Copywriting is the art of sending a message in writing, especially in advertisements, for the purpose(目的) of persuading someone to do something. This is especially true when writing descriptive(描述性的) copy. Why? Because customers’(顧客) senses don’t work on paper. They only work in person. That’s why copywriters have to create a sensory experience for their customers through their words.
When copywriters create descriptions, they often leave a lot to be desired. There is no interaction(互動) or experience. Descriptions should be descriptive. Successful descriptions should fill the gap of what customers would see, hear, smell, taste or feel as if they were standing before the product. Successful descriptions should also draw customers’ attention and create an actual event as if they could be right there.
Do you make cinnamon rolls(肉桂卷)?You wouldn’t want to describe them simply as “delicious” or “smell great”. Instead, you’d want to bring your customers to the experience of enjoying them. Something like this will work better: Completely NOT your grandma’s cinnamon rolls! Freshly bake them right in your own oven. As the strong pleasant smell of these excellent rolls begins to float in the air, your nose will start to feel excited and you’ll immediately know they are worth the wait.
When writing descriptive copy, choose the senses that are most proper and focus on them. If describing food, certainly you’ll think about not only what you’re tasting, but also what you smell and see. If you’re writing travel copy, you’ll focus on sights, sounds as well as feelings. Your goal is to have your readers close their eyes and imagine they are in the same experience as you are.
小題1:The purpose of copywriting is to        .
A.create a pleasant experience
B.develop customers’ five senses
C.persuade people to do things
D.give people rich imagination
小題2:The writer develops the third paragraph mainly        .
A.by cause and effect(因果)B.by order in space
C.by order in timeD.by examples

A.People’s five senses
B.Copywriting and advertisements
C.Descriptive copywriting

Competition between international universities is heating up, as China grows as one of the largest exporters of students aiming to study abroad. “Lots of universities are becoming more and more aggressive to attract Chinese students. Every day I receive contacts from universities in the US expressing the desire to come to China to recruit students,” said Frank Joseph, a commercial officer from embassy of the United States.
One key reason why more Chinese students are able to study abroad is the economy: With China’s boom within the past decade, more families have the financial wherewithal (資金) to send their children to international universities. There will be a total of 200,000 family-funded Chinese students studying overseas in 2011, up 20 percent from last year, said Wu Zaofeng, deputy secretary general of China Education Association for International Exchange.
International institutions, Joseph said, are also facing increasingly tough financial situation with a shortage of domestic students and a drop in government subsidies (補貼). Students, especially in the US are paying high tuition fees and living expenses. Chinese students with money to spend, according to experts, can fill up the gap. Students on average spend 150,000 yuan to 200,000 yuan every year studying in US, according to statistics from the US Institute of International Education. During 2009-2010, there were approximately 81,000 Chinese students studying in the US, up 19.8 percent from 2008.
Representatives from approximately 60 universities from the United States are planning to arrive in Beijing this weekend to attract more Chinese students at this year’s fair. Besides the US, many other countries are also vying (競爭) to enroll Chinese students.
Post-study work visa put out by British government allows all international students completing a UK degree qualification to apply for a visa to stay on and look for work in UK for up to 2 years. Being the third most popular destination for international students next to the US and the UK, France has set up two types of scholarships and has handed out an increase of 26 percent in scholarship funds to Chinese students in recent years.
小題1:The reason for heating up competition between international universities is __________.
A.that China has become one of the largest exporters of the students aiming to study abroad
B.China’s boom, the students’ desire and foreign universities’ commercial motive
C.that the students in China are becoming richer and richer
D.that the students in foreign countries do not want to go to universities
小題2: Why are more Chinese students able to study abroad?
A.Because their families have enough money to send them to international universities.
B.Because they can’t go to the best universities at home.
C.Because they want to win the scholarship of foreign universities
D.Because the Chinese students enjoy following others and they want to be independent.
小題3:Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.In 2011 there will be 200,000 Chinese students studying in the US.
B.Chinese students are able to study abroad for their relatives overseas.
C.In 2011 there will be 200,000 state-funded Chinese students studying overseas.
D.There are fewer family-funded Chinese students studying abroad in 2010 than in 2011.
小題4: From the passage we can learn that __________.
A.the number of foreign students is becoming smaller and smaller
B.the international universities are short of money
C.there were approximately 81,000 foreign students studying in the US during 2009-2010

You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight.They hit one another hard.At the start they only fight with their fists.But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs.And so it goes on until one of the men crashes through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below.He is dead! Of course he isn’t really dead.With any luck he isn’t even hurt.Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catching fire, are professionals.They do this for a living.These men are called stuntmen.That is to say, they perform tricks.There are two sides to their work.They actually do most of the things you see on the screen.For example, they fall from a high building.However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress.Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training.Often a stuntman’s success depends on careful timing.For example, when he is “blown up” in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.
Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives.They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed.A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff a thousand feet high.His parachute failed to open, and he was killed.In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only.Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action.For nowadays there are stuntwomen too.

BabyCare works on a onetoone basis. Doctors, nurses, and teachers paid by BabyCare advise parents, explain toys that are designed for children at each stage of development to age six.
BabyCare opened its first store in China last June in a shopping center in central Beijing and another near Beijing Zoo. It plans to have 80 stores in China within six years.

