Should we have printed advertisements?" There are many reasons for people to answer this question. Many people have strong views and feel that ads are nothing more than useless junk mail, while other people feel it is an important source of information. Here are some reasons why we should have advertisements in newspapers and magazines. One reason is ads give us information about what is available. Looking at ads we can find out what is on sale and what is new in the market. This is an easy way of shopping. Another reason is that advertisements promote business. When shopkeepers compete against each other, they try to sell their goods as cheap as possible or attract buyers by offering discount. In this case, buyers get the beneficial effects of this competition. They save their money. On the other hand, some people argue that ads should not be put in newspapers and magazines. Firstly, ads cost the shopkeepers a lot of money to print into paper. Besides, some people don't like finding junk mail in their letter boxes. People may also find that ads are not very

interesting. Ads also influence people to buy items they don't need and can't really afford. Ads use up a lot of space and a lot of effort has to be made to make the ads eye-catching.

“2012” is Roland Emmerich's film which uses the Mayan calendar and other end-of-days prophecies for their doomsday scenario. It imagines the world coming to an end in 2012. 2012 film brings off a series of wonders. The movie hits its peak early on. It starts when Cusack drives a limo through the streets of Los Angeles as freeways and skyscrapers crumble all around him from the shock of a 10.5 earthquake. The preposterous flying sequence is equally thrilling. The climax occurs aboard the giant ark, when an equipment malfunction almost threatens the entire mission. Unfortunately, the crucial sequence is not filmed or edited with the requisite clarity. In 2012 film, Emmerich leaves us befuddled as to exactly what is happening to whom. However, Emmerich' 2012 deserves credit for offbeat casting. Cusack supplies his trademark hangdog charm. McCarthy has perhaps his best role ever as Peet's cocky. Danny Glover lends dignity to the role of the tormented president. Chiwetel Ejiofor, as the chief scientist, brings a moving sense of anguish to a stock role. Platt has fun playing the villain of the piece, and Woody Harrelson also chews the scenery as a bug-eyed radio prophet trying to warn his listeners about Armageddon. All in one, 2012's cinematography, production design and visual effects are awards-worthy. Music also propels the movie. It presents American Idol runner-up, Adam Lambert, who provides a rousing anthem over the end credits.

47. What is the text mainly about?A. A review of a new film, 2012B. The process in making the new film, 2012C. An amusing story dealing with thrilling experienceD. A box office movie produced by Roland Emmerich's filmE. How the film is accomplished through excellent visual effects

48. Which statement is TRUE according to the text?

A. The film presents Danny Glover, American Idol runner-up.B. McCarthy has his best role in the film as the chief scientist.C. The crucial sequence is filmed and edited well with the requisite clarity.D. 2012's cinematography, production design and visual effects are not good.E. The scenario is written based on the Mayan calendar and other end-of-days prophecies.

49. Who plays as the antagonist role in the movie?A. Platt B. CusackC. McCarthyD. Danny GloverE. Chiwetel Ejiofor

50. “All in one, 2012's cinematography, production design and visual effects are awards-worthy”What does the sentence mean?

A. Award won’t be given to the movie.B. The movie deserves to win the award. C. The movie should have several aspects.D. Visual effect is worthy in producing the movie.E. The art and methods of film photography are necessary.
