At a click of mouse consumers can purchase the goods and service they need at online shops. What they have to do is waiting for the goods sent to their homes.We shall all be grateful to the pioneers of online shopping for bringing us such convenience.
Michael Aldrich（the UK）
Online shopping was invented and pioneered by Michael Aldrich in the UK.In 1979 he connected a television via a telephone line to a real-time multi-user transaction（交易）processing computer. He sold mainly Business-to-Business systems. There were a number of significant world firsts with new applications in several business fields.
Jeff Bezos（the USA）
Jeff Bezos defined online shopping and rewrote the rules of commerce.Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web server and browser（浏览器）in 1990.In 1994, Jeff Bezos read an article about how the World Wide Web was growing by 2,300 percent a year.He knew he had to tap into such a great potential for commerce. On July 6, 1995, Bezos launched Amazon.com, which operated out of the garage of his two bedroom home in suburban Seattle, Washington. With almost no publicity, sales took off immediately. The company has now expanded into dozens of product categories, forcing the world’s biggest retailer（零售商）to rethink their business models, and finally changing the way people shop.
Jack Ma（China）
As a child, Jack Ma was bad at maths but fascinated by English. He travelled to the United States in 1995 as a translator to help a Chinese firm recover payment. The attempt failed. But a friend in Seattle showed Ma the Internet, and an idea began brewing.
In 1999, Mr Ma gathered 17 friends and founded Alibaba in his apartment in Hangzhou. Alibaba’s model was simple:allow small and medium-sized Chinese companies to find global buyers they would otherwise only be able to meet at trade shows. It works brilliantly. Alibaba’s sales are now more than those of eBay and Amazon combined.
21.What made Amazon.com a success?
A.Business-to-Business systems. B.The World Wide Web server and browser
C.Commercial publicity. D.Help from retailers.
22.How did Jack Ma have the idea of founding Alibaba?
A.A translator helped him. B.A Chinese firm inspired him.
C. He was introduced to the Internet. D.He was funded by some companies.
23.What do the pioneers have in common?
A.They have improved computers. B.They have sold goods worldwide.
C.They have enlarged product categories.
D.They have contributed to online shopping.
B
An old lady was walking with her basket down the middle of a street in Petrograd to the great confusion of the traffic and with no small danger to herself. It was pointed out to her that the pavement was the place for pedestrians, but she replied:“I’m going to walk where I like. We’ve got liberty now.” It did not occur to the dear old lady that if liberty entitled（授权）the pedestrian to walk down the middle of the road, then the end of such liberty would be universal chaos. Everybody would be getting in everybody else’s way and nobody would get anywhere. Individual liberty would have become social chaos.
There is a danger of the world getting liberty-drunk in these days like the old lady, and it is just as well to remind ourselves of what the rule of the road means. It means that in order that the liberties of all may be preserved, the liberties of everybody must be limited. When the policeman steps into the middle of the road and puts out his hand, he is the symbol not of tyranny（暴政）, but of liberty.
Liberty is not a personal affair only,but a social contract（契约）. In matters which do not touch anybody else’s liberty, of course, I may be as free as 1 like. If I go down the street dressed strangely, who shall say me no? We have a whole kingdom in which we rule alone and can do what we choose. But directly we step out of that kingdom, our personal liberty of action becomes qualified by other people’s liberty.
We all tend to forget this.A reasonable consideration for the rights or feelings of others is the base of social conduct.
24.What does the first paragraph serve as?
A. A background. B. An introduction.
C. A comment. D. An explanation.
25.Which is an example of getting liberty-drunk?
A. Park anywhere you like. B. Walk along the pavement.
C. Wear whatever you like. D. Make loud noises in the wild.
26.What might the author have stated his “rule of the road” (Paragraph 2) as?
A. Follow the orders of policemen. B. Do what you like in private.
C. Never walk in the middle of the road.
D. Do not behave inconsiderately in public.
27.What does the underlined word “qualified” (Paragraph 3) mean?
A. Limited. B. Ruined. C. Improved. D. Educated.
C
The traditional tent cities at festivals such as Glastonbury may never be the same again. In a victory of green business that is certain to appeal to environmentally-aware music-lovers, a design student is to receive financial support to produce eco-friendly tents made of cardboard that can be recycled after the bands and the crowds have gone home.
Major festivals such as Glastonbury throw away some 10,000 abandoned tents at the end of events each year. For his final year project at the University of the West of England, James Dunlop came up with a material that can be recycled. And to cope with the British summer, the cardboard has been made waterproof.
Taking inspiration from a Japanese architect, who has used cardboard to make big buildings including churches, Mr. Dunlop used cardboard material for his tents, which he called Myhabs.
The design won an award at the annual New Designers Exhibition after Mr. Dunlop graduated from his product design degree and he decided to try to turn it into a business.
To raise money for the idea, he toured the City’s private companies which fund new businesses and found a supporter in the finance group Mint. He introduced his idea to four of Mint’s directors and won their support. Mint has committed around ￡500,000 to MyHab and taken a share of 30 per cent in Mr. Dunlop’s business. The first Myhabs should be tested at festivals this summer, before being marketed fully next year.
Mr. Dunlop said that the design, which accommodates two people, could have other uses, such as for disaster relief and housing for the London Olympics.
For music events, the cardboard houses will be ordered online and put up at the sites by the Myhab team before the festival-goers arrive and removed by the company afterwards. They can be personalized and the company will offer reductions on the expense if people agree to sell exterior(外部的) advertising space.
The biggest festivals attract tens of thousands of participants, with Glastonhury having some 150,000 each year. Altogether there are around 100 annual music festivals where people camp in the UK. The events are becoming increasingly environmentally conscious.
28．“Eco-friendly tents” in paragraph 1 refer to tents .
A. economically desirable B. favorable to the environment
C. for holding music performances D. designed for disaster relief
29. Mr. Dunlop established his business .
A. independently with an interest-free loan from Mint
B. with the approval of the City’s administration
C. in partnership with a finance group
D. with the help of a Japanese architect
30. It is implied in the passage that .
A. the weather in the UK. is changeable in summer
B. most performances at British festivals are given in the open air
C. the cardboard tents produced by Mr. Dunlop can be user-tailored
D. cardboard tents can be easily put up and removed by users
31. The passage is mainly concerned with .
A. an attempt at developing recyclable tents
B. some efforts at making full use of cardboards
C. an unusual success of a graduation project
D. the effects of using cardboard tents on music festivals
D
Sports accounts for a growing amount of income made on the sales of commercial time by television companies. Many television companies have used sports to attract views from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers.
An attraction of sports programs for the major U.S. media company is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons — the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able to sell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming. Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men and that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance.
Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings(收视率) are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from the highest income groups in the United States, including many lawyers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling high-priced cars, business and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reach high-income consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs don’t need high ratings to stay on the air.
32. Why would weekend afternoons become dead time without sport programs?
A. Because there would be few viewers
B. Because the advertisers would be off work.
C. Because television programs would go slowly.
D. Because viewers would pay less for watching television.
33. In many families, men make decisions on _________.
A. holiday trips B. sports viewing
C. television shopping D. expensive purchases
34. Why are the ratings not important for golf and tennis programs?
A. their advertisers are carmakers B. their viewers are attracted by sports
C. their advertisers target at rich people.
D. their viewers can afford expensive cars
35. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Television ratings are determined by male viewers.
B. Rich viewers contribute most to television companies.
C. Sports are gaining importance in advertising on television.
D. Commercial advertisers are the major sponsors of sport events.

