20、ng a cart in a shopping mall. Soon, that will change. Electronic commerce (trade) is growing fast and will soon bring people more choices. There will, however, be a cost: protecting the consumer from being cheated will be harder. Many governments therefore want to apply street regulations to the ele
21、ctronic world. But politicians would be wiser to see cyberspace as a basis for a new era of corporate self-regulation.Consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything from the stability of the banks to the safety of the drugs or their ri
22、ghts to refund when goods are faulty. But governments cannot enforce national laws on businesses whose only presence is on the screen. Even in a country where a clear right to compensation exists, the on-line customer in Tokyo, say, can hardly go to New York to get a refund (退款) for a clothes purcha
23、se.One answer is for government to cooperate more: to recognize each others rules. But that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules. And plenty of countries have rules too fanciful for sober countries to accept. There is, however, another choice. Let the electronic businesses do the reg
24、ulation themselves. They do, after all, have a self-interest in doing so.In electronic commerce, a reputation for honest dealing will be a valuable competitive asset. Governments, too, may compete to be trusted. For instance, customers ordering medicines on- line may prefer to buy from the United St
25、ates because they trust the rigorous screening of the Food and Drug Administration; or they may decide that the FDAs rules are too strict, and buy from Switzerland instead.Customers will still need to use their judgment, but precisely because the technology is new, electronic shoppers are likely for
26、 a while to be a lot more cautious than customers of the normal sort. And the new technology will also make it easier for them to complain when a company lets them down. In this way, at least, the advent(出现) of cyberspace may argue for fewer consumer protection laws, not more.41. According to the au
27、thor, what will be the best policy for electronic commerce?A. Self-regulation by the business. B. Strict consumer protection laws.C. Close international cooperation. D. Government protection.42. In case an electronic shopper bought faulty goods from a foreign country, whatcould he do?A. Refuse to pa
28、y for the purchase. B. Go to the seller and ask for a refund. C. Appeal to consumer protection law.D. Complain about it on the Internet.43. In the authors view, businesses would place a high emphasis on honest dealing because in the electronic world _.A. international cooperation would be much more
29、frequent B. consumers could easily seek government protectionC. a good reputation is a great advantage in competitionD. it would be easy for consumers to complain44. We can infer from the passage that in licensing new drugs the FDA in the United States is_.A. very quick B. very cautious C. very slow
30、 D. rather careless45. If a customer buys something that does not meet his expectation, what is the advantage of dealing through electronic commerce over the present normal one?AIt will be easier for him to return the goods he is not satisfied with.BIt will be easier for him to attain the refund fro
31、m the seller.CIt will be easier for him to get his complaints heard by other consumers.DIt will be easier for him to complain about this to the government.BI was going to die in Antarctica，I was certainAn image of my ice-covered body，pale and lifelessfilled my mind as I glanced aroundIn all directio
32、ns the empty wilderness of Antarctica stretched away from meThe only feature on the landscape was the division between snow and sky. I gazed sadly at my teamThey were rapidly disappearing over the horizon I was leading an expedition(探险)attempting to reach the south poleThe team was made up of ordina

40、o the South PoleC. Female Expedition Team DBeing Left behind in the Snow CWhile residents of wealthy nations tend to have greater life satisfaction, new research shows that those living in poorer nations report having greater meaning in life.These findings, published in Psychological Science, a jour
41、nal of the Association for Psychological science, suggest that meaning in life may be higher in poorer nations as a result of greater religiosity (笃信宗教). As countries become richer, religion becomes less central to peoples lives and they lose a sense of meaning in life.“Thus far, the wealth of natio
42、ns has been almost always associated with longevity, health, happiness or life satisfaction,” explains psychological scientist Shigehiro Oishi of the University of Virginia. “Given that meaning in life is an important aspect of overall well-being, we wanted to look more carefully at differential pat
43、terns, correlates (相关物), and predictors for meaning in life.”Oishi and colleague Ed Diener of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign investigated life satisfaction, meaning, and well-being by examining data from the 2007 Gallup World Poll, a large-scale survey of over 140,000 participants fr
