One day a mime(哑剧演员)is visiting the zoo and attempts to earn some money as a street performer. As soon as he starts to draw a crowd, a zookeeper drags him into his office. The zookeeper explains that the zoo's most popular attraction, a gorilla(大猩猩), has died suddenly and the keeper fears that attendance at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla. The mime accepts.
The next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before the crowd comes. He soon discovers he can sleep all he wants, play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime—the job he likes but loses.
However, with days going by, he begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his. Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition(隔墙),and dangles(悬挂)from the top to the lion’s cage. The lion gets angry at this. The scene is a fuel to the crowd.
At the end of the day he is given a raise for being such a good attraction—Well, this continues for some time. The crowds grow larger, and the mime’s pay keeps going up.
Then one day when he is dangling over the lion he slips and falls. The mime is terrified. He starts screaming, “Help me!”, but the lion is quick. The mime soon finds himself flat on his back looking up at the angry lion and the lion says, “Shut up you fool! Do you want to get us both fired?”

Micro-blog is no longer simply a platform for self-expression and networking, as it is becoming a battlefield for businesses wanting to promote their products and services.
Over the last year, micro-blogging has become wildly popular in China, with some 65 million China based micro-blog accounts registered by the end of 2010 and the number is growing by more than 10 million each month, according to Data Center of the China Internet (DCCI).
At present, China’s largest web portal Sina claims (宣称) to have 5,000 company micro-blog users, including Starbucks, Channel, and IKEA. On the micro-blog pages of the companies, visitors can not only view advertisements, but also see customers’ feedback (反馈).
E-commerce (电子商务) expert Lu Bowang says micro-blogging has opened a whole new world of marketing. Through micro-blogs, companies can quickly catch the attention of future customers and interact with them on a regular basis so to develop a friendly relationship with customers, Lu said.
An Internet surfer named Xiaoben posted on his micro-blog page that he enjoyed drinking Puer tea, and within 10 minutes, a micro-blogger who owned an online shop selling Puer tea recommended (推荐) his shop to Xiaoben. “It is a little bit like magic. I just make a wish, and then I get a micro-blog response.”
However, with more and more people micro-blogging to make money, experts warn that marketing via micro-blog could be a double-edged sword.
Huang Heshui, professor from Xiamen University says micro-blogging is highly personal and private, and that too many advertisements can anger micro-blog users leading them to dislike certain brands.
Further, a brand can be as easily damaged as established through micro-blogging, as customers’ negative feedback about a certain product or company can be very quickly spread in the micro-blog community, Huang added.
The micro-blog managers should set up some rules and regulation to control micro-blog marketing, and at the same time, business organizations need to strengthen self-discipline and try to build up an honesty-based business culture, e-commerce expert Lu Bowang suggested.
25. By the end of August, 2011, the number of registered accounts based in China had probably increased to __________.
A. 65,000,000 B. 165,000,000 C. 155,000,000 D. 145, 000,000
26. What is the purpose of telling Xiaoben's experience ?
A. To show how fast he got the idea.
B. To promote micro-blog based marketing.
C. To show the win-win situation in micro-blog marketing.
D. To persuade people to make a wish through micro-blog.
27. From what Professor Huang says, we can learn that_______.
A. Advertising information will lead to micro-bloggers' great anger
B. A brand can be easily damaged because it's founded through micro-blogging
C. Costomers' reaction is important to company's survival in the micro-blog community
D. an honesty-based business culture should be built up in the micro-blog community
28. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Micro-Blog: A Double-Edged Sword
B. Business Online
C. An Awful Battlefield
D. Micro-Blog Makes its Way to Business
C

Tips for Cooking on a Tight Schedule
From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money and time, 36 Money is a topic I’ll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:
Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think about of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready? 37
Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? 38 It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.
39 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.
Hopefully that gives you a good start. 40 and don’t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!
A. Try new things.
B. Ability is easily improved.
C. Make three or four instead.
D. Understand your food better.
E. Cooking is a burden for many people.
F. Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.
G. A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.
