Attention STARBUCKS

Owners of Stainless Steel Travel Mug

Mug lid Recall---16 oz Stainless Steel Travel Mug

We’ve recognized a fault at the cup. The fault might cause some lids to lift slightly from the body of the mug, and could possibly account for injury from hot liquid leaking(漏). So, we have given a lid recall notice immediately. The notice is only about STARBUCKS 16 oz Stainless Steel Travel Mugs which were sold between November 2012 and February 2013. The bottom of the mug is printed with “ThermoSServ”, the distributor’s name. There is not any printing on the mug handle.

At STARBUCKS, customers’ safety is valued above anything else. Therefore, no matter whether your lid is leaking , for your safety, we request you bring your mug to your nearest STARBUCKS ( NOT including Esso STARBUCKS), where they are sure to exchange the lid for a new lid that fits well and safely. The new lids are going to arrive March 1, 2013.

Don’t use your mug until you exchange the lid, please.

Here’s what you do:

* Please do not use your mug until you have exchanged the lid for a new one.

* New lids will arrive March 1, 2013.

* Return your travel mug to a STARBUCKS store.

* Your lid will be exchanged for a new lid.

If you’d like to return the entire mug, bring it back at any time for a full repayment.

If you have any questions about this recall, please call us at:

【解析】試題分析:文章大意:本文是對一種16 oz 不銹鋼旅游杯子蓋的一則召回廣告。

1.作者意圖題。根據(jù)文章一開頭Mug lid Recall---要召回16 oz杯子蓋,可知作者寫作意圖是讓人們來換杯子蓋。答案選B。

2.、買16 oz不銹鋼旅游杯子的人。

3.16 oz Stainless Steel Travel Mugs which were sold between November 2012 and February 2013.可知,要召回的杯子的銷售日期是2012年11月到2013年2月,而不是在此期間內(nèi)還回杯子蓋。所以D項(xiàng)不正確。答案選D。

4.理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段At STARBUCKS, customers’ safety is valued above anything else.可知,正確答案選D、STARBUCKS很在乎顧客的安全。

5.文章出處題。縱觀全文這是一篇關(guān)于杯子蓋的召回廣告,所以自然出于廣告。答案選B。

Among rich countries, people in the United States work the longest hours. They work much longer than in Europe. This difference is quite surprising because productivity(生產(chǎn)力) per hour worked is the same in the United States as it is in France, Spain and Germany, and it is growing at a similar speed.

In most countries and at most times in history, as people have become richer they have chosen to work less. In other words they have decided to “spend” a part of their extra income on a fuller personal life. Over the last fifty years Europeans have continued this pattern, and hours of work have fallen sharply. But not in the United States. We do not fully know why this is. One reason may be greatly lower taxes in America, which increase the rewards to work. Another may be more satisfying work, or less satisfying personal lives.

Longer hours do of course increase the GDP(國內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值). So the United States has produced more per worker than, say, France. The United States also has more of its people at work, while in France many more mothers and older workers have decided to stay at home. The overall result is that American GDP per head is 40% higher than in France, even though productivity per hour worked is the same.

It is not clear which of the two situations is better. As we have seen, work has to be compared with other values like family life, which often get lost in its interest. It is too early to explain the different trends(趨勢)in happiness over time in different countries. But it is a disappointing idea that in the United States happiness has made no progress since 1975, while it has risen in Europe. Could this have anything to do with trends in the work-life balance?

1.Which of the following countries has more of its people at work?

A. Spain. B. France. C. Germany. D. America.

2.What message can we get from the text?

A. The GDP of Europe is higher than that of America.

B. Two possible reasons are given for working longer hours in the US.

C. People all over the world choose to work less when they are richer.

D. Americans are happier than Europeans.

3.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. Americans and Europeans

B. Staying at Home

C. Work and Productivity

D. Work and Happiness
