    Making group purchases of famous local products and cosmetics (化妆品) with co-workers has become a common habit for the nine-to-fivers. But if your impression of group buys is still a piece of paper being passed around the office, everyone writes their details down, or endless phone calls or faxes to the supplier, then I’m sorry to say you’re behind the times. The popular way to make such purchases today is to get on line, form a special “group” and shop together. Not only can you save money by getting the best discounts, but it’s also a great way to meet new people.
    “You could cut off my clicking finger and I’d still keep shopping this way!” so goes a common comment left by customers of China’s famous e-commerce website “Taobao”. Some even refer to group purchasing as a “path of no return”, saying that “Once you’ve tried it, you’ll get hooked!”
    The origins of this new trend can be found in China’s well-known online consumers’ BBS, 55BBS, and the shopping boards. Since most BBS users are “white-collared workers and students who live in concentrated areas, buying clothes, food, and so on as a group saves on delivery costs as well as – if they meet the seller’s criteria (标准) – earn gifts, discounts, and frequent shopper points.
    Users of this online group shopping boards purchase a lot of different items, from Japanese and Korean style clothes and Ugg boots, through fake eyelashes (假睫毛), stockings, food seasonings (调味品), and kitchen knives, to cosmetic masks and online college courses. All kinds of things have people coming together in groups to buy them, and the pickups are often organized on college campuses or office buildings.
    Internet observer Liu Chenxi points the purchasing behavior that these online groups’ power creates a “team” effect. Unlike e-commerce sites driven by individuals’ purchases, sites that create this team effect have users that come together to achieve a common goal. The Internet has made this joining of forces to form group buying power possible, and it continues to snowball all around us.
    68. The passage mainly deals with _________.
    A. group purchases with co-workers    
    B. online group purchases
    C. how to do shopping online             
    D. buying famous local products and cosmetics
    69. What does the word “hooked” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
    A. excited               B. lost                   C. addicted           D. bored
    70. According to the text, this kind of purchase has some benefits EXCEPT________.
    A. earning gifts                                         B. making new friends
    C. saving money                                D. saving time
    71. What can we infer from the text?。
    A. Online group shopping will become more and more popular.
    B. The goods are usually delivered to each doorstep.
    C. Doing shopping online is not reliable.
    D. People prefer to do group purchases with their co-workers.

    My father was in the navy, which meant that my mother was married to both my father and the sea. As was often the case, we had to pack our belongings into boxes and  41  those we had grown to love. We would arrive at our new home and find ourselves once again  42  at the pier（码头）waving good-bye to my father as his  43  pulled him away from us. My mother would turn my brother and I around before the ship was out of  44  , wipe our tears, and take us back home to start the process of  45  in the new environment again.
    Throughout the years of changing  46  , schools and friends, there remained one constant in my childhood—my mother. For both my   47  and I, she was the cook, maid and teacher. She played these roles while  48  some type of part-time job. Leaving a promising career is just one of the  49  which my mother made for my family as we moved around the world with our father every three years or so.  50  she had to deal with only a small budget, my mother  51  managed to make each house to be the very home that is safe and  52  .
    This probably sounds like a depressing way to live,  53  with two small children: “single” parenthood, short-term friendships, and the inability to  54  a career or establish a home. But it was not for my mother. She turned this  55  into adventure for us all! Each relocation was a chance to  56  another part of the world. My mother greeted each new culture, climate and neighborhood. Each new house was a  57  to rearrange furniture, make curtains and  58 pictures. Every part-time job was an opportunity to learn something new and work with interesting people.
    No matter how difficult the life was, she was always having a  59  attitude. She always had strength in the face of struggle and change. My mother was so  60  all those years of my childhood—she was my island in a sea of change. She is my hero.

    If you want your land to keep fertile, you must try to stop soil from being carried away by water or wind. When soil is taken away by flowing water or blowing winds we call it soil erosion. Ways have been found to stop soil erosion, and this is known as soil conservation. One way of stopping soil erosion is to grow small plants such as grass. These plants are referred to a cover crops, whose roots hold the soil tightly together. The rain water can not wash away the soil. When trees and tall bushes are planted at the edges of an open field, soil erosion by strong winds can not take place. The trees and bushes, which act as a very big and firm wall, protect the open land from the winds. The way to stoop soil erosion on slopes is to build terraces on the slope of hillside and mountainside. When the slope of a hillside is cut into “step”, water carrying soil can not run straight down the terraces, which are used to slow down the speed of the flowing water containing much soil in it. In this way most of the soil in the water is left behind on the terraces, much soil in it.
    小题1:What takes place in soil erosion?
    A．Flood happens to the fertile land
    B．A large quantity of the soil loses away gradually.
    C．Terraces are built on the slope of hillside or mountainside.

