You’re standing in the dairy section at the grocery store, searching for your favorite brand. Suddenly, you catch a smell of chocolate cookies. You forget about dairy and head for the bakery (烘烤食品) section. Guess what? You just walked into an odor (氣味) trap (陷阱)! The odor was cooked up by scientists in a lab.
For years, scientists have been studying the special powers of smell. They found that more than our other senses, smell changes our mood and helps us remember things.
So companies have begun spending thousands of dollars to scent (使充滿香味) entire stores. Artificial (人造的) scents are being used to lead customers by the nose. These smells help to get people inside and put them in the mood to buy. They even make customers remember the store later, so they’ll come back for more. Also, many companies have smartly made use of product smells. A company added lemon fragrance to its dish cleaner. They wanted people to think the soap contained “natural” cleaners. It worked!
New uses for smells are being created every day. One bank, for example, gives customers coupons (優(yōu)惠券) advertising car loans (貸款). To get people to take out a loan, bank officials hope to coat these coupons with the fresh leather smell of a new car. In Australia, telephone offices are putting sweat odor on unpaid bills. Since some people sweat when they’re scared, this smell might remind them of when they were frightened. And they’ll pay the bills right away!
What lies ahead for our noses? Smell scientists are working on some pretty far-out ideas. Would you believe TV sets that produce smells? Or how about scent diets? Certain food smells will fool your stomach into thinking it’s full. Alarm clocks will scent your bedroom with a strong pleasant smell designed to wake you up. Scientists are even working on ways to keep garbage from smelling. Researchers expect scents to help students make more sense of what they’re learning.
And just think. Someday soon, even your homework may smell nice!
小題1:How do sales methods affect customers in the stores?
A．They change customers’ preferences.
B．They persuade customers to use credit cards.
C．They make customers avoid bad and unsafe products.
D．They influence customers to make unplanned purchases.
小題2:Why do telephone offices put sweat odor on unpaid bills?
A．Because the sweat odor is a reminder of terrifying experience.
B．Because the sweat odor can change people’s attitude.
C．Because most people don’t think much of sweating.
D．Because many people dislike paying bills.
小題3:What does the author mean by saying “Someday soon, even your homework may smell nice!”?
A．Students would benefit more from smell research.
B．Students would be more willing to do homework.
C．Smell research would develop beyond our imagination.
D．Smell research would make great differences to our life.
小題4: Why does the author write this passage?
A．To encourage the store owners to use smells.
B．To expose wrong practices by smell scientists.
C．To inform the readers of an interesting subject.
D．To blame the advertisers that use smells to sell.

The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7:30 pm．Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song．
By 9:45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving．But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11:00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry．
Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6:30 - 8:30 pm means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8:00 pm or 8:30 pm means possible dinner, but 9:30 pm and any time thereafter means no food, eat beforehand, arrive late．
But this is not always the case．If asked to a students’ party at 6:30 pm, it is unaccepted for guests to appear on time. Being the first to arrive — looking eager — is social death. When my mother is asked to a party at 6:30, she likes to be there, if not on time, then no later than seven．My age group (late thirties) falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we’re young, we’re probably closer to student-time than grown-up time．
The accepted custom at present is confusing, sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element of surprise．
小題1:The underlined words “off their heads” probably mean _______．
A．tiredB．crazyC．happyD．encouraging
小題2:Jane and David’s story is used to show that _______．
A．party invitations can be confusing
B．party-goers usually get hungry at parties
C．people should ask for food at parties
D．birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull
小題3:For some young people, arriving on time for a students’ party will probably be considered _______．
A．very difficultB．particularly thoughtful
C．friendly and politeD．socially unacceptable
小題4:What is the general idea of the text? 
A．It’s safe to arrive late just when food is served．
B．It’s wise to eat something before going to a party．
C．It’s important to follow social rules of party-going．
D．There’s no need to read invitations carefully．

He got up one morning very late because he had forgotten to wind up his alarm clock. He tried to shave（刮臉）quickly and cut himself.

One warm May day, two eighteen – year – old students from San Francisco State College decided to cool off with a swim at Bakers’ Beach． The two students were named Robert Kogler and Shirley O’Neill． They headed out to sea for a distance of 50 metres． Robert was in front．
“Suddenly, I heard him scream,” Shirley recalls． “I looked round and saw this great grey thing going up in the air． The water seemed to be alive．”Robert screamed again． “It’s a shark! Get out of here!”
An eye – witness, Army Sergeant Leo P． Day was on guard at the nearby army post． He saw exactly what happened next． “I could see this boy struggling with the shark in the water,” he said． “The sea was red with blood． He was shouting and signalling someone to go back, go back． Then I saw the girl． She was swimming towards him． She completely ignored his warning．”Shirley reached Robert, and tried to take his hand．“When I pulled, all I could see was his arm, handing by a thread,” she said．
So she put her arm about Robert’s back, and started to swim towards the shore． She kept praying “Don't’ let it attack again!” That journey to the shore seemed to last for hours． At last, as they neared the shore, a fisherman threw them a line, and pulled them both the rest of the way．The young man had lost a lot of blood, and died two and a half hours later, From the teeth marks, experts identified the attacker as a Great White Shark．For what Sergeant Day called “the greatest exhibition of bravery I have ever seen,” the President of the US gave Shirley a medal for bravery．

Fifty people died, over 11,000 were injured, and 100,000 houses were heavily damaged or destroyed in an earthquake that struck North China's Hebei Province.
The quake, measuring 6. 2 on the Richter scale (里氏6 .2級) , hit the area 220km northwest of Beijing at 11: 50 a. m. on January 10, 1998.
Scientists made a report of the recent quake. They said that the area of northwestern Beijing, the joint of Shanxi and Hebei Provinces and the Inner Mongolia (內(nèi)蒙古) were most easily attacked by earthquakes measuring 6 to a bit over 7 on the Richter scale.
However, scientists did not see the recent earthquake earlier. Clouds covered a large area in the northern part of North China before the earthquake and experts say that this prevented satellites from correctly watching the temperature at the correct altitude (緯度).
Experts say that in the last ten years, about 305 earthquakes have taken place in China with 9 measuring over 7 on the Richter scale, 60 measuring over 6, and 236 measuring over 5.
Tens of thousands of people died or were injured. Loss(損失) valued over 10 billion yuan.
小題1:When the earthquake attacked the area, most people there were unlikely（不太可能的）to ____.
A．sleep in bedB．work in the fieldsC．walk in the streetsD．stay at home
小題2:The report shows that about nine earthquakes in the past ten years are measured over ____ on the Richter scale.
A．7B．5C．9D．6
小題3:It can be inferred（推斷） from the report that the damage caused by the earthquakes could be much less heavy if ____.
A．a(chǎn)ll the people stayed outside
B．the earthquake happened at midnight
C．the people had been warned earlier
D．the earthquake scale was lower than 6. 2 only
小題4:Which of the following can be reasonable except ____.
A．We can not stop earthquakes
B．Scientists are working hard at the researches on earthquakes
C．We can do our best to have fewer damages than ever
D．Nothing can be done on earthquakes
