D
Taste is suc.h a subjective matter that we dori't usually conduct preference tests for food. The most you can say about anyone's preference is that it's one person's opinion.But because the two bigcola companies-Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola-are marketed so aggressively, we've wondered how big arole taste-preference actually plays in brand loyalty.We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-cola or Pepsi fans: Find your brand in a blind tasting.
we inwited staff wolunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi, Diet Coke.or Diet Pepsi.These were people who thought they'd have no trouble telling their brand from the oLher brancl.
We eventuallv located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers.Then we fed them with four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other.rOVe asked them to tell us whether each sample wa.s Coke or Pepsi; then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants' choices \~-ith what mere guesswork could have accom-plished.
Getting all four samples right was a tough test, biit not too tough, we thought, for people whobelieved they could recognize their brand. In the end, only 7 0ut of 19 regular cola drinkers correct-ly identified their brand of choice in all four trial.s. The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse-only 7 out of 27 identified all four samples correctly.
Both groups did better than chance would predict, but nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times.Two people got all'four samples vrrong. Overall, hal.f theparticipants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so tiredness, or taste burn-out, was not a factor. Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.

Howling is a behaviour commonly observed among a wolf pack. As pack animals, wolves work together to hunt and rely on howling as an important means of communication among each other. There are different explanations of a wolf’s howl and it appears that there may be more to discover.
One theory is that wolves howl to bond better together. It’s almost as if howling together helps the pack stay together. Perhaps something similar to people feeling a sense of involvement with each other when singing a song together. But this theory may be wrong, explains Fred H. Harrington, a professor who studies wolf behaviour.
Indeed, there have been times when wolves have been seen one moment howling in a chorus, and the next, quarreling among each other. It appears that usually the lowest-ranking members of the pack may actually be “punished” for joining in the chorus at times. So is howling a way to strengthen a social bond or just a way to reconfirm status among its members? —Why do wolves howl for sure?
What is clear, however, is that howling is often used among packmates to locate each other. Hunting grounds are distant and it happens that wolves may separate from one another at times. When this happens, howling appears to be an excellent means of gathering.
Howling, interestingly, is a contagious behaviour. When one wolf starts to howl, very likely others will follow. This is often seen to occur in the morning, as if wolves were doing some sort of “roll call” where wolves all howl together to report their presence.
【小題1】What is the possible similarity between wolves’ howling together and humans’ singing in chorus?

A.The act of calling each other.B.The sense of accomplishment.
C.The act of hunting for something.D.The sense of belonging to a group.
【小題2】Why does Harrington think the “social bond” theory may be wrong?
A.Wolves separate from each other after howling.
B.Wolves tend to protect their hunting grounds.
C.Wolves sometimes have quarrels after howling together.
D.Wolves of low rank are encouraged to join in the chorus.
【小題3】Researchers are sure that wolves often howl to ______.
A.show their ranks B.find their companions
C.report the missing onesD.express their loneliness
【小題4】“Howling… is a contagious behaviour” (in the last paragraph) means _______.
A.howling is a signal for hunting
B.howling is a way of communication
C.howling often occurs in the morning
D.howling spreads from one to another

"S. H.E. is going to sing at the CCTV annual Spring Festival Evening Party, is that true?" cried out Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl in Shanghai and die-hard S. H.E. fan.
After checking it on the Internet, Peng quickly phoned friends to spread the news. For fans like her, S. H. E. ’s performance is perhaps the only part of the old fashioned evening to get excited about.
The Taiwanese band is made up of Selina, Hebe and Ella. Their name comes from the first letter of each of the singers' English names.
Last week S. H. E. announced they would perform in Las Vegas, US, over Christmas and then in Guangzhou on January 15.
At their Shanghai show on October 30, hundreds of parents waited outside the Hongkou Stadium. Inside, thousands of teenagers sang, cried and shouted as the band performed.
"I love their music, healthy image and everything related to them. Thank God that, although my parents don't understand why I love them so much, they still bought me a ticket for that show," said Peng about the Shanghai performance.
It is not just on the mainland that the three girls have made audiences much excited. In the past year the band has passed through Taiwan, Hong Kong and even Singapore and Malaysia.
When the three high school girls entered a singing contest in Taiwan in 2000, none of them ever dreamed of being a superstar. "We had never met before, and we didn't talk at all at the beginning," recalled Ella.
When asked about the secret of their success, she said, "Our average looks and not-so-expensive clothes keep us close to our fans. We are happy to be the girls next door, your singing sisters."
"It's really a magical journey, from day-dreaming high school girls to singers performing on the same stage as our idols(偶像). Nothing but magical," she said.
【小題1】 Why was Peng Weiye, a Senior 2 girl, so excited?

A.S.H.E. band will get the old fashioned evening exciting.
B.S. H.E. will perform in Las Vegas over Christmas.
C.Her parents bought her a ticket for S. H. E. Is Shanghai show.
D.S. H.E. will perform on the CCTV Spring Festival Evening Party.
【小題2】How did the Taiwanese band get the name?
A.Their fans gave the name to them. B.Their idols had a deep influence on them.
C.A singing contest gave their idea of the band name.
D.The first letters of Selina, Hebe and Ella form the band name.
【小題3】What do you know about Peng Weiye?

B.She will watch the performance in Guangzhou on January 15.
C.She pays close attention to everything about S. H. E.

B.They were close friends when they entered a singing contest.
