When you buy a T-shirt, or a fur coat in a store, it often carries a label(标签) telling who made it or from what store it was bought. Indeed, some labels show the dress is famous and it is very expensive, so buyers secretly wish they might be carried for ever. On the other hand, buyers who deal with the cheapest products(产品) would be pleased to do away with labels entirely.
However, There is another label more important than the one showing from which store the dress was bought. When a person buys a fur coat, or a jacket, from a store, a label telling what the product is made of should be carried to it.
This label is required by law. Besides telling what the product on show is made of, the label
should be in clear English and be where one can find it easily. The information on the label must be the truth.
The reason for this label is that most buyers today aren’t expert enough to know exactly what kind of fur or material they are buying. The buyer must believe in the store that sells the products or in what the labels say.
1. The law requires that furs carry a _______.
A. clean label B. clear label
C. white label D. secret label
2. In the article, the author says a little about _______.
A. black — market furs B. managers’ office
C. chemical laboratories D. clothing stores
3. This article mainly refers to _______.
A. making furs and clothes B. protecting buyers with law
C. keeping the buyer informed D. businessmen and sellers
4. The author doesn’t agree that ______.
A. buyers buy the clothes without labels
B. clothing stores sell cheap dresses
C. all the products have labels
D. labels are not true
5. Which of the following is true?
A. A T-Shirt seldom carries a label.
B. A fur coat with a high price often carries a false label.
C. A label only says what material the product is made of.
D. Not all buyers know the material they are buying.
【答案与解析】衣服上都有标签,根据法律规定,标签上的内容必须真实,因为许多顾客不能确切知道他们所买衣服的质地。
1. B。语义理解题。从第3段内容可以判断。
2. D。判断题。从文章内容来看,A、B、C三项内容根本没提到,只有D项内容略有涉猎。
3. C。主旨题。文章主要是告诉人们衣服标签的作用,所以,答案选C。
4. D。判断题。从文章叙述的语气,特别是第3段最后一句话The information on the label must
be the truth. 可以看出作者的态度。
5. D。判断题。从最后一段第1句话The reason for this label is that most buyers today aren’t expert enough to know exactly what kind of fur or material they are buying 可以做出正确判断。

When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual. Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.
Point 1 The telephone creates need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?
Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,” says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车)to her rescue.
Point 3 The mobile phone removes our secret. It allows Manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last meeting went.
Point 4 The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near — but we didn't meet for the first two weeks!”
Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously(同时地) on chat lines(at least my daughter does. I wouldn't know what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts(if you know any) while they're space-walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access(存取) the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.
1. How do you understand “ Point 1—The telephone creates the need to communicate” ?
A. People don't communicate without telephone.
B. People communicate because of the creating of the telephone.
C. People communicate more since telephone has been created.
D. People communicate more because of more traffic.
2. Which points do you think best support the idea that phones improve people's life?
A. Point 3 and point 4 B. Point 1 and point 5
C. Point 1 and point 3 D. Point 2 and point 5
3. It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through _______.
A. the TV screen
B. a fax machine
C. the phone line hooked up to the computer
D. a microphone
【答案与解析】本文阐述了电话不仅仅改变了我们的生活,其好处不胜枚举。
1. C。语义理解题。第2段最后一句话If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about? 已经作了最好的解释。
2. D。判断题。因为Point 1讲的是The telephone creates need to communicate,Point 3讲的是The mobile removes our secret, Point 4讲的是The telephone separates us,只有Point 2和Point 5是讲phones improve people's life。
3. C。细节题。根据Point 5中的 Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously on chat lines可知答案为C。
