15、s. In spite of online convenience, however, there are some items-like clothes-that customers prefer to examine before buying. In light of this, two companies are finding ways to modernize stores and bridge the gap _22_ online and in-store retail. Hointer, a software company that also happens to sell
16、 designer jeans, _23_ (create) a fast and painless shopping experience for its customers. The company _24_ (lead) by Dr. Nadia Shouraboura, a former tech executive at Amazon. Shoppers walk into a Hointer store and select one of the many pairs of jeans _25_ (hang) down from the bars. Then they point
17、their smartphones at the tag and activate the Hointer app, after _26_they select the size and press “try on”. The app then _27_ (direct) them to a specific dressing room. German-made robots retrieve the designed jeans and deliver them through a chute to the dressing room in about 30 seconds. Purchas
18、es at Hointer are made with a swipe of a credit card. And _28_ (interact) with a salesperson is optional. This allows Hointer to hire _29_ (few) people and focus on their ultimate goal: developing technology _30_supports a retail revolution. III. Complete the following passage by using the words in

20、ng a game of soccer. A dispute arises about whether a kick went over the foul line. Voices are _31_; tempers flare. Making a quick calculation about the relative benefits of continuing the game, the players work out a _32_. Maybe they replay the kick. Maybe they _33_ to say that the ball was fair. T
21、heir willingness to compromise, to accept the idea that such give-and-take is part of life, allows the game to _34_. The players move on, having learned a small _35_ about getting along with others. Contrast that scene with the world of the Internet chat rooms, where many adolescents spend _36_ hour
22、s. On that same lovely Saturday, a young Internet queen hunches over her keyboard, alone in her room. Her buddy list includes dozens, even scores, of “friends” shes never met. Her fingers fly across the key board, keeping up multiple _37_. If a “friend” eventually becomes _38_, she can instantly era
23、se him from her buddy list. It is no great loss. There are literally millions of new acquaintances _39_ to be picked up in a chat room. She wouldnt have to work at relationships.

24、%)The post-quake reconstruction involves not only the rebuilding of homes, schools, and other infrastructure facilities, but also the restoration of the badly-damaged ecological environment. The damage this quake has _41_ to local ecology is tremendous.Forest coverage in many mountainous areas has b
25、een _42_ reduced because of landslides and mudslides, and some forest-covered mountains have been left only with rocks. The _43_ around the epicenter are exactly the habitat of the giant panda, an animal that is unique to China and considered a living _44_ in terms of its long history of evolution.T
26、he significance of ecological balance for _45_ peoples lives can never be overestimated when it comes to economic development and social progress from a _46_ point of view. What is more, the ecology in the quake-affected areas has a direct bearing on the entire ecological _47_ of the Yangtze River.
27、From the perspective, it is of national importance to rebuild the damaged ecological balance there. _48_ aftershocks make it difficult for forest experts to travel deep into the mountains to see exactly how _49_ the damage is to the biological environment. But one thing that can be done is to mobili
28、ze local villagers on high _50_ against possible fire as many_51_ trees are becoming drier in the increasingly higher temperature and may easily catch fire. It will be tough battle for some 1,4000 wild giant pandas to _52_ in the damaged mountain forests. It is estimated that there will not be enoug
29、h bamboo forests, because they were badly damaged or even _53_ by the tremor. (震动).What is badly needed is a careful study of the overall damage that the local ecology has _54_. On the basis of it, experts may design a detailed plan as to how the shaken ecological balance can be best restored and th

