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-----a 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 is 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 deceptive (骗人的), but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative. "Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is decreasing." However, one might ask what exactly is "real" of young women pretending to be enthusiastic about a sweater? Advertising executives would say it's no less real than an ad. The difference is that you know an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something. You don' t know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.The two attractive young women were talking so that they could _____.
| A．get the sweater at a lower price |
| B．decide on buying the sweater |
| C．be admired by other shoppers |
| D．be heard by people around |
Lorenzo Bertolla is _____.
| A．a very popular male singer |
| B．an advertising agency |
| C．the brand name of a sweater |
| D．a clothing company in Rome |
Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
| A．Traditional advertising will soon disappear in the market. |
| B．The MTV generation tend to be more easily influenced by ads. |
| C．Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government. |
| D．Traditional advertising is becoming less effective because it's too direct. |
Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
| A．Two Attractive Shoppers |
| B．Lorenzo Bertolla Sweaters |
| C．Undercover Marketing |
| D．Ways of Advertising |

Dear John,
My name is Amber and I want to share my story with you because what you've shared about life and positive energy has changed my life. This past year has been one of the hardest for me. I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life. In January, after two years of being together, my boyfriend left me.
I read your blog every morning as I drink my coffee at work, but it wasn't until this March that I told myself "no more negativity" as you taught readers in your blog.
Since then I've got into new habits at work to keep my energy positive. When people walk in the front door, I'm the first face they see, so I smile big when I say "good morning" to them, especially on Mondays. Instead of waiting for someone to ask me for help, I offer it with an open mind. The CEO noticed my change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted.
One of the biggest things I've taken to heart from your blog is changing my opinions on my job. Yes, it was not an important position, but when I was passionate （热情的） about it, I could make my life fulfilling.
All in all, I have to thank you somehow for having the passion to help others because it truly is inspiring to me. So thank you so much, John. My life has changed because your words pointed me in the right direction, Take care!
Sincerely ,
AmberAmber wrote the letter mainly to______
| A．introduce herself to John | B．talk about her bad year |
| C．ask for some advice | D．express her thanks |
We can infer from the passage that Amber______
| A．didn't like her boyfriend |
| B．spent a lot of time online |
| C．wasn't satisfied with her job |
| D．received very good education |

| A．He is a very famous writer. |
| B．He used to live a very negative life. |
| C．He doesn't like sharing his life stories. |
| D．He likes helping others through writing positive blogs. |

| B．Bad luck doesn't exist long. |
