You’d expect the home of the Bakewell pudding to know a thing or two about keeping its visitors cosy and well-fed,and in this attractive market town,you’re never more than a few steps away from a tea room or pub. And to walk off all the cake and ale, the spectacular Peak District is on the doorstep.
Eat/drink The Manners is a traditional stone-built pub a few minutes’ walk from the town centre, serving well-executed pub fare such as local venison with root veg and red wine sauce, and apple and plum crumble. Wyes Waters (Unit 8, Granby Road)is a charming little cafe with gingham table cloths and a great-value menu of homemade pies, sandwiches and cakes.
Shopping Bakewell’s thriving Monday market is always popular and its attractive cobbled courtyards and market square are home to independent shops and galleries. And of course, no visit to Bakewell is complete without a visit to the Old Original Bakewell Pudding Shop which will gift-wrap and post sweet treats to anywhere in the world. Out of town, the excellent Chatsworth Estate farm shop is the place to stock up on Derbyshire specialities such as oatcakes, handmade chocolates from family-run business Holdsworth, and bottled ales brewed on the estate.
Stay On the river in the centre of Bakewell, One Castle Street (doubles from £90 B&B), is a quaint B&B in a Grade II listed building, where substantial breakfasts will set you up for a day exploring. Alternatively, three miles out of town, Haddon Grove Farm has 11 attractive holiday cottages in converted farm buildings (from £490 for a four night December break in a cottage for four). There’s a communal games room and indoor heated pool, making it a perfect winter escape for families. Cottages sleep between two and 10.

Interactive television advertising,which allows viewers to use their remote controls to click on advertisements, has been pushed for years. Nearly a decade ago it was predicted that viewers of "Friends", a popular situation comedy, would soon be able to purchase a sweater like Jennifer Aniston's with a few taps on their remote control. "it's been the year of interactive television advertising for the last ten or twelve years," says Collin Dixon of a digital-media consultancy.
So the news that Cablevision, an American cable company, was rolling out
interactive advertisements to all its customers on October 6th was greeted with some skepticism. During commercials, an overlay will appear at the bottom of the screen, prompting viewers to press a button to request a free sample or order a catalogue. Cablevision hopes to allow customers to buy things with their remote controls early next year.
Television advertising could do with a boost. Spending fell by 10% in the first half of the year. The popularization of digital video recorders has caused advertisers to worry that their commercials will be skipped. Some are turning to the Internet, which is cheaper and offers concrete measurements like click-through rates-especially important at a time when marketing budgets are tight. With the launch of interactive advertising, "many of the dollars that went to the Internet will come back to the TV," says David Kline of Cablevision. Or so the industry hopes.
In theory, interactive advertising can engage viewers in a way that 30-second spot or not. Unilever recently ran an interactive campaign for its Axe deodorant(除臭剂), which kept viewers engaged for more than three minutes on average.
The amount spent on interactive advertising on television is still small. Magna, an advertising agency, reckons it will be worth about $138 million this year. That falls far short of the billions of dollars people once expected it to generate. But DirecTV, Comcast and Time Warner Cable have all invested in it.
Yet there are doubts whether people watching television, a "lean back" medium, crave interaction. Click-through rates have been high so far (around3-4%, compared with less than 0.3% online), but that may be a result of the novelty. Interactive ads and viewers might not go well together.
58.By saying "It's been the year of interactive television advertising for the last ten or twelve years"Colin Dixon means .
A.Interactive television advertising has not achieved the anticipated results.
B.Interactive television advertising is successful when incorporated into situation comedies.
C.Interactive television advertising has been under debate for the last decade or so.
D.Interactive television advertising will become popular in 10-12 years.
59.When Cablevision’s planned interactive TV advertising program,the public .
A.accepted it immediately and completely
B.had some doubt about it
C.showed an indifferent attitude toward it
D.refused to accept it
60.The wide use of digital video recorders .
A.has made TV advertising easily accessible to viewers
B.helps advertisers to measure the click-through rates
C.has placed TV advertising at a great disadvantage.
D.enables viewers to check the sales items with ease
61.What can we infer from para.4?
A.Unilever’s interactive campaign proves the advantage of TV davertising
B.Unilever’s interactive campaign has done well in engaging the vlewers
C. Unilever’s interactive campaign helps attract investments in the company
D.Unilever’s interactive campaign has boosted the TV advertising industry