    小题2:“Cover crops” in this passage means _________.?
    A. grass        B. trees and bushes     C. plants life and an area
    E.   covering plants that produce grain or vegetables
    小题3:Besides growing small plants, another method to fight against soil erosion is to ___________.
    A．build terracesB．build wallsC．plant treesD．plant tall bushes
    小题4:According to the passage, trees and tall bushes are planted around an open field ________________.
    A．because their roots hold soil tightly
    B．to stop soil from being blown away by winds.
    C．Because soil erosion causes terrible damages to crops
    D．To keep the balance of nature
    小题5:Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
    A．What Causes Soil Erosion
    B．The Importance of Erosion
    C．Rain Erosion and Wind Erosion
    D．Erosion and the Way of Tight against Erosion

    第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项
    Everyone needs friends. We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Surely, there are times when we need to be alone. We don't always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.
    No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don't get along well, which doesn't mean that they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away, then we feel very sad. We miss them much, but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would never see them again, and we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.
    There's more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people if those don't have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares, if someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.
    61. The first paragraph tells us __________.
    A. none needs friends                      B. we always need friends around us
    C. making friends is the need in people's life    D. we need to be alone

    If you are hungry, what will you do? Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? Just like stomach, even your mind will be hungry. But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover, favorite star and many such absurd things. So it silently begins to hide your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity gets its full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next?”, “Why can’t I think?”, “Why am I always given the difficult problems?” Well, this is the after-effect of using our brain for thinking of not-so-worthy things.
    Hunger of the mind can be actually satisfied through extensive reading. But why is it reading but not watching TV? Because reading has been the most educational tool used by us right from the childhood. Just like that to develop other aspects of our life, we have to turn to reading for help. You have a number of books in the world which will answer all your “how-to” questions. Once you read a book, you just don’t run your eyes through the lines, but your mind decodes (译解) it and explains it to you. The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed. Now this seed is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new ideas. The same seed, if used many times, can help you link and relate a lot of things, which you would never thought of in your wildest dreams! This is nothing but creativity. The more books you read, the wider your mind will become. Also this improves your oratorical (speech-making) skills to a large extent and also makes a significant contribution to your vocabulary. When you start speaking English or any other language fluently with your friends or other people, you never seem to run out of the right words at the right time.
    Actually, I had a problem in speaking English fluently, but as I read, I could improve significantly. So guys, do join me and give food for your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. Now what are you waiting for? Go, grab a book and let me know!
    49. What’s the best title of the passage?
    A. Hunger of the mind                           B. Stomach and Mind 
    C. Feed your Mind by reading                  D. Reading or Watching TV
    50. You don’t know your mind is in hunger because _____.
    A. you are not hungry                                   
    B. you keep it thinking of silly things 
    C. your creativity gets a full stop            
    D. you always meet with difficult problems
    51. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the advantage of reading?
    A. Reading can make your dream come true.
    B. Reading can contribute to your vocabulary.
    C. Reading can improve your spoken ability.
    D. Reading can make people creative.
    52. The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _______.
    A. comment and blame                            B. introduce and describe 
    C. explain and persuade                             D. advise and inform

    Everybody hates it，but everybody does it．A recent report said that 40％of Americans hate tipping．But why do tips exist?
    The common opinion in the past was that tips both rewarded the efforts of good service and reduced uncomfortable feelings of inequality．It is believed that the better the service is，the bigger the tip will be．
    But according to a new research from Cornell University，tips no longer serve any useful function．The paper analyzes number they got from 2，547 groups dining at 20 different restaurants．The connection between larger tips and better service was very weak．
    Tipping is better explained by culture than by the money people spend．In America，tipping is regarded as part of the accepted cost of a service．In New York restaurants，failing to tip at least 15％could well mean dissatisfaction from the customers Hairdressers can expect to get 15％一20％．and the mall who delivers your fast food should be paid$2．In Europe，tipping is less common．In many restaurants the amount of tip is decided by a standard service charge In many Asian countries，tipping has never really caught on at a11．Only a few have really taken to tipping。
    According to Michael Lynn，the Cornell papers’author，countries in which people are more social or outgoing tend to tip more．tie says，“In America，where people are expressive and eager to mix up with others，tipping is about social approval If you tip badly，people think less of you .Tipping well is a chance to show off．”
    68．This passage is mainly about        
    A．different kinds of tipping in different countries
    B．the relationship between tipping and countries
    C．the origin and present meanings of tipping
    D．the reason why American people hate tipping

    A．A Frenchman．    B．A Chinese．  C．A Japanese．    D．An American．

    A．tipping is no longer a good way to satisfy some customers themselves
    B．tipping has something to do with people’s character
