He told his brother:uReceive this scholar and treat him well! Don't say a word to him, and everything will be OK.”The monk left the temple.

I showed him one finger and he replied by showing me two. Logically, I answered with three fingers and then he astonished me by raising a closed fist, ending the debate. With one finger, I implied the unity of Buddha. With two fingers, he expanded my point of view by reminding me that Buddha was inseparable from his theory. Delighted by the reply, with three fingers I expressed: Buddha and his theory in the world. Then he suggested a wonderful response, showing me his fist: Buddha, his theory and the world, all together as one whole. ”A little later, the monk went to look for his one-eyed brother."So how did it go earlier with the theologian?,he asked.“Very simple,“§aid the brother."He made fun of me ;he show me one finger emphasizing that I have but one eye. Not wanting to fall into the conflict, I showed that he was fortunate enough to have two eyes. Critically, he continued, bBe that as it may ,between us, we have three eyes.9 That was the straw that broke the camel's back.

There could now be a solution: a new high-tech fabric (织物)that expands as the wearer grows.Ryan Yasin, who is studying for a master's degree at the London Royal College of Art, came up with the idea after purchasing clothes for his newborn nephew, only to find the baby had outgrown them by the time they arrived. In addition to the expense Yasin was also concerned about the environmental influence. The process of making and distributing just I kilogram9 or 2. 2 poundsy of new fabric results in an average of 23 kg, or 50 pounds of greenhouse gases. To make matters worse, theufast fashionMtrend worldwide has caused garment production to double since 2000, with more than half of the clothing ending up in landfills annually!To find a solution, Yasin used his previous experience designing satellites to invent a way to fold synthetic (合成的) material such that it stretches in all directions.The first design, a pair of tiny pants> not only fit his baby nephew, but also his 2-year-old niece! After spending a lot of time perfecting the process and testing the design, Yasin is now awaiting a patent for his design and seeking investors (投资者)to bring the clothing to market.For his new line of Petit Pli, the designer plans to produce outerwear that is both waterproof (防水的)and windproof. The clothing will be machine washable and fold small enough to fit in a jacket or pant pocket. Yasin plans to establish a take-back system so that worn-out Petit Pli clothing can be recycled into new fabric.The designer does not expect parents to dress their children only in his expandable clothing, particularly since the current designs use synthetic materials. But he plans to soon produce the wear in "a wider variety of garments” and hopes that Petit Pli will be able to have an4Mnfluence on over-consumption. "We surely hope he succeeds!1> What inspired Yasin's invention?A. His great expense on clothes. B. His unhappy experience.C. His nephew's piled-up clothes. D. His desire for a master's degree.2、Which of the following statements about Yasin's design is true?A. It has been tested successful. B. It has come on the market.C. It has got a patent. D. It has attracted a lot of investors.3、What will be one advantage of the new outerwear?A. It comes in various styles.B. It needs no washing.C. It can never be worn out.D. It is spacesaving.4、Why does Yasin suggest a limited use of the expandable clothing?A. Its cost is too high. B. It lacks stylish designs.C. Its materials are not natural. D. It is not easily recycled.24. (8 分) When most people think of the word, “brand", they think of the Nike Swoosh, Ford "blue oval,” McDonalds Golden Arches, or the wState Farm is There” jingle. They know what theywill get with a wellbranded product or service as promised. Think of Volvo, for instance, and your first thoughts are probably something like “well built, comfortable, Swedish" and, most of all, “safety”.So a brand is a lot more than a logo, icon, or slogan. Catchy as it may sound, it isn't the "brand“ in the true sense-and it certainly isn't what makes the brand valuable.A company's brand is a promise. Ifs a description of the company's character. To some extent, ifs a mission; ifs how the company creates and delivers value. Also, it's the feeling the company conveys to its stakeholders. Successful brands meet various challenges and consistently deliver on their promises, which is how they create brand value.To illustrate it, here are some brand promises from three highly successful, world-wide brands:The NFL: "To be the premier sports and entertainment brand that brings people together, connecting them socially and emotionally like no other."Coca-Cola: "To inspire moments of optimism and uplift.VirginAtlantic: uTo be genuine, fun, contemporary, and different in everything we do at a reasonable price.”Interesting. In none of the above cases does the brand promise describe what these companies do or provide. The NFL's brand promise says nothing about football. Coca-Cola doesn't talk about providing the best soft drinks in the world. And Virgin Atlantic's promise goes a lot farther than seating passengers in its aircrafts.Of course, a promise is nowhere near enough. The promise along with look, personality, time, money, and hard work combined can eventually help to build and maintain great brands and acquire a special patina(光泽)of what I call “me” appeal, showing my personal appetite. Apple has that patina. All of this can lead to sub-brands, like iPhone and iPad which acquire the glory of the parent brand.Sometimes a brand is memorable because of little things. TD Bank has a special place in their branches for you to deposit all those coins you collect in jars. It is called the Penny Arcade that turns depositing your coins into a fun game in which you can even win prizes. Years ago, Dime Savings Bank in New York had a small dime(十分硬币)carrier It was given to kids and then they'd fill up its 50 slots (投币口)with a dime in each one and bring it to exchange for a $5 bill.1、What can we know from the first 2 paragraphs?A. People tend to believe in top brands because they deliverwhat is promised.B. Well branded Swedish products are of good quality but more costly than others.C. Well branded products are faced with great challenges of quality currently.D. A company shouldn't care about logos because they can't make the brand valuable.2、In the author's opinion, a brand promise is,A. thecontract between a company and the people who interact with itB. the only way to build and maintain a great brand's valueC. a description of what a company actually does for its consumersD. an important factor contributing to the success of a brand3、According to the passage, what isprobably "Virgin Atlantic”?A. A financial company.B. A high-tech softwa