Few people would disagree that email makes our lives easier. But misusing email can cause problems. And I’m not talking about hitting the “reply all” button when you didn’t mean to.
Answering all those emails and processing all that information can overload the brain,causing stress.
So says the Future Work Centre, a business based in London.This company carries out psychological research on people’s experiences in their workplaces.
The centre’s Richard MacKinnon was the lead writer of a report on messaging habits. He calls email a double-edged sword. In other works,email can be both good and bad. Americans also use the saying cuts both ways for something like a double-edged sword.
But back to the culture of emailing,Emails provide a useful way to communicate. But they could add to tension in the mind,causing stress. Come rain or shine, some office workers are under pressure to read and answer emails all day long.
Jonathan Rowe has on office job in London. His complaint is a common one:too many emails.
He says reading work emails when you’re at home blurs the boundaries between work and leisure.
Psychologists are concemed about the pressure that workers bring on themselves. Dr. Richard MacKinnon spoke with VOA News on Skype.
He says that email can be a valuable, time-saving communication tool. But it can also be a source of stress and even anger for many of us. He adds that the stress does not come from the number of emails you get. The problems result from when and how you deal with them.
According to the study,there are two very stressful email behaviors. One is leaving email on all day-and never signing off. The other is reading and answering emails early in the day and late at night.
Which jobs are most affected by email stress?
But not all jobs are equally stressed by email. The jobs most affected by email stress are:
• marketing,
• public relations,
• media and
• Information Technology
Educational experts have also written several reports on how email overloads are stressing out teachers.
Ways to cut down on your email stress
MacKinnon says bad email behaviors are linked to higher levels of stress in office workers. The Future Work Centre report gives several suggestions on avoiding email stress.
•Use email with a plan. Do not just react to endless email alerts. If you use an email application, or app ,on your device, close it down when you want to be left alone.
•If you need to communicate with a co-worker,call or better still walk to their office and talk about it.
•Be careful with the “reply all” option. For example, if you are accepting an invitation to attend training, just write back to those who need to know. Trust me. Other workers on that mailing list will thank you.
•And accept the fact that if a matter is urgent employers will call you about it.
The Future Work Centre report claims that in 2014, people sent an estimated 196.3 billion emails. The average adult spent more than an hour a day answering emails.
Email is certainly not going anywhere. So, it is important to control your emails and not the other way around.
62.Dr.Richard MacKinnon holds the idea that______________.
A.it is the emails you get daily that puts you under pressure.
B.it is the way of processing emails that makes you feel stressed.
C.it is necessary that you read and answer your emails at noon.
D.it is important that you realize where a source of stress comes from.
63.Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase “Come rain or shine” (in pare.5)?
A.whether it is good or bad B.whatever happens
C.whatever the stress D.whether the email is important or not
64. We can tell from the last paragraph that_____________.
A.We can only relieved when email is outdated.
B.We will never relieve our stress as email exists.
C.We should do everything we can to control email
D.We should be wise when dealing with our emails
65. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.Is Email Stressing You Out? B.Are You A Slave To Email?
C.Email Or Not? D.Have You Misused Your Email?