根据短文内容，从其后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。其中有两项为多余选项。
How the Elderly Are Treated Around the World
How cultures view and treat their elderly is closely linked to their most prized values and qualities. 36
In the US and UK, Protestantism (新教) is at play. Western cultures tend to be youth-centric, stressing qualities like independence. 37 . It ties a person’s value to his or her ability to work – something that becomes weaker in old age. As their health becomes worse, the elderly in these cultures often move to old people’s homes and nursing homes.
In France, parents are protected by law. It is difficult to imagine an Elderly Rights Law being a focus in the laws of many Western cultures. France did, however, pass a similar law in 2004. 38 . One was a group of official statistics showing France had the highest rate of pensioner suicides in Europe, and the other was the aftermath of a heat wave that killed 15,000 people, most of whom were elderly and had been dead for weeks before they were found.
39 . Native American cultures traditionally accept death as a fact of life. In many Native American areas, elders are respected for their wisdom and life experiences. Within Native American families, it’s common for the elders to be expected to pass down their learning to younger members of the family.
The way to care for Chinese elders is changing. Chinese families traditionally view respect for one’s elders as the highest virtue, according to the Confucian tradition. Adult children are generally expected to care for their parents in their old age. 40 . Nursing homes are beginning to become a more socially acceptable option for elderly care.
A. However, this tradition is beginning to break down due to rising lifetime and an aging population.
B. In the African-American area, death is seen as an opportunity to celebrate life.
C. Here’s what we can learn from other cultures about treating the elderly.
D. But China faces the unique problem of tending to an increasingly elderly population.
E. Native American elders pass down their knowledge.
F. It was only passed following two disturbing events, though.
G. This relates back to the Protestant work rules.

