A novel can be on the “best seller“ list with a sale of fewer than 100,000 copies, but a popular TV show might have 70 million TV viewers. TV can make anything

9、 or anyone well-known overnight. This is the principle behind “quiz“ or “game“ shows, which put ordinary people on TV to play a game for prizes and money. A quiz show can make anyone a star, and it can give away thousands of dollars just for fun. But all of this money can create problems. For instan

10、ce, in the 1950s, quiz shows were very popular in the US and almost everyone watched them. Charles Van Doren, an English instructor, became rich and famous after winning money on several shows. He even had a career as a television personality. But one of the losers proved that Charles Van Doren was

11、cheating. It turned out that the shows producers who were pulling the strings, gave the answers to the most popular contestants beforehand. Why? Because if the audience didnt like the person who won the game, they turned the show off. The result of this cheating was a huge scandal. Based on his stor

12、y, a movie under the title “Quiz Show“ is on 40 years later. Charles Van Doren is no longer involved with TV. But game shows are still here, though they arent taken as seriously. In fact, some of them try to be as ridiculous as possible. There are shows that send strangers on vacation trips together

13、, or that try to cause newly-married couples to fight on TV, or that punish losers by humiliating them. The entertainment now is to see what people will do just to be on TV. People still win money, but the real prize is to be in front of an audience of millions. 16 TV can make a beggar world-famous

14、overnight. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 17 The principle behind “quiz“ or “game“ shows is to put ordinary people on TV to play a game for prizes and money. （ A） Right （ B） Wrong （ C） Not mentioned 18 Prizes and money for winners are usually provided by TV stars and large companies. （ A）

18、es in both residential and commercial paperwork and record keeping. To get a successful grip on organizing documents, bills, and other materials, Denton suggests the following tips: 2 Create a space in which you can always do your paperwork. This is perhaps the most important element of a successful

19、 system. If you cant devote an entire desk to the task, at least invest in a rolling file cart to store active paperwork and a two-drawer file cabinet for family records. Store the rolling file cart wherever it is most convenient and comfortable to do your work, whether that is the kitchen, office,

20、or family room. 3 When in doubt, throw it out. The first step to implementing a workable filing system is to eliminate paper you dont use, dont need, or that you could easily access again elsewhere. Throw out duplicate statements, old catalogs, and all of the coupons, mailings, or offerings youll ne

21、ver have an opportunity to use or even read. 4 Set aside two days a month to pay bills. If a monthly due date doesnt fit into your cycle, call up the creditor and suggest a more convenient date. Keep two manila folders at the front of your system for current bills - one to correspond with each bill

22、- paying day and file all incoming bills. Keep a list in the front of each folder of what needs to be paid in case the invoice never arrives or gets misplaced. 5 Think of your filing system not as a rigid tool, but as a living, breathing system that can accommodate your changing needs. A good filing

23、 system is both mentally and physically flexible. Everyones needs are different, says Denton, but when devising a filing system, ask yourself: “Where would I look for this?“ Create main headings for your filing system, such as Investments, Taxes, Children, and so forth, and file individual folders u

24、nder the main headings. Never overstuff your files. 23 A Find a Place to Work on B Implementing a Workable Filing System C What Is a Good Filing System D How to Invest in a Rolling File Cart E Get Rid of Unimportant Things F Dealing with Bills 23 Paragraph 2 _ 24 Paragraph 3 _ 25 Paragraph 4 _ 26 Pa

Often,

27、its accompanied by an appeal: “Just think about those starving orphans in Africa!“ Sure, we should be grateful for every bite of food. Unfortunately, many people in the US take too many bites. Instead of staying “clean the plate“, perhaps we should save some food for tomorrow. According to news repo

28、rts, US restaurants are partly to blame for the growing bellies. A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer, with two to four times the amount recommended by the government, according to a USA Today story. Americans traditionally associate quantity with value and most restaurants try to

29、 give them that. They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little. Barbara Rolls, a nutrition professor at Pennsylvania State University, told USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began to grow in the 1970s, the same time that the American waistline began to expan

30、d. Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions. Now, apparently, some customers are calling for this too. The restaurant industry trade magazine QSR reported last month that 57 percent of more than 4,000 people surveyed believe restaurants serve portions that are too

