[03:39.85]Q: What are they talking about on the phone?
[03:43.79]Section B   Passage One
[03:48.23]Packaging is an important form of advertising.
[03:53.09]A package can sometimes motivate someone to buy a product.
[03:58.55]For example,a small child might ask for a breakfast food
[04:04.40]that comes in a box with a picture of a TV character.
[04:09.55]The child is more interested in the picture than in breasfast food.
[04:15.29]Pictures for children to colour or cut out.
[04:20.13]games printed on a package or small gifts inside a box
[04:26.68]also motivate many children to buy products--or to ask their parents for them.
[04:33.63]Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing.
[04:39.48]Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this.
[04:45.44]Although a similar product in a plain container might cost less
[04:51.79]people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish
[04:58.84]because they believe the container is free.
[05:03.49]However,the cost of the container if added to the cost of the product.
[05:09.84]The size of a package also motivates a buyer.
[05:14.59]Maybe the package has "Economy Size" or "Family Size" printed on it.
[05:21.04]This suggests that the large size has the most product for the least money.
[05:28.18]but that is not always true. To find out,
[05:33.22]a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit.
[05:39.57]The information on the package should provide some answers.
[05:45.13]But the important thing for any buyer to remember
[05:50.07]is that a package is often an advertisement.
[05:55.03]The words and pictures do not tell the whole story.
[06:00.07]Only the product inside can do that.
[06:04.64]11. What does "motivate" mean according to this passage?
[06:10.29]12.What does "A buyer will get something for nothing"most probably mean?
[06:17.55]13. Which of the following statements is NOT mentioned in the passage?
[06:24.29]14. What suggestion does the author give in the passage?
[06:30.45]Passage Two
[06:33.51]Artificial flowers are used for scientific as well as for decorative purposes.
[06:40.35]They are made from a variety of materials.
[06:45.00]Such as wax and glass
[06:48.76]so skillfully that they can scarcely be distinguished from natural flowers
[06:54.90]In making such models painstaking skill artistry are called for
[07:01.36]as well as thorough knowledge of plant structural.
[07:06.50]The collection of glass flowers in the Botanical Museum of Harvard University
[07:12.85] is the most famous in North America
[07:17.00]and is widely known throughout the scientific world.
[07:21.84]In all, there are several thousand models in colored glass
[07:27.37]the work of two artist--naturalists
[07:31.92]Leopold Blaschka and his sone Rudolph.
[07:37.09]The intention was to have the collection represent
[07:41.43]as least one member of each flower family native to the United States
[07:47.77]Although it was never completed
[07:51.54]it contains more than seven hundred species
[07:56.40]representing 164 families of flowering plant
[08:02.74]a group of fruits showing the effect of fungus disease
[08:08.10]and thousands of flower parts and exaggerated detail
[08:13.64]Every detail of these is accurately reproduced in color and structure
[08:20.38]The models are kept in locked cases
[08:24.53]as they are too valuable and fragile for classroom use.
[08:30.09]15.Which of the following statements about Leopole and Rudolph Blashchka is true?
[08:37.83]16.What was the goal of Leopole and Rudolph Blaschka?
[08:44.28]17.Which of the following is not included
[08:49.35]in the display at the Botanical Museum of Harvard University?
[08:56.19]Passage Three   Cheating:
[09:00.34]The income-tax deadline approaches and some tax-payers'thoughts turn to it.
[09:07.19]Test time approaches and some students' thoughts turn to it.
[09:12.52]"You want something you can't get by behaving within the rules
[09:18.34]and you want it badly enough you'll do it regardless of any guilt or deep regreet
[09:25.19]and you're willing to run the risk of being caught
[09:29.73]That's how Ladd Wheele
[09:33.28]psychology professor at the University of Rochester in New York defines cheating.
[09:40.44]Many experts believe cheating is on the rise.
[09:45.20]"We're suffering a moral breakdown," Pindard says.
[09:50.13]"We're seeing more of the kind of person
[09:54.47]who regards the world as a series of thing to be dealt with.
[09:59.51]Whether to cheat depends on whether it's in the person's interest.
[10:04.94]He does,however,see less cheating among the youngest students.
[10:10.61]Richard Dienstbier,psychology professor at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln,
[10:17.35]believes that society's attitudes account for much of the increasing in cheating.
[10:24.12]"Twenty years ago if a person cheated in college."society said:
[10:30.36]'That is extremely serious.
[10:34.23]you will be dropped for a semester if not kicked out permanently,"he says.
[10:40.47]"Nowadays,at the University of Nebraska,for example,
[10:45.93]it is the stated policy of the College of Arts and Sciences
[10:51.78] that if a student cheats on an exam
[10:56.04]the student must receive an 'F' on what he cheated of.
[11:01.19]That's nothing
[11:04.03]If you're going to fall in the examination anyway, why not cheat?"
[11:09.88]Cheating is mostly in situation where the vital interests are high
[11:16.23]and the chances of getting caught are low.
