One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card. They give their owners automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and they make many banking services available as well. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations, whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the “cashless society” is not on the horizon---it’s already here.
While computer offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how far they are moving. Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customer for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself.
Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and electric utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.
1. From the last sentence of the first paragraph we learn that ___________.
A. in the future all the Americans will use credit cads
B. credit cards are mainly used in the United States today
C. nowadays many Americans do not pay in cash
D. it is now more convenient to use credit cards than before
2. If computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, what will businessmen do?
A. They will fire some employees and raise the work efficiency.
B. They will arrange for different employees to do different jobs according to their abilities and performance.
C. They will assign more work for the employees to do.
D. They will allow the personnel to do whatever work they want to do.
3. What does the underlined phrase “ring up sales” in paragraph two mean?
A. make an order of goods.
B. record sales on a cash register.
C. call the sales manager.

We can't tell a contestant is winning because he is really talented or because there is no comparison
Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position? There's a reason for saying this. In 2012, the reality talent show, the Voice of China, on the Zhejiang Television became the most popular program in China.
The reason for its popularity was really because of its excellent quality?
The administrative department really contributed a lot in the popularity of the Voice of China. In the past, there were no other draft shows(选秀节目) ranked as high as Super Girl and Super Boy. Even though there were some draft shows which seemed to share the popularity, it never turned out true. All the other draft shows were shadowed by the ones on Hunan TV. One example was that since draft shows of Hunan TV were broadcast on Friday night, the draft shows of other stations were shifted to Saturday or Sunday. However, Hunan TV didn't get their permission for broadcasting shows in 2012.
And if this were not bad enough, SARFT did a great favor for it. SARFT issued a regulation, saying that all draft shows should be broadcast after 10:30 pm at night. Zhejiang TV declared long before the regulation that since was “no audition(海选)， no PK, no rise in rank, no voting, no champion”, its program was never a draft show. So, in 2012, all the opponents of Zhejiang TV had to broadcast their draft shows after 10:30 pm while the Voice of China was permitted to be broadcast in prime time.
If you really think about it, there's no essential difference between a draft show and the Voice of China. It also selected people from all over the country, how did they say this was different from a draft show? No PK, really? PK doesn't mean one versus one! A team versus a team is called PK too. And “no rise in rank” is just a switch of concepts because at the end of every game, some left the stage and some stayed. If there was really “no champion”, how come there was only one “good voice of China” at the final round? All these were rising in rank, in disguise(隐性).
Under such circumstances, the Voice of China even got praise. We are not saying that it is not a good show; we are saying that there's regret about the show since it had no opponent.
1.The following factors are important in making the Voice of China popular EXCEPT _______.
A. the unique quality of the voice of China
B. the policy support from SARFT and the administrative department
C. the favorable broadcasting time
D. the shortage of good opponents
2.The passage mainly tells us _______.
A. the voice of China is not a real draft show
B. the draft shows of Hunan Satellite TV still cause our attention
C. the advantag2s of the Voice of China
D. the reasons why Hunan Satellite TV is losing its leading position
3.What's the author's attitude towards the voice of China?
A. supportive B. doubtful
C. optimistic D. hopeful
4.Which is TRUE according to the passage?
A. SARFT issued a regulation, saying that all draft shows should be broadcast after 10:30 pm at night.
B. Draft shows of Hunan TV were broadcast on Sunday night.
C. In the past, there were some draft shows ranked as high as Super Girl.
D. The Voice of China is a program of Hunan Satellite TV.

阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
He is only 12 years old but Utkarsh Tripathi brings out a handwritten newspaper every week on matters like the environment. He does all this to satisfy his wish to “serve the country”. A Class 8 student of the Brij Bihari Sahai Inter College in Allahabad, Utkarsh has been bringing out the newspaper Jagriti for the last one year. And for the four-page, black-and-white newspaper, Utkarsh not only takes the role of a reporter, editor and publisher, but also gives it free of charge.
Jagriti has about 150 readers belonging to various age groups in Allahabad, some 200 km from the state capital Lucknow. “Children make up major Jagriti readers ... my school friends, my seniors in school, teachers and also my neighbours,” he said.
According to Utkarsh’s father Hari Prasad, who runs a coaching institute, his son has a gift for writing and wants to serve the country in some way.
“More than two years ago, he began to read articles in Hindi Daily. One day he said that he wanted to start serving society from his school life itself. I then suggested why not work like a journalist and make people know their rights,” he added. Utkarsh took the suggestion seriously and came up with Jagriti. “I try to cover social issues about environment, women foeticide and others in the editorial section, and also information about public welfare plans and important government policies for the betterment of the poor or children.” Utkarsh said.
Jagriti also has successful stories of scientists, political leaders and other outstanding people.But how does he get time from his studies to bring out a weekly newspaper? “I believe if anyone is passionate about something, he or she can take out some time to realize his dream.” Utkarsh replied.
Utkarsh’s efforts are much appreciated by people in Allahabad. Nutan Devi, a local journalist, said, “For me it’s real journalism …It has renewed the objective (宗旨) of journalism that seems to have now got lost somewhere.”
1. According to the text, Utkarsh Tripathi _____.
A. made the first newspaper about two years ago
B. is learning journalism at a college in Allahabad
C. wants to contribute to society
D. lives in Allahabad, the state capital
2. Who are most likely to be interested in Jagriti?
A. Adults, especially the elderly.
B. Local journalists.
C. Children, especially Utkarsh’s schoolmates.
D. Women around Utkarsh.
3. What is the role of the last paragraph?
A. To prove Utkarsh does a good job.
B. To tell us what true journalism is.
C. To encourage us to follow Utkarsh’s example.
D. To show the different opinions on what Utkarsh does.
