11.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.

A.group purchases with co-workers

C.how to do shopping online

70.According to the text,this kind of purchase has some benefits EXCEPTD.
A.earning gifts       B.making new friends
C.saving money        D.saving time
71.What can we infer from the text?A
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.

2.News that Microsoft made a $44.6 billion bid to buy Yahoo resulted in heated discussions made by many Internet users.Here are some responses:
Diane Burke of Weeks bury,Kentucky
I think it would definitely be an interesting combination.Everyone recognizes the names Yahoo and Microsoft,but everyone also says,"Did you Google it?"Such a catchphrase (时髦话) is going to be hard to beat.
Shaun Carney of Laurelville,Ohio
I think the merger (合并) will provide more competitions for Google.I don't think the merger will allow Microsoft to develop faster than Google,though.I believe the increased competition this merger brings will force Google to stay on top of its game by offering more fresh and original Internet tools and expanding on the tools it already offers.
Toni Suarez of Hacienda Heights,California
I view the merger as a necessary element in preventing a monopolization (垄断).Perhaps it would bring better high technology innovations to e-mail and help in researching and developing a better Internet!
Rick R.of Edgewater,Florida
It sounds like a disaster to me.If this were to happen,I would stop using my Yahoo e-mail account because I don't like the feeling of Microsoft spying upon my business.I will sign up for Google.
Antonio Glosser of Kansas City,Missouri
Right now,Yahoo offers a lot of features and tools at no cost for all different levels of Internet users.Microsoft seeks nothing but profit.Undoubtedly,they'll do nothing other than find ways to start removing Yahoo's formerly non-priced features.Microsoft's greed will ruin the great thing that Yahoo currently is.

19.Across the United States,there are several places where two independent towns grew together to become one city-but kept both their names.
WinstonSalem is one of them.It's a mid?sized city in what's called the plateau(high land),between the Atlantic Coast and the inland mountains in the state of North Carolina.The Winston part is a relatively new place,founded early this century.It's home to the nation's biggest open?air tobacco market.
The giant R.J.Reynolds Tobacco Company's headquarters is in Winston?Salem,and Winston is the name of one of Reynolds'best?known cigarette brands.Fast?growing Winston soon surrounded the much older town of Salem,so in 1913,people in the area voted to combine them into a single place.
From a historical and tourist point of view,Salem,or Old Salem,as it's called today,is the interesting and unusual part of town.
Salem was founded in the 1700s by the Moravians.They spoke German,and their community was religiously based,with single men and single women living apart in separate dormitories.The Moravians greatly valued women's work and brainpower.In fact,one of the nation's oldest boarding schools for young women-the Moravians'Salem Academy founded in 1772-is still in operation.
Over the years,Salem lost its Moravian character.That all changed,though,when a nonprofit group began to rehabilitate the historic area.These days Old Salem is what's called a living history museum,with exhibits,music,and tours of 18th-century houses,taverns and Moravian dormitory buildings just seven blocks from the tallest skyscraper in Winston-Salem.
The historic community is booming again.Just as R.J.Reynolds is taking in millions of dollars making cigarettes across town,Old Salem is generating about S|15million a year in tourism revenue and donations.

61.From the passage we can know thatA.
A.Winston-Salem is the name of a city
B.Salem is home to the tobacco market
C.the city Winston-alem has two names
D.Old Salem is the name of a tobacco brand
62.It can be inferred from Paragraph 3thatD.
A.the two cities benefited each other
B.Salem developed faster than Winston
C.R.J.Reynolds Company has moved into Salem
D.the combination meets the wishes of the people
63.The city Salem is special for itsB.
A.boarding school                          B.lifestyle and tradition
C.respect for brainpower                   D.religious belief
64.The underlined word"rehabilitate"in Paragraph 6is closest in meaning to"A".
A.reconstruct            B.evaluate         
C.enlarge                D.decorate
65.What will probably be talked about in the following part?C
A.Some other attractions in Winston-Salem.
B.How Winston makes profits from tourism.
C.Other examples of cities combined by two parts.
D.Something about the boarding school for women.

6.Nothing says love like a dozen long-stemmed roses on Valentine's Day.More than a million roses will be sold during this festival for lovers,the biggest day of the year for the nation's rose industry.It's going to remain the most popular flower because love never goes out of style.
Yes,a rose is a rose is a rose.But selling them is no longer a beautiful experience for traditional flower shops.Supermarkets now offer convenience to the busy and discount rose shops help those hopelessly in love save money.Roses only is a good example of a discount rose retailer that was transformed from a traditional shop to answer the challenge in the'90s.
Inside this store on Sixth Avenue near 40 th Street,contemporary white furniture and wall-to-wall mirrors give it an expensive look.Customers move about freely among the counters,looking eagerly at the roses in more than 50 colors from shelf to shelf.Some customers say it's the high quality of the roses that attracts them there."I spent﹩20 but the flowers looked like I paid 60 or 70 dollars,"says one customer.
Studies show more people are buying roses in ones,two and threes these days.In fact,more than half of all roses are sold in bunches of fewer than a dozen.But Roses Only's low prices encourage people to spend.Even on Valentine's Day,when the price of a dozen roses and delivery can soar as high as﹩150,12 of Roses Only's most expensive flowers sell for just﹩35.The company's key to success is to hold prices down by controlling every link in the rose chain.It grows its own roses in the sunshine of the Andes Mountains.In addition,the company also sells other items such as ballons and stuffed animals.
While discount rose retailers are witnessing their business bloom,U.S.rose growers aren't able to compete with the fierce foreign competition.More than 57% of roses sold in the USA are grown in other countries.The biggest foreign producers are Colombia and Ecuador,which accounted for almost 90% of the total imported last year.The trend has hurt domestic rose growers such as Johnson Flowers of California,considered to be this country's leading producer.
Now,instead of fighting overseas rivals,the Johnsons are trying to work with them."We have a few big fighting overseas rivals,the Johnsons are trying to work with them."We may also widen our business to include the service area and be a representative for overseas flower producers."
As a result of severe competition,those in the rose business long for the good old days,whereas ordinary people benefit from the low price.

