解答 36-40 CADBG
36.C 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.根據(jù)后句About 136million people shopped during the Thanksgiving Holiday weekend.可知,一億3600萬人口在感恩節(jié)購物,可見感恩節(jié)是最忙的時候.
37.A 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.根據(jù)后文內(nèi)容在信息時代,顧客可以使用他們的手機(jī)來達(dá)成交易.可知本段的第一句應(yīng)該是關(guān)于手機(jī)和購物有關(guān)系的.故選A.
38.D 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.根據(jù)本段的內(nèi)容可知,是關(guān)于手機(jī)和購物的關(guān)系,前后文都是關(guān)于網(wǎng)上購物的數(shù)據(jù)資料,所以此處是關(guān)于使用手機(jī)的內(nèi)容,故選D.
39.B 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.前文提到網(wǎng)上購物對實體店的影響,再接合That is the highest level in 27years.可知這是最高的影響了.
40.G 考查對上下文的理解和推理判斷能力.從后句That goes to China's Singles'Day,celebrated on November 11,which posted record sales of 14.3billion in 2015.可知,光棍節(jié)也是購物高峰期,可見感恩節(jié)不是唯一最大購物日.
