• 3．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---Lorenzo Bertolla!It is 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 misleading，but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative. "Look at traditional advertising.Its effectiveness is decreasing." It is true，because everyone knows and ad is trying to persuade you to buy something.However，you don't know when a conversation you overhear is just a performance.
  
  （1）The two attractive young women were talking so that they could

  .
  A．be heard by people around

  .
  A．a very popular male singer
  B．an advertising agency

  A．Traditional advertising will soon disappear in the market.
  B．The MTV generation tends 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.

• 9．閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
  A Run to Remember Thirteen can be a challenging age．Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body．I also had to deal with my parents' bitter divorce，a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded suburb．
     When we moved，my beloved companion，a small brown pony（小馬），had to be sold．Feeling helpless and alone，I couldn't cat or sleep，and I cried all of the time．I missed my family，my home and my pony．Finally，my father，realizing how much I missed my pony，purchased an old red horse for me at a local market．
     My horse，Cowboy，was without a doubt the ugliest horse in the world．He was pigeon-toed and knock-kneed．But I didn't care about his faults．I loved him beyond all reasons．
     I joined a riding club and faced rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboy's looks．I never let on how I felt，but deep down inside，my heart was breaking．The other members rode beautiful registered horses．
     When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance，we were quickly out of the game．I finally realized that my only chance to compete would be in the timed-speed events．I chose barrel racing（繞桶賽），an event in which a horse and its rider attempt to complete a triangular pattern around three barrels in the fastest time．
     One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events．She always won the blue ribbons．Needless to say，she didn't feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show．She didn't need to．I came in next to last．
     The bitter memory of Becky's smirks（得意的笑）made me determined to beat her．For the whole next month，I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena（運動場地）．We practiced for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home．On the way home I would be so tired；those five miles seemed twice as long．
     All of our hard work didn't make me feel confident by the time the show came．I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the pattern of barrels，finishing the course with case．
  注意：
  1．續(xù)寫詞數應為150左右；
  2．請按如下格式在答題卡的相應位置作答。
  My turn finally came．————————
  No cheers filled the air when I finished my show．————————