If you’ve always felt that you look 61 (attractive) in videos than you do in photographs, you’re not alone. A recent study 62 (do) by researchers at UC Davis and Harvard has found this to be true. 63 turns out that looking attractive in photos isn’t easy due to what the researchers are calling the “frozen face effect.”
In the study，university 64 (volunteer) were asked to watch 20 videos of various faces，after 65 they were given 20 stills pulled from the videos they had just watched. When they were then asked to rank the imagery based
66 attractiveness，the videos consistently ranked higher than the corresponding stills.The researchers even 67 (try) giving the subjects a series of photos shown as a group，but regardless，the video ranked higher— 68 (apparent) we humans like moving faces.
Maybe a portrait (人像) photographer’s most prized skill has to do with bringing out 69 best in people or photoshop; but in reality it may just be the ability
70 (overcome) the “frozen face effect.”

Recently campus safety has become public concern since a series of violent attacks happened, which causes serious damage. It makes us aware of the fact that safety should always come firstly in our daily life. In this case, we should take effective measure which can solve this problem. Firstly, we students should realize we must follow our school or traffic rules, and pay attention to food safety. Many incidents happen just because of we are too careless. Secondly, you should take training of security so that we can keep calm if faced with conflicts. Thirdly, our government and schools should provide surroundings that our students can be buried in studying.

Jeff Bezos defined online shopping and rewrote the rules of commerce.Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web server and browser（浏览器）in 1990.In 1994, Jeff Bezos read an article about how the World Wide Web was growing by 2,300 percent a year.He knew he had to tap into such a great potential for commerce. On July 6, 1995, Bezos launched Amazon.com, which operated out of the garage of his two bedroom home in suburban Seattle, Washington. With almost no publicity, sales took off immediately.

Jack Ma（China）
As a child, Jack Ma was bad at maths but fascinated by English. He travelled to the United States in 1995 as a translator to help a Chinese firm recover payment. The attempt failed. But a friend in Seattle showed Ma the Internet, and an idea began brewing.

