14、ss world. All you have to do is think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and youll agree that the name and the product are connected in everyones mind.In many countries, successful trade or brand names are protected by law. This is so that other companies cannot make a product t
15、hat looks like another. People might think that they are buying one product and, in fact, be buying something different. Businesses register a company or a product name with the government. In fact, more than 1,000 products and company names are registered every hour. Many companies spend a lot of m
16、oney finding the right name for their products. A good example of this is in the car industry. Some successful names for cars have powerful associations (联想).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
17、 sell its product in another country, it has to make sure that the products name translates properly. 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
18、its first brand nameCoke. It took some efforts before finding the right wordwhich sounds similar and translates as “happiness in the mouth”. Asian 3company 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
19、. Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers. There are even naming companies that specialize in inventing product names. These companies can charge up to $100,000 a word for their creations. But its worth it. Successful companies know how im
20、portant the right brand names are for their growth.26. Why are trade names protected by law in many countries?A. To make companies pay for naming service.B.

Personally I am very fond of strawberries, but I have found that strangely, fish prefer worms. So when I went fishing, I didnt
32、 put strawberries on the hook. Instead, I put a worm in front of the fish and said: “Wouldnt you like some?”5Why not use the same common sense when fishing for people?Why talk about what we want? Thats childish. Absurd. Of course youre interested in what you want. You always are. But no one else is.
33、 The rest of us are just like you: we are interested in what we want.So the only way on earth to influence people is _. Remember that tomorrow when you are trying to get somebody to do something. If, for example, you dont want your children to smoke, dont lecture at them. Dont talk about what you wa
34、nt; but show them that cigarettes may keep them from joining the basketball team or winning the hundred-metre race. Once I rented a ballroom of a New York hotel for a series of my lectures which would last for 20 nights. I was a regular customer of this hotel and had held quite a few lectures there.
35、 But just before that years lectures were about to begin, I was suddenly informed that I should have to pay almost three times as much rent as usual. I was shocked and didnt want to pay the increase, but whats the use of talking to the hotel about what I want? Two days later, I sent the hotel manage
36、r a letter. In the letter, I drew two columns (栏), one for “Advantages” and the other for “Disadvantages”. Under the “Advantages” column, I wrote: “You have your ballroom free to rent for dances and meetings. Thats big business. From things like that you will make more money than if I tie your ballr
37、oom up for 20 nights during this season.” Under the “Disadvantages” column, I wrote: “First, instead of getting more money from me, Im afraid you will earn nothing this time, because I cant afford the rent youre asking and Im planning to hold my lectures at some other place. Second, as you know, my
38、lectures attract groups of educated and cultured people to your hotel. For 20 nights! Thats good advertising for you, isnt it. Of course you can pay $5000 advertising in the newspaper, but youll never bring as many people to look around in your hotel as I can by my lectures. That is worth a lot to y
39、ou, right?”And guess what, in the end, my rent increased only 50 percent, rather than 300 percent.36. What does the underlined word “Absurd” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. silly B. careless C. clever D. selfish37. Which of the following can be put in the blank in Paragraph 4? A. to talk about what they want
40、, show them how to do it and make them want to do it. B. to find out what they want and help them get it.C. to talk about what you want and make them help you.D. to give them good reasons why you want to do something and get them on your side.38. Which of the following is NOT true according to the p
41、assage?A. Smoking does harm to ones physical (身体的) ability.B. The writer sometimes talked to the fish when he was fishing.C. Everyone is interested in his or her own benefits.D. In the writers opinion, getting people to visit the hotel is a better way of advertising than making advertisements in new
42、spaper.39. What is probably the writers job?A. an actor B. a professor C. a painter D. a fisherman40. What is the correct order for the following events?a. The writer wrote a letter to the hotels manager.b. The writer was told that he had to pay more for his rent that year.c. The writer was shocked.
43、d. The rent rose 50%.6e. The writer had several of his lectures in the hotel.A. b-d-a-e-c B. e-b-d-c-a C. b-d-a-c-e D. e-b-c-a-d(D)Some scientists say that animals in the oceans are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings.The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a nu
44、mber of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.Decibels (分贝) measured in water
45、 are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninetyfive would have the same effect.Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in the
46、oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales（鲸鱼）.A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals.The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose thei
47、r hearing. This seriously affected the whales ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected(被感染的).Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds are against a limit of one hundred and twenty de
48、cibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists dont think that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.41. According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures?A. The sound of cars. B. The sound of voices.C. Man-made noise pollution. D. The sound of steps.42.
