Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. ‎ ‎(A)‎ In many countries of the world, people can confidently tell you the meaning of their town or city, but most people who live in Manchester, Oxford or Birmingham would not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.‎ Two thousand years ago, most people living in Britain were Celts. Even the word “Britain” is Celtic. Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra”. This is why there are so many place names in England which end in “-chester” or “-caster” –Manchester, for example.‎ The Romans never reached Wales or Scotland, and many place names there are Celtic. For example, Welsh place names that begin with “Llan” come from the Celtic word for church.‎ After the Romans left Britain, it was attacked by tribes called the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of Europe that is now Germany and Holland. Without the Roman army, it was impossible to protect the country from these people. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham” or “-ton”. Some got their name from the leader of the village, so Birmingham, for example, means “Beormund’s village”.‎ The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (“village on a hill” –a good place to build a village) and Moreton (“village by lake”, where floods could make life tough). Place names that end in “-ford” (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.‎ Twelve hundred years ago, the Vikings came to England from Scandinavia. They traded with the Anglo-Saxons but lived in their own villages. These often ended in “-by” or “-thorpe”. The name “Kirkby” means “a village with a church” and Scunthorpe was the village of a man called Skuma.‎ Finally, in 1066, England became Norman –the Normans gave us the place name “grange”, which means farm.‎ And how about London? Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants. People once believed that the United Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud, but this is very unlikely. Our best guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fastflowing river. Like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.‎ ‎56. The origin of British place names are unfamiliar to many local people because of _______.‎ ‎ A. the death of the country’s ancient languages.‎ ‎ B. the long lost history of the names.‎ ‎ C. their lack of interest in the names.‎ ‎ D. the frequent changes to the names.‎ ‎57. According to the article, Stratford-upon-Avon is most likely a town _______.‎ ‎ A. on a hill ‎ B. near a castle ‎ C. built beside a river ‎ D. with a church ‎58. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants in Britain?‎ ‎ A. The Celts –The Romans – The Vikings –The Normans –The Anglo Saxons ‎ B. The Romans –The Celts –The Vikings –The Anglo Saxons–The Normans ‎ C. The Celts –The Romans –The Anglo Saxons–The Vikings –The Normans ‎ D. The Romans –The Anglo Saxons–The Celts –The Normans –The Vikings ‎59. According to the text, where did the name for London come from?‎ ‎ A. It is puzzling and hard to confirm for sure.‎ ‎ B. It comes from the term for a fast-flowing river.‎ ‎ C. The name is short for Londinium.‎ ‎ D. The name is from the castle of a King.‎ ‎ (B)‎ Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District ‎2016 High School Video Contest Here’s the Scoop on Pet Waste!‎ Submission Deadline July 27, 2016.‎ Eligibility Ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth grade students that attend schools located in Bartow, Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, Coweta, DeKalb, Douglas, Fayette, Fulton, Forsyth, Gwinnett, Hall, Henry, Paulding and Rockdale counties are invited to participate in the video contest.

Although it has yet to be discovered, we may be closer than ever to finding a way that can slow down the aging process.‎ A recent study by researchers from Duke University in the US found that cutting one’s daily intake of calories could slow down biological aging, which means you might be able to hang on to your youthful looks a little longer.‎ Previous research has shown that calorie restrictions slow aging in worms, flies and mice. So researchers wondered if it could have the same effect on people.‎ To find out, Daniel Belsky and her team examined data from a study by the National Institute on Aging, based in the US, which involved 220 people. During the two-year study, 145 people in the restriction group cut their calorie intake by 25 percent. Meanwhile, 75 people in the control group maintained their normal diets.‎ At the start of the study, the two groups had no difference in biological age. The average participant was 38 years old, with a biological age of 37. However, after each 12-month period, participants in the restriction group saw an increase in biological age by an average of 0.11years. Meanwhile, those in the control group saw a rise by an average of 0.71 years.‎ The researchers believe the difference between these groups shows that cutting calories does slow biological aging.‎ Although they didn’t explain the reason behind this, researchers at Brigham Young University in the US provided an explanation after they carried out a similar study on mice.‎ They believe fewer calories slow down a mechanism in cells called the ribosome (核糖体), at least in mice. The mechanism is responsible for making vital proteins in cells, but with fewer calories it slows down, giving it more time to repair itself.‎ The ribosome is complex like a car, and it needs to replace the parts that wear out the fastest from time to time, according to John Price, a biochemistry professor at Brigham Young ‎ University.‎ ‎“When tires wear out, you don’t throw the whole car away and buy new ones. It’s easier to replace the tires,” Price told VOA.‎ But this doesn’t mean that people who want to look younger should start skipping meals, especially given the study’s early stage. Proper nutrition is important, Price explained.