【題目】In the past, Chinese buyers liked foreign brands better, thinking that products made by American or European companies are of higher quality than Chinese ones. But now that’s no longer the case.
“Chinese people born before 1985 generally think that foreign brands are better than Chinese ones, billionaire William Li told Business Insider during a recent interview on CCTV 9. But for those who were born after 1985, it is a different picture.
“When I first went to the United Kingdom in 1997, I thought that the difference between China and Europe was quite big, Li said. “But for those born in the 1990s, when they visit Europe or the US, they do not think there is a big difference.”
The change in thinking among Chinese buyers is showing up in many markets in China where western companies controlled before. A study by Credit Suisse which came out in March found that more and more young Chinese buyers are showing a home brand bias.
More than 90% of young Chinese buyers would prefer to buy home brands, according to the study. At the same time, home companies producing food, drinks, or personal care products raised their share(份額) of the market by 33% over the last ten years to nearly 70%.
“Chinese buyers, especially the younger ones, don’t just believe that foreign brands are better. Right now, Chinese buyers think China is good and ‘Made in China’ is not bad at all, Charlie Chen, head of China buyer research at Credit Suisse, told South China Morning Post in March.
The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi. Apple is the only foreign brand in the top five, but it has lost large ground to the home brands in recent years. Its market share is believed to go down to 37% from a 2015 high of 54%.
【1】Which of the following is true according to the text?
A. More and more foreigners go to buy Chinese products.
B. Older Chinese people don’t like foreign products any more.
C. More and more Chinese buyers prefer Chinese products.
D. Huawei is the top one in the smartphone market.
【2】Which fact best explains home brand bias?
A. Apple had a market share of 54% in 2015.
B. More than 90% of young Chinese buyers prefer home brands.
C. Chinese people born before 1985 think that Chinese brands aren’t as good as foreign ones.
D. American or European brands are of higher quality
【3】Who did most of the research for this report?
A. Credit Suisse.
B. CCTV 9.
C. South China Morning Post.
D. Billionaire William Li
【4】What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Chinese products get more popular at home.
B. Young Chinese are crazy for foreign brands.
C. ‘Made in China’ is welcomed all over the world.
D. The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies

【題目】 While you eat, you use them to help cut up food. When you smile, you show them off to look your best. Sep. 21 will be the 28th National Teeth Care Day in China. It’s the perfect time for you to learn some tips on how to protect your teeth.
First of all, we need to pick a good toothbrush. Softness is the key. Brushes with hard bristles (刷毛) can hurt your teeth and gums (牙齦). Choose one with soft bristles and rounded ends. Also, it is easy for you to reach all your teeth with a brush with a small head, since they can push into the small spaces of your mouth.
Next you need to learn the correct way to brush our teeth. Doctors around the world recommend the Bass brushing technique (貝氏刷牙法).The method advises you to brush your teeth along the gum line at a 45-degree angle (角度) with very small back-and-forth vibrating motions (顫動). Bad things usually hang out where the gums and teeth meet. You can clean the area well and prevent tooth and gum disease with this method.
After a good brush, you need to go on to floss (用牙線清理) your teeth. Put dental floss into the space between two teeth and use a careful back-and-forth motion. It helps get food out of the spaces. But don’t move the floss too hard, or it may hurt your gums.

【題目】Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive(欺騙)? When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture.
For example, someone might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!”
This guy is a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $ 200 worth of tickets, and only one was a winner. He’s really a big loser!
He didn’t say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That’s called a half-truth. Half truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.
Some officers often use this trick. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she tries another term. One of the persons who don’t support her says, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. However, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.’’
Advertisers will sometimes use half—truths. It’s against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, “Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache. ”It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.
This kind of thing happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.
【1】We may infer that the author believes people should ________.
A. buy lottery tickets if possible
B. make use of half—truths
C. be careful about what they are told
D. not trust the Yucky Company
【2】How many examples does the writer give to show how the truth is used to deceive?
A. One B. Two C. Three D. Four
【3】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Using half truths is against the law.
B. Technically, half truths are in fact lies.
C. Yucky Pills is a very good medicine for toothache.
D. Governor Smith did a good job during her last term.
【4】Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?
A. He’s really a big loser!
B. Sometimes the truth can lie.
C. Advertisers will sometimes use half truths.
D. It’s against the law to make false statements.
