26、How to Design a Logo

A great logo is more than images and words,and a good logo tells a story about your company-who you are,what you do and what you stand for.【1】And it is why it’s important that you take the time to do it right. Fortunately, you don’t have to do it alone.The steps below will help you design a good logo.

Determine the primary function of your logo.

Being clear on why you need a logo can guide your design.Having a strong logo can help consumers recognize your brand more readily. Consumers shop with their eyes and logos can be easier to remember than names,products and services【2】

【3】

It’s important to be clear on who your potential customers are and design the look of your logo to appeal to those who will be using your services.A logo for a flower shop could include a unusual character style and a bright color.

Decide whether to include your company’s name into the logo.

Of course,you want to build name recognition for your business,but making the name part of your logo design may not always be a good idea.Include the name if it is reasonably distinctive but not yet a household word.Do not include the name if it is too long,and doesn’t translate well globally or lacks personality.

Be inspired by but don’t copy successful logos.

While it might be easy to create something that looks like your favorite company’s logo,it will leave an impression on consumers that you’re lazy and uninspired. Look at logos of other companies.【4】These examples give you ideas of what to do and what to avoid.

Keep it simple.

While it may be easy to try to give a lot of messages with your design,trying to do too much will ruin your logo.【5】If there are too many messages in your logo, it will be difficult for the customer to process.

A.Think about your target market.

B.That’s a lot to ask of one piece of art.

C.Ask yourself what you like and don’t like about them.

D.Avoid too many colors, different characters and images.

E.A good logo that conveys your honesty can help put customers at ease.

F.Over time, a customer comes to associate your logo with your company.

G.Show your logo to those connected to you and listen to what they have to say.

27、   Travelling abroad is becoming increasingly popular these years. Some people are afraid of making linguistic mistakes while traveling. Actually, cultural mistakes may be more serious, which can lead to serious misunderstanding.【1】

●Touching Someone

【2】In Mediterranean countries, if you don’t touch someone’s arm when talking to them or if you don’t greet them with kisses or a warm hug, you’ll be considered cold. But backslap(拍背) someone who isn’t a family member or a good friend in Korea, and you’ll make them uncomfortable. In Thailand, the head is considered sacred(神圣的)-never even pat a child on the head.

●Talking Over Dinner

In some countries, like China, Japan and some African nations, the food is the thing, so don’t start chatting about your day’s adventures while everyone else is digging into dinner.  【3】 It’s not because your group is unfriendly, but because meal times are for eating, not talking.

● Removing Your Shoes or Not

Take off your shoes when arriving at the door of a London dinner party and the hostess will find you uncivilized, but fail to remove your shoes before entering a home in Asia, Hawaii, or the Pacific Islands and you’ll be considered disrespectful. So, if you see a row of shoes at the door, start undoing your shoelaces. 【4】

Once you are on the ground of a different country, remain highly sensitive to native behavior. 【5】And don’t feel offended if something seems offensive-like queue jumping. After all, this is a global village, and we are all very different.

A.If not, keep the shoes on.

B.As the saying goes: “Do as Romans do.”

C.Never be completely surprised by anything.

D.Personal spaces are different among countries.

E.You’ll be likely to meet with no response.

G.Watch out for the following cultural mistakes and try to avoid them.

28、A study on astronauts found that a short sleep during the day up to two and a half hours long improved working memory performance. Working memory includes focusing attention on one task while holding other tasks in memory, so a poor working memory could result in errors.

Taking a short sleep may make you think more clearly for the period right after you wake up and maybe hours into the day. Taking a short sleep once or twice a week could lower the risk of heart attacks, according to a 2019 study published in the journal Heart. After tracking more than 3,400 people between the ages of 35 and 75 for slightly more than five years, the researchers found that those who enjoyed occasional short sleep — once or twice a week, for five minutes to an hour — were 48% less likely than those who didn't take a short sleep to experience a heart attack or heart failure.

