20.Traditional businessmen feel worried that growing e-commerce will reduce their share of the market.
According to a survey,90% of some people's purchases are made on the computer.As they find that by being able to go online and choose the things that they need to choose,and have them delivered right to their doorsteps,they could no longer be bothered with driving,the crowds,the noise of that,and they usually get a better selection.
Cornell University Marketing Professor,McLaughlin says traditional stores can keep their customers by offering goods like clothing,which customers may want to see and try on before purchasing,as well as items that are difficult to ship.He says some traditional stores are also pleasing customers with services that set up or repair computers and electronics.
Traditional stores also offer a social experience that some shoppers enjoy.There is still a lot of emotion in the buying decision that takes place.Oftentimes,you need that last sense of"this is exactly what I want"before you part with money.And you can't always get that online.It's a rather cold process.
Traditional stores can also deliver goods more quickly than online retailers(零售商).And smart businessmen are using stores to guide customers to websites and using their websites to encourage customers to visit their stores.
As more and more people have Internet access and smart phones,online commerce is likely to continue its growth here in the United States and in other countries

A.consumers can get a better selection by shopping online
B.more and more people purchase things on the computer
C.people like to have their goods delivered to their house
D.growing online sales will cut their share of the market

A.providing customers with extra services
B.inviting customers to try on clothing
C.delivering goods to each doorstep
D.repairing computers and electronics

A.online shoppers tend to be cold to each other
B.the process of shopping online is full of emotion
C.some shoppers like the social climate in traditional stores
D.making buying decisions in traditional shops is difficult
67.What is the author's attitude towards the future online commerce?B.
A.Doubtful          B.Optimistic        C.Sympathetic        D.Concerned.

分析 本文為一篇新聞報道.如今,越來越來越流行的網(wǎng)購沖擊著傳統(tǒng)商業(yè),但是傳統(tǒng)商業(yè)也有的獨一無二的特點,比如提供額外的服務(wù),可以先試后買等.

解答 64.D.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第一段"Traditional businessmen feel worried that growing e-commerce will reduce their share of the market"可知,傳統(tǒng)的商人感到擔(dān)心,是因為越來越多的電子商務(wù)可能將減少他們的市場份額.故選D.
65.A.細節(jié)理解題.根矩文章"some traditional stores are also pleasing customers with services that set up or repair computers and electronics."可知,一些傳統(tǒng)的商店為了取悅顧客也為顧客提供一些額外的服務(wù),比如修復(fù)電腦和電子產(chǎn)品等.故選A.
66.C.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章"Traditional stores also offer a social experience that some shoppers enjoy."可知,傳統(tǒng)的商店會為顧客提供一些購物體驗的樂趣,可見有些顧客還是挺喜歡這種氛圍的.故選C.
67.B.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章最后一段"online commerce is likely to continue its growth here in the United States and in other countries"可知,作者認為在線商務(wù)很可能會繼續(xù)在美國和其他國家增長,可見作者對這種發(fā)展還是采取挺積極的態(tài)度.故選B.

點評 本文為新聞報道類閱讀.新聞報道類在英語閱讀理解中是一種特點十分鮮明的題材.因為文章往往呈現(xiàn)出"倒金字塔"的特征,此類題的英語閱讀理解技巧是重點看導(dǎo)語.導(dǎo)語位于新聞報道的首段,高度概括新聞事實,通過它點出新聞的主題,其次尋找關(guān)鍵詞,理解題意,做出解答.

15.BEIJING--The Chinese economy has shown positive signs of stabilizing (穩(wěn)定),but it's hard to judge what it will be next year,governor of China's central bank said Thursday.
Zhou Xiaochuan,governor of the People's Bank of China,made the remarks on a discussion with delegates from the financial field to the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China,which opened here Thursday morning.
China's economic momentum (沖力)will depend on not only domestic conditions,but also changes brought by the global financial crisis,said Zhou,who is also a CPC delegate to the national congress.
"It has become increasingly clear that the Chinese economy is now moving towards a better direction,"he said.
Due to the impact of the debt crisis in Europe,China's economy began slowing this year.The Chinese economy expanded only 7.4 percent year-on-year in the third quarter of 2012,marking a downturn for seven straight quarters,the National Bureau of Statistics said.
As the government adopted a series of fiscal and monetary (財政和貨幣的) measures and speeded up the approvals of investment projects to spur the slowing economy,the domestic economy has stabilized since September with better indicators,Zhou said.
He said it's hard to judge how the global financial crisis will continue to affect the Chinese economy,because the spreading of the European debt crisis and the so-called"fiscal cliff",problem in the United States have increased uncertainties of the world economy.
"We need to monitor the effect on our economy of the monetary easing policies launched recently by the United States and the European Union,"he said.
China is likely to maintain the policy continuity"to some extent"in 2013,but will leave"enough room"to make the policy targeted and flexible.