60.What is the central theme of this text?C
A.The US rose business is going from bad to worse in spite of the efforts made.
B.The rose will remain the most popular flower as love never goes out of date.
C.The rose business is trying to meet the challenges in the market to succeed.
D.The rose industry plays an important role in American economy.
61.How does Roses Only obtain success in the discount rose retailing field?C
A.By setting up more chain stores across the country.
B.By selling roses in supermarkets.
C.By selling high quality roses at a low price.
D.By selling roses by the dozen.
62.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?(①to ⑦represent paragraphs 1to 7)A

63.After reading the passage,we learn all of the following EXCEPTB.
A.Selling roses is no longer as easy for traditional flower shops as it was.
B.Almost 90% of roses sold in US are imported from Colombia and Ecuador.
C.US rose growers are faced with intense foreign competition.
D.the Johnsons are trying to co-operate with foreign competitors instead of fighting them.

20.Chinese consumers'crazy appetite for luxury goods and  services appears unstoppable,with just 2percent of the  Chinese population responsible for one-third of the world's  luxury items.
As  China's  economic  miracle  develops,the  market  opportunities for all sorts of luxury goods and services are  increasing.Luxury consumption in China now extends ways  beyond well-known car,clothing and jewelry brands.For  example,the luxury jet market in China is the fastest-growing  in the world,even  outstripping that of the United States,with a market share of 25percent.This trend appears to continue,with 20to 30percent growth expected in China,compared with only 2to 3percent in the US.But more importantly,China's luxury jet market growth represents a major development in the private consumption of luxury items.
China's high-quality red wine market also provides evidence of the growth in private consumption of luxury goods.In 2013,China became the largest market for red wine in the world,even overtaking France,with 1.86billion bottles consumed in China last year.Over the past five years,China's red wine consumption has grown 136percent.
According to my ongoing consumer research in this area while working at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing,public consumption of such expensive global luxury brands such as Prada and Armani is easily explained by the desire to"gain face"and publicly display social climbing through material possessions.On the other hand,it is"self-reward"that lies behind consumer motivation in this area.Chinese consumers who have experienced rapid financial and economic gains appear particularly prone to the need to reward themselves for their success.But this has little to do with"gaining face"and impressing others and much more to do with the need for personal contentment.
Finally,the growth in private luxury consumption in China is set to continue in part due to the maturity of the Chinese consumer and advancement of Chinese consumer  culture generally.

28.What do you think the author would most probably be?C
A.A news reporter.
B.An accountant.
C.A professor.
D.A conductor.
29.The underlined word"outstripping"in Paragraph 2probably  means"C".
A.falling far behind of
B.going out of
C.going far ahead of
D.keeping pace with
30.What can we learn from Paragraph 2and 3?B
A.China's luxury jet market growth is only 2% to 3%.
B.France was once the largest market for red wine in the world before 2013.
C.The luxury jet market in the US shares 25% of the jet consumption in the world.
D.China's red wine consumption has increased to 1.86billion bottles since 2013.
31.What can be the best title for the passage?B
A.Future Private Luxury Consumption in China
B.Chinese Appetite for Luxury Goods and Services
C.The Potential Luxury Jet Market in China
D.The Maturity of the Chinese Consumers.

1."Plants were expected to get larger with increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere,but changes in temperature,humidity (湿度) and nutrient availability seem to have trumped the benefits of increased carbon dioxide,"said researchers from  the National University of Singapore
    45percent of the species studied now reach smaller adult sizes than they did in the past.The researchers pointed out that warmer temperatures and changing habitats,caused by climate change,are possible reasons for the shrinking of creatures.
"We do not yet know the exact mechanisms (机制) involved,or why some organisms are getting smaller while others are unaffected,"the researchers said."Until we understand more,we could be risking negative consequences that we can't yet quantify."
    The change was big in cold-blooded animals.Only two decades of warmer temperatures were enough to make creatures smaller.An increase of only 1℃caused nearly a 10percent increase in metabolism(新陈代谢).Greater use of energy resulted in tiny tortoises and little lizards.Fish are smaller now too.Though overfishing has played a part in reducing numbers,experiments show that warmer temperatures also stop fish growing.
    Warm-blooded animals weren't immune (兔疫) from the size change caused by climate change.Many birds are now smaller.Red deer are weaker.And polar bears are smaller,compared with historical records.
    This isn't the first time that has happened in Earth's history.55million years ago,a warming event similar to the current climate change caused bees,spiders and ants to shrink by 50t0 75percent over several thousand years.That event happened over a longer time than the current climate change.
    The speed of modern climate change could mean organisms may not respond or adapt quickly enough,especially those with long generation times.So,it is likely that more negative influences of climate change will be shown in the future.

67.What does the text mainly talk about?D
A.Why some species become smaller.
B.How climate changes in Earth's history.
C.Climate change has many negative effects.
D.Species are becoming smaller as climate gets warmer.
68.What does the underlined word"trumped"in paragraph l mean?A
A.beaten     B.gained      C.destroyed    D.lost
69.Researchers from the National University of Singapore believe thatB.
A.they have found the exact causes for creatures getting smaller
B.increase in energy use can lead to creatures getting smaller
C.climate change has more negative effects on warm-blooded animals
D.all the animals on the earth have become smaller
70.What does the auther feel about the climate change?A
A.Worried    B.Optimistic   C.Disappointed  D.Shameful.
