Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasnt moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier. There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, hes an old guy! For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, “Hows it going? ”But he did something differenthe actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversation. I thought it was odd. I had grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit. After a while, you dont give any thought to the question and just mumble something back. I could say, “I just found out I have six months to live, ”and someone would reply, “Have a great day! ”But that wasnt the end. He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. He looked at the customers in the eyes. “I sure want to thank you for shopping here today, ”he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye. ”The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins. All had been touched by his simple gestureand in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.

C(2013·永州模拟)The US government has started a website, Admongo, to help children think critically about the advertising aimed at them. It claims to provide visitors with an“ad-ucation”through games and other entertainment. A cartoon man dressed in old time pilot clothing greets visitors to Admongo. “Call me Haiz”, he says upon arrival in a rocket ship that opens up with a crazy world inside it. Spacey dance music plays in the background as Haiz tells visitors that they need to learn about advertising. Its inventors say eight to twelve years old is the age kids develop their critical thinking abilities. Kids that age are also a big market for advertisers. The idea behind Admongo is to teach children three things: to identify the advertiser; to know what the advertiser is really saying, and to know what the advertisement is trying to get the child to do. Children learn these things through a video game. They create their own game character. They can choose different skin colors, hair styles, eye and mouth shapes. Then they begin a trip through ad-land, where there are ads on buses and billboards. The players have to find all the marketing in the neighborhood before they can move on to the next level. The Admongo game takes players inside a home, to the advertising studio and everywhere else ads can be found. It is a complete exploration of the world of marketing. One such area is food marketing. The Federal Trade Commission(FTC)says it is a big business. The FTC estimates that food, drink and fast-food restaurants spent more than one and a half billion dollars on advertising to young people in 2009. The FTC says children are important for three reasons: they buy products, they influence parents and caregivers to buy, and they are the future adult buyers of the products. A recent study says most advertising aimed at children is for foods of the lowest nutritional value. First Lady Michelle Obama has said she would like to see advertisers marketing healthy foods for children. 46. What is the best title of the text? A. A Website Aimed at Childrens FoodB.

Play video games during the trip. B. Travel to a supermarket. C. Eat in a fast-food restaurant. D. Choose appearance for their character. 49. Children are important for advertising because they are.