A lack of quality sleep could lead to overeating because not enough sleep is believed to stimulate hunger and stop hormone (荷尔蒙) signals that communicate fullness. The findings were important because women were at high risk of fatness and sleep disorders, the researchers said, which could both be driven by a high intake of food. Taking a short sleep has been found to improve your creativity. The right side of your brain might experience a strong mental feeling during a short sleep, research suggested. The right side is the hemisphere (半球体) most associated with creative tasks, such as imagination and thinking, while the left is more logical. Researchers monitoring the brain activity of 15 people found that the right side of their brain communicated busily with itself as well as with its left part. The left side of the brain, however, remained relatively quiet. In a January 2020 study of 2,214 Chinese adults aged 60 and older, those who took afternoon sleep for five minutes to two hours showed better mental response than those who didn’t take a short sleep.

【1】What do we know about the study on astronauts?

A．Taking a short sleep surely results in errors.

B．Improving working memory ability needs a long sleep.

C．Sleeping up to one and a half hour is needed during the day.

D．Having a good working memory may complete the task better.

【2】What can we infer about taking a short sleep from paragraph 2?

A．It may make you think clearly all day.

B．It could reduce the risk of heart attacks.

C．It made 48% of people free from a heart attack.

D．It may cause over 3,400 persons to suffer from heart attack.

【3】What does the underlined word “stimulate” in paragraph 3 mean?

A．Refer to.

B．Focus on.

C．Give up.

D．Result in.

【4】In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A．Sports.

B．Education.

C．Health.

D．Technology.

29、   Breathing dirty air can cost someone's life span(寿命) months—even years, a new study finds.Worldwide, air pollution lowers average life spans by a year. Scientists shared their new findings in Environmental Science & Technology Letters.

Air pollution has been linked to many health problems.Most earlier studies has looked at how tiny air pollutants affected rates of illness or death. But now an environmental scientist, Joshua Apte, is going even further. He works at the University of Texas, Austin. He together with his team is looking at life expectancy, hoping to make the threat easier to understand.

PM 2.5 is what scientists call tiny particles of pollution in the air. Higher levels of PM 2. 5 can cause health problems and cut months, if not years, from the average life span. This analysis show show pollution affects life expectancy in different parts of the world.

The World Health Organization(WHO) recommends limiting PM 2.5 to 10 micrograms(微克) per cubic (立方)meter of air. Apte's group used data to try to find how this low level would help people. But meeting the WHO standard won't get rid of health damage from dirty air.That's because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter pollution still causes huge risks.

Reducing air pollution could increase life expectancy. The scientists also compared how other threats shorten life spans across the globe. These risk factors included smoking and cancer.

These results show that in poor countries, cleaning up dirty air could greatly increase life spans. It could have as big an effect as cleaning up drinking water, or curing lung cancer. However, in wealthier countries air pollution shortens life expectancy by less than half a year. All forms of cancer, in fact, shorten the average life expectancy by more than 3.5 years.“Knowing this can really help people, or policymakers, decide where to spend their money,” says Kirk Smith.

【1】What is Joshua Apte's team trying to do?

A.Let people understand air pollution better. B.Know how small air pollutants are.

C.Study the life expectancy of different people. D.Study many different healthy problems.

【2】What will happen if one country limits PM 2.5 to 10 micrograms per cube meters?

A.Its people will live a healthy life. B.Its air is very clean.

C.It will get a prize from WHO. D.It still has pollution risks.

【3】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.Cancer is the leading killer in all kinds of diseases.

B.It's very hard to clean up dirty air in a short time.

C.The study will help different countries take different policies.

D.Reducing air pollution can increase all people's lifespans much.

【4】What can be the best title for the text?

A.The Effect of Cancer Is Worse than Dirty Air

B.Air Pollution Is Shortening Lives Worldwide

C.Many Factors Are Affecting People's Health

D.Governments Are Trying to Make Life Span Long
