While many people agree that The Sound of Music（音乐之声）is one of the best films of all time, some are at a loss（困惑） to explain why. Well, I’ll tell you why it’s one of the best movies ever. The Sound of Music simply has everything one could want in a movie.

First of all, it has a real romance--one where you can watch the characters slowly fall in love.

Secondly, it has humor, clever and sarcastic（讽刺性的） humor. When Schraeder said, “ Bye, Maria, I’m sure you’ll make a fine nun（修女）.” You just want to slap（掴） her across the face after hearing that.

Thirdly, it’s got adventure. The Nazis are the worst “bad guys” in any movie, so it’s great to see Maria, the Captain and the kids outwit（智取） them.

Fourthly, it’s got great music. The songs of the film are popular all over the world.

Fifthly, it’s got great scenery. The plot（情节） and dialogue are also amazing. I find new things to admire each time I watch.

Finally, is there a greater scene in any movie than the nuns showing the stolen Nazi car parts? In short, the film doesn’t just succeed because it cheers people up with a beautiful love story or songs. It also succeeds because it’s a wonderfully-constructed, wonderfully-written, and wonderfully-acted movie.

1.What’s the purpose of the passage?

A. To tell people what makes a good movie.

B. To tell people how to enjoy the humor in The Sound of Music.

C. To explain why The Sound of Music is one of the best movies.

D. To advise people to watch The Sound of Music

2.We can learn from the passage that _______.

A. in the author’s opinion, The Sound of Music succeeds mainly because of its songs

B. the author can find something new to enjoy every time he watches the movie

C. Maria just wants to slap Schraeder after hearing what she says to her.

D. The Sound of Music is a movie about how Maria outwits the Nazis with the nuns

3.About the The Sound of Music, the author mentioned all of the following things EXCEPT___

The Origins of Famous Brands

Our lives are full of brand names and trademarked products that we use every day. Although many brand names are simple acronyms(首字母缩略词) or versions of their founders' names, some of the companies we trust every day actually have fascinating and surprising back stories.

Starbucks

It seems fitting that the most famous coffee brand in the world would take its name from one of the world's greatest works of literature. The inspiration for the name of the coffeehouse came from Herman Melville's Moby Dick. The founders' original idea was to name the company after the Captain Ahab's ship — Pequot, but they eventually decided that Pequot wasn't a great name for coffee, so they chose Ahab's first mate, Starbucks, as the name instead.

Nike

Originally founded as a distributor for Japanese running shoes, the company was originally named BRS, or Blue Ribbon Sports. In 1971, BRS introduced its own soccer shoe, a model called Nike, which is also the name for the Greek goddess of victory. In 1978, the company officially renamed itself as Nike, Inc.

The right name is essential to a company's success, and a great origin story is just as crucial as a great product. An attractive origin story is one more thing that keeps customers guessing, wondering, and buying its products.

Google

Google was originally called BackRub, for it searched for links in every corner of the Web. In 1997, when the founders of the company were searching for a new name showing a huge amount of data for their rapidly improving search technology, a friend suggested the word “googol”. When a friend tried to register the new domain name, he misspelled “googol” as “google”.

1.What is the name of the Captain Ahab's ship?

A.Moby Dick. B.Starbucks. C.Pequot. D.Herman Melville.

2.When did the Nike get its name eventually?

A.In 1971. B.In 1978. C.In 1997. D.In 1987.

3.Why did the founders of the Google change its name?

A.They disliked their name.

B.They wanted new customers.

C.The company's original name was too long.

D.The company's search technology was improving rapidly.

I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But where are we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the issue, let’s take a look at three types of “waits”.

The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubt the most annoying of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink(洗碗池) as an example. There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it’s full. During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.

A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires a bit of discipline. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup required a Forced Wait. Directions are very specific. “Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer three minutes, remove from heat, let stand five minutes.”I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly. After all, Forced Waiting requires patience.

Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.

Turning one’s life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn’t come to rely on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.

We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you’re standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you’ll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, don’t be desperate. You’re probably just as busy as the next guy.

1.While doing a Watched-Pot Wait, we tend to ___________.

A. keep ourselves busy

B. get absent-minded

C. grow anxious

D. stay focused

2.What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?\

A. The Forced Wait requires some self-control.

B. The Forced Wait makes people passive.

C. The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions.

D. The Watched-Pot Wait engages body and brain.

3.What can we learn about the Lucky-Break Wait?

A. It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait.

B. It doesn’t always bring the desired result.

C. It is more fruitful than the Forced Wait.

D. It doesn’t give people faith and hope.

4.What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting?

A. Take it seriously.

B. Don’t rely on others.

C. Do something else.

D. Don’t lose heart.

5.The author supports his view by _________.

A. exploring various causes of “waits”.

B. describing detailed processes of “waits”.

C. analyzing different categories of “waits”

D. revealing frustrating consequences of “waits”

There are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try．How? Packaging is the silent but persuading salesman．

There on the shelves, each bottle, can ,box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer, because he/she is buying not only a product but also his/her belief in life．Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality” of the product and on how well it sells, because “consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package．Many products are packages and many packages are products．”, as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers’ feelings for packaging, noticed．

Shapes are another attraction．Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart．That’s why the round yellow M signs of McDonald’s are inviting to both young and old．
