(2015·安徽安庆五校3月联考)
Alibaba started taking the lead in China by connecting big Chinese manufacturers(制造商) with big buyers across the world.Its businesstobusiness site,Alibaba.com,allowed businesses to buy almost everything.Alibaba’s advantage wasn’t hard to judge:size.Alibaba is just big,even by Chinese standards.Its markets 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 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 businesstobusiness model now is second 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—bigbox 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 wide 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 Chineselanguage 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 businesstobusiness service
B.its big size
C.its not charging small sellers
D.its low price
2.What can we learn from the underlined sentence in the passage?
A.Alibaba is of middle size among all the online sites.
B.Alibaba will continue to develop.
C.Alibaba acts as a bridge between the buyers and sellers.
D.Alibaba stands out as the best online site.
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Alibaba’s businesstobusiness service earns more money than retail now.
B.Taobao has no obvious advantage over other similar online sites.
C.TMall.com provides more profit than Taobao.
D.The author’s Chinese teacher is also an online purchase lover.
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Shopping online in China is Taobao.
B.Alibaba greatly influences people’s daily purchases in China.
C.Shopping online goes beyond traditional shopping.
D.How the author purchases online in China.

The iPod Generation
Today it is common to see people who walk about with colored wires hanging from their ears wherever they go.They move about in their personal bubbles,sometimes unaware of what’s happening around them.
5
Outside life is shut out.So are you one of them?
For me,walking around in my own personal bubble is perfect.
6
What’s even better,wearing earphones seems to give a signal to people which says,“I’m not available for chatting at the moment!”
Suppose,you’re at work and about to make an incredible breakthrough,but a colleague suddenly turns up.At this precise moment,the slightest disturbance would break your concentration.
7
Once again,those wires hanging from your ears would be sure to give that “Go away!” signal.
8
It’s probably part of the growing up stage when they just want to ignore their whole family while their mothers give them lectures about why they should do their “Yes.Mum.” Problem solved.
Pretty soon,not only will we have pretty colored wires hanging from our ears—but also our brains will be directly plugged into some new hightech instruments.We’ll be in a virtual(虚拟的) world,communicating with everyone else,or choosing not to,as we like.In this world,we will all be permanently plugged in.
9
And they are changing our social habits along the way.
In the end,there is a thin line between using technology as a tool for making life better and being a slave to it!It’s so strange—suddenly,I don’t feel like wearing my earphones anymore.
A.Our instruments are changing quickly.
B.I also have wires hanging from my ears.
C.In the home situation,teenagers love these wires.
D.I don’t have to deal with the noise from the environment.
E.After all,I am listening to my favourite music and would rather not be disturbed.
F.Listening to music through earphones is the perfect way to ignore such interruptions.
G.They walk around in their own spaces,with their personal digital noise reduction systems.

children can be.This will only single her out.”
As the start of school drew closer,Aimee began to

17

18
your back.You can’t use it for the rest of the class
19
you have to do.”
Then I asked them to
20
shoelaces.Some students began working in pairs to have two hands
21
for the job.Some attempted it on their own and
22
soon showed on their faces and in their actions.
23
one boy put up his hand and said,“I can’t do this with one hand.I need
24
.”The rest of his classmates
25
in agreement.
I began to simply

at birth caused both these conditions as well as learning disabilities.I