31、large; 23 percent had no opinion; 20 percent disagreed. But a closer look at the survey indicates that many Americans who cant afford free dining still prefer large portions. Seventy percent of those earning at least $150,000 per year prefer smaller portions; but only 45 percent of those earning les

32、s than $25,000 want smaller. Its not that working class Americans dont want to eat healthy. Its just that, after long hours at low-paying jobs, getting less on their plate hardly seems like a good deal. They live from paycheck to paycheck, happy to save a little money for next years Christmas presen

33、ts. 31 Parents in the United States tend to ask their children （ A） to save food. （ B） to wash the dishes. （ C） not to waste food. （ D） not to eat too much. 32 Why do American restaurants serve large portions? （ A） Because Americans associate quantity with value. （ B） Because Americans have big bell

37、g Difference Putting a bunch of college students in charge of a $300,000 Dance Marathon, fundraiser surely sounds a bit risky? When you consider the fact that the money is supposed to be given to children in need of medical care, you might call the idea crazy. Most student leaders dont want to spend

38、 a large amount of time on something they care little about, said 22-year-old University of Florida student Darren Heitner. He was the Dance Marathons operations officer for two years. Yvonne Fangmeyer, director of the student organization office at the University of Wisconsin, conducted a survey in

39、 February of students involved in campus organizations. She said the desire for friendship was the most frequently cited reason for joining. At large universities like Fangmeyers, which has more than 40,000 students, the students first of all want to find a way to “belong in their own comer of campu

40、s“. Katie Rowley, a Wisconsin senior, confirms the surveys findings. “I wanted to make the campus feel smaller by joining an organization where I could not only get involved on campus but also find a group of friends.“ All of this talk of friendship, however, does not mean that students arent thinki

41、ng about their resumes. “I think that a lot of people do join to fatten up their resume,“ said Heitner. “At the beginning of my college career, I joined a few of these organizations, hoping to get a start in my leadership roles.“ But without passion student leaders can have a difficult time trying t

42、o weather the storms that come. For example, in April, several student organizations at Wisconsin teamed up for an event designed to educate students about homelessness and poverty. Student leaders had to face the problem of solving disagreements, moving the event because of rainy weather, and deali

43、ng with the universitys complicated bureaucracy. “Outside-of the classroom learning really makes a big difference,“ Fangmeyer said. 36 An extracurricular activity like raising a fund of $300,000 is risky because most student leaders （ A） are lazy. （ B） are stupid. （ C） are not rich enough. （ D） will

44、 not take an interest in it. 37 American students join campus organizations mostly for （ A） making a difference. （ B） gaining experience. （ C） building friendship. （ D） improving their resumes. 38 Who is Katie Rowley? （ A） Shes a senior professor. （ B） Shes a senior student. （ C） Shes a senior offic

45、ial. （ D） Shes a senior citizen 39 What do student leaders need to carry an activity through to a successful end? （ A） Passion. （ B） Money. （ C） Power. （ D） Fame. 40 The phrasal verb fatten up in paragraph 6 could be best replaced by （ A） invent. （ B） rewrite. （ C） polish. （ D） complete. 41 Milosevi

46、c s Death Former Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic was found dead last Saturday in his cell at the Hague-based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. The 64-year-old had been on trial there since February 2002. Born in provincial Pozarevac in 1941, he was the second son of a pri

47、est and a school teacher. Both of his parents died when he was still a young adult. The young Milosevic was “untypical“, says Slavoljub Djukic, his unofficial biographer. He was “not interested in sports, avoided excursions and used to come to school dressed in the old-fashioned way - white shirt an

48、d tie.“ One of his old friends said, he could “imagine him as a station-master or punctilious civil servant“. Indeed that is exactly what he might have become, had he not married Mira. She was widely believed to be his driving force. At university and beyond he did well. He worked for various firms

49、and was a communist party member. By 1986 he was head of Serbias Central Committer. But still he had not yet really been noticed. It was Kosovo that gave him his chance. An autonomous province of Serbia, Kosovo was home to an Albanian majority and a Serbian minority. In 1989, he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against. But instead he played the nationalist card and became their champion. In so doing, he changed into a ruthless and determined man. At home with Mira he p
