I took my mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy．“Jimmy,” I said, “I have a bit of problem here and I was 45 if you could keep my mother 46 while I’m busy．”
My mom and Jimmy sat at a table．Jimmy 47 my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had 48 the day before．Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep 49 ．
Now 10 years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment．Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy．I had the students complete an outline of the day’s 50 and an evaluation of our trip．Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if 51 was completed．When I came 52 Jimmy’s page, he had written “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs, Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too．”
I told him I really enjoyed what he had written．He looked rather embarrassed and 53 his own thanks and walked away．Suddenly he ran back and gave me a big hug．“Thanks again．No one even knew my mother didn’t 54 it．”

You’re in a department store and you see a couple of attractive young women looking at a sweater．You listen to their conversation:
“I can’t believe it — Lorenzo Bertolla! They are almost impossible to find．Isn’t it beautiful? And it’s a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome．”
They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater．It’s nice and the price is right．You’ve never heard of Lorenzo Bertolla, but those girls looked really stylish．They must know．So, you buy it．You never realize that those young women are employees of an advertising agency．They are actually paid to go from store to store, talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla clothes．
Every day we notice what people are wearing, driving and eating．If the person looks cool, the product seems cool, too．This is the secret of undercover marketing．Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it．
Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that don’t pay attention to traditional advertising．This is particularly true of the MTV generation — consumers between the age of 18 and 34．It’s a golden group．They have a lot of money to spend, but they don’t trust ads．
So advertising agencies hire young actors to “perform” in bars and other places where young adults go．Some people might call this practice misleading, but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative．“Look at traditional advertising．Its effectiveness is decreasing．” It is true, because everyone knows an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something．However, you don’t know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance．
59．The two attractive young women were talking so as to ______．
A．get the sweater at a lower price B．be heard by people around
C．be admired by other shoppers D．decide on buying the sweater
60．Lorenzo Bertolla is ______．
A．a very popular male singer B．an advertising agency
C．a clothing company in Rome D．the brand name of clothes
61．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Traditional advertising will soon disappear in the market．
B．The MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by all kinds of ads．
C．That traditional advertising is too direct may lead to its decreasing effectiveness．
D．Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government．
62．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A．Two Attractive Shoppers B．Lorenzo Bertolla Sweaters
C．Ways of Advertising D．Undercover Marketing

C
A single night of taking the drug Ecstasy （摇头丸） can cause serious brain damage and speed up the start of Parkinson’s disease, scientists say．Just two or three Ecstasy tablets can permanently destroy brain cells that affect movement and reasoning, according to American research that links the drug to Parkinson’s for the first time．
A study by a team at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, involving squirrel monkeys and baboons （狒狒） found that both species suffered permanent damage to key cells, which are lost in Parkinson’s, after receiving three low doses（剂量）of Ecstasy at three-hour periods．
The study is particularly important because baboons are one of the best animal models for the human brain．George Ricaurte, who led the research, said that the widespread abuse of drug might have caused severe damage．“The most troubling result is that young adults using Ecstasy may be increasing their risk of developing Parkinsonism as they get older．”
Alan Leshner, a former director of the US National Institute on Drug Abuse, said, “This study emphasizes the multi-aspect damage that Ecstasy causes to users．We’ve long known that repeated use damages brain cells．But this study shows that even very occasional use can have long-lasting effects on many different brain systems．It sends an important message to young people: don’t experiment with your own brain．”
Janet Betts, a mother whose teenage daughter Leah died after a single Ecstasy tablet in 1995, said, “This comes as no surprise．But people can’t see the effects at first, and they say it won’t happen to them．We’ll see the symptoms later, just as we have with smoking．”
63．The article is intended to ______．
A．explain the bad effects of drugs on people’s health
B．warn young people of the risk of taking the drug Ecstasy
C．persuade people out of such bad habits as smoking and using d
