5．Economists usually study markets．Now，two Americans have won the Nobel Prize in economics in 2009 for not studying markets．They shared almost one and a half million dollars for their analysis of economic governance．This is the study of how economic activity is governed within companies，communities and other groups．
 The winners are Elinor Ostrom of Indiana University in Bloomington and Oliver Williamson of the University of California，Berkeley．The prize in economic sciences has gone to sixty-three men since it was first awarded forty years ago．Elinor Ostrom is the first woman．And，like other winners over the years，her training is not limited to economics．She is a professor of political science and of public and environmental affairs．
 Today，economic theory suggests that good resource management requires ownership，either private or public．If not，as the thinking goes，then self-interest will lead to overuse and destruction of shared resources．Garrett Hardin described this idea in 1986 as"the tragedy of the commons"．
 Elinor Ostrom showed how local decision making can reduce the tragedy．Her research has deepened understanding of how people balance their needs with those of others who depend on the same resources．She studied communities，like fanners in Southern California who depended on a common water supply．She documented how people who use resources often develop ways to share them．One example is forest management．
 Oliver WUliamson has studied big companies and found that they often are better than markets at doing complex jobs．Under his theory，businesses act as structures for conflict resolution （解決） For example，companies that own their suppliers can avoid long-term contracts and quarrel over prices．This can make production more efficient and make better use of limited resources．But businesses can also overuse their power．Professor Williamson says the best way to deal with this is not by limiting the size of companies，but through industry regulation．
 The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said economists need to do more than study markets and prices．The Nobel judges urged more research like the kind they recognized with this year's award．
68．The two people．who won the Nobel Prize in economics in 2009．D
 A．have studied markets for a long time
 B．got a prize of about 1.5 million dollars each
 C．a(chǎn)re famous for studying how economic activity is monitored
 D．a(chǎn)re well-known for their economic governance in groups
69．Which of the following may Elinor Ostrom agree with？D
 A．Excellent resource management needs both private and public ownership．
 B．Shared resources will be likely to lead to self-interest．
 C．Garrett Hardin's opinion of"the tragedy of the commons"．
 D．Local decision is good for people to share resources．
70．In Oliver Williamsion's opinion，big companies．C
 A．can balance people's needs
 B．will lead to overuse of shared resources
 C．will make better use of resources
 D．will make price higher
71．It can be inferred frim the text that．A
 A．not all economic Nobel Prize receivers are good at studying prices
 B．doing complex jobs is a difficult problem for big companies
 C．in the author's opinion，Garrett Hardin's theory is out of date completely
 D．Nobel judges think more research should be done to prove Oliver Williamsin's theory．

3．High-quality customer service is told by many，but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done．
Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of retail （零售） store，but instead will alarm their friends，relatives，co-workers，strangers and anyone who will listen．Store managers are often the last to hear complaints，and often find out only when their regular customers decide to frequent their competitors，according to a study jointly conducted by Verde group and Wharton school．"Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers．"Said Paula Courtney，president of the Verde group．"The store loses the customer，but the shopper must also find a replacement．"
On average，every unhappy customer will complain to at least four others，and will no longer visit the specific store．For every dissatisfied customer，a store will lose up to three more due to negative reviews．The resulting"snowball effect"can be disastrous to retailers．
According to the research，shoppers who purchased clothing encountered the most problems．Ranked second and third were grocery and electronics customers．The most common complaints include filled parking lots，messy and overloaded shelves，sold-out items，long check-out lines，and rude salespeople．
During peak shopping hours，some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants．Some hired flag wavers to direct customers to empty parking spaces．This guidance got rid of the need for customers to circle the parking lot endlessly，and avoided confrontation between those eyeing the same parking space．
Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store layouts，pre-stocking sales items，hiring speedy and experienced cashiers，and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions．Most importantly，salespeople should be diplomatic and polite with angry customers．
"Retailers who're responsive and friendly are more likely to smooth over problems than those who aren't so friendly．"Said Professor Stephen Hoch．"Maybe something as simple as a greeter at the store entrance would help．"
Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer，instead of complaining to the rest of the world．Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong．

32．Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints？C
A．Customers have no easy access to store managers．
B．Few customers believe the service will be improved．
C．Customers would rather relate their unhappy experiences to others．
D．Most customers won't bother to complain about unhappy experiences．
33．Shop owners often hire moonlighting police as parking attendants so that shoppersA．
A．won't have trouble parking their cars
B．won't have any worries about security
C．can find their cars easily after shopping
D．can stay longer looking around in the store
34．What contributes most to smoothing over problems with customers？B
A．Design of the store layout．
B．Manners of the salespeople．
C．Hiring of efficient employees．
D．Huge supply of goods for sale．
35．To achieve better shopping experiences，customers are advised toA．
A．voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directly
B．put pressure on stores to improve their service
C．shop around and make comparisons between stores
D．settle their disagreement with stores in a diplomatic way．