Half a year ago I came across a book called”Salt,Sugar and Fat. How the Food Giants Hooked US”,but finished it only recently. I am far from being a fan of junk food,over-salty,or over-sweet stuff,and honestly this food doesn’t appeal to me at all. Maybe it is related to the fact that I grew up in Russia and at that time we were not so exposed to the foreign, especially made in America foods. We knew Coca Cola,Pepsi,juice powder and Cheetos,but this stuff was not so cheap or available to buy it every day and we couldn’t buy them in large quantities. We didn’t know the word”fat”was not a bad thing but a normal of life for some people. We always had sweets and especially on holidays they were served as a dessert along with a cake. Russians like eating sweets when they drink tea. Even with my passion to desserts I still can’trelate myself to the people Michale Moss was writing about, those consumers who could not say”no” when it came to junk food.
What I found interesting in the book was that the author didn’t focus on diets, necessity to exercise,sleep well at night and all other things we all are pretty aware of. The aim was not to teach people how to live but instead,after having made a huge research,interviewed more than 100 people in the food industry,Moss reveals the ugly of the food business. It puts all the facts in front of us and offers a choice:to buy or not to buy. However,the answer was known at the very beginning. Moss mentions the well-known food like Coca,Cola,Pepsi,Nestle and some others and tells how skillfully the consumers can be cheated when it comes to choosing what to put in the food basket in the supermarket. We like this taste of a chocolate,the crispy chips,and sweet porridges because it was all put on test by groups of scientists who made experiments to reveal what kind of taste will be most appealing to us. It involves brain,of course. Apart from scientific researches, it was also due to successful marketing strategies and plans that people prefer to buy food.
In this companies’money race,the most vulnerable(易受伤害的)victims are kids. They can’t tell good from bad and love everything that makes them feel good. Commercial ads of fast food particularly targeted kids and played on the fact that mothers can’t fully control what their children eat because they spent all day at work. Mothers themselves buy chocolates bars and com flakes for their kids,guided by a powerful brainwashing that actually,these products were not unhealthy, on the contrary, it was encouraged to give them to kids, because fat and sugar provide energy, so they are good,right?
Giving a credit to some food companies, they made attempts to fight the trend, but consumers,who already worked a habit of eating too salty, too fatting and too sweet products,didn’t react to the changes. So the companies returned to the old policy. Surprisingly,such behavior was strongly backed up by the govermment.
I would definitely recommend reading this book not only to those who struggle in the battle with his addiction to fast food but also people living healthily. It casts light on many things,including how vulnerable we can be in front of corporations and their powerful and accurate marketing strategies.
66. In the book “Salt, Sugar and Fat. How the Food Giants Hooked US”,Moss focused on_____.
A.how to keep fit. B.how junk foods are made
C.How to buy healthy food D.how food companies cheated us
67. What does the world”It” in paragraph two refer to?
A.The book B.The research C.The food industry D.The author
68.What is the author’s attitude towards the government?
A.objective B.supportive C.positive D.negative
69.As to the book,the author might agree that____________.
A.it is necessary for those who want to lose weight
B.people will give up fast food after reading it
C.it explains many things that we are not well aware of
D.it teaches people how to live a healthy life
70.The author wrote the passage mainly to______________.
A.introduce a healthy diet
B.expose the ugly side of food companies
C.call on the potential readers to live healthily
D.recommend the book written by Moss

Very much at the center of the concept of peer pressure is the expression, “everybody’s doing it”, It is a strong influence of a group, especially of children ,on members of that group to behave as everybody else does. It can be positive or negative. Most people experience it in some way during their lives.
People are social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly surprising that part of their self-respect comes from the approval of others. This instinct is why the approval of peers, or the fear of disapproval, is such a powerful force in many people’s lives. It is the same instinct that drives people to dress one way at home and another way at work, or to answer”fine”when a stranger asks “how are you?”enen if it is not necessarily true. There is a practical aspect to this:it helps society to function efficiently and encourages a general level of self-discipline that simplifies day-to –day interaction.
For certain individuals,seeking social acceptance is so important that it becomes like an addiction;in order to satisfy the desire,they may go so far as to abandon their sense of right and wrong. Teens and young adults may feel forced to use drugs ,or join gangs that encourage criminal behavior. Mature adults may sometimes feel pressured to cover up illegal activity at the company where they work,or end up in dedt because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they can’t afford in an effort to “keep up with the Joneses.”
However,peer pressure is not always negative, A student whose friends are good at academics may be urged to study harder and get good grades. Players on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win. This type of influence can also get a friend off drugs,or to help an adult take up a good habit or drop a bad one. Study groups and class projects are examples of positive peer groups that encourage people to better themselves.
Schools try to teach kids about the dangers of negative peer pressure. They teach kids to stand up and be themselves, and encourage them to politely decline to do things that they belive are wrong. Similarly,it can be helpful to encourage children to greet the beneficial influence of positive peer groups.

Recently, a survey on homework preference has been conducted among seni or three students.
The results are as follows: more than half of th e students, about 54%, usually put their math homework in the first place while only 7% would rank Chinese as the most important. Meanwhile, English is regarded as most significant by 18% of the participants, and the other subjects attract the attention of 21% of the students.
Undoubtedly, the results reflect the position of each subject in Gaokao. As one of the fundamental subjects, math always comes first in all subjects. Besides, some students hold the view that math is most interesting and challenging, and it seems easier for us to have a senseexists of achievement in it. By contrast, some students, especially boys, find it hard to obtain immediate results when doing Chinese and English homework.
However, each subject has its unique charm and they are of the same value. Therefore, I think we should take every subject seriously and improve our studies in a balanced way.(152)
