B. Choose the best answer and complete the passage(选择最恰当的单词或短语选项完成短文)：

What makes an advertisement effective? You can easily answer this question if you walk around a city. A good ad is one that gets your attention and makes you focus on the important ______, too.

To learn how to create an effective ad, like a poster for example, start by ______ the two posters on the right. Answer this without stopping to think: Which one is more effective? Yes, it’s the one at the bottom. Let’s examine why.

First of all, it’s more colourful and it’s got attractive pictures. The white and black poster almost becomes invisible next to it. Colour draws attention. Moreover, it can ______ your feelings and make you react in a certain way. Images do the same. Do the cupcakes on the poster at the bottom make your mouth water? Do they make you quickly go through the text to find out where you can get them? That’s what they’re there for!

An ad isn’t just colour and pictures. You’ve got something to say, so the next thing you should do is to decide how much text you should write. Remember that people are impatient and will ______ read a long text to see what it’s about. The amount of text should be just right to get your message across, so focus on your message and say it with as few words as possible. Your choice of font (the style of letters), font size (how big or small the letters are) and font colour also play an important role. You want the text to be ______ to read, especially from a distance.

______, you have to decide how you’re going to organize both the pictures and the text in the space you’ve got. A good layout helps people ‘read’ the ad quickly and communicates your message more effectively. If your poster is too busy, your message will simply get lost!

1.A. task B. information C. goal D. proof

2.A. discovering B. memorizing C. comparing D. recognizing

3.A. express B. hide C. link D. affect

4.A. probably B. mainly C. rarely D. definitely

5.A. easy B. enjoyable C. basic D. serious

6.A. However B. Finally C. In conclusion D. As a result

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给）

A healthy mind

The brain is the most fascinating part of our body. Even though there has been all medical research, n1. really understands everything about it. Like the rest of our body, our brain needs to be cared for. The ways that we keep our mind healthy can be quite s2.. Getting a good night’s sleep, eating a balanced diet and taking deep breaths are all important methods of looking after both your body and your brain.

Many people think their brain will slow down with age and their memory will get worse as a result. The t3. is, just like your body, you can also improve your mind. I’ve found I can improve my memory by i4. what I need to remember. For example, if I’m going shopping and I need bread, milk and a birthday card for my brother, I form pictures of a loaf of bread, a carton of milk with a cow on the front and a birthday card with a football on it.

The same kind of method can be used with important dates. If you have a picture in your mind of a particular event, it’s much e5. to remember than just a number on a calendar.

Another way of improving your mind is to make sure you r6. visit new places and have new experiences. Traveling more often has much more long-term benefits than you would have ever expected. Personally I find learning English is a great way to keep the brain working, but communication with others in any language is important. Having a c7. is much better for your brain than staring at a computer screen or at other people talking on TV.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）

Dear Mrs. Smith,

I regret to inform you that your order for bed clothes and curtains will not arrive on schedule. The reason for this is the factory that supplies our fabrics(面料) flooded during the typhoon over the weekend. All of the material it had in stock(存货) was ruined, and its workers now have to clean up the factory. This includes repairing some of the looms it uses to make the fabrics.

As a result, it will take an additional two weeks for them to send us the fabrics. Since you custom-ordered these fabrics, the factory has agreed to deal with your order first. As soon as we receive it, my company will also give your order priority; after all, you are a valuable customer for us. We’ll try to get all the bed clothes and curtains done as soon as possible.

I’ll email you when we start sewing work, and again when the items are finished and we’ve done quality control on them. __92__, and I hope you will continue to use our services in the future.

Sincerely,

Joes Sewing Company
