　　PR: The Wildcard Marketing Strategy
　　What is the true purpose of public relations and how can it really help impact the growth of your small business? (0)______. This is where you, the business owner or marketing executive, come in.
　　Most small business owners think that public relations is too time-consuming of an effort. (8)______. It is just a matter of prioritizing your goals and leveraging the resources that you do have to take advantage of what is an invaluable marketing tactic. Here are a few tips to get you started in the right direction：
　　1. Create several creative story pitches. The way to get into the hearts and minds of the media is through a great story pitch. (9)______.Not only that, but editors may classify you as that annoying self-promoter that won’t stop pitching their product line, and then refer you to the advertising department. When developing story pitches you should ask yourself the following questions: What makes this story different from the hundreds of other stories being submitted? Will this benefit readers financially, professionally, or emotionally in any way? Is this really entertaining or fun to read? If the answer to any of these questions is “No”, then it is time to adjust your stow until the answer is “Yes”.
　　2. Match your target audience with the right media channels. (10)______. Really understanding your target audience will help you in the next step of your PR plan—targeting the right media channels.
　　3. Have a spokesperson or PR firm represent your company. So let’s assume that you have executed your calling campaign and have sparked interest with an editor or reporter looking to secure an interview with someone in your firm. They contact your office but no one is available to take their call. One thing that journalists and editors lack is patience, and rightfully so — they have deadlines to fulfill! (11)______.
　　4. Take advantage of your opportunities when presenting your company. PR results do not happen overnight. You must be patient and persistent. (12)______. So do not forget to include your company information through a sentence describing your company, author byline (if applicable), and a URL of your website. Media professionals will sometimes forget to include this information so it is your job to show it in your press release, articles, or interview.
　　In sum, PR is a wildcard marketing strategy that can yield tremendous results if implemented correctly. Don’t forget that your number-one goal is to get in front of your target audience and the rest will take care of itself.

When mentioning “the ongoing stock market on Wall Street”, the writer ______.

[A] Americans’ ability to take the mortgage interest deduction ranks up there with the right to bear arms and watch football games. Homeownership is part of the American dream, and the U.S. government has long done its part to encourage home buying among citizens of all economic strata. Economist Edmund Phelps, a 2006 Nobel laureate and Columbia University professor, has criticized the U.S. financial sector’s orientation toward financing residential construction and away from business investment and innovation.
　　[B] So, I grew up thinking that renting is perfectly normal. And then, strangely enough, I never did buy a house. I live in New York City and I’m still renting. My own personal narrative shows that it is possible to live a respectable life without ever having owned a home.
　　[C] Is the sacrifice of business investment and innovation the key negative to the financial sector’s focus on housing? That was my key negative, but I also had some animus against the idea that everybody ought to own his or her own home. I thought this was a bizarre social goal.
　　[D] Haven’t you noted in the past that homeownership can reduce the mobility of a workforce? That’s not true in New York or Los Angeles, where there are so many employers. But if you own your home in Peoria and you’re working for some specialized firm, and things don’t go so well there—at that point, you’d like to have the mobility of picking up stakes at no cost and looking for some similar kind of firm elsewhere. To be perfectly honest, that the other side of the coin is that mobility isn’t necessarily right up there with apple pie as something that’s good for us. Because when people are very mobile, they can be very difficult employees.
　　[E] There has been research that shows homeownership makes for better citizens. I can well imagine that some unemployed sociologist would look into that hypothesis. I’m not attacking the idea that people live in conglomerations of houses in proximity to one another, sharing the same water mains and the same newspaper delivery boy and so forth. I’m not objecting to that. That could happen with or without homeownership.
　　[F] Is it emotional, as in, part of the American dream? Or has it just been the best way for people to build wealth? We could argue whether or not it’s the best way. But what is surprising is this new ethos, this new enthusiasm for homeownership suggests that it should be—for people who aren’t rich anyway—the main way they hold their wealth and that there’s something almost un-American about holding your wealth in stocks and bonds. The celebration of homeownership seems to be part of a countermovement against popular owning of shares in corporations.
　　[G] Of course, I come from more of an urban culture. I grew up, until age 6, in Chicago. My parents rented their apartment and, at the end of the Depression, my parents wanted to replicate that situation. So, again, we lived in a somewhat suburban setting outside of New York City and, again, they rented.
　　[H] U.S. government’s improper real estate and financial policies for the crisis paved the way for the seeds. Home Ownership was the American dream. In the 1930s the Great Depression, the United States flagging domestic demand, Roosevelt’s New Deal of the decision-making is one of the establishment of Fannie Mac, to provide for the national housing finance to help people buy housing, to stimulate domestic demand.
　　[I] So, will the next economic expansion look very different? I think we very much need to reorient the financial sector away from housing. The level of housing construction was unsustainable. It had to come to a crashing end. But what we have to hope for is that the financial sector will be able to reinvent itself and start learning to serve the classical functions of allocating finance to competing investment project sand competing innovations and activities. I think somehow the banking industry has lost the expertise to be able to choose among rival investment projects and innovation projects. I don’t think the bankers know anything about alternative energy projects. They’re going to have to acquire that expertise if they’re going to be, as the New York Times put it, “useful” to the economy.

