1,000 cultural events expected

Beijing is expected to hold as many as 1,000 Olympics­related cultural activities,including high­level exhibitions and art performances,presentations of foreign art troops,community cultural squares,and promotions by sponsors and co­host cities.

30,000 journalists to cover the Olympics

More than 30,000 journalists are expected to come to Beijing during the Games.They pose a great challenge to the organizers in terms of how to meet their specific news coverage demands.

Two million visitors to test Beijing’s services

At least two million Chinese and half a million foreign tourists are expected to visit Beijing during the Olympics.Taking into account another 50,000 athletes and media,accommodation is a big challenge,too.122 Beijing­based star­class hotels were signed for the purpose in 2006.But how can they make 10,000 rooms available for domestic_visitors and 160,000—180,000 rooms for overseas visitors?The organizers are trying to find solutions to the problem in 2007.

The laptop is a machine which can be a mobile office;it can be used to entertain us and people can play computer games on them.One machine can perform many tasks at the same time.As technology grows,the size of the new laptop machines is decreasing.Now laptops are lighter,have smaller screen sizes,and perform better.Smaller screen laptops,which are more convenient to take along with,have been specially designed for professionals.Huge display screen laptops are still used by graphic(绘画的)designers and those who like playing computer games.

Kate Anderson became an accidental car thief when she went to pick up her daughter’s car near an Ohio University building last week.Anderson saw the nickel­gray Toyota Camry and used her daughter’s key to unlock the car,start the engine and drive home.

When Charlie Vansant left class a short time later,he found only an empty parking spot.He first assumed the car had been towed,but when the police couldn’t find a record of it,they took a theft report.

The morning after Anderson took back the car,her daughter discovered the Camry in the driveway wasn’t hers.She found Vansant’s name on paperwork in the glove compartment and looked up his phone number on the Website for the university.

When she told Vansant the car was in her driveway,“It sounded real fishy at first,like maybe she wanted to hold the thing for ransom,”Vansant said!

He eventually went to the house with a police officer,where he was reunited with his car.According to a police report,the case was closed “because of the mistaken car identity.”Anderson wasn’t charged.

Vansant seemed to blame the car company more than the “thief”.“Her key fit not only my lock,but my ignition as well—so high­five for Toyota,I guess,”he said.

Toyota spokesman Bill Kwong said  key technology wasn’t as sophisticated as two decades ago,and there were so many ways to cut a key,making it possible for such a mix­up to occur.He said the company now has a microchip embedded(嵌入)in the keys for 90 percent of its vehicles that allows them to start only with the correct key.

1.We can learn from the story that Kate Anderson____。

A.was an experienced but unlucky thief

B.took Vansant’s car away by chance

C.fould unlock any car with her special key

D.was accused of theft and put into prison

2.When Charlie Vansant received the phone call,he___。

A.ran as fast as he could to the police station

B.felt someone was playing a joke on him

C.suspected he would be forced to pay for the car

D.went directly to Anderson and collected his car

3.Who should be responsible for the accident?——

A.Toyota Camry.

B.Charlie Vansant.

C.Toyota Company.

D.The police.

4.According to the passage,it can be learned that____

A.the daughter is more honest than her mother

B.many thefts occurred because the same keys were used

C.Toyota Camry is a kind of car,which is easier to unlock

D.the car producers should pay more attention to car identity

Making an advertisement for television often costs more than a movie. For example, a two-hour movie costs $6 million to make. A TV commercial can cost more than $ 600 a second. 54  Which is more valuable, the program or the ad? In terms of money---and making money is what television is all about—the commercial is by far the most important.

Research, market testing, talent, and money—all come together to make us want to buy a product.  55  The sales of charm went up once the ads began. TV commercials actually buy their way into our head.  56 

And the ads work because so much time and attention are given to them.  57 If you want to get a lower-middle-class buyer, make sure the announcer has a tough, manly voice. Put some people in the ad who work with their hands. If you want to sell the products to an upper-class audience, make sure that the house, the furniture, and the hairstyles are the types that the group agree with . if you want the buyer to feel superior to the character selling the product, then make that person so stupid or silly that everyone will feel great about himself or herself.

We laugh at commercials. We don’t think we pay much attention to them.  58 The making of a TV commercial that costs so much money is not a kid stuff. It’s a big,big business. And it’s telling us what to think, what we need, and what to buy. To put it simple, the TV commercial is a form of brainwashing.

A.No matter how bad we think a commercial is, it works.

B.And this does not include the cost of paying for air time.

C.We, in return, buy the product.

D.The purpose of all the efforts made in producing TV commercials is to show how valuable the product is.

E. Here are some rules of commercial ad making.

F. TV commercials are a good guide to buyers.

G. But evidence shows we are kidding ourselves.