LEEDS, England ─ A Leeds University psychology (心理學(xué)) professor is teaching a course to help dozens of Britons forgive their enemies.
"The hatred we hold within us is a cancer," Professor Ken Hart said, adding that holding in anger can lead to problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease.
More than 70 people have become members in Hart’s first 20-week workshop in London ─ a course he says is the first of its kind in the world.
These are people who are sick and tired of living with a memory. They realize their bitterness is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, said Canadian-born Hart.
The students meet in groups of eight to ten for a two-hour workshop with an adviser every fortnight.
The course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hate in these people. "People have lots of negative attitudes towards forgiveness," he said. "People confuse forgiveness with forgetting. Forgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one."
Hart and his team have created instructions to provide the training needed.
"The main idea is to give you guidelines on how to look at various kinds of angers and how they affect you, and how to change your attitudes towards the person you are angry with," said Norman Claringbull, a senior expert on the forgiveness project.
Hart said he believes forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people "want to get free of the past".
小題1:From this passage we know that ______.
A.high blood pressure and heart disease are caused by hatred
B.high blood pressure can only be cured by psychology professors
C.without hatred, people will have less trouble connected with blood and heart
D.people who suffer from blood pressure and heart disease must have many enemies
小題2:If you are angry with somebody, you should ______.
A.try your best to defeat him or her

Most recently, it's very common in students that they need a parent present for job interviews.     
Naturally, it's easy to blame the students in these situations, but the bigger problem is us.We—as parents—are so eager to shelter our kids that we fail to realize that this in itself is harming them.As the mother of two young sons, I have to remind myself constantly that the biggest responsibility I have as a parent is to help them develop the skills needed to live without me.So, I'll let them fail.
I'll let them fail because as long as they are safe and warm inside their comfort zones, they will never grow.Although failure comes along with loss, heartbreak, disappointment, etc, these will be part of growth for them.And leaving them alone is my way of helping them become equipped to fit in this world as we know it today.From terrorism and seemingly endless natural disasters, to our national debt and beyond, if we expect the next generation to stand up to the very real problems of our time, we need to stop feeding them and start teaching them how to fish.
My children now are becoming little masters of compromise(妥協(xié)),but they try to negotiate (協(xié)商) everything now.It's a small price to help them learn a skill they'll use for the rest of their lives, including when I don't accompany them on job interviews.
小題1:Why do parents accompany their kids on job interviews?
A.Because they want to protect their kids from difficulties.
B.Because they think they can help them on the questions.
C.Because their kids are too shy to attend interviews.
D.Because their kids strongly request them to do so.
小題2:According to the author, what is beneficial to kids' development?
A.Sheltering them.                     B.Keeping them safe.
C.Leaving them alone.                  C.Blaming them.

At Dallas/Fort Worth Airport, the lights are controlled by sensors that measure sunlight. They dim immediately when it’s sunny and brighten when a passing cloud blocks the sun.
A wall of windows at a University of Pennsylvania engineering building has built-in blinds (百葉窗) controlled by a computer program that follows the sun’s path. Buildings are getting smarter and the next generation of building materials is expected to do even more.
Windows could catch the sun’s energy to heat water. Sensors that measure the carbon dioxide breathed out by people in a room could determine whether the air conditioning needs to be turned up.
Many new materials and technology have been designed in the last 15 years. They are now being used in a wave of buildings designed to save as much energy as possible. They include old ideas, like “green roofs”, where a belt of plants on a roof helps the building keep heat in winter and stay cool in summer, and new ideas, like special coating for windows that lets light in, but keeps heat out.
As technologies such as sensors become cheaper, their uses spread.
The elevators (電梯) at Seven World Trade Center, which is under construction in New York, use a system that groups people traveling to nearby floors into the same elevator, thus saving elevator stops. People who work in the building will enter it by swiping (刷) ID cards that will tell the elevators their floor, readouts will then tell them which elevator to use. The building also has windows with a coating that blocks heat while letting in light.
More new building materials and technology are in development. A Philadelphia building firm is now working on “smart wrap” that uses tiny solar collectors to catch the sun’s energy and transmitters (傳輸器) as wide as a human hair to move it. They are expected to change the face of the construction industry in the next ten years or so.
小題1:________ will be developed and used in the construction industry.
A.“Green roofs” that cool or heat buildings
B.“Smart wrap” that catches the sun’s energy
C.Sunlight-measuring sensors that control lights
D.Window coating that lets light in, but keeps heat out
小題2: The elevators at Seven World Trade Center are special because they can ________.
A.send people to floors with fewer stops B.teach people how to use their ID cards
C.make people stay very cool in summer D.help people go traveling in the building
小題3: The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to ________.
A.a(chǎn) human hairB.smart wrap C.the sun’s energyD.a(chǎn) transmitter
小題4:What might be the most suitable title for the text?
A.Buildings Are Becoming Smarter B.Buildings Are Getting More Sunlight
C.Buildings Are Lacking in Much Energy D.Buildings Are Using Cheaper Materials
