Exhibitions provide people with a chance to see what is available, and perhaps more importantly, what may be available. In order to make your visit more efficient, the 8 rules listed below may be of some help to you.1. Avoid attending the opening ceremonyUnless your company is sponsoring(主办)the exhibition, find out when the opening ceremony is and show up about 30 minutes after that. The opening ceremony is like a starting gun: as soon as its over, the gathered crowds will rush to the doors to get inside the exhibition halls.2. Dont be distracted by pretty modelsHot cars and pretty girls may go well together, but dont be distracted by them. Remember what you really want to see at an exhibition.3. Go earlyUnlike the western competitors. Chinese exhibitors dont give away a lot of freebies during exhibitions. So, if you want the freebies, go to the show on the first day, right after the opening ceremony.4. Dont go during lunch hourLunch is like a daily national holiday in China. Lunch hour, unfortunately, leaves exhibition booths manned by guys who are more interested in stuffing food into their mouths than explaining the product or promoting the company.5. Avoid any booth with a big screen TV, a video or a loudspeakerThere are cheap ways of attracting consumers to visit a booth, and it doesnt always make sure that the vendor(卖主)has a good product to show. Its purpose is to attract people with an electronic dog-and-pony show.6. Hand your name cards out to everyoneTake plenty of business cards in both Chinese and English with you when going to an exhibition. Hand them out to every exhibitor whose booth you visit. This method helps advertise the name of your company, so dont leave home without them!7.Follow the guards Guards are available to assist anyone in need of help and to keep order. So follow them and look for the best products to see at an exhibition.8. Set a time limitPrepare for what you want to see, how much time you want to spend and where you want to spend and where you want to spend your time.Remember these rules and you will have a fruitful experience at an exhibition.56. Which of the following is Not true according to the text?A. Lunch hour is good time for you to visit a booth.B. Youd better set a time limit. C. you can ask for help from the guards.D. Exhibitors usually hand out freebies on the first day of an exhibition.57. What is the clever way to advertise your company according to the text?A. To hold an exhibition.B. To hand your name cards out to every exhibitor you visit.C. To attend the opening ceremony.D. To visit all the booths at an exhibition.58. What does the underlined word “freebies(in Rule 3)mean?A. A kind of toy.B. A kind of food.C. something that is given to somebody without payment.D. something that is given to somebody about a company.59. What would be the best title for the text?A. Why Do You Attend an Exhibition? B. 8 Rules for Attending an Exhibition in ChinaC. 8 Rules for Holding an Exhibition in ChinaD. An Exhibition Means an AdvertisementBUntil late April, northern China had experienced eight severe sandstorms this year alone, worsening the air quality in half the region's cities.This year's sandstorms are considered more severe than before. Not only are they increasing in frequency and having more serious effects on air quality, but they are also occurring earlier in the season and affecting a wider area. The timing of the first sandstorm moved up by a week this year, and the sandstorm-affected area has extended beyond 3 million square kilometers.The reason for the frequent dust storms is worsening desertification(沙漠化)in China's northern areas, caused by a combination of warm, dry weather and the rapid spread of agriculture. The dust-affected area is likely to expand to the northeast in the near future as a large area of grassland in Inner Mongolia's northern plain turns rapidly to desert.Due to its lack of rainfall and overall surface dryness in the spring, Beijing experiences sandstorms every March and April. The most recent sandstorm hit the capital on April 17 and was the worst in five years. For about 40 days every year, the pollutants cannot be diffused, as the city's location makes it a natural container for accumulating sand and dust. Rapid urban development is affecting Beijing's air quality as well. To alleviate the dust from hundreds of new construction sites, authorities have issued rules asking builders to cover all working areas, pack down loose dirt, and wash vehicle tires when leaving the sites.60. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the feature of this year's sandstorms?A. Happening earlier than before. B. Affecting more areasC. Happening as frequently as before. D. Affecting air more seriously61. All of the following are the reasons for desertification in northern China EXCEPT _A. warm and dry weather B. the rapid increase of agriculture.C. the disappearance of grassland D. the frequent dust storms62.The underlined word “alleviatein the fourth paragraph means_.A. strengthen B. reduce C. improve D. refuse63. Beijing will experience sandstorms every March and April mainly because of _.A. the dry weather B. its location C. worse air D. rapid urban development.CWhat are you reading?
