All you have to do is to think of the names for some of the products（产品）you buy every day and youll agree that the name and the product are connected in everyones mind. In many countries, successful trade（商业）or brand（品牌）names are protected by law so that other companies（公司）cannot make a product that looks like another. People might think that they were buying one product and, in fact, buying something different. Businesses register（注册）a company or a product name with the government. In fact, more than l, 000 product names and company names are registered every hour. Many companies spend a lot of money finding the right name for their products. A good example of this is in the car industry. Some successful names for cars have powerful connection. The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong. When a U.S. company decides to sell its products in another country, it has to make sure that the product name is translated（翻译）correctly. When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China, it looked for the right name. It wanted a name that would do two things. One was to present its image in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name Coke. It took some efforts before finding the right word-which sounds similar and is translated as happiness in the mouth. Asian company names are not new to the United States. The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful. Finding the right brand name is a big business. Asian companies that sell products to foreign markets pay a lot of money to find a name that will connect with its customers（顾客）.There are even naming companies that specialize（专门）in inventing product names. These companies can ask for up to$100, 000 a word for their creations（创意）.But its worth it. Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development.( )26. Why are trade names protected by law in many countries? A. To make companies pay for naming service. B. To help people choose the best products. C. To present good images of the products. D. To prevent products from being copied.( )27. What can we learn from the passage? A. Many companies care about the cost of finding the right names. B. Creative trade names can help companies to have a larger sale（销售） C. The government often does business with naming companies. D. It is considered necessary for cars to be named after animals.( )28. Whats the best title for the passage? A. The Business of Names B. The Development of Names C. The Rules (规则)of Naming Business D. The Ways of Choosing NamesBOne hundred years ago, there were no MP5s, CDs, or even records! If you wanted to hear a song, you sang it or played it yourself. By the 1920s, all of that had changed. As people bought record players and radios, they could listen to music without learning to play it first. But recording a gramophone record (唱片)was difficult because the song had to be played perfectly all at a time. And people at home couldnt record their own sounds. Then a new invention came along that made music much easier to record and play. Magnetic tape（磁带）allowed different parts of a performance to be cut and joined together, so that mistakes could be corrected. So by the 1950s, people could listen to music on their tape players. Although these early tape players were pretty big, they allowed common people to record their own sounds at home! However, if you wanted to listen to your own music in your car in the 1950s! you were out of luck. But not for long! In the 1960s, a new product came along: eight-track (8轨音频). Eight-track players were smaller and were built into some cars. But if you wanted to listen to music while walking at the side of a street, you had to wait until the-1970s. Thats the time that brought us the cassette tape (盒式磁带). Finally, the 1980s gave us the Walkman, a small cassette player that came with little headphones（耳机）. The main music breakthrough of the 1990s was the popularity (流行)of the CD player. With a tape player, you had to listen to songs in order. And tapes used to get tangled(乱成一团) ! The CD changed all that. The quality of music on a CD was higher than that on a tape, and more music could fit on one CD. But that isnt the end of the story. Step into the 21st century, and there are MP3s, then MP4s, MP5s. I believe you know better than I do! ( )29. Whats the disadvantage of recording a gramophone record? A. Its too expensive. B. Its difficult to operate. C. There cannot be any mistakes at a time. D. Only one gramophone record can be recorded at a time.( )30. Which of the following shows the correct order of the following inventions?the magnetic tapethe cassette tapethe gramophone record the Walkmanthe eight-track playerA.B.C.D.( ) 31.

They must be fully created by the writers themselves.DDrink your milk. Its good for you! Youve probably heard that many times, and its true. Milk has calcium（钙）which is a necessary nutrient（营养）for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong. The U.S. government even requires milk as part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students should drink one cup of fat-free or low-fat milk at each meal. Last Thursday, however, a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) says, Milk is high in sugar, high in fat and high in animal protein（蛋白质）. All of them have bad effects on health. The PCRM says there are better and healthier ways to get calcium. For example, they can eat beans (大豆)and tofu. Orange juice that has calcium added to them also has the nutrient. The most important reason why parents talk about milk, or want their children to drink it, is that it is going to help build strong bones9 says Dr. Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. But milk may not be the best way to get the calcium that your body needs. Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but there are other things that affect your bone strength, such as genes(基因), how much vitamin D you take in and getting an hours worth of exercise every day. Some nutritionists (营养学家) disagree with the idea that milk isnt important. Keri G.ans, a nutritionist, says, I dont think it is good to take milk away from children, especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient needs for the day. The U.S. government is studying the problem, but a decision may be a long way off. At the same time, Marion Nestle, a professor at New York University, puts it best, Milk has been proved to have nutrients. But other foods have the same nutrients. Its just a food. Like other foods, too much might be a problem.( )36. What is mainly talked about in the first paragraph? A. The students health. B. Traditional attitudes（看法） towards milk. C. Ways to keep bones and teeth healthy. D. The practice of the U.S. government.( )37. The PCRM wanted the government to remove milk from the lunch program because _. A. drinking milk is too expensive for many parents in America B. milk cannot really help children build strong bones C. drinking too much milk might harm students health D. milk provides less calcium than beans and tofu( )38. How many factors (因素) that affect our bone strength are mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5( )39. We can infer that Keri Gans would most probably agree that _. A. milk alone can almost meet childrens nutrient needs for the day B. milk doesnt play an important role in keeping children healthy C. orange juice that has calcium added to it can play the role of milk D. milk shouldnt be removed from the lunch program( )40. What is this passage mainly about? A. Why milk is so important. B. How to keep students healthy. C. What students should eat daily. D. Whether students need milk or not.四、词汇检测（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或通过上下文，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。每空写一词。41.