43.Wliat is the attitude of Zhou Xiaochuan towards the Chinese economy at present?C
A.Doubtful.
B.Negative.
C.Optimistic.
D.Unknown.
44.The underlined word"spur"in the sixth paragraph probably meansD
A.cause
B.expand
C.decrease
D.encourage
45.What caused China's economy slowing in 2012?B
A.Global financial crisis.
B.Debt crisis,in Europe,
C."Fiscal cliff'problem in the US.
D.The Chinese economy policy.
46.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A
A.The People's Bank of China launched the economy statistics of China.
B.The Chinese economy policy will have a chance of flexibility in 2013.
C.The world economy is uncertain.
D.The global financial crisis has a great effect on Chinese economy.

12.Situated at the gate to the Tianjin Children's Welfare Institute,a government-run orphanage,the baby hatch---also known as a babies'safety island---allows desperate parents to leave unwanted newborns,press an alarm button,and depart anonymously.After a delay of about five minutes,someone from the institute will arrive to get the child.
But facilities(設(shè)施) such as this have been under fire recently.While some people have approved of the idea,saying it protects the lives of unwanted children; critics argue that it encourages the immoral to abandon such babies,which is illegal in China.
It's difficult to obtain statistics about the number of abandoned children in China,but the 2010 China Child Welfare Policy Report,released by the China Philanthropy Research Institute,estimated that 100,000 babies are abandoned every year,most of them with disabilities and illnesses.In July,2013,when the Ministry of Civil Affairs launched a pilot project to set up baby hatches across China,Tianjin was one of the first cities to launch a facility and there were 24 baby hatches in 10 provinces,municipalities and autonomous regions(地區(qū)).A further 18 regions are preparing to open facilities by the end of this year,according to the China Center for Children's Welfare and Adoption.
"The baby hatch guards an unwanted baby from harm and increases its chances of survival,"said Xu Shuming,who is in charge of the reception of unwanted children and their following adoption at the Tianjin Children's Welfare Institute,is also in favor of the project."Before the baby hatch came into use,the babies we took in were usually brought by the police.They had been found at bus stations,public rest rooms,or parks; it could be anywhere.One baby we received last year was almost frozen to death,"she said."For our part,we hope parents will leave more information with their unwanted babies,such as medical records so that we can understand the real situation,avoid repeated medical checkups,and save time,"Xu said.
36.A baby hatch is a place whereB.
A.parents can leave their baby for some time               
B.unwanted newborns can be left.
C.unhealthy babies can be treated free of charge
D.the chances of babies'survival can be increased
37.The underlined phrase"under fire"in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning toB.
A.ignored       B.a(chǎn)ttacked           C.supported     D.discussed
38.Why some people are against the baby hatch?A
A.Because it encourages parents to abandon the unwanted babies.
B.Because it is illegal to abandon a baby in China.
C.Because it wastes an amount of money.
D.Because it protects unwanted babies.
39.According to passage,we knowC
A.All the people approve of the baby hatch.
B.It's easy to figure out exactly the number of abandoned children in China
C.Most of the unwanted babies are in poor condition
D.There will be 42 baby hatches in China at the end of this year
40.We can infer from the passageD.
A.Parents usually leave little information in case that they are found out.
B.Less and less unwanted babies are abandoned in China
C.The police used to take charge of attending abandoned babies
D.The information left by parents may be of great help to protect unwanted babies.

9.The insanely popular song from South Korean recording artist PSY has just become the most watched video on YouTube ever,gaining more than 808 million views on the popular media site.
The record was previously held by another pop heavyweight,Justin Bieber,whose song"Baby"had a little more than 804 million views at press time.PSY made the announcement early today.
Since its release,the song has outshone such other popular videos as Jennifer Lopez's"On the Floor."and Eminem's"Love the Way You Lie".

Despite its massive popularity,the video shows no signs of slowing down,and it even has a shot at becoming the first video to get more than one billion views.
If it maintains its current rate of around six million new views per day,"Gangnam Style"would be in line to break that record by the end of the year.
It has found its way to the tops of music charts in more than 30 countries,including the United Kingdom,Germany,F(xiàn)rance,Spain and Canada,while providing material for thousands of parody videos.
It became a staple in the 2012 presidential elections with the now ramous"Mitt Romney Style"video and was even used by the North Korean government in propaganda(宣傳)films promoting their supreme leader.Meanwhile,such influential figures as President Obama,UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt have all made mention of the hit song.
