Advertising can be thought of "as the means of making known in order to buy or sell goods or services". Advertising aims to increase people's awareness and arouse interest. It tries to inform. and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message. The press offers a fairly cheap method. Magazines are used to reach special sections of the market. The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local markets. Television, although more expensive, can be very effective. Posters are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other ways of increasing consumer interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertising.There can be no doubt that the growth in advertising is one of the most striking features of the western world in this century. Many businesses such as those handling frozen foods, liquor, tobacco and patent medicines have been built up largely by advertising. We might ask whether the cost of advertising is paid for by the manufacturer or by the customer. Since advertising forms part of the cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is clear that it is the customer who pays for advertising. However, if large scale advertising leads to increased demand, production costs are reduced, and the customer paysless.It is difficult to measure exactly the influence of advertising on sales. When the market is growing, advertising helps to increase demand. When the market is shrinking, advertising may prevent a bigger fall in sales than would occur without its support. What is clear is that businesses would not pay large sums for advertising if they were not convinced of its value to them.1.Advertising is in the main paid for by____.A、the customerB、the manufacturerC、increased salesD、reduced prices2."Large scale" in the third paragraph means____.A、expensiveB、well-balancedC、extensiveD、colorful3.According to the passage, trade fairs 1st paragraph may____.A、replace exhibitions and marketsB、attract possible customersC、offer fun and amusementD、provide cheap goods4.Advertising is often used to____.A、deceive customersB、increase productionC、arouse suspicionD、push the sale5.The word 'media' 1st paragraph refers to____.A、the pressB、televisionC、radioD、all of the above

Passage FourStudents all over the world have to work for their education. A college education in the United States isexpensive. The costs are so high that most families begin to save for their children's education when their children are babies. Even so, many young people cannot afford to pay the expenses of full-time college work. They do not have enough money to pay for school costs. Tuition for attending the university, books for classes, and living expenses are high. There are other expenses such as chemistry and biology lab fees and special student activity fees for such things as parking permits and football tic, kets. The cost of college education increases every year. However, classrooms are still crowded with students. Some American students have scholarships or other support, but many do not.Students from other countries have money problems to overcome, too. Because students in most international programs need to have a sponsor, they work hard to earn scholarships or special loans. International students understand the value of going to school in another country. They also know that it is difficult. Yet just as Americans choose to attend American universities in spite of the difficulty, however, it is usually possible for students from abroad to work on university campuses to pay for some of the costs of their education. Some people believe that students value their education more if they work for it.48. Tuition for attending the university in the United States is ______.A. inexpensiveB. highC. free from chargeD. costless
Text 1 The cost of supporting new windfarms and nuclear power stations to meet the UK's carbon targets will add nearly￡100 to the average household energy bill by the end of the next decade,according to a govemment adviser.But the Committee on Climate Change said it expected the increase to be more than offset by savings as people switched to more efficient fridge freezers,LED bulbs and better boilers.The committee,a body of experts set up under the Climate Change Act to advise the government,found that a rise of~105,or 9%,to the average~1,160 dual fuel bill in 2016 was down to green policies.These included subsidies for windfarms and solar power through schemes such as the Renewables Ob/igation.A report by the committee predicts that meeting the UK's carbon targets would see the cost of the subsidies rise to￡200 0f an average bill of￡1,350 by 2030.However,other factors were involved in the net increase.The committee also calculated that rising wholesale energy costs and other issues will add more than￡200 a year to bills,while an ongoing switch to more energy-efficient appliances and gadgets is expected to save￡150.Matthew Bell,chief executive of the committee,told The Guardian that he thought it was worth spending the money on climate policies.“The reason we're acting to reduce our emissions is climate change poses real risks,real risks to the UK as well as round the world."The cost was relatively modest,he said,adding:"What our analysis says quite clearly is that as a proportion of total energy costs,climate costs are a small minority portion.The vast majority of your energy bill is accounted by other things,like wholesale costs and transmission costs."Some of the energy companies,such as German-owned E.ON,laid the blame for the rises partly on the cost of supporting green policies.But the Committee on Climate Change said that such policies had in fact saved￡290 a year off the average household energy bill between 2008 and 2016,because they had encouraged a shifi to A-rated fridge freezers,condensing boilers and a swing away from old time lightbulbs to energy-saving ones.Bell said that future progress on more energy-efficient appliances was slowing slightly,but there was still potential for huge savings."We're still seeing only l%oflighting being LEDs.And what we've not factored in at all is what IT will do for how we manage energy in our homes,"22.The Committee on Climate Change believed that the increase ofBritish household dual energy bill wouldA.reach more than what it had been imagine.B.be balanced by utilizing more energy-saving devices.C.eliminate the use of efficient home appliances.D.force people switch to other apparatus.
