It strikes fear into the hearts of most business owners, but the weak economy does not scare Nancy Mac Mullen, a shoemaker on the island. A look around her Oak Bluffs workshop will tell you why: it is overrun these days with queued shoes.
Ms. Mac Mullen, 56, is operating a two-week waiting list before she even gets a look at your footwear. Same goes for jackets, luggage sets and golf bags. “People are fixing things rather than buying new stuff,” she said. “Yeah business is going well.” As long as people have shoes on their feet, Ms. Mac Mullen will be able to keep her business going.
“This pair of shoes has been in four times. People wear their shoes to death,” she said. Then of course, the factories don’t make shoes as they used to. “They’re cutting costs with the materials. More lightweight manufacturing,” Ms. Mac Mullen said. “I think these designers make shoes for carpeted offices in office buildings.”
But she admits that business hasn’t always been this good, which is why she decided to include clothing and other repair work.
Now she says there are reliable cycles to her business, cycles that mirror somewhat the rhythm of a resort(度假勝地) island in New England. “It gets really busy in the fall, with people pulling out their shoes after summer,” she said.
Ms. Mac Mullen closed last week for a trip to Boston, and the workload waiting for her on her return was huge. “It is hard for me to catch up,” she said. Then she added with a smile, “People have to be patient.”
21. Nancy Mac Mullen’s business is going well mainly because _____.
A. she is offering service of high quality
B. people are trying to save money
C. the economy is in a booming state
D. her shop is in downtown Oak Bluffs
22. What can be learned about Ms. Mac Mullen?
A. She is a patient and skillful lady.
B. She is fond of collecting golf bags.
C. She is dissatisfied with some shoes designers.
D. She is happy few people are wearing leather shoes.
23. It can be learned from the passage that Ms. Mac Mullen _____.
A. started her business about 20 years ago
B. has a heavy workload in autumn
C. is wearing her shoes to death
D. is too busy to take a trip
B
Many people trying to sell homes find that an increase in home prices has turned the market in their favor. But sellers can still get the short end of the deal if they aren’t careful. Here are a few tips for you:
Don’t test your luck. Of course you think anyone who moves into your lovely home should be willing to pay top dollars, especially if you’ve recently invested in some improvements. But listing a home at a price that’s too high above the market price could turn away some buyers.
Buyers noticing that the home still hasn’t sold may begin to assume there’s something wrong with the house and use that as a reasonable excuse for offering a lower price. And if a home hasn’t received any offers after two weeks, it might be time to reset the price.
A price that’s too low can bring about an undesired outcome. Listing your home at or slightly below the market price can have the effect of drawing in a large group of buyers and increase the chances that a home will receive multiple (many) offers. But setting the price too low comes with several risks. One possibility is that buyers will get skeptical of the home that is listed for $ 15,000 to $ 20,000 less than similar homes in the area, especially if it’s not properly marketed. Once again, people might assume there is something wrong with the home and may not bother to look at it.
Spy on the competition. Going to other people’s open houses can give you a better sense of how your home compares to others on the market. Check out the finishes in their kitchens, the size of their backyards and use the information to figure out where your home should fit in the range of the price. But don’t set your pricing just on what you see elsewhere.
24. What does the underline part in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. To be at a disadvantage B. To get the upper hand
C. To have control over the situation D. To be unable to fit in
25. What should home sellers do according to the passage?
A. Price your house on the basis of its geographic location.
B. Price your house slightly above the market price after decorating it.
C. Change the price if no offer has been received within a week.
D. Change your house at a price slightly below the market price.
26. If you set the price of your house too low, _____.
A. buyers might think it not worthwhile to go to have a look
B. you are likely to come into conflict with the neighborhood sellers
C. your house will be crowded with buyers within a couple of days
D. chances of your house being sold at a better price will be greatly increased
27. What is the benefit of going to other people’s open house?
A. You can pick up some useful lessons on house selling.
B. You can get your pricing mainly based on what you see elsewhere.
C. You can work out how much money you should ask for your home.
D. You can know how to make your house stand out against other houses.
C
There is a world of difference between a horror movie and a comedy- the former scares you to half death while the latter leaves you rolling on the floor with laughter. But try watching them without the background music. You just decide they’re not so different after all.
Music and movies have been intertwined since the dawn of motion picture, even before the voices of actors were recorded. In movies, music helps to provide a sense of time and place, convey ideas about the characters and, most importantly, draw emotions out of the audience.
Studies have long shown that our heart rates and anxiety levels rise and fall depending on the speeds of the music we hear. Film composers armed with this knowledge will use strong changes in music speed to arouse fear among audiences. Slowing the speed of the music will create the opposite effect, bringing about a sense of inner peace.
The use of dissonant(不協(xié)調(diào)的) tones and noises is another technique that heightens tensions. Humans will naturally become uneasy when we hear dissonant sounds because such noises are typically associated with danger, like those that animals make to warn against predators(捕食者). As a result, countless horror movies soundtracks use instrument combinations like double basses and high, screeching(尖刺的) violins.
As vital as it is, the best film music is subtle (巧妙的). All that audiences are supposed to feel is a heightened sense of emotion-they shouldn’t realize what has caused it. Only when the music is taken out of the film should audiences understand its effects.
In keeping with this principle, some film makers are even using what’s called “infrasound(次聲波)” to bring about fear. While we may not be able to hear it because its frequency is below that range of the human ear, infrasound has been proven to cause anxiety, shivering (顫抖) and even sorrow. For example, infrasound was used in the soundtrack of the 2007 horror movie Paranormal Activity, and audiences reported extremely high fear levels despite the lack of action throughout the movie. “It doesn’t affect everyone equally,” said British science writer Philip Ball, but he predicted that “we all see more of it in movies in the future”.
28. What is the article mainly about?
A. The differences between horror movies and comedies.
B. The fearful effect of adding infrasound in movies.
C. How filmmakers employ music to affect our emotions.
D. Why is it important to use background music in a movie.
29. The underlined word in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _____?
A. well prepared B. partly separated C. changed gradually D. closely linked
30. To arouse fear among audiences, film soundtracks _____.
A. carry odd and loud music inside
B. apply inharmonious sounds and noises
C. slow down the speed of music
D. use instrument combinations like violins and pianos
31. According to the article, infrasound _____.
A. is not easy for the audience to notice.
B. makes the audience at peace
C. has the same effect on audiences
D. is used to make up for the lack of action in movies
