The guidelines include Kennedy’s four basic consumer rights plus another four ： the right to satisfaction of basic needs，the right to redress(赔偿)，the right to education ，and the right to a healthy environment.Currently，the fundamental consumer rights are recognized globally. World Consumer Rights Day normally has a theme associated with an activity or development that is relevant to consumers. Whatever its objectives ， it shares the same underlying aim of bringing about important and needed benefits to consumers. In recent years ， progress has been made for recognition and protection of consumer rights in developing countries. At least, March 15 is a day when consumers are filled with pride and satisfaction. However ， there are many reports on violation of consumer rights by unethical( 不 道 德 的 ) marketing practices. 25．When was World Consumer Rights Day first celebrated? A. On March 15，1962. B.

It was John F．Kennedy who declared that March 15 was the World Consumer Rights Day.C You try to keep your eyes wide open while watching a basketball match or a marvelous firework show in case you might miss something exciting in just the blink of an eye. But in fact, humans blink about 15 times per minute on average. Have you ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not. Why is that? According to a new study published in journal Current Biology in September, our brain has the ability to “skip” the temporary darkness that we see when we blink. It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form a conclusive image without interruption. In order to understand how this works, a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Medical Center Gottingen in Germany conducted an experiment. In the study, the participants were asked to look at patterns on a screen whose orientation(方向)could be shown in different ways, such as horizontally( 水平的) or vertically( 垂直的).When one pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come, the participants had to indicate the direction that the next pattern would be oriented in. The researchers found that when the orientations of two patterns didn’t match, the medial prefrontal cortex(内侧前额叶皮层)--- the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory---was activated. This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction. “The medial prefrontal cortex adjust current visual information with previously obtained information, and thus enables us to see the world with more stability, even when we briefly close our eyes to blink,” Caspar Schwiedrzik explained in Science Daily. He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate Center. 29.What ’s the author’s intention to write the first paragraph? A. To bring out the topic. B. To show the importance of blink. C. To show some interesting event in his life. D. To give suggestions on when we should blink. 30. Why can’t we miss anything when blinking? A. Because the time of the blink of an eye is too short. B . Because our brain has the ability to “skip” the darkness. C. Because our eyes can keep information and put it together. D. Because the medial prefrontal cortex has a special function. 31. The underlined word “activated” probably means . A. be injured B. be useless C. start working D. start being noticedD After spending a year in Brazil on a student exchange program, her mother recalled, Marie Colvin returned home to find that her classmates had narrowed down their college choices. “Everyone else was already admitted to college,” her mother, Rosemarie Colvin, said from the family home. “So she took our car and drove up to Yale and said , ‘You have to let me in .’ ” “Impressed--she was a National Merit ( 英才) finalist who had picked up Portuguese in Brazil--Yale did, admitting her to the class of 1978, where she started writing for the Yale Daily News and decided to be a journalist,” her mother said. On Wednesday, Marie Colvin, 56, an experienced journalist for The Sunday Times of London, was killed as Syrian forces shelled( 炮击) the city of Homs. She was working in a temporary media center that was destroyed in the attack. “She was supposed to leave Syria on Wednesday”, Mrs. Colvin said. “Her editor told me he called her yesterday and said it was getting too dangerous and they wanted to take her out. She said she was doing a story and she wanted to finish it.” Mrs. Colvin said it was pointless to try to prevent her daughter from going to conflict zones. “If you knew my daughter,” she said, “it would have been such a waste of words. She was determined, she was enthusiastic about what she did, it was her life. There was no saying ‘Don’t do this.’ This is who she was , absolutely who she was and what she believed in :cover the story, not just have pictures of it, but bring it to life in the deepest way you could.” “So it was not a surprise when she took an interest in journalism,” her mother said. 32.From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1, we can infer that . A. Yale was her last choice B. Marie Colvin was confident of herself C. Yale must keep its promise to Marie Colvin D. Marie Colvin was good at persuading 33.Which of the following is the correct order to describe Marie Colvin’s life ? a. She was doing a story in Syria and got killed. b. She was admitted to Yale University. c. She studied in Brazil as an excellent student. d. She was hired by The Sunday Times of London. e. She began to take an interest in journalism. A. d→e→c→a→b B. b→c→d→e→a C. e→d→c→b→a D. c→b→e→d→a 34. From the last paragraph, we can know that Mrs. Colvin . A. dislikes the choice of her daughter.B. cares little about her daughter.

Include the name of another technician on the film if your analysis will be focusing on that aspect. Write your film analysis with the movie at hand if this possible. Provide a brief overview of the story, but avoid the temptation to pad your word count by writing what amounts to a synopsis(outline) of the story rather than analysis. 39 .
