Mobile phones also have their dangers, according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation in
25、to our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about.However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long g
26、one when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imagination take us into another world.There was a time when some peoples lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a fam
27、iliar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced: they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that
28、 primitive existence.63The new products become more and more time-saving because .高中英语辅导网 http:/京翰教育 http:/A. time is limited B. our love of speed seems never-endingC. the prices are increasingly highD. the manufacturers boast a lot64What does “the days” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Simple life in the
29、 past. B. Imaginary life.C. Times of inventions. D. Time for constant activity.65What is the authors attitude towards the modern technology?A. Objective. B. Critical. C. Optimistic. D. Negative.66What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Machinery and human beings.B. The present and past times.C. Imag
30、inations and inventions.D. Modern technology and its influence.D“Image is everything.” An entire industry has been built upon the assumption(设想) that image is everything, but when it comes down to it, an appealing image is not enough. If there is no substance(事实) behind the image, the product, servi
31、ce or person will fail eventually.First of all, one should consider how important image is in the selling of products and services. Advertising agencies have raised the art of creating an image to a state of near perfection. Public concept of that product or service is certainly managed by the image
32、s created by the advertising agencies. But if the product or service does not live up to the image that was created, the customer will be very dissatisfied and possibly ask for their money back. For example, the Arthur Andersen accounting firm(会计事务所) had spent decades building up an image of trustwo
33、rthiness. But the recent scandal (丑闻) showed that behind that image, it cheated in business practices. Despite the previous positive image, the firm is being accused of criminal actions and it will probably not survive as a business unit. Although the image had been nearly perfect, the reality behin
34、d the image has led to the downfall of the world famous accounting firm.Similarly, personal advisers can build up a public image for politicians and movie stars. 高中英语辅导网 http:/京翰教育 http:/Putting out positive news releases, making sure that only the best photographs are published, and ensuring that t
35、he person is seen in all the right places can build up a very positive image in the view of the general commons. But once again, history is filled with examples of both politicians and movie stars that fell from grace like the story of the Hollywood actor giving in to the pressures of fame and fortu
36、ne. With people, just as with products and services, image is certainly important, but without positive substance behind the image, failure is close.To summarize, it is clear that an appealing image is extremely important to success, whether that image is related to selling a product or service or t
37、o the “selling” of a person. But image is only half of the equation(等式 方程式). What lies behind that image is every bit as important as the image itself the person or product must deliver on(履行)that image or there is little chance for long-term success.67. The downfall of the Arthour Andersen accounti
38、ng firm is due to _.A. its dishonesty in business B. its previous images C. its bad management D. its poor service68. Why did some famous people fall from grace?A. Their images were not well built up B. They failed to live up to their images.C. They felt much pressure from the public D. They paid li
39、ttle attention to fame and fortune. 69. The structure of the passage is _.A: Argument P: Point C: Conclusion70. The author tries to argue that _.A. image creates everything B. image is the key to successC. truth is unlikely ever to be equalled D. truth and image are equally important高中英语辅导网 http:/京翰教育 http:/单项选择
