    In every walk of life, we can find advertisements. Radios, televisions, newspapers and mobile phones are filled with advertisements. Even when we read emails, we can find advertisements. Advertisements influence people's behaviour. It can be possible that I do not have that need without seeing an advertisement, but after seeing or hearing, I want to buy that thing. For example, I have a mobile phone. It is working well but after seeing the advertisement of another mobile with more features, I want that mobile now. Advertisements are the best way to create needs among the consumers.

    The advertisement helps us in making life better. It motivates us to work hard so that we can buy better things. It gives knowledge about new products and motivates us to make them better than the things before. It is a great motivation to invent new products.

    The advertisement also has a bad side. It motivates us towards materialism (物质主义). We want new things all the time, which motivates us to earn more money. Therefore, we do not have time for each other. We like to do those things from which we can earn more money instead of sitting with friends or family members.

    In conclusion, every coin has two sides. In my view, the advertisement is a great source of knowledge. It also motivates us to work hard and make life more Interesting.

(1)、Advertisements can be the best way to create _____.
A、needs B、arts C、actors D、televisions
(2)、What does the underlined word "motivates" mean in Chinese?
A、封闭 B、劝说 C、刺激 D、指出
(3)、What's the bad side of the advertisement according to the third paragraph?
A、It makes us have no time to stay with friends or family members. B、It wastes so much money which we should spend on other valuable things. C、It interrupts us when we enjoy our films. D、It allows us to spend more time on TV.
(4)、What's the writer's opinion about the advertisement?
A、She is against it. B、She thinks it has advantages. C、She has no opinion about it. D、She thinks we should make less advertisements.

①Some people think that we aren't really able to form memories before our fourth or fifth birthdays. But scientists say this is untrue. They think we form memories at a very young age. However, the memories seem to change as we get older.

②Researchers in Newfoundland, Canada, interviewed 140 children aged between 4 and 13. First, they asked the children to describe their earliest memory and tell their ages. Next, they asked their parents to make sure the event actually happened. All the answers were recorded. The researchers waited for two years before they went back to the children and asked them again," What's your earliest memory?"

③Nearly all the children were aged between 4 and 7 in the first interview. They said something very different in the second interview. However, many of the children who were between 10 and 13 at the first interview described exactly the same memory in the second interview. This seems to suggest that our memories change in the early years, but at around the age of ten, they make the things that we remember fixed.

④The researchers are now looking into why children remember certain events and not others. We sometimes think that most first or early memories are about very stressful things that happened to us as children, because bad things stand out in our minds. But in this study, stressful things were only a small part of what the children said they remembered. More often, children's early memories were happy ones. The researchers are trying to work out the reasons. We can surely look forward to more fascinating discoveries about memories in the near future.

 From voluntarily collecting historical materials related to the Great Wall in his Shanxi hometown in Province to becoming an official cultural heritage(遗产) protector, Yuan Xuerui has spent over twenty years safeguarding the ancient wonder.

 China's Great Wall is one of the great wonders of the world and also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built from 3 BC to the 1800s on the north of the country, the Great Wall has a total length of more than 20,000 kilometers.

 Yuan, 55, was born in Qingxibao at the foot of the ancient wall in Shanxi's Daixian county, which is part of the city of Xinzhou. His love for the ancient wall encouraged him to protect it, and when not engaged(从事) in farm work, he spent most of his time walking along the wall to collect bricks that had fallen off due to the long time and prepare for repairs. "What others think as a difficult and dull task of cultural heritage protection often brings me unexpected discoveries," Yuan said.

 He officially became a cultural heritage worker in 2018, and since then his duties have expanded from collecting bricks to organizing ancient documents related to the wall to better tell stories about it. As a heritage worker, Yuan has come to understand the meaning of the Great Wall. "Each brick has endured(忍受) the test of time over hundreds of years-in some cases more than a thousand-carrying rich historical memories," he said.

"This summer, Yuan organized a campaIgn(活动) to encourage people to collect bricks for the future repair of the wall. Many bricks were taken away from the Great Wall by local villagers to build their houses in the1960s and 1970s.("As villagers' awareness of the need to protect the wall has grown, nowadays, when locals find fallen bricks along the Great Wall, they will pick them up," he said. "If they see rubbish, they will also pick it up and throw it into bins."
