But he had a dog, and the dog was used to going to the rubbish pit to look for food, because Johnny never bought food for his dog. The dog, who loved its master (主人) even though it was not given food, saw the shoes in the pit and knew they were its masters. So the dog took one of the heavy shoes in its mouth and went slowly back with it, and left it at its masters bedside. Then the dog fetched the other shoe in the same way. When Johnny woke up, he saw the shoes by his bed and he was afraid. There, shoes can walk by themselves, they must be done away with. he thought.

But which one is the cleverest?” He called his three sons to him. “Here is some money,” he told them, “You must each take one coin to buy something that will fill this room. Anyone who can do this shall have my fortune.” “It is a big room,” said the eldest son. “One coin will not buy very much,” said the second son. But the youngest son said nothing. He stood and thought, and then he smiled, “Come, brothers,” he said, “let us go to the market.” The eldest son bought straw with his coin. But one coin bought only a bit of straw. Even when he had spread it as much as he could, the straw covered only a corner of the room. The second son bought sand with his coin. But one coin bought only a bit of sand. Even when he had spread it as much as he could, the sand covered only half of the floor.“What did you buy?” the eldest son angrily asked the youngest son. “You dont have any straw.” “Yes, what did you buy?” the second son asked angrily. “You dont have any sand.” “I bought this,” said the youngest son. “A candle！” cried his brothers. “What good is a candle?” “Watch”,said the youngest son. He lit the candle, and all at once the room was filled from wall to wall, from ceiling to floor. It was filled with light! “Although you are the youngest, you are indeed the cleverest of my sons,” the old merchant said. And that is how, the old merchant left his fortune to his youngest son, the one who could fill a room with light.54. Who would get fathers fortune? A. The oldest son.B. The richest son. C.

A. strawB. candle C. sandD. waterC As societies develop, their members start to see things not so much according to what they need, but according to what they want. When people have enough money, these wants become demands.Now, it s important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies (策略). There are various ways of doing this. One way at supermarkets ( 超市), for example, is to interview(采访) customers while theyre doing their shopping. They can be asked what they prefer to buy and then the results of the research can be studied. This provides information on which to base future marketing strategies. It s also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public, as if they were ordinary customers, to get an idea of how customers act.Another way to get information from customers is to give them something. For example, some fast food restaurants give away tickets in magazines or on the street that permit customers to get part of their meal for nothing. As well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money, it also allows the managers to get a feel for where to attract customers and which age-groups to attract.Another strategy used at some well-known parks such as Disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work, touring the park dressed as Mickey Mouse or something like that. This provides them with a perfect chance to examine the scene and watch the customers without being noticed.58. The text is designed for _ A. mangers B. salesmen C. researchers D. customers59. Which of the following can help managers get useful information? A. Visiting customers themselves. B. Giving customers free food on the street. C. Visiting parks as ordinary customers. D.

Dressing up and walking around.第二节The following people are all choosing a car. After the description of these people, there is information about five kinds of car AF.
