The boys in Jonesboro and in Chicago will be confined in institutions for a relatively short timeDespite horror at what was done，children are not-cannot be-dealt with as adults，not if a people wants to consider itself civilizedThats why politicianscries for adult treatment ofyouthful criminals ultimately miss the pointBut the moral void(真空)that invites violence has many sourcesFamily instability contributesSo does economic stressThat void，however,can be filledThe work starts with parents,who have to ask themselves whether theyre doing enough to give their children a firm sense of right and wrongAre they really monitoring their activities and their developing processes of thought?Schools，too，have a role in building characterSo do youth organizationsSo do youth entorcement agencies，which can do more to inform the young about laws，their meaning，and their observance(遵守)The goal，ultimately,is to allow all children a normal passage from childhood to adulthood(成年)，so that tragic gaps in moral judgement are less likely to occur.The relative few who fill such gaps with acts of violence hint at many others who dont go that far,but who 1ack the moral foundations childhood should provideand which progressive human society relies on31 The two boys in Chicago wereA shotB murderedC accusedD sentenced32 The boys in Jonesboro and Chicago apparently lacked a sense ofA right and wrongB disciplineC shameD safety33 According to politicians，when children commit crimes，they should be treated in the same way asA murderersB criminalsC victimsD adults34 Which of the following does the writer cite as a source of moral void?A Official corruptionB Social injusticeC Family instabilityD Racial discrimination35 Which of the statements is NOT true according to this passage?A Parents should strengthen moral instructionB Schools should help create a moral sense in childrenC Law enforcement agencies should do more to help children understand laws.D Youth organizations play no role in building character第二篇 Characteristics of PublieityPublicity offers several benefitsThere are no costs for message time or space.An ad in prime-time television may cost$250，000 to$500，000 or more per minute，whereas a five-minute report on a network newscast would not cost anythingHowever,there are costs for news releases, a publicity department，and other itemsAs with advertising，publicity reaches a mass audience.Within a short time，new products or company policies are widely knownLine 5Credibility about messages is high，because they are reported in independent media.A newspaper review of a movie has more believability than an ad in the same paper,because the reader associates independence with objectivitySimilarly,people are more likely to pay attention to news reports than to adsFor example，The Womens Wear Daily has both fashion reports and advertisementsReaders spend time reading the stories，but they flip through(浏览)the adsFurhermore，there may be 10 commercials during a half-hour television program or hundreds of ads in a magazineFeature stories are much fewer in number and stand out clearlyPublicity also has some significant limitationsA firm has little control over messages，their timing，their placement，or their coverage by a given mediumIt may issue dctailed news releases and find only portions cited by the media；and media have the ability to be much more critical than a company would likeFor examplein 1 982，Procter%26amp;Gamble faced a substantial publicity problem over the meaning of its 123-year-old company logo(标志)A few ministers and other private citizens believed that the symbol was sacrilegious(亵渎的)These beliefs were covered extensively by the media and resulted in the firm receiving 1 5，000 phone calls about the rumor in June alone.To combat this negative publicity,the firm issued news releases featuring prominent clergy(神父) that refuted(消除)the rumors，threatened to sue(控告)those people spreading the stories，and had a spokesperson appear on Good Morning AmericaThe mediacooperated with the company and the false rumors were temporarily put to restHowever, in 1985，negative publicity became so disruptive that Procter%26amp;Gamble decided to remove the logo from its productsA firm may want publicity during certain periods，such as when a new product is introduced or new store openedbut the media may not cover the introduetion or openmg until after the time it would aid the firmSimilarly,the media determine the placement of a story；it may follow areport on crime or sports.Finally,the media determine whether to cover a story at all and the amount of coverage to be devoted to itA company-sponsored jobs program might go unreported or receive threesentence coverage in a local newspaper36 The wordmassin Line 5 could best be replaced byA groupedB crowdedC gatheredD large37 The second paragraph implies that people are more likely to believe storiesA in a newspaper than in a womens dailyB in a newspaper than in a magazineC in an independent newspaper than in a dependent newspaperD in a magazine than in a local newspaper38 According to the passage，which of the following statements is true?A A firm can control and time publicity accuratelyB A firm can neither control nor time publicity accuratelyC A firm can either control or time publicity accuratelyD In most cases a firm can control and time publicity accurately39 The example in Paragraph 4 is intended to demonstrateA the power of publicityB the victim of publicityC the terrible effects of rumorsD the vulnerability of people to publicity40 The passage implies thatA the placement of a story is not quite importantB the report of a crime may not be trueC local newspapers are not interested in company-sponsored programs.D publicity is not always necessary第三篇 Effects of Environmental PollutionIf poilution continues to increase at the present rate，formation of aerosols(浮质)in the atmosphere will cause the onset(开始)of an ice age in about fifty yearstimeThis conclusion,reached by Dr SIRasool and Dr SHSchneider of the United States Goddard Space Flight Centr
