I love charity (慈善) shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you find quite a few of them on every high street. The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. You can get things you won"t find in the shops anymore. The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, and you are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods. The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charity"s appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful it had been flooded with donations (捐赠物). They decided to set up a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK. My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find children"s books, all 10 or 20 pence each. Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, although there is often a manager who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, although they don"t encourage this, rather ask people to bring things in when the shop is open. The shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than £110 million a year, funding (资助) medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. What better place to spend your money? You get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense. You provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on the environment. |
1. The author loves the charity shop mainly because of ____. |
A. its convenient location B. its great variety of goods C. its spirit of goodwill D. its nice shopping environment |
2. The first charity shop in the UK was set up to ____. |
A. sell cheap products B. deal with unwanted things C. raise money for patients D. help a foreign country |
3. Which of the following is TRUE about charity shops? |
A. The operating costs are very low. B. The staff are usually well paid. C. 90% of the donations are second-hand. D. They are open twenty-four hours a day. |
4. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage? |
A. What to Buy a Charity Shops. B. Charity Shop: Its Origin & Development. C. Charity Shop: Where You Buy to Donate. D. The Public"s Concern about Charity Shops. |

When you are travelling, whether on business or for pleasure, you often need to stay in a hotel. The kind of hotel you choose probably is decided above all according to how much money you want to spend. There are small hotels with very few services, where the prices are low, or there are large hotels with all the very latest comforts, where you could spend all the money you have in the bank for one very comfortable night. There are several different kinds of people who go to hotels. Some want to live, rather than just stay, in a hotel; the hotels which are designed to meet their needs are called residential hotels. How- ever, most people who stay in hotels are either business people or tourists on holiday. In most hotels, there are two kinds of rooms: single rooms, for the use of one person, and double rooms, for the use of two people. In addition, in large hotels, there are also suites (套房),which include two or more rooms connected together-perhaps a bedroom and a living room. They are for people who are very rich or very important. |
1. One"s choice of a particular hotel is made mainly according to _____. |
A. how much one is willing to pay for a night B. whether one is travelling on business or for pleasure C. whether the hotel is in the central part of a city D. how good the services of the hotel are |
2. If the president of a certain country comes, he will _____. |

In the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. Many TV stations, newspapers, magazines, radio stations are privately (私下地) owned. The government does not give them money. So where does the money come from? From advertisements. Without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses. Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is? Through the years, people have given different answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of "keeping your name before the public". And some people thought that advertising was "truth well told". Now more and more people consider it in this way: Advertising is the paid, non-personal, and usually persuasive presentation of goods, services and ideas by some certain sponsors (赞助商) through various media. First, advertising is usually paid for. Various sponsors pay for the advertisements we see, read, and hear over the various media. Second, advertising is non-personal. It is not face-to-face communication. Although you may feel that a message in a certain advertisement is aimed directly at you, in fact, it is directed at large groups of people. Third, advertising is usually persuasive. Directly or indirectly it asks people to do something. All advertisements try to make people believe that the product, idea, or service advertised can benefit them. Fourth, the sponsors of the advertisement must show their names. From the advertisement, we can see if the sponsor is a company, or a single person. Fifth, advertising reaches us through old and modern mass media. Included in the old media are newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and films. Modern media include emails, matchbox covers, and boards on top of buildings. |
1. The existence of the privately owned mass media depends on the support of ____. |
A. the government B. their owners" families C. advertisements D. the TV stations |
2. The passage seems to say that different ideas of advertising are given due to ____. |
A. the change of time B. the subject of the advertisements C. people"s age difference D. people"s different opinions |
3. Which of the following is considered modern mass media? |
A. Newspapers B. Emails C. Magazines D. Films |
4. According to the passage, which of the following statements about advertisements i8 NOT true? |
A. The sponsors are always mentioned. B. Advertising must be honest and humorous. C. There is the description of things advertised. D. Advertising is meant for large groups of people. |

Interviewer: "Marjorie Scardino, you are leading one of the top companies in the U.K., and you"ve been voted business woman of the year. What qualities do you need to run a large company effectively?" Marjorie Scardino: "Well, I think different companies probably require different qualities, but for me there are only a few simple qualities that cut across all requirements, and those are courage and imagination and empathy. And by empathy, I mean, having the ability to put yourself in other people"s positions and understand how they feel about situations and ideas." Interviewer: "Which business leaders do you admire and why?" Marjorie Scardino: "I think the best business leaders are probably ones we don"t know about, not the stars we read in the newspapers. I think they"re probably the ones who have had a great business idea and have seen the desired result. So the business leaders I most admire right now are those managers in Pearson who are achieving our goals of double-digit earnings growth." Interviewer: "What do business leaders actually do?" Marjorie Scardino: "My staff would probably say this was a really excellent question they ask themselves every day. I think what they do is just what I"ve said the business leaders I admire do. They create a business idea, and they see it through." Interviewer: "As a leader, how do you motivate your employees?" Marjorie Scardino: "I"d like to think we motivate each other. I think my job is to make sure the company has a purpose, because I think people like to work for a company that has a reason for being, that they can identify with and feel good about. I think that I have to communicate well with them everything that"s going on and everything I"m trying to do in a clear way. And then in return I think they inspire me to think more adventurously and to think more carefully about how to inspire them and how to build a better business. So, it"s sort of cooperation." Interviewer: "Do you think leaders are born or made?" Marjorie Scardino: "I think it"s probably a bit of both. All human beings obviously are born with certain qualities, and certain common features. But I"ve seen so many people in my life who have, using those basic qualities, re-invented themselves several times as they"ve gone into new situations. You know, you"re a certain kind of person when you"re in school, and your friends know who you are. And then as you grow up you go into new situations and become somebody else. So, people who were never leaders in school become the great business leaders of our time. So, I would have to say, mostly it"s made, but you have to use what you"re born with." |