20．The bed should be reserved as a place for sleep，but people tend to read an iPad a lot in bed before they go to sleep．
Charles Czeisler，a professor at Harvard Medical School，and his colleagues got a small group of people for an experiment．For five days in a row，the people read either a paper book or an iPad for four hours before sleep．Their sleep patterns were monitored all night．Before and after each trial period，the people took hourly blood tests to paint a day-long picture of just how much melatonin（褪黑激素）was in their blood at any given time．
When subjects read on the iPad as compared to the paper books，they reported feeling less sleepy at night and less active the following morning．People also took longer to fall asleep on the iPad nights，and the blood tests showed that their melatonin secretion（分泌）was delayed by an hour and a half．
The researchers conclude in today's journal article that gives the rise of e-readers and the increasingly widespread use of e-things among children and adolescents，more research into the"long-term consequences of these devices on health and safety is urgently needed．"Czeisler and colleagues go on，in the research paper，to note"Reading an iPad in bed may increase cancer risk．"
However，software has been developed that can reduce some of the blue light from the screens of phones and computers according to time of day，and there are also glasses that are made to filter（過濾）short wavelengths．While they seem like a logical solution for the nighttime tech users，it needs more research．
32．In Charles Czeisler's experiment，all the subjects were asked toB．
A．sit in a row and receive the strict tests
B．have their sleep patterns observed all night
C．read a paper book and an iPad at the same time
D．have their blood tested per hour during the trial
33．The third paragraph tells us the iPad readers were likely toD．
E．feel less sleepy and tired in the day
F．fall asleep more easily after reading
G．have a lot more melatonin secretion
H．become less energetic the next morning
34．The special software recently developed canC．
I．remove the blue light from your devices completely
J．help prevent eyes being harmed by short wavelength
K．weaken the harm done by doing nighttime e-reading
L．be used in all the e-things widely and safely
35．What's this passage mainly about？A
M．No e-reading in bed before sleep                 
B．New software for night e-readers
C．Wrong behaviors before bedtime                 
D．No games on iPad in bed．

5．How would you like to brush a crocodile's teeth？Or give a shark a bath？Cats are well-known for the way they keep themselves clean by licking（舔），but other animals have their own ways to stay clean as well．And tidiness can be important for their survival．Even cockroaches（蟑螂）have to keep their feelers clean to help them into food．
    Many animals in the wild，such as deer，wolves and bears，have an automatic cleaning system．Insects like to attach themselves to animals to feed on the skin or blood．These parasites（寄生蟲） can be unhealthy．But their"host"animals are constantly dropping skin and fur by a natural process．They also like to rub up against trees or rocks to comfort themselves，and this removes additional skin and fur．Along with old fur goes the dirt and parasites living in the fur．While these animals may sometimes take a bath when they enter or cross a river or lake，they don't need the water to stay clean．They don't get sweaty，because they don't have sweat glands（汗腺）all over their bodies the way people do．Growing new skin and fur is enough to keep them clean．
    Some animals and birds use dust to get clean．Chinchillas，a kind of small animal that lives in
the mountains of South America，have a very fine fur．（They are raised for their fur，in fact．）If they took water baths，they might get too cold．So，instead，they roll around in fine dust，raising
quite a cloud as they"bathe"．The dust helps to keep their fur and skin dry．This protects them
from bacteria and parasites that enjoy warm and wet places．And the fine dust doesn't stick in their
fur for long．It falls off or blows away．
    As for lions and tigers．their rough tongues act like combs and can remove dirt and loose fur．
Why is it important for them to stay clean and smooth？It helps them stay cool in very hot summer or feel warm in cold winter．
55．What's the main idea of this passage？A
  A．For animals，cleanliness is a survival skill．
    B．Animals enjoy living in a clean environment．
    C．Unlike people，animals hate staying in water．
    D．Animals fight against parasites in different ways．
56．According to the passage，such animals as deer，wolves and bears clean themselves byB   
    A．living with parasites
    B．replacing their skin and fur naturally
    C．climbing trees or rocks
    D．having a bath in a river or lake
57．It can be inferred from the passage that the way some animals stay cleanA    A．is decided by their physical conditions
    B．is better than the way people do
    C．keeps them away from parasites all the time
    D．helps them survive any danger in the wild．
