The key to any successful garage sale (家庭旧物出售) is to get the
word out. The best means of advertising your sale is to place an ad
in the local newspaper. If you have a city and neighborhood paper,
make sure you advertise in both. The ad should be large enough that
it stands out. It should also include information on where the sale
is located with directions, the
time the sale will start and end. An ad should be placed at least two
days before the sale and run until the day of your event. That way
people can plan their route (路线) to the sale in advance.
Signs are another great way to inform your community. Post them in
places where people gather, such as stores and community centers.
Some businesses have a central bulletin board (布告栏), which is the
best place to advertise. Other places to post are at the local
college or university campus. This is especially helpful if your sale
is happening in August or early September when students have returned
to school and are looking for cheap finds.
Post signs around your neighborhood. You should also place both
ads and direction signs, especially if you're located on a side
street without a major presence. Signs will attract and direct people.
Just make sure you print in bold letters and use large direction
signs so people can read the information from the front seat of their
car.
36、 The best way of getting out the news of your garage sale is to
______.
A. publish the news online B. visit people door-to-door
C. advertise in the local newspaper D. make phone calls to your

Task 2
Directions:
This task is the same as Task i. The 5 questions or
unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.
Borrowing to start a business is not easy. Getting a bank loan,
particularly for a new small business, is like going through the eye
of a needle.
Banks favor established business people with a solid credit rating
and a large bank account. They should also have experience in the
business they propose to enter, and offer well-prepared business
plans that show the ability to repay the loans. If you are not such a
person, then you need to double your preparations to convince the
banker to lend you that much needed start-up capital. If your
business is new and small, bankers will need to know as much as
possible about you and your business.
However, many small business owners often make the mistake of not
being well prepared when going to the bank to apply for the loan.
Surprisingly, many loan applicants don't even have the slightest idea
how or when they intend to repay the money they request. Often they
don't even know how much money they need. When asked how much money
they want to borrow, many people give these two common responses:
wonder that lenders say no?
So the most important thing is do your homework before you ask for
a loan.
41、 By saying
eye of a needle
A. the ability to borrow from a bank B. the importance of
borrowing money
C. the difficulty of getting a bank loan D. the start-up of a
new small business
42、 Banks prefer to give a loan to those who ______.
A. are in need of start-up capital B. have the ability to pay
it back
C. own an old and large business D. haven't borrowed money
before
43、 What will bankers do before they give a loan to a new and small
business?
A. Help fill out a special form for getting a loan.
B. Request the business to pay a small deposit.
C. Get enough information about the business.
D. Estimate the size of the loan they will give.
44、 Some small businesses fail to get a bank loan because ______.
A. the form they fill in is incomplete
B. their products are not technically advanced
C. the amount of money they want to borrow is too big
D. they have no clear idea of how much they need to borrow
45、 The writer advises that before applying for a bank loan, the
applicant should ______.
A. thoroughly prepare B. do some market research
C. learn a lot about the bank D. know the upper limit of the
loan