44、om 132 countries. In addition to answering a basic life satisfaction question, participants were asked: “Do you feel your life has an important purpose or meaning?” and “Is religion an important part of your daily life?”The data revealed some unexpected trends:“Among Americans, those who are high in
45、 life satisfaction are also high in meaning in life,” says Oishi. “But when we looked at the societal level of analysis, we found a completely different pattern of the association between meaning in life and life satisfaction.”When looking across many countries, Oishi and Diener found that people in
46、 wealthier nations were more educated, had fewer children, and expressed more individualistic attitudes compared to those in poorer countries all factors that were associated with higher life satisfaction but a significantly lower sense of meaning in life.”The data suggest that religiosity may play
47、an important role: Residents of wealthier nations, where religiosity is lower, reported less meaning in life and had higher suicide rates than poorer countries.According to the researchers, religion may provide meaning to life to the extent that it helps people to overcome personal difficulty and co
48、pe with the struggles of working to survive in poor economic conditions:“Religion gives a system that connects daily experiences with the coherent whole (连贯的整体) and a general structure to ones life and plays a critical role in constructing meaning out of extreme hardship,” the researchers write.Oish
49、i and Diener hope to reproduce these findings using more comprehensive measures of meaning and religiosity, and are interested in following countries over time to track whether economic prosperity gives rise to less religiosity and less meaning in life.51.The wealth of nations has always been relate
50、d to all the following except _. A. longevityB. healthC. happinessD. a life of purpose52. Which of the following questions couldnt the participants have answered? A. Does your life have a purpose or meaning? B. Do you have relatives living abroad? C. Are you satisfied with your everyday life?D. Is r
51、eligion involved in your daily life?53. Which of the following statements is true? A. Those who have higher life satisfaction usually have lower sense of meaning in life. B. People in wealthier nations were more educated, have fewer children and express less individualistic attitudes compared to tho
52、se in poorer countries. C. Religion may provide meaning to life in that people can get strong support from it in face of hardship. D. Wealthy people are more likely to commit suicide than poor people.54. What can be inferred from the passage? A. The poorer a country is, the more religious its people
53、 are. B. Economic prosperity gives rise to less religiosity and less meaning in life. C. If you want to find meaning in life, you must practice a religion. D. Meaning in life doesnt have much to do with the amount of wealth one possesses.55. The main purpose of the passage is to explain the possible
54、 reason why _. A. greater life satisfaction leads to lower sense of meaning B. residents of poorer nations enjoy greater meaning in life C. residents of poorer nations are so religious D. residents of wealthy nations have greater life satisfactionDScotland is a unique place, loaded with history, whe
55、re you can find aristocratic（贵族的）palaces and castles, as well as the traditional parades in national costumes. In order to see and discover the true soul of Scotland today and what formed the character of this splendid region, we have to go towards the northern regions, to the Grampian Mountains（格兰扁
56、山区）, beautiful and plain. The Scots conquered the environment with simple spades and strong arms, for it was difficult to farm. The history of this ancient struggle, and its peoples ancient love with the hard land, can be felt within the walls of the Angus Folk Museum. You are able to get a feel of
57、the typical rural atmosphere of times past from the everyday artifacts displayed here.From coastal Aberdeen in towards the Grampian Mountains there runs the Castle Trail, a road that touches on many fortresses（堡垒）, which are witnesses of continual fights against the control of neighboring England in
58、 Scottish history. Perhaps the most exciting moment for Scottish autonomy is the one experienced inside this ancient church of Arbroath, where, in 1320, the Declaration of Independence was celebrated, at the instigation（鼓动）of King Robert the Bruce. He carried out the plan for autonomy drawn up by th
59、e great popular hero William Wallace, for whom cinema has designed the wonderful film Brave Heart, the winner of the five Oscars. This is Glamis Castle, where King Macbeth and Queen Elizabeth used to live. Among the most frequent guests here are the predictable ghosts, if not actually created, by an
60、cient popular beliefs. These have been handed down over the centuries by people tending to live with mystery, with the forces of the supernatural. Another attraction here is a legendary monster: the Loch Ness Monster. Whether its real or imaginary, this monster, which has been nicknamed Nessie, has
61、collected a good 3,000 sightings over the last 50 years.The true flag of Scotland, tartan, is recognizable from the brightly colored plaid patterns which are used to distinguish the various social groups.
