Louis Braille was born in a village near in 1809. When he was three years old, he had an accident in his father’s workshop. He picked up a sharp tool and somehow poked it into his eyes. Within months, little Louis was blind in both eyes.
He was sent to a special school for the blind in and learnt to read books which had large, raised capital letters. He also learnt to play the piano, the organ and the violin. Later, he became a master at the school. Braille was interested in finding a system which could be used for blind people to write as well as to read. By 1829, he had worked out the ‘six dots’ system. At first, nobody wanted blind people to use his system, because they thought that they should read raised letters, not dots.
But in 1854, the school where Braille had been a student and a teacher adopted his system. Soon, others followed and, since that time, the Braille system has become the main method by which blind people all over the world read.
Sadly, Braille died in 1852 and never knew about the success of his system.

What is color? Why do some objects look red, others green, others blue?
Color is caused by reflected light. Something that is red reflects mostly red light. It reflects a little green or blue light, too, but we do not see it. In the same way, a green objects reflects mostly green light. White objects reflect all colors of light. Black objects do not reflect any light.
What happens to the colors of light that are not reflected? They are absorbed by the object. The darker the color, the less light is reflected and the more light is absorbed. Light that is absorbed is turned into heat. For this reason, dark _colored clothes are warmer in the sunlight than light-colored clothes.

Passage B
When you turn on the radio, you hear an advertisement. When you watch television, you hear and see an advertisement. If you turn the pages of a newspaper or magazine, again you find an advertisement. If you walk down the street, you see one advertisement board after another. All day, every day, people who want to sell something compete to catch your attention. As a result, advertisements are almost everywhere.
In the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. Many TV stations, newspapers, magazines, radio stations are privately owned. The government does not give them money. So where does the money come from? From advertisements, without advertisements, there would not be these private businesses.
Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is? Through the years, people have given different answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of “keeping you name before the public.” And some people thought that advertising was “truth well told.” Now more and more people tend to define it in this way: Advertising is the paid, nonpersonal (非亲自的), and usually persuasive (有说服力的) presentation of goods, services and ideas by identified sponsors through various media.
First, advertising is usually paid for. Various sponsors pay for the ads we see, read, and hear over the various media. Second, advertising is nonpersonal. It is not face-to-face communication. Although you may feel that a message in a certain advertisement is aimed directly at you, in reality, it is directed at large groups of people. Third, advertising is usually persuasive. Directly or indirectly it urges people to do something. All advertisements try to convince people that the product, idea, or service advertised can benefit them. Fourth, the sponsor of the advertisement must be identified. From the advertisement, we can see if the sponsor is a corporation, or a committee, or an individual. Fifth, advertising reaches us through traditional and non-traditional mass media. Included in the traditional media are newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and films. Non-traditional media include the mail, matchbox covers, and billboards.
The existence of the privately owned mass media depends financially on the support of _____.
the government
their owners’ families
advertisements
the audience
The passage seems to say that different definitions of advertising are given due to ______.
the change of time
the subject of the advertisements
people’s age difference
people’s different perspective
According to the passage, who are most probably paying for the advertisements? ______.
Corporations.
Committees.
Individuals.
All of the above.
Which of the following is considered nontraditional mass media? _______.
Newspapers
The mail
Magazines
Films
According to the passage, which of the following statements about the features of advertisements is NOT true? ______.
Advertising must be honest and amusing
Advertising is meant for large groups of people
There is the description of things advertised
The sponsors are always mentioned
