It’s the dirty little secret many shampoo companies don’t want you to know.  When you wash your hair with certain traditional chemical shampoos, you may actually be removing your hair and scalp(頭皮)of their natural oils.  These shampoos generate a thick bubble to clean hair, they can also create dryness, curl, dullness, and color fade. We then spend a lot of time and money on products that are effectively repairing the damage caused by shampoo.

Chaz Dean got tired of clients leaving his salon raving about their color and the feeling of their hair---brassy(似黃銅的) and dull. He knew the main cause was likely their shampoo, so he started experimenting with various ingredients, including natural herbs and botanicals, that he knew had cleansing(弄干凈)and hydrating (保濕的) properties.

The result was a totally new approach to the way we cleanse our hair.  It’s called WEN® Cleansing Conditioner.  WEN® contains a super-hydrating natural herbs and botanicals mixture of glycerin, chamomile(甘菊), rosemary, calendula, and Cherry bark, which when combined, will both cleanse the hair as well as give shine and softness, even to damaged hair.

WEN® is a 5-in-1 formula(配方) that takes the place of your shampoo, And the most amazing thing about it is that it cleanses without bubble.  Instead, when mixed with water, it creates a smooth bubble for shiny, healthy-looking, manageable results.  The first time you try it certainly feels strange, but the results speak for themselves.

Before being marketed, WEN® went through extensive consumer tests, and the results were impressive.  More than 90 percent of the participants in the studies reported that their hair was more shiny, less frizzy, and had more bounce.

WEN® is recommended for all hair types, and once you start using it, it will become the only cleanser/conditioner you will want to include in your daily routine.

Right now, WEN® is offering an easy way for online shoppers to try the product.  Now you just pay less than $30 and have a 60 day money back guarantee if you are not completely satisfied. Click here to learn more about WEN® and try this revolutionary new approach yourself.

試題分析:本文介紹了某些廠家的傳統(tǒng)化學(xué)洗發(fā)水對(duì)消費(fèi)者的頭發(fā)有損傷,會(huì)產(chǎn)生頭發(fā)變干、變卷、變脆和褪色的問(wèn)題。WEN®產(chǎn)品是由自然草本植物成分組成,超級(jí)保濕,可以保護(hù)修復(fù)受損發(fā)質(zhì),而且在清潔時(shí)不會(huì)產(chǎn)生泡沫。產(chǎn)品在投放市場(chǎng)前的消費(fèi)測(cè)試顯示消費(fèi)者對(duì)此項(xiàng)產(chǎn)品反映良好,此產(chǎn)品也可在網(wǎng)上購(gòu)買,是一款日常必備的洗護(hù)用品。

1.細(xì)節(jié)題:閱讀第一段內(nèi)容可知某些公司推出的傳統(tǒng)的化學(xué)洗發(fā)水會(huì)損害頭發(fā),使頭發(fā)變干、變卷、變脆和褪色,消費(fèi)者不得不花大量金錢和時(shí)間修復(fù)被這些洗發(fā)水損害的頭發(fā)。故選D。

2.推理題:劃線部分句意是查茲·迪安厭煩了離開沙龍的顧客激憤討論他們頭發(fā)顏色和發(fā)質(zhì)感覺(jué)——發(fā)黃和發(fā)暗。由“發(fā)黃和發(fā)暗”可知顧客并不滿意,常理可知顧客如果不滿意會(huì)大聲抱怨。故選B。

3.細(xì)節(jié)題:根據(jù)第三段中“WEN® contains a super-hydrating natural herbs and botanicals .”WEN®含有超級(jí)保濕的草本植物成分,故A項(xiàng)正確;根據(jù)第四段中“And the most amazing thing about it is that it cleanses without bubble”最神奇的事情是它清潔是沒(méi)有泡泡,可知B項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤;根據(jù)第五段中“Before being marketed, WEN® went through extensive consumer tests”在投放市場(chǎng)之前,WEN®通過(guò)廣泛的消費(fèi)者測(cè)試,可知C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤;根據(jù)第五段中“Before being marketed, WEN® went through extensive consumer tests, and the results were impressive”在投放市場(chǎng)之前,WEN®通過(guò)廣泛的消費(fèi)者測(cè)試,結(jié)果是令人印象深刻的,可知市場(chǎng)反應(yīng)良好,并不是只在網(wǎng)上銷售成功,因此D項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。故選A。

4.推理題:閱讀文章可知WEN®產(chǎn)品洗發(fā)護(hù)發(fā)效果很好,是消費(fèi)者的最好選擇。故選C。

5.推理題:根據(jù)最后一段中“ Click here to learn more about WEN® and try this revolutionary new approach yourself.”點(diǎn)擊這里了解更多關(guān)于WEN®產(chǎn)品并自己親自嘗試這種革命性的新方法。由此可知這是在網(wǎng)頁(yè)上出現(xiàn)的。故選B。

As a senior, my future is always on my mind. To be exact, thoughts of the future have kept me up countless nights and made me worry enough to do poorly on more than one test. Because of this, words of wisdom are a source of comfort. Steve Jobs gave a speech to Stanford’s graduating class in 2005 and his words resound repeatedly in my mind whenever I think about my future.