An old lady was walking with her basket down the middle of a street in Petrograd to the great confusion of the traffic and with no small danger to herself. It was pointed out to her that the pavement was the place for pedestrians, but she replied:“I’m going to walk where I like. We’ve got liberty now.” It did not occur to the dear old lady that if liberty entitled（授权）the pedestrian to walk down the middle of the road, then the end of such liberty would be universal chaos. Everybody would be getting in everybody else’s way and nobody would get anywhere. Individual liberty would have become social chaos.
There is a danger of the world getting liberty-drunk in these days like the old lady, and it is just as well to remind ourselves of what the rule of the road means. It means that in order that the liberties of all may be preserved, the liberties of everybody must be limited. When the policeman steps into the middle of the road and puts out his hand, he is the symbol not of tyranny（暴政）, but of liberty.
Liberty is not a personal affair only,but a social contract（契约）. In matters which do not touch anybody else’s liberty, of course, I may be as free as 1 like. If I go down the street dressed strangely, who shall say me no? We have a whole kingdom in which we rule alone and can do what we choose. But directly we step out of that kingdom, our personal liberty of action becomes qualified by other people’s liberty.
We all tend to forget this.A reasonable consideration for the rights or feelings of others is the base of social conduct.
24.What does the first paragraph serve as?
A. A background. B. An introduction.
C. A comment. D. An explanation.
25.Which is an example of getting liberty-drunk?
A. Park anywhere you like. B. Walk along the pavement.
C. Wear whatever you like. D. Make loud noises in the wild.
26.What might the author have stated his “rule of the road” (Paragraph 2) as?
A. Follow the orders of policemen. B. Do what you like in private.
C. Never walk in the middle of the road.
D. Do not behave inconsiderately in public.
27.What does the underlined word “qualified” (Paragraph 3) mean?
A. Limited. B. Ruined. C. Improved. D. Educated.

The traditional tent cities at festivals such as Glastonbury may never be the same again. In a victory of green business that is certain to appeal to environmentally-aware music-lovers, a design student is to receive financial support to produce eco-friendly tents made of cardboard that can be recycled after the bands and the crowds have gone home.
Major festivals such as Glastonbury throw away some 10,000 abandoned tents at the end of events each year. For his final year project at the University of the West of England, James Dunlop came up with a material that can be recycled. And to cope with the British summer, the cardboard has been made waterproof.
Taking inspiration from a Japanese architect, who has used cardboard to make big buildings including churches, Mr. Dunlop used cardboard material for his tents, which he called Myhabs.
The design won an award at the annual New Designers Exhibition after Mr. Dunlop graduated from his product design degree and he decided to try to turn it into a business.
To raise money for the idea, he toured the City’s private companies which fund new businesses and found a supporter in the finance group Mint. He introduced his idea to four of Mint’s directors and won their support. Mint has committed around ￡500,000 to MyHab and taken a share of 30 per cent in Mr. Dunlop’s business. The first Myhabs should be tested at festivals this summer, before being marketed fully next year.
Mr. Dunlop said that the design, which accommodates two people, could have other uses, such as for disaster relief and housing for the London Olympics.
For music events, the cardboard houses will be ordered online and put up at the sites by the Myhab team before the festival-goers arrive and removed by the company afterwards. They can be personalized and the company will offer reductions on the expense if people agree to sell exterior(外部的) advertising space.
The biggest festivals attract tens of thousands of participants, with Glastonhury having some 150,000 each year. Altogether there are around 100 annual music festivals where people camp in the UK. The events are becoming increasingly environmentally conscious.
28．“Eco-friendly tents” in paragraph 1 refer to tents .
A. economically desirable B. favorable to the environment
C. for holding music performances D. designed for disaster relief
29. Mr. Dunlop established his business .
A. independently with an interest-free loan from Mint
B. with the approval of the City’s administration
C. in partnership with a finance group
D. with the help of a Japanese architect
30. It is implied in the passage that .
A. the weather in the UK. is changeable in summer
B. most performances at British festivals are given in the open air
C. the cardboard tents produced by Mr. Dunlop can be user-tailored
D. cardboard tents can be easily put up and removed by users
31. The passage is mainly concerned with .
A. an attempt at developing recyclable tents
B. some efforts at making full use of cardboards
C. an unusual success of a graduation project
D. the effects of using cardboard tents on music festivals
D
Sports accounts for a growing amount of income made on the sales of commercial time by television companies. Many television companies have used sports to attract views from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers.
An attraction of sports programs for the major U.S. media company is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons — the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing. Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week. This means the television networks are able to sell advertising time at relatively high prices during what normally would be dead time for programming. Media corporations also use sports to attract commercial sponsors that might take their advertising dollars elsewhere if television stations did not report certain sports. The people in the advertising departments of major corporations realize that sports attract male viewers. They also realize that most business travelers are men and that many men make family decisions on the purchases of computers, cars and life insurance.
Golf and tennis are special cases for television programming. These sports attract few viewers, and the ratings(收视率) are unusually low. However, the audience for these sports is attractive to certain advertisers. It is made up of people from the highest income groups in the United States, including many lawyers and business managers. This is why television reporting of golf and tennis is sponsored by companies selling high-priced cars, business and personal computers, and holiday trips. This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings. Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reach high-income consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computers. With such viewers, these programs don’t need high ratings to stay on the air.
32. Why would weekend afternoons become dead time without sport programs?
A. Because there would be few viewers
B. Because the advertisers would be off work.
C. Because television programs would go slowly.
D. Because viewers would pay less for watching television.
33. In many families, men make decisions on _________.
A. holiday trips B. sports viewing
C. television shopping D. expensive purchases
34. Why are the ratings not important for golf and tennis programs?
A. their advertisers are carmakers B. their viewers are attracted by sports
C. their advertisers target at rich people.
D. their viewers can afford expensive cars
35. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Television ratings are determined by male viewers.
B. Rich viewers contribute most to television companies.
C. Sports are gaining importance in advertising on television.
D. Commercial advertisers are the major sponsors of sport events.

