[00:07.600] --- Listen to the tape then answer the question below.
[00:13.040] --- Who won the prize for the biggest biscuit?
[00:18.360] No one can avoid being influenced by advertisements.
[00:22.640] Much as we may pride ourselves on our good taste, we are no longer free to choose the things we want,
[00:29.440] for advertising exerts a subtle influence on us.
[00:34.240] In their efforts to persuade us to buy this or that product,
[00:38.520] advertisers have made a close study of human nature and have classified all our little weaknesses.
[00:46.640] Advertisers discovered years ago that all of us love to get something for nothing.
[00:52.600] An advertisement which begins with the magic word FREE can rarely go wrong.
[00:59.120] These days, advertisers not only offer free samples, but free cars, free houses, and free trips round the world as well.
[01:10.920] They devise hundreds of competitions which will enable us to win huge sums of money.
[01:17.440] Radio and television have made it possible for advertisers to capture the attention of millions of people in this way.
[01:26.280] During a radio programme, a company of biscuit manufacturers once asked listeners to bake biscuits and send them to their factory.
[01:36.600] They offered to pay $10 a pound for the biggest biscuit baked by a listener.
[01:43.160] The response to this competition was tremendous.
[01:46.680] Before long, biscuits of all shapes and sizes began arriving at the factory.
[01:53.040] One lady brought in a biscuit on a wheelbarrow.
[01:57.240] It weighed nearly 500 pounds.
[02:00.360] A little later, a man came along with a biscuit which occupied the whole boot of his car.
[02:07.320] All the biscuits that were sent were carefully weighed.
[02:11.440] The largest was 713 pounds ,
[02:15.880] It seemed certain that this would win the prize.
[02:19.560] But just before the competition closed, a lorry arrived at the factory with a truly colossal biscuit which weighed 2,400 pounds.
[02:31.040] It had been baked by a college student who had used over 1,000 pounds of flour, 800 pounds of sugar, 200 pounds of fat, and 400 pounds of various other ingredients.
[02:45.200] It was so heavy that a crane had to be used to remove it from the lorry.
[02:50.720] The manufacturers had to pay more money than they had anticipated, for they bought the biscuit from the student for $24,000.

[00:01.080] 征购大饼干筒
[00:07.600] ^听录音,然后回答以下问题。
[00:13.040]
[00:18.360] ^没有人能避免受广告的影响。
[00:22.640] ^尽管我们可以自夸自己的鉴赏力如何敏锐,但我们已经无法独立自主地选购自己所需的东西了。
[00:29.440] ^这是因为广告在我们身上施加着一种潜移默化的影响。
[00:34.240] ^做广告的人在力图劝说我们买下这种产品或那种产品之前,
[00:38.520] ^已经仔细地研究了人的本性,并把人的弱点进行了分类。
[00:46.640] ^做广告的人们多年前就发现我们大家都喜欢免费得到东西。
[00:52.600] ^凡是用“免费”这个神奇的词开头的广告很少会失败的。
[00:59.120] ^目前,做广告的人不仅提供免费样品,而且还提供免费汽车,免费住房,免费周游世界。
[01:10.920] ^他们设计数以百计的竞赛,竞赛中有人可赢得巨额奖金。
[01:17.440] ^电台、电视使做广告的人可以用这种手段吸引成百万人的注意力。
[01:26.280] ^有一次,在电台播放的节目里,一个生产饼干的公司请听众烘制饼干送到他们的工厂去。
[01:36.600] ^他们愿意以每磅10美元的价钱买下由听众烘制的最大的饼干。
[01:43.160] ^这次竞赛在听众中引起极其热烈的反响。
[01:46.680] ^不久,形状各异,大小不一的饼干陆续送到工厂。
[01:53.040] ^一位女士用手推车运来一个饼干,
[01:57.240] ^重达500磅左右。
[02:00.360] ^相隔不一会儿,一个男子也带来一个大饼干,那个饼干把汽车的行李箱挤得满满的。
[02:07.320] ^凡送来的饼干都仔细地称量。
[02:11.440] ^最重的一个达713磅,
[02:15.880] ^看来这个饼干获奖无疑了。
[02:19.560] ^但就在竞赛截止时间将到之际,一辆卡车驶进了工厂,运来了一个特大无比、重达2,400磅的饼干。
[02:31.040] ^它是由一个大学生烘制的,用去1,000多磅面粉、800磅食糖、200磅动物脂肪及400磅其他各种原料。
[02:45.200] ^饼干份量太重了,用了一台起重机才把它从卡车上卸下。
[02:50.720] ^饼干公司不得不付出比他们预计多得多的钱,因为为买下那学生烘制的饼干他们支付了24,000美元。
