20、 less developed countries is 27 . Between 1920 and 1960 big cities in 28 increased two and a half times in size, but in other parts of the world the growth was eight times their size.The sheer size of growth is bad enough, but there are now also very 29 signs of trouble in the comparison of percenta

21、ge of people living in towns and percentages of people working in industry, during the 30 century cities grew as a result of the growth of industry.

22、 true in the newly industrialized world. The percentage of people living in cities is 33 the percentage working in industry.

25、 identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.More than forty thousand readers told us that they looked for in close friendships, what they expected of

26、 friends, what they were willing to give in _36_, and how satisfied they were with the quality of their friendships. The results give little comfort to social critics.Friendship appears to be a _37_ form of human bonding. Unlike marriage or the ties that bind parents and children, it is not defined

27、or regulated by law. Unlike other social roles that we are expected to _38_ as citizens, employees, members of professional societies and other _39_ it has its own principle, which is to _40_ feelings of warmth, trust, love, and affection between two people. The survey on friendship appeared in the

28、March _41_ of Psychology Today. The findings _42_ that issues of trust and betrayal （背叛） are central to friendship.

30、s section, you are going to read a passage with 10 statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in out of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the que

31、stions by marking the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Media Selection for AdvertisementsA) After determining the target audience for a product or service, advertising agencies must select the appropriate media for the advertisement. We discuss here the major types of media used in advertis

32、ing. We focus our attention on seven types of advertising: television, newspapers, radio, magazines, out-of-home, Internet, and direct mail. B) Television is an attractive medium for advertising because it delivers mass audiences to advertisers. When you consider that nearly three out of four Americ

33、ans have seen the game show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire You can understand the power of television to communicate with a large audience. When advertisers create a brand, for example, they want to impress consumers with the brand and its image. Television provides an ideal vehicle for this type of

34、communication. But television is an expensive medium, and not all advertisers can afford to use it.C) Televisions influence on advertising is fourfold. First, narrowcasting means that television channels are seen by an increasingly narrow segment of the audience. The Golf Channel, for instance, is w

35、atched by people who play golf. Home and Garden Television is seen by those interested in household improvement projects. Thus, audiences are smaller and more homogeneous (具有共同特点的) than they have been in the past. Second, there is an increase in the number of television channels available to viewers

36、, and thus, advertisers. This has also resulted in an increase in the sheer number of advertisements to which audiences are exposed. Third, digital recording devices allow audience members more control over which commercials they watch. Fourth, control over programming is being passed from the netwo

37、rks to local cable operators and satellite programmers.D) After television, the medium attracting the next largest annual ad revenue is newspapers. The New York Times, which reaches a national audience, accounts for $1 billion in ad revenue annually. It has increased its national circulation (发行量) b

38、y 40% and is now available for home delivery in 168 cities. Locally, newspapers are the largest advertising medium. E) Newspapers are a less expensive advertising medium than television and provide a way for advertisers to communicate a longer, more detailed message to their audience than they can t

39、hrough television. Given new production techniques, advertisements can be printed in newspapers in about 48 hours, meaning newspapers are also a quick way of getting the message out. Newspapers are often the most important form of news for a local community, and they develop a high degree of loyalty

40、 from local readers.F) Advertising on radio continues to grow. Radio is often used in conjunction with outdoor billboards (广告牌) and the Internet to reach even more customers than television. Advertisers are likely to use radio because it is a less expensive medium than television, which means advert

41、isers can afford to repeat their ads often. Internet companies are also turning to radio advertising. Radio provides a way for advertisers to communicate with audience members at all times of the day. Consumers listen to radio on their way to school or work, at work, on the way home, and in the even

42、ing hours. G) Two major changessatellite and Internet radiowill force radio advertisers to adapt their methods. Both of these radio forms allow listeners to tune in stations that are more distant than the local stations they could receive in the past. As a result, radio will increasingly attract tar

43、get audiences who live many miles apart. H) Newsweeklies, womens titles, and business magazines have all seen increases in advertising because they attract the high-end market. Magazines are popular with advertisers because of the narrow market that they deliver. A broadcast medium such as network t

44、elevision attracts all types of audience members, but magazine audiences are more homogeneous. If you read Sports Illustrated, for example, you have much in common with the magazines other readers. Advertisers see magazines as an efficient way of reaching target audience members.I) Advertiser using

45、the print media-magazines and newspapers will need to adapt to two main changes. First, the Internet will bring larger audiences to local newspapers. These audiences will be more diverse and geographically dispersed （分散）than in the past. Second, advertisers will have to understand how to use an incr

46、easing number of magazines for their target audiences. Although some magazines will maintain national audiences, a large number of magazines will entertain narrower audiences.J) Out-of-home advertising, also called place-based advertising, has become an increasingly effective way of reaching consume

47、rs, who are more active than ever before. Many consumers today do not sit at home and watch television. Using billboards, newsstands, and bus shelters for advertising is an effective way of reaching these on-the-go consumers. More consumers travel longer distances to and from work, which also makes out-of-home advertising effective. Technology has changed the nature of t