How the Elderly Are Treated Around the World
How cultures view and treat their elderly is closely linked to their most prized values and qualities. 36
In the US and UK, Protestantism (新教) is at play. Western cultures tend to be youth-centric, stressing qualities like independence. 37 . It ties a person’s value to his or her ability to work – something that becomes weaker in old age. As their health becomes worse, the elderly in these cultures often move to old people’s homes and nursing homes.
In France, parents are protected by law. It is difficult to imagine an Elderly Rights Law being a focus in the laws of many Western cultures. France did, however, pass a similar law in 2004. 38 . One was a group of official statistics showing France had the highest rate of pensioner suicides in Europe, and the other was the aftermath of a heat wave that killed 15,000 people, most of whom were elderly and had been dead for weeks before they were found.
39 . Native American cultures traditionally accept death as a fact of life. In many Native American areas, elders are respected for their wisdom and life experiences. Within Native American families, it’s common for the elders to be expected to pass down their learning to younger members of the family.
The way to care for Chinese elders is changing. Chinese families traditionally view respect for one’s elders as the highest virtue, according to the Confucian tradition. Adult children are generally expected to care for their parents in their old age. 40 . Nursing homes are beginning to become a more socially acceptable option for elderly care.
A. However, this tradition is beginning to break down due to rising lifetime and an aging population.
B. In the African-American area, death is seen as an opportunity to celebrate life.
C. Here’s what we can learn from other cultures about treating the elderly.
D. But China faces the unique problem of tending to an increasingly elderly population.
E. Native American elders pass down their knowledge.
F. It was only passed following two disturbing events, though.
G. This relates back to the Protestant work rules.

If you’ve always felt that you look 61 (attractive) in videos than you do in photographs, you’re not alone. A recent study 62 (do) by researchers at UC Davis and Harvard has found this to be true. 63 turns out that looking attractive in photos isn’t easy due to what the researchers are calling the “frozen face effect.”
In the study，university 64 (volunteer) were asked to watch 20 videos of various faces，after 65 they were given 20 stills pulled from the videos they had just watched. When they were then asked to rank the imagery based
66 attractiveness，the videos consistently ranked higher than the corresponding stills.The researchers even 67 (try) giving the subjects a series of photos shown as a group，but regardless，the video ranked higher— 68 (apparent) we humans like moving faces.

Recently campus safety has become public concern since a series of violent attacks happened, which causes serious damage. It makes us aware of the fact that safety should always come firstly in our daily life. In this case, we should take effective measure which can solve this problem. Firstly, we students should realize we must follow our school or traffic rules, and pay attention to food safety. Many incidents happen just because of we are too careless. Secondly, you should take training of security so that we can keep calm if faced with conflicts. Thirdly, our government and schools should provide surroundings that our students can be buried in studying.
As far as I am concerned, improve campus safety is very important that we all should try our best to make everyone on campus safe and sound.
