“In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.” “Two full inches in the first three days!” These are the kinds of statements used in magazine,newspaper,radio and television ads., promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device.The promoters of products say they can shape the legs, slim the face,smooth wrinkles, or in some other ways to add to beauty or desirability. Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoters.The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health. To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation、If the product is a drug, FDA (Food and Drug Administration)can require proof (证明)under the Food,Drug,and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market.But if the product is a device,FDA has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness.If a product already on the market is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action,including seizure(查封)of the product. One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, which had been sold for reducing the waistline.The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads.FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life. Obviously, most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings (法律诉讼),and new devices appear continually.Before buying, it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items. It can be inferred that ads、mentioned in the text are______.A.objective
B.costly
C.unreliable
D.illegal

Rae Armantrout, who has been a poetry professor at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) for two decades, has won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book,“Versed”.“I’m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings,as compared to even the National Book Critics Award, which I was also surprised and delighted to win,said Armantrout. “For a long time? my writing has been just below the media radar, and to have this kind of attention, suddenly, with my 10th book, is really surprising? Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelor’s degree at UC Berkeley,where she studied with noted poet Denise Levertov,and her master’s in creative writing from San Francisco State University.She is a founding member of Language Poets, a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used and raises questions to make the reader think. In March, she won the National Book Critics Circle Award for “Versed”. “This book has gotten more attention,” Armantrout said,“but I don’t feel as if it’s better.” The first half of “Versed” focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United States as it fought the war against Iraq、The second half looks at the dark forces casting a shadow over her own life after Armantrout was diagnosed with cancer in 2006. Armantrout was shocked to learn she had won the Pulitzer but many of her colleagues were not.“Rae Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry,said Seth Lerer, head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD. “Versed”,published by the Wesleyan University Press, did appear in a larger printing than her earlier works,which is about 2 700 copies.The new edition is scheduled to appear in May. According to Rae Armantrout, _________.

The establishment of the Third Reich influenced events in American history by starting a chain of events which culminated in war between Germany and the United States.The complete destruction of democracy, the persecution of Jews, the war on religion, the cruelty and barbarism of the Nazis, and especially the plans of Germany and her allies, Italy and Japan, for world conquest caused great indignation in this country and brought on fear of another world war、While speaking out against Hitler^s atrocities, the American people generally favored isolationist policies and neutrality.The Neutrality Acts of 1935 and 1936 prohibited trade with any belligerents or loans to them、In 1937, the President was empowered to declare an arms embargo in wars between nations at his discretion. American opinion began to change somewhat after President Roosevelt’s “quarantine the ag-gressor” speech at Chicago (1937) in which he severely criticized Hitler’s policies.Germany’s seizure of Austria and the Munich Pact for the partition of Czechoslovakia (1938) also aroused the American people.The conquest of Czechoslovakia in March, 1939, was another rude awakening to the menace of the Third Reich.In August, 1939, came the shock of the Nazi-Soviet Pact and in September the attack on Poland and the outbreak of European war.The United States attempted to maintain neutrality in spite of sympathy for the democracies arrayed against the Third Reich.The Neutrality Act of 1939 repealed the arms embargo and permitted “cash and carry” exports of arms to belligerent nations.A strong national defense program was begun.A draft act was passed (1940) to strengthen the military services.A Lend Act (1941) authorized the President to sell, exchange, or lend materials to any country deemed necessary by him for the defense of the United States.Help was given to Britain by exchanging certain overage destroyers for the right to establish American bases in British territory in the Western Hemisphere.In August, 1940, President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill met and issued the Atlantic Charter, which proclaimed the kind of a world which should be established after the war.In December,1941,Japan launched the unprovoked attack on the United States at Pearl Harbor、Immediately thereafter, Germany declared war on the United States. One item occurring before 1937 that the author does not mention in his list of actions that alienated the American public was________.A.the burning of the ReichstagB.German plans for world conquestC.Nazi barbarismD.the persecution of religious groupsThe Lend-Lease Act was designed to_________.A.help the BritishB.strengthen the national defense of the United StatesC.promote the Atlantic CharterD.avenge Pearl HarborThe American Policy during the years 1935—1936 may be described as being________.A.watchfulB.isolationistC.peacefulD.indifferentThe Neutrality Act of 1939 ______.A.permitted the selling of arms to belligerent nationsB.antagonized JapanC.permitted the British to trade only with the AlliesD.led to the Lend-Lease ActThe United States entered the war against Germany________.A.because Germany declared warB.because Japan was an ally of GermanyC.after Germany had signed the Nazi-Soviet PactD.after peaceful efforts had failed请帮忙给出每个问题的正确答案和分析,谢谢!
