The passage is probably taken from_.A. a magazine B.a website C. a report D. a bookB BFor Christmas last year, Maries grandma wanted to get her something special. So Marie asked her grandma for her dream gift: a brand-new pair of UGG boots. All her friends had them.On Christmas morning, Marie really got a pair of boots. They fit perfectly. The quality was superb. There was only one thing missing the tiny label(标签) on - 3 -the heel that says UGG.Maries thanked her grandma. But shes only worn those boots twice-both times to visit her grandma. “I would never wear them in public“, she says. .Maries grandma would. be heartbroken to know the truth. But at UGG headquarters, a room full of sales managers would be cheering.Through clever marketing and expensive advertising, the makers of UGGs have convinced Marie-and millions of others-that the name UGG has value far beyond what the homely slipper boots should really cost. UGGs, like North Face jackets, Nike sneakers, and other brand-name items are “status (身份) symbols“. People pay double, tniple even 10times more for brand names than for similar items. Is a pair of $400 True Religion jeans really better than the $18 Wranglers you can get at Walmart ? Maybe the quality is a bit higher. Maybe they shrink less. But are brand names really worth the high prices? Some pricey brands do, in fact, use higher-quality materials that fit better and feel nice on your skin. .However, the truth is that the value of a brand has little to do with quality and a lot to do with status. A recent study by Consumer Reports found that some of the least expensive jeans are better made than the more expensive jeans. But that doesnt matter. Wearing a certain label tells the world.“I belong“ or “I can afford it “.A few decades ago, the idea of a kid refusing to wear a pair of boots because the label was wrong would have seemed as crazy as talking on a phone the size of your hand. 24.When Mane received the Christmas gift from her grandma, she seemed A. excited B. worried C. moved D. disappointed25.UGGs managers would be cheering because of A. its particular design B.its high-quality products C. its successful marketing D. its better customer service26.1n the authors opinion, people wear brand name products as away to - 4 -A. show themselves off B. follow the fashionC. keep pace with the times D. improve their quality of life27. What is the best title of this passage?A. UGG and the influence B. Brand-name products and the benefit .C. Brand-name products: Worthwhile or Not? D. Brand-name products: High Quality or Not?C CIn the 19th century, trains were the best way to travel long distances over land. Trains were fast and convenient.

The Bullet train offers a fast, smooth ride between Tokyo and other major cities in Japan. This train operates at speed up to 210 km/h and can travel between Tokyo and Osaka in just three hours.China has the worlds longest high-speed rail network with over 19,369.8 km of track (轨道) in service from December 2014. Chinas high-speed rail system also includes the worlds longest line, the 2298 km Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway. Chinas high-speed trains are marked with“CRH”(Chinas railway high-speed). They are also called Hexie Hao. The fastest train sets, CRH380BL, reached the highest test speed of 487.3km/h. Now Chinas high-speed trains called Fuxing Hao are even faster and better.28.