Directions:In this section, there is a passage followed by 5 statements. Go over the passage quickly and mark the answers on the Answer Sheet. For questions 1 - 5, mark　　Y (for Yes) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;　　N (for No) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;　　NG (for Not Given) if the information is not given in the passage.　　Questions 56- 60 are based on the following passage.　　After I left Debrecen I walked for days and put up my tent at night. An old couple driving a horse and cart stopped and spoke to me. I tried out my broken Hungarian and they laughed. But it was obvious they were offering me a lift, so I got up on the cart, with my backpack and tent. They offered me some fiery apricot liqueur, home-made by the look of it. We drank it from the bottle.　　The land was flat. You could see forever. You could see as far as the future. At first we could still see the Hortobagy River, brown in the weak sunshine, and carpets of sunflowers. But then, as we jolted along a track in the cart, there was just the puszta—the dry Great Plain of Hungary. It’s where the Hungarians grow their wheat and catch their wild horses.　　A Hungarian poet once said that the earth and the sky are one in the puszta. I understand what he means. As far as you can see in every direction, the sky comes down and touches the land. This dry yellow land is not beautiful in the usual sense, but being in it, being part of it, I felt a great sense of peace. I have always hated mountains and skyscrapers because they are bigger than I am. But this ... When I lay down and watched the puszta from the back of the cart, it was like being in a great safe flat bed that had no sides but just went on forever. It was then, at that moment, that I felt I could do anything in the world that I wanted. I was eighteen years old.　　Then, in the distance, we saw the horses. At first there was just a cloud of dust. Then, suddenly, about ten small, wiry, brown Hungarian wild horses charged across the Great Plain. They got near enough for me to see them tossing their heads. Two csikos, Hungarian cowboys, were chasing them. The cowboys saw the cart and shouted something. The old man shouted something back and he and the old woman laughed. They said something to me in Hungarian, probably trying to explain what the cowboys had said.　　I fell asleep. When I woke up, the horses and the two csikos had gone but nothing about the scenery had changed. We were still moving forward but it was as if we had stopped.　　I didn’t want us ever to arrive anywhere. I wanted to stay on that cart in the Great Plain forever. But at the same time I knew that when the journey was over, everything was going to be just fine. And it was.　　Statements:　　1．Debrecen is a town in Hungary.　　2．The writer felt a sense of horror because nothing in the scenery was bigger than her.　　3．The writer liked flat scenery better than mountains.　　4．The grass on the Great Plain didn’t change very much.　　5．The writer described a moment when she knew that everything in her life would be bad.
