When one of the presenters of the BBC program Crimewatch re
9、signed recently, rather than suffer the inevitable indignity of being unfinished and replaced by a younger version, he made the usual hurt noises about his masters overemphasis on youth. People in the media listened sympathetically before he slid from view to join the ranks of televisions has-beens.
10、The presenters argument, that the views dont care how old you are so long as you can “do the job,” unfortunately is not backed up by the evidence. When youre on TV, viewers are always thinking about whether youre losing your hair or your figure and, lately, whether youve had cosmetic work done. This
11、 is what theyre actually doing when you think theyre listening to the wise things you say. Viewers actually dont understand much of what the job involves, they just see you sitting there looking the part. Like the ability to pet ones head while rubbing ones stomach, TV presenting is just one of thos
12、e sills. Some of those who possess this skill can hit the big name, inevitably as they become more attached to the lifestyle this brings, however, the more likely they are to overstate the skill.In reality, if somebody is paying you a lot of money to do a job, its often on the tacit (心照不宣的) understa
13、nding that you may be fired suddenly-its part of the deal. Unlike football managers, TV presenters pretend not to understand this. If theyve had many years being paid silly sums to read a script from an autocue ( 自动题词机),its difficult for them to accept that theyve been the beneficiary of good fortun
14、e rather than anything else; even harder to face the fact that an editor could all too easily send them to the shopping channels.Something similar eventually awaits all the people who are currently making fortunes that would have been unimaginable to earlier generations of presenters. One day well d
15、ecide that their face no longer fits and theyll be dragged away complaining about the same ageist policy from which they no doubt previously profited. Show business is a brutal (残忍的) business. The one thing it reliably punishes is age, particularly among women. Thats why, at the age of fifty, female
16、 TV presenters become female radio presenters and why girl bands planning to re-form need to get it done before theyre forty, after which it will get too hard for everyone to suspend their collective disbelief.4What does the writer imply about the Crimewatch presenter he mentions in the first paragr
17、aph?AHe was unwise to resign when he did.BHe will soon be forgotten by the viewers.CHe may well have had a valid point to make.DHe was treated insensitively by his employers.5The underlined pronoun “this” in paragraph 2 refers to_.Aa public imageBa level of successCan overstatementDa common misunder
18、standing6Why does the writer mention football managers in paragraph 3?ATo support his view that presenters are overpaid.BTo stress how important luck is in certain occupations.CTo show how relatively secure TV presents are in their jobs.DTo illustrate a general rule that applies to certain types of
19、job.7According to the writer, TV personalities who may worry about ageism _.Ashould look for work in other forms of broadcastingBmay have benefited from it themselves at some pointCare less well respected than presenters of the pastDare being unfair to up-and-coming younger colleaguesCThis is going
20、to ruffle(激怒) a few feathers.PepsiCo purposely packs fewer chips into its flavoured chip bags, Hugh Johnston, the companys CFO, told the Associated Press.“There might be an ounce or two less in those bags, ” Johnston said. Actually, its half an ounce less. Regular Lays are sold in 10ounce bags; flav
21、oured Lays are sold in 9.5ounce bags; and both are sold for the same $4.29 price. That might not sound like a lot, but it will sound like a lot with a bit of simple maths.Americans buy some $1.6 billion worth of Lays potato chips every year. Much of that is sold in bulkor merely in bags bigger than
22、the standard ones mentioned above. But lets assume for a second that those 10ounce bags are the only ones Lays sells. That would mean the company sells more than 372 million bags of Lays in the US each yearor 3.72 billion ounces of chips, at about 43 cents per ounce. It would also mean that that hal
23、founce difference is worth about 21.5 cents per bag, and about $80 million in total per year.That number is likely a good deal lower, but its not entirely unreasonable. If Lays is charging an extra payment for the smaller flavoured chip bags, its likely doing the same for the bigger ones, too. That
24、tiny halfounce difference might only mean a potato chip or two to you, but its probably worth tens of millions of dollars to PepsiCo annually.PepsiCo confirmed that flavoured and unflavoured Lays chips are sold for the same price, but not in the same quantity. “This allows us to keep the same price
