of parental education, family income, a childs sex and age, the mothers health and feeding style. These results

29、 dont surprise me. Feeding according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels. I hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeding practices. 31. According to Paragraph 2, one reason why a baby cries

30、is that it feels_. A. sick B. upset C. sleepy D. hungry 32. What does the author think about Dr King? A. He is strict B. He is unkind C. He has the wrong idea. D.

32、the night B. every four hours C. whenever it wants food D. according to its blood sugar level C I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all, I was a teenage girl, and I couldnt bear people to look at me and think I was not

33、 like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads. Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work. One evening, I got off the bu

34、s about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something,“ Im awfully sorry,” I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happen

35、ed to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldnt stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived. Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for hel

36、p, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help. But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; It seemed that everyone had sudden

37、ly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next

41、e bus by herself there D. to find people more helpful there D Sports account for a growing amount of income made on the sales of commercial time by television companies. Many television companies have used sports to attract viewers from particular sections of the general public, and then they have s

42、old audiences to advertisers. An attraction of sport programs for the major U.S. media companies is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among m

43、ale viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able to sell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming. Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that

44、 might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men and that many men make family decisio

45、ns on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance. Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings(收视率 )are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from

46、 the highest income groups in the United States, including many lawyers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling high-priced cars, business and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry t

47、hese programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reach high-income consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs dont need high ratings to stay on the air. 41. Television sport p