Read and Choose 16% (A)In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. if you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of
33、 the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes its a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.I
34、n social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the attention to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish
35、 to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued hig
36、hly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think keeping a business associate waiting for an hour. It would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late is expected to make a short apology. If he
37、 is less than 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, thought perhaps he will not complete the sentence.56. “The same meaning is attached to telephone calls after 11:00 p.m.”Here “attached” means _. A. takenB. drawnC. givenD. shown57. According to this passage, time plays an importan
38、t role in _. A. everyday life B. school lifeC. social life D. private life58. The best title for this passage is _.A. The voice of TimeB. The Importance of TimeC. The Importance of an AnnouncementD. Time and Tide wait for No Man59. According to the passage, the author of the article may agree to whi
39、ch of the following statement?A. It is appropriate to send your invitation cards three or four days before a dinner party date in U.S.A.B. It may be appropriate to send your invitation cards to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in some countries.C. It is best for one to make
40、telephone calls at eight because it costs much less.D. If one is less than 5minutes late, he has to make a short apology. (B)It is generally accepted that the experience of the child in his first years largely determine his character and later personality. Every experience teaches the child somethin
41、g and the effects are cumulative. “Upbringing” is normally used to refer to the treatment and training of the child within the home. This is closely related to the treatment and training of the child in school, which is usually distinguished by the term “education”. In a society such as ours, both p
42、arents and teachers are responsible for the opportunities provided for the development of the child, so that upbringing and education are interdependent.The ideals and practices of child rearing vary from culture to culture. In general, the more rural the community, the more uniform are the customs
43、of child upbringing. In more technologically developed societies, the period of childhood and adolescence tends to be extended over a long time, resulting in more opportunity for education and greater variety in character development.Early upbringing in the home is naturally affected both by the cul
44、tural pattern of the community and by the parents capabilities and their aims and depends not only on upbringing and education but also on the innate abilities of the child. Wide differences of innate intelligence and temperament exist even in children of the same family.Intelligent parents, however
45、, realize that the particular setting of each family is unique, and there can be no rigid general rules. They use general information only as a guide in making decisions and solving problems.All parents have to solve the problems of freedom and discipline. The younger the child, the more readily the
46、 mother gives in to his demands to avoid disappointing him. She knows that if his energies are not given an outlet, her childs continuing development may be warped. A child must be allowed to enjoy this “messy” but tactile stage of discovery before he is ready to go on to the less physical pleasures
47、 of toys and books. Similarly, throughout life, each stage depends on the satisfactory completion of the one before.60. Its a general belief that a childs later character and personality is _ decided by his early experience both at home and in school. A. chieflyB. by chanceC. entirelyD. seldom61. Th
48、e world “cumulative” in Line 3 most probably means _. A. decisiveB. extremely beneficial C. strongD. progressively greater62. A childs development might well be unfavourably affected if _. A. he were subjected to unusually strict discipline B. his mother often gave in to his demands C. his energies
49、were freely given an outlet D. he were brought up in a happy environment63. As it is presented in the passage, rather than a smooth progression the developmentof the human character and personality is a series of _.A. actsB. stagesC. functionsD. completions（C）Throughout the history of the arts, the
50、nature of creativity has remained constant to artists. No matter what objects they select, artists are to bring forth new forces and forms that cause change to find poetry where no one has ever seen or experienced it before.Landscape is another unchanging element of art. It can be found from ancient
51、 times through the 17th-century Dutch painters to the 19th-century romanticists and impressionists. In the 1970s, Alfred Leslie, one of the new American realists, continued this practice. Leslie sought out the same place where Thomas Cole, a romanticist, had produced paintings of the same scene a ce
52、ntury and a half before. Unlike Cole who insists on a feeling of loneliness and the idea of finding peace in nature, Leslie paints what he actually sees. In his paintings, there is no particular change in emotion, and he includes ordinary things like the highway in the background. He also takes adva
53、ntage of the latest developments of color photography to help both the eye and the memory when he improves his painting back in his workroom.Besides, all art begs the age-old question: What is real? Each generation of artists has shown their understanding of reality in one form or another. The impre
54、ssionists saw reality in brief emotional effects, the realists in everyday subjects and in forest scenes, and the Cro-Magnon cave people in their naturalistic drawings of the animals in the ancient forests。 To sum up, understanding reality is a necessary struggle for artists of all periods.Over thou
55、sands of years the function of the arts has remained relatively constant. Past or present, Eastern or Western, the arts are a basic part of our immediate experience. Many and different are the faces of art, and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings.64. The underlined word poe
56、try most probably means_.A. an object of artistic creationB. a collection of poemsC. an unusual qualityD. a natural scene65. Leslies paintings are extraordinary because _.A. they are close in style to works in ancient timesB. they look like works by 19th-century paintersC. they draw attention to com
57、mon things in lifeD. they depend heavily on color photography66. What is the authors opinion of artistic reality?A. It will not be found in future works of artB. It does not have a long-lasting standard.C. It is expressed in a fixed artistic form.D. It is lacking in modern works of art.67. What does
58、 the author suggest about the arts in the last paragraph?A. They express peoples curiosity about the past.B. They make people interested in everyday experience.C. They are considered important for variety in form.D. They are regarded as a mirror of the human situation.(D)More and more, the operation
59、s of our business, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap substantial rewards. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at
60、it have managed to get away without punishment.Its easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers.Of course, we
61、have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But its disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught have been the victims of uncommonly bad luck. For exa
62、mple, a certain keypunch(键盘打孔) operator complained of having to stay overtime to punch extra cards. Investigation revealed that the extra cards she was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off(向透露)the company that was being
63、 robbed. Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met
64、. Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled(耍弄) the most confidential records right under the noses of the company
65、s executives, accountants, and security staff. And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere. 68. It can be concluded from the passage that_. A. it is still impossible to detect computer crimes today B. computer crimes are the most s
66、erious problems in the operation of financial institutionsC. computer criminals can escape punishment because they cant be detectedD. people commit computer crimes at the request of their company69. It is implied in the third paragraph that _.A. many more computer crimes go undetected than are disco
67、veredB. the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problemC. most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimesD. most computer criminals who are caught blame their bad luck70. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?A. A strict law against computer crimes must
68、be enforced.B. Companies need to impose restrictions on confidential information.C. Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputation.D. Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes.71. What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught?A. With bad reputation
69、they can hardly find another job.B. They will be denied access to confidential records.C. They may walk away and easily find another job.D. They must leave the country or go to jail.Paper TwoI.