25、point across the brand, ” Jeff Dahncke said in an email. He also suggested that the chip difference has nothing to do with extra profit.“The reason why there is a slightly higher price per ounce for flavoured chips is the added seasonings(调味品),” he said. But that doesnt appear to be the case.Some of
26、 the markups are simply meant to make up for the added input costs of cheese, barbecue, sour cream and onion, and other flavourings. But some of them are also there(or not there) to increase the potato chip makers profits. PepsiCo has a soft spot for its specialty potato chips, because its specialty
27、 potato chips are more profitable than its regular ones, according to Johnston.Perhaps thats why Lays is getting ready to launch a mass of new specialty potato chip flavours. The launch is part of PepsiCos annual “Do Us a Flavour” contest, in which it lets customers participate in the flavour creati
28、on process.8What did PepsiCo do to arouse public dissatisfaction?AThey gave short weight to their flavoured chips.BThey raised the price of their flavoured chips.CThey changed the flavours of their potato chips.DThey put more seasonings into their potato chips.9How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed?AB
29、y analysing causes.BBy giving examples.CBy listing figures.DBy making comparisons.10What does the underlined phrase “has a soft spot for” in the last but one paragraph mean?AHas a say in.BHas a look at.CHas access to.DHas affection for.11Why do Lays flavoured chips charge more per ounce according to
30、 Jeff Dahncke?ATo make more profits.BTo upgrade their products.CTo balance additional costs.DTo satisfy more peoples taste.DThe potential of a simple gesture to capture the publics imagination in a time of crisis was illustrated when 99-year-old British army veteran Captain Tom Moore decided to rais
31、e some money for workers and patients health. Inspired by the excellent treatment he had received in hospital for skin cancer, he promised to complete 100 laps of his garden, using his walking frame for support, before his 100th birthday later that month. His aim was to raise a modest 1, 000. But ne
32、ws of Captain Toms efforts soon reached the ears of a nation through newspapers and TV features. He even teamed up with the singer Michael Ball to record a charity version of “Youll Never Walk Alone”. Several weeks later, Captain Tom completed his 100 laps ahead of schedule, having raised more than
33、17 million. “I never dreamt I would be involved in an occasion like this,” he announced. But the Captain Toms passion showed no sign of dying down. By the time he reached his 100th birthday on 30th April, he had raised nearly 33 million. He was honoured with a fly-past by Britains air force, and the
34、 public sent more than 1, 50, 000 birthday cards. His response? “To all those people who are finding it difficult at the moment the sun will shine on you again, and the clouds will go away.” he said. In honour of his achievement, Captain Tom was promoted to the rank of Honorary Colonel, and awarded
35、a knighthood(骑士) on the recommendation of the Prime Minister. The money he raised was used to provide comfort and care for National Health Service workers. “Ive never been someone who does nothing,” he laughs, adding that he enjoyed the challenge. He believes the secret for his successand his long l
36、ifeis simple: “Its all about having the right mindset. Youve got to be optimistic and to think that things will get better.”12What can we learn about Tom Moores intention?AHe originally only had a small goal.BHe never planned to cooperate with others.CHe was inspired by a miserable experience .DHe i
37、ntended to take advantage of his birthday party.13How did Tom Moore deal with the collected money?AIt was used to help senior citizens.BIt was decided by National Health Service.CIt was rewarded to those making contributions.DIt was used to help National Health Service workers.14Which of the followi

DMore kindness Jess coldness.第二节 (共5小题,每小题2.5分,共12.5分)Forging a 5G futureThe future in sci-fi movies seems so cl
39、ose, yet so far away. Delightfully, 5G technology makes that future look easily achievable. Schools, hospitals, transportation, factorieseven our homes will soon use this powerful wireless network. Last year, China started testing 5G mobile networks in its several cities. So what is 5G? Its the late
40、st generation of cellular (蜂窝状的) network technology. 16 5Gs benefits mainly come from speed and connectivity (连接). 17 People will be able to use the Internet at a much greater speed than before. Imagine being able to download an entire movie in just a few seconds! Thats how fast 5G will be. 18 For e
41、xample, one of the biggest problems with developing driverless cars is the delay between sending a signal and receiving it. Driverless cars must be able to react instantly to sudden changes in their environment, such as a dog running across the road. This will require these cars to send and receive
42、huge amounts of data within milliseconds (毫秒). 19 It will also allow doctors to perform operations remotely, using robots.
