Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need. A. Goods for auction (拍卖) sales B. Definition of bidding C. Ways to sell more goods by auction D. Auction sales in history E. Brief introduction to auctions F. Making a larger profit as an auctioneer |
1. _____ Auctions are public sales of goods, conducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He asks the crowd assembled in the auction- room to make offers, or "bids", for the various items on sale. He encourages buyers to bid higher figures, and finally names the highest bidder as the buyer of the goods. This is called "knocking down" the goods, for the bidding ends when the auctioneer strikes a small hammer on a table at which he stands. 2. _____ The ancient Roman probably invented sales by auction, and the English word comes from the Latin auction, meaning "increasing". The Romans usually sold in this way the goods taken in war. In England in the eighteenth century, goods were often sold "by the candle": a short candle was lit by the auctioneer, and bids could be made while it stayed alight. 3. _____ Practically all goods whose qualities vary are sold by auction. Among these are coffee, skins, wool, tea, furs, silk and wines. Auction sales are also usual for land and property, furniture, pictures, rare books, old china and similar works of art. 4. _____ An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be sold and where and when they can be viewed by potential buyers. If the advertisement cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of goods to be sold together, called a "lot", is usually given a number. The auctioneer need not begin with Lot 1 and continue in the order of numbers; he may wait until he notices the fact that certain buyers are in the room and then produce the lots they are likely to be interested in. 5. _____ The auctioneer's services are paid for in the form of a percentage of the price the goods are sold for. The auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible. He will not waste time by starting the bidding too low. He will also play on the opponents among his buyers and succeed in getting a high price by encouraging two business competitors to bid against each other. |

When is a low-cost airline not a 'no-frills' airline? When it adds frills, business travellers who have taken enthusiastically to value-for-money air (19) are now being offered packages more commonly associated with mainstream airlines.
To date, the attraction of no-frills airlines has been based on price; forget the more convenient departure points, creature comforts or ease of (20) . Easyjet, Ryanair and Debonair have all undercut leading carriers by as (21) as 70 per cent on high volume routes.
However, in the wake of increased competition and aggressive price-cutting from mainstream airlines such as KLM UK, three no-frills airlines are changing tack. Virgin Express is (22) legroom and is contemplating the (23) of a frequent-flyer programme; Go, owned by British Airways, is wooing the business traveller; and Debonair is introducing a business class section next week.
Debonair, based at Luton Airport, north of London, was launched just over two years ago and went into (24) for the first time this summer. Even when it started, it (25) itself slightly apart from its low-cost competitors by offering more seat comfort, a drink in-flight and a (20) frequent-flyer scheme.
Debonair's business class, called ABC, will give (27) more privacy during the flight, a fully-refundable, flexible ticket, a free bar, a snack and a dedicated check in desk. Yet the (28) will remain as much as 40 per cent below the average business class ticket price.
Other low-cost airlines, however, are standing (29) Even so, Easyjet, which markets itself on lowest price, no catering and direct sell, has now introduced a £10 (30) to allow its passengers to (31) from one Easyjet flight to another. This is effectively a concession to the business traveller, who needs more flexibility.
Attempts by Virgin Express, Go and Debonair to move upmarket are being (32) by some as the beginning of a consolidation in the sector. With so much (33) on price, it seems likely that some players in the low-cost airline business will fail to survive.

Read the beginning of a student’s proposal essay and choose the best answer to each question. The Athlete on the Sidelines It’s midseason in cheer nation. This winter, thousands of girls will travel on college all-star teams to take part in competitions across the country. Practicing more than 20 hours a week, they will refine a routine of back flips, hansprings, round-offs and splits—all perfectly synchronized and timed to an Olympic second. Their goal: first place. Their game: competitive cheerleading, one of the fastest-growing sports for women in America. For too many years, cheerleading has been the subject of derision. Sports Illustrated has lampooned it. Many Americans fail to distinguish it from the sideline shows the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders put on. Back when I was a cheerleader in high school in the late 70s, we were called a sideshow. In those days, we performed at every sporting event—football, basketball and baseball. … What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A、To show readers that cheerleading is problematic.
B、To convince readers that a problem exists.
C、To persuade readers to take competitive cheerleading seriously.
D、To tell readers why she became a cheerleader.
