【題目】Alibaba started taking the lead in China, simply enough, by connecting big Chinese manufacturers(制造商)with big buyers across the world. Its business-to-business site, Alibaba.com allowed business to buy almost everything. Alibaba’s advantage wasn’t hard to identify: size. Alibaba is just big, even by Chinese standards. Its marketplaces attract 231 million active buyers, 8 million sellers, 11.3 billion orders a year—and Alibaba is just the middleman. It encourages people to use its markets—not charging small sellers a percentage of the sale.
If you want a quick look into the influence of Alibaba on daily Chinese life, take my experience. I moved to Beijing almost a year ago and quickly got tired of visiting small stores across the crowded, polluted city of 20 million people in search of new electronics, bathroom furnishings, and anything else my wife wanted. “You’re looking for what exactly? Why not try it? ” my Chinese teacher asked me one day. With that, my wonderful new relationship with Alibaba began.
Alibaba’s original business-to-business model now is secondary to consumer buying. Chinese retail(零售)buying makes up 80% of Alibaba’s profit, and leading that group is Taobao, with 800 million items for sale and the most unbelievable selection of things you’ll ever find. TMall.com is Alibaba’s other big site, where you can find brand name goods from Nike and Unilever near the lowest prices.
What I have a hard time explaining to friends and family back in the U.S. is how China has gone beyond traditional shopping—big-box retailers especially —in favor of online purchases on Taobao and a few other sites. In smaller towns than Beijing, where big retailers have not yet traveled, shopping online is shopping, and shopping is Taobao.
I have a list of some of my recent purchases on Taobao for a sense of how extensive the marketplace is. Almost everything arrived a day or two after ordering with free shipping. I’m not even a big buyer, because I need friends to help me search the Chinese-language site. When I was searching my purchase history on my Chinese teacher’s iPad, which helps me buy goods, I looked through with great difficulty about 10 of her purchases for every one of mine.
【1】Alibaba’s advantage mainly lies in ___________.
A. its big size
B. its business-to-business service

【3】【改編】We can infer from the passage____
A. The author’s Chinese teacher is also an online purchase lover.
B. Taobao has no apparent advantage compared with other similar online sites.
C. Alibaba’s business-to-business service earns much more money than retail now.
D. TMall.com provides more profit than Taobao.
【4】【改編】The passage mainly talks about_____
A.Alibaba has a great influence on people’s daily purchase in China.

Learning to save money when you’re young is an important lesson.All good lessons and habits begin early,and saving is a skill that everyone needs.Many people—adults included—do not have a good sense of saving for the long run.I have been lucky to learn this lesson early because I have had a grasscutting business since I was 10 years old.Of the money I make I spend about 10 percent and save the other 90.
Making_sure_you_save_and_don’t_spend_too_much_is_a_good_way_to_build_up_wealth.I have put my earnings in a bank.Many teens I know spend all the money they earn so it never has a chance to grow.Young people should realize that their teenage years are a great time to begin saving.
At high school many parents pay for almost everything,so your expenses can be small.If you have a job,you should have fun with some of the money.But you should also save some so that it will grow.Then you can begin planning for your future.When you spend money,you not only lose that money,but also lose the interest you could have earned by saving it.
After high school,college is expensive and then“real” life begins,with expenses such as food and rent.If you can hold onto a good percentage of the money you earn as a teen,going to college and buying a house will be much easier.________ ,the more time the money has to grow.If you are in your thirties without any savings,you will always have to struggle.The earlier you begin saving,the easier it is to create a nest egg.
Later in life it can be hard to start saving because general costs of living are more expensive and you may only have enough to pay your bills.If you want to buy a house and have a family,you need money to start with,which comes from saving.
Many say money cannot make you happy,and this is true.But money can help you to lead a secure life.
Saving early will mean you will have to work for fewer years when you are older.It will also allow you to spend time doing the things that you want to do.
In addition to this,it will mean you can live the way you want to without worrying.
【1】 What’s the best title of the passage? (no more than 5 words)

【題目】閱讀理解
Lack of water creates a survival problem for all desert animals.And animals can live only within a relatively narrow temperature range.For four or five months of the year,the daily temperatures in the desert may actually go beyond this range.So survival for desert animals is very difficult.
Fortunately,most desert animals have evolved (進化) to solve the heat and water problems the desert environment creates.
Take Phainopepla, a slim black bird for example. It breeds during the relatively cool spring,then leave the desert for cooler areas.Many birds are active only at dawn and within a few hours of sunset.Some birds,such as the kingbird,continue activity throughout the day,but always fly or sit in the shade.
A few desert animals,such as the Roundtailed Ground Squirrel,sleep away the hottest part of the summer.They also hibernate (冬眠) in winter to avoid the cold season.Some desert animals such as Desert Toads,stay deep under the ground until the summer rains fill ponds. They then come out from under the ground,breed,lay eggs and supply themselves with food and water for another long period.Some smaller desert animals make a hole below the surface of the soil or sand to escape the high temperatures at the desert surface.
Certain desert lizards (蜥蝎) are active during the hottest seasons,and move extremely rapidly over hot surfaces,stopping in cooler “islands” of shade.Even their legs may be longer so they absorb less surface heat while running.
【1】How many survival problems are mentioned for desert animals in Paragraph 1 ?
A.One.
B.Two.
C.Three.
D.Four.
【2】When
A.In early afternoon.
B.Around midday.
C.In early morning.
D.In late morning.
【3】The Roundtailed Ground Squirrel escapes the extreme temperatures by________.
A.sitting in the shade
B.lying in a hole
C.stopping its activity
D.moving to cool habitats
【4】According to the passage,which of the following are the most active desert animals?
A.Lizards.
B.Desert Toads.
C.Phainopepla.
D.Roundtailed Ground Squirrel.
【5】What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Survival of Desert Animals.
B.Evolution of Desert Animals.
C.Dangers of Desert Animals.
D.Hibernation of Desert Animals.
