  Passage Two

  It is football time again. Currently, the qualifying rounds are being played to decide which countries will send teams to the 2010 World Cup. Soccer is becoming more and more popular on a worldwide scale and these qualifying legs are causing much excitement. The game is popular at club level as well. Many fans go every week to support their team, whether the event is a home or away one, hoping to get a result. They all hope an attacking game, with a lot of goals being scored. Obviously, they do not want to see a boring, defensive match where the players are aimlessly passing the ball to each other.

  Sadly, not all the action always takes place on the ground. All too frequently, there is action in the stands, too. Football supporters, most of whom declare their loyalty by wearing their team's colours, in the form of shirts, are not known for their quiet behaviour. They are often very noisy, shouting noisy encouragement to their team and singing deafening songs. There is much rivalry between supporters. Mostly, this is good-natured, but trouble can easily arise. Fans get angry if they feel that a referee has made a wrong decision, perhaps giving one of their team a red or yellow card unfairly, or perhaps failing to notice a foul (犯规) committed by a member of the other team. When trouble breaks out in a football crowd, it can be difficult to control. Stadium officials often seat the opposing fans in separate parts of the ground as a precaution against fighting. However, preventing trouble is more difficult outside the ground. In the worst cases, riot police have to be called in.

  Unfortunately, there are some fans who enjoy this violent aspect of football. These football hooligans (8fuffe) really enjoy a running battle with the police, and Call up other people to throw stones and bottles at them. They regard football not as a sport, but as an excuse for troublemaking. Inevitably, their behaviour spoils the reputation of the game.

  36. The qualifying rounds are played to _ .

  A. attract soccer fans

  B. select the best teams for the next rounds

  C. raise funds for the organizers

  D. decide which players are the best

 

  37. What do the football fans hope to see?

  A. A home game.

  B. A defensive game.

  C. An evenly matched game.

  D. An exciting game.

 

  38. Fans get angry when they think _ .

  A. the referee is unfair

  B. their team is losing.

  C. their team is not playing well

  D. there is an intentional foul

 

  39. Riot police are called in _ .

  A. to separate the opposing fans inside the ground

  B. as a precaution against trouble inside the ground

  C. to stop fighting occurring outside the ground

  D. as a precaution against fighting outside the ground

 

  40. It is implied in the last paragraph that .

  A. football fans enjoy spoiling games

  B. football hooligans are crazy about the games

  C. football can be an excuse for troublemaking

  D. football has a poor reputation

 

  Passage Three

  Our sense of smell, which we normally take for granted, is nowadays being increasingly used for purposes which might surprise us if we were aware of them. One area in which smells are created to achieve particular results is marketing. For some time manufacturers have taken advantage of our sense of smell with regard to household goods. Millions of dollars are spent on product research in the hunt for the right smell as it is believed perfume influences the way consumers perceive a brand.