It wasn’t always like that, though. It started when I became a junior, when college came into view. It’s the first big step to making your life your own. So when Jobs discussed his life as a student, some fears were eased. He, too, felt the need to attend college to make something of himself. He faced what many are extremely afraid of: uncertainty. His lack of understanding caused him to stop attending college and focus on what he felt was important. His story had a happy ending, of course, since he certainly turned out well.

This doesn’t mean that students shouldn’t attend college, but rather that they shouldn’t worry so much. You’ll get where you need to go, even if your path is a bit more winding(蜿蜒的)than you’d like.

Jobs talked about the hardships in his work. His love of his work helped him carry on and he got where he was meant to be, which restates the point: don’t panic.

One particular part of his speech stayed with me. Steve Jobs quoted(引用)the saying “Stay hungry, stay foolish” and it has become my motto. Staying foolish is realizing that you are still a fool, no matter how much you’ve learned or experienced. There is always more to explore. Staying hungry is wanting to find those things about which you are still uneducated.

Steve Jobs’s level of success is attainable, and I aim to prove that. With the will power to go into the world living every day like it’s my last and allowing the future to take care of itself, I will do great things. In the last moments of my life, I’ll be proud of what I have done and hope to have all the wisdom a person could wish for.

1.The author felt worried when _________.

A.he had to take tests at school

B.he thought about his future

2.It is suggested in Paragraphs 1 and 2 that _________.

C.the author is a college student

D.the author cares much about his future

3.What did the author gain from Jobs’s speech?

A.Courage to drop out of school.

B.Confidence in defeating Jobs.

C.Interest in computer industry.

D.Bravery to face uncertainties.

4.What did NOT Steve Jobs encourage students to do in his speech?

A.Have the desire to learn more.

B.Be content with what they know.

C.Stay calm in the face of hardships.

D.Be modest so as to learn more.

5.The passage is mainly about _________.

A.the wisdom drawn from a speech

B.the most impressive quote in life

C.a(chǎn) memorable meeting with Jobs

D.a(chǎn)n experience of a speech

I got my first driver's license(執(zhí)照)in 1953 by taking driver education in my first year at Central High School in Charlotte,North Carolina. Four years later when it was time to renew my license I was a married woman. Henry and I were living in Baltimore,Maryland. Two weeks before my 20th birthday,Henry drove me to the motor vehicle office on a hot July afternoon. When I got to the office and showed to the man behind the counter my North Carolina driver’ s license,ready to renew,the man told me that I was under age by Maryland law since I was not yet 21.“Mr.Henry Smith,your husband,will have to sign for you,”he said.

I argued,pointing to a very large belly(肚子)of mine,“I am married. I am having a baby. Why should I have to have someone sign for me to drive?”He answered coldly,“It’s the law,madam.”

Henry encouraged me to calm down,just go ahead and get the license and be done with it. “No,” I said. I refused to have him sign for me. So I left without a Maryland license.

I called the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Office and renewed my NC license by mail—using my name Susan Brown. And thus it was for the next twelve years. Since Henry was in the army I could drive under my home state license. By the time Henry left the army we were once again living in Maryland,and I had to take the Maryland driver’ s exam. Since then I just go in and renew every four years—sign the name Susan Brown,have my new picture taken,and walk out with a license to drive.

1.Susan got her first driver’ s license________.

A.before she got married to Henry

B.when she was twenty years old

C.a(chǎn)fter she finished high school

D.when she just moved to Maryland

2.Susan failed to renew her license the first time in Maryland because________.

A.she was forbidden to drive by Maryland law

B.she lacked driving experience in Maryland

C.she was to give birth to a baby soon

D.she insisted on signing for herself

3.We can infer from the text that in the U.S.________.

A.American males should serve in the army

B.different states may have different laws

C.people have to renew their licenses in their home states

D.women should adopt their husbands’ family names after marriage