‎ ‎“Food isn’t just material to be burned –it’s a signal that tells our body and cells how to respond,” he told Science Daily.‎ ‎63. The purpose of the research was to _________.‎ ‎ A. find the most efficient way to control calorie intake.‎ ‎ B. explain why people have to maintain a normal diet.‎ ‎ C. test the influence of calorie restrictions on aging.‎ ‎ D. invent technology that keeps people young and healthy.‎ ‎64. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the experiment?‎ ‎ A. All the participants were of the same biological age at the start.‎ ‎ B. The biological age of people in the control group increased more than those in the restriction group.‎ ‎ C. Flies and mice were used to compare the results of the human test with.‎ ‎ D. Some participants were asked to double the amount of food they ate.‎ ‎65. According to John Price, ________.‎ ‎ A. the ribosome is an important cell that controls the aging process.‎ ‎ B. a higher level of calorie intake means more healthy proteins.‎ ‎ C. the fewer calories one takes in, the better the ribosome works.‎ ‎ D. reducing calorie intake could allow the ribosome to repair itself better.‎ ‎66. We can infer from the text that ________.‎ ‎ A. those who want to stay young are advised to skip meals.‎ ‎ B. people should keep a record of the energy they burn every day.‎ ‎ C. maintaining a balanced diet is not as difficult as people imagine.‎ ‎ D. we could slow our pace of biological aging by changing our eating habits.‎ Section C Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. ‎ A. Yet plus-size apparel makes up just a small part of the clothing on the market.‎ B. In turn, plus-size women shopped less because the industry was not serving them well.‎ C. Some brands, such as Michael Kors, do sell plus-size ranges but do not advertise them or display them on websites.‎ D. But the fact is that, take American for example, women’s demand for larger –size clothes is only rising.‎ E. Nike also has extended its “X-sized” sportswear range.‎ F. Gwynnie Bee, Stitch Fix and Dia & Co, for example, share information with designers on preferred styles and fits.‎ Plus-size women might be socially frowned upon (不赞成) and openly avoided by the fashion industry. ___67___‎ A study done a few years ago by Plunkett Research, a market-research firm, found that 67% of American women were “plus-size,” meaning size 14 or larger. That figure might not have changed much, but in 2016, only 18% of clothing sold was plus-size, according to NPD Group, another research firm.‎ Designers and retailers have long thought of the plus-size as high-risk. Predicting what these customers will buy can be difficult, as they tend to be more cautious about styles. Making larger clothes is more expensive; but higher costs for fabric cannot always be passed on to consumers. ___68___ “We have money but nowhere to spend it,” says Kristine Thompson, who runs a blog which has nearly 150,000 followers on Instagram.‎ At last, that is changing. Fast-fashion brands, including Forever 21 and a fashion line sold in partnership with Target, a giant retailer, have expanded their plus-size collections. ___69___‎ Revenue in the plus-size category increased by 14% between 2013 and 2016, compared with growth of 7% for all apparel (服装). Takings (营业额) were $21.3 billion last year. Social media has played an important role in changing attitudes in the fashion business, says Madeline Jones, editor and co-founder of PLUS Model Magazine.‎ Nonetheless, designer brands still hold back. ___70___ For those that are willing to take a chance, several internet startups (创业公司) that deliver personally styled outfits to individuals, including plus-size women, offer data to “straight-size” designers.‎ Not all plus-size shoppers are convinced. Laura Fuentes, a hairstylist from Abilene, Texas, says that many upmarket (高端市场的) department stores still keep their plus-size clothing sections poorly organized, badly stocked and dimly lit, if they stock larger clothes at all. Yet such complaints should be taken with a pinch of salt (有所保留), says Ms. Thompson. “We’re nowhere near where we should be but we’ve made progress,” she says.‎ IV. Summary Writing Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. ‎ Sales strategies How can a company improve its sales? One of the keys to more effective selling is for a company to first decide on its “sales strategy”. In other words, what is the role of the salesperson? Is the salesperson’s job narrative, suggestive, or consultative?‎ The “narrative” sales strategy depends on the salesperson moving quickly into a standard sales presentation. His or her pitch highlights the benefit for the customer of a particular product or service. This approach is most effective for customers whose buying motives are basically the same. ‎ The “suggestive” approach is tailored more for the individual customer. The salesperson must be in a position to offer alternative recommendations that meet a particular customer’s needs. One key aspect of the suggestive approach is the need for the salesperson to engage the buyer in some sort of discussion. The salesperson can then use the information from the customer to suggest an appropriate product or service. ‎ The final strategy demands that a company’s sales staff act as “consultants” for the buyer. In this role, the salesperson must acquire a great deal of information about the customer. They do this through market research, surveys, and face-to-face discussions. Using this information, the salesperson makes a detailed presentation tailored to a consumer’s needs. More and more sales teams are switching from a narrative or a suggestive approach to a more consultative strategy. As a result, corporations value creativity and analytical skills.‎ V.
