The hottest show this summer---"the Voice" just finished on Sunday at the Shanghai Stadium. But the show that had a good start didn’t end to everyone’s satisfaction. The two and a half hour show dragged on for more than four hours because of the huge amount of advertising, which the audience and residents living nearby could hardly bear.
This summer, something hotter than the weather came to Shanghai. That is the Voice of China. The show soon became a cash cow for the organizer as the advertisement prices reached 1.16 million yuan for 15 seconds. And the show has earned more than 100 million yuan up to now in ad income only,
But the organizers’ bliss was audiences’ melancholy.
In the final live show on Sunday, about 14 rounds of advertisements were aired, each of which came at a crucial result-announcing moment.
Frequently interrupted by advertisements, some live audience members complained that the show wasn’t worth its ticket prices of 180 to 1680 yuan.
The planned two and a half hour show went two hours overtime because of the advertising. This annoyed audience members, and touched the nerves of residents living near the site.
Someone called the police, and the show is now facing punishment for going over-time and disturbing residents late at night

    Why didn’t “the Voice” make audience satisfied?

    2. B.
      Because it had a good start but it failed to make audience satisfied

試題分析:本文主要講述的是在中國(guó)好聲音這個(gè)節(jié)目上,廣告過多,讓觀眾產(chǎn)生了厭倦的情緒。
1.D 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第一段最后3行The two and a half hour show dragged on for more than four hours because of the huge amount of advertising, which the audience and resid。ents living nearby could hardly bear.可知在最后的表演中有太多的廣告,引起了觀眾的不滿,故D正確。
2.B 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句And the show has earned more than 100 million yuan up to now in ad income only,說明僅僅在廣告上久賺了100 million。而不是全部收入。故B項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。
3.C 推理題。根據(jù)第四段In the final live show on Sunday, about 14 rounds of advertisements were aired, each of which came at a crucial result-announcing moment.
說明在此處的表演里有太多的廣告,這讓觀眾很難受。故該詞是指難受,C正確。

When I was fourteen, I earned money in the summer by cutting lawns(草坪), and within a few weeks I had built up a body of customers. I got to know people by the flowers they planted that I had to remember not to cut down, by the things they lost in the grass or struck in the ground on purpose. I reached the point with most of them when I knew in advance what complaint was about to be spoken, which request was most important. And I learned something about the measure of my neighbors by their preferred method of payment: by the job, by the month—or not at all.

Mr. Ballou fell into the last category, and he always had a reason why. On one day, he had no change for a fifty, on another he was flat out of checks, on another, he was simply out when I knocked on his door. Still, except for the money apart, he was a nice enough guy, always waving or tipping his hat when he’d seen me from a distance. I figured him for a thin retirement check, maybe a work-related injury that kept him from doing his own yard work. Sure, I kept track of the total, but I didn’t worry about the amount too much. Grass was grass, and the little that Mr. Ballou’s property comprised didn’t take long to trim (修剪).

Then, one late afternoon in mid-July, the hottest time of the year, I was walking by his house and he opened the door, mentioned me to come inside. The hall was cool, shaded, and it took my eyes a minute to adjust to the dim light. 

“I owe you,” Mr Ballou said, “but…”

I thought I’d save him the trouble of thinking of a new excuse. “No problem. Don’t worry about it.”

“The bank made a mistake in my account,” he continued, ignoring my words. “It will be cleared up in a day or two. But in the meantime I thought perhaps you could choose one or two volumes for a down payment.

He gestured toward the walls and I saw that books were stacked (堆放) everywhere. It was like a library, except with no order to the arrangement.

“Take your time,” Mr. Ballou encouraged. “Read, borrow, keep, or find something you like. What do you read?”

“I don’t know.” And I didn’t. I generally read what was in front of me, what I could get from the paperback stack at the drugstore, what I found at the library, magazines, the back of cereal boxes, comics. The idea of consciously seeking out a special title was new to me, but, I realized, not without appeal--- so I started to look through the piles of books.

“You actually read all of these?”

“This isn’t much,” Mr. Ballou said. “This is nothing, just what I’ve kept, the ones worth looking at a second time.”

“Pick for me, then.”

He raised his eyebrows, cocked his head, and regarded me as though measuring me for a suit. After a moment, he nodded, searched through a stack, and handed me a dark red hardbound book, fairly thick.

The Last of the Just,” I read. “By Andre Schwarz-Bart. What’s it about?”

“You tell me,” he said. “Next week.”

I started after supper, sitting outdoors on an uncomfortable kitchen chair. Within a few pages, the yard, the summer, disappeared, and I was plunged into the aching tragedy of the Holocaust, the extraordinary clash of good, represented by one decent man, and evil. Translated from French, the language was elegant, simple, impossible to resist. When the evening light finally failed I moved inside, read all through the night.

To this day, thirty years later, I vividly remember the experience. It was my first voluntary encounter with world literature, and I was amazed by the concentrated power a novel could contain. I lacked the vocabulary, however, to translate my feelings into words, so the next week. When Mr. Ballou asked, “Well?” I only replied, “It was good?”

“Keep it, then,” he said. “Shall I suggest another?”

I nodded, and was presented with the paperback edition of Margaret Mead’s Coming of Age in Samoa (a very important book on the study of the social and cultural development of peoples—anthropology (人類學(xué)) ).

To make two long stories short, Mr. Ballou never paid me a cent for cutting his grass that year or the next, but for fifteen years I taught anthropology at Dartmouth College. Summer reading was not the innocent entertainment I had assumed it to be, not a light-hearted, instantly forgettable escape in a hammock (吊床) (though I have since enjoyed many of those, too). A book, if it arrives before you at the right moment, in the proper season, at an internal in the daily business of things, will change the course of all that follows.

1.Before his encounter with Mr. Ballou, the author used to read _____________.

A.a(chǎn)nything and everything                  B.only what was given to him

C.only serious novels                      D.nothing in the summer

2.The author found the first book Mr. Ballou gave him _____________.

A.light-hearted and enjoyable               B.dull but well written

C.impossible to put down                   D.difficult to understand

3.From what he said to the author we can guess that Mr. Ballou _______________.

A.read all books twice                     B.did not do much reading

C.read more books than he kept             D.preferred to read hardbound books

4.The following year the author _______________.

A.started studying anthropology at college

B.continued to cut Mr. Ballou’s lawn

C.spent most of his time lazing away in a hammock

D.had forgotten what he had read the summer before

5.The author’s main point is that _____________.

A.summer jobs are really good for young people

B.you should insist on being paid before you do a job

C.a(chǎn) good book can change the direction of your life

D.books are human beings’ best friends

Every human being,  36 what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is  37 dispose of it.
