    News (March 6, 2008) that Microsoft was making a $44.6 billion bid to buy Yahoo was greeted with heated discussion by many Internet users on Friday. Here are some responses:

    Mark Galeassi of Kansas City, Missouri

    This is the best move for both parties. Yahoo has the ideas and Microsoft has the money to finally market these ideas correctly. Microsoft and Yahoo are a perfect fit and the deal will be good for consumers.

    Scott G. of New Jersey  

    I was a Yahoo user for years along with Hotmail from Microsoft. Then Google came along... Google Earth, Google Toolbar and Gmail. Google is so innovative (創(chuàng)新的) with everything they do. Yahoo and Microsoft... same old story... I don’t think the merger(合并) will do anything for either company except improve the Yahoo shareholders’ bank accounts:

    Michael Glosser of Estero, Florida

Right now, Yahoo offers a lot of features and tools at no cost for all different levels of Intemet 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.

    Toni Suarez of Hacienda Heights, California

    Perhaps it would bring better high technology innovations to e-mail and help in researching and developing a better Internet!

    Antonio Simmons of Parkville, Maryland

    Microsoft purchasing Yahoo would be nothing more than an attempt from Microsoft to further impose upon the users their poor-quality software and obtain more wealth for the company. In my opinion, they will never be able to compete with Google because Yahoo and Microsoft’s current search engines are too inferior (差的) to compete. Even if combined, they still lack.

77. Who is in favor of the merger of Microsoft and Yahoo?

 A. Antonio Simmons.  B. Michael Grosser.    C. Scott G.      D. Mark Galeassi.

78. In the opinion of Scott G.,   

 A. the merger will contribute to Microsoft

閱讀理解。
    Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest
possible words.
    When the Internet powerhouse Yahoo wanted to teach ethics(道德標準) to its employees, it
faced a challenge familiar to multinational companies.
    Yahoo employs nearly 14,000 people at 25 sites worldwide. They would feel bored at sitting
down in front of a dated video in which actors with 1980s haircuts tell them what to do. So it hired
a company calledThe Network <http://www.ks5u.com/> to design a game. In the game, the truck
where Yahoo was founded traveled the world, turning into a boat and a helicopter along the way as
it visited some of Yahoo's foreign offices. Participants play in game show-like scenarios(場景) that
quiz them about conflicts of interest and doing business fairly. And employees note: Yahoo is tracking
how well they do.
    Such activities draw more enthusiastic participation and teach more effectively than traditional
methods. They are described as alternative-reality games (ARGs), involving both interactive and
real-world elements. Besides teaching employees, ARGs have also been used in many areas for a
number of different purposes.
    From a marketing perspective, a number of very successful ARGs have been written as a way to
build product awareness. A very popular ARG called I Love Bees was produced to market the
2004 video game Halo 2 <http://www.ks5u.com/>. At its height, I Love Bees received between
two to three million unique visitors over the course of three months.  
    ARGs are more than just a fun way to learn. They have also been used to solve real world
problems. An ARG called World Without Oil <http://www.ks5u.com/> was created to obtain
collective input from players about dealing with the world's dependency on oil. World without Oil
simulates(模擬) the first 32 days of a global oil crisis and anybody could play by creating a personal
story that recorded the imagined reality of their life in the crisis. World Without Oil's success on a
small budget has opened the door for similar games to engage mainstream Internet users with climate
change, education reform, governmental policy and other timely, vital issues.
    (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)
1.What challenge did yahoo face in teaching ethics to its employees?
2.In the game designed for yahoo, participants had to answer questions about ________.
3.What are the three major functions of ARG mentioned in the passage?
4.The success of World Without Oil <http://www.ks5u.com/> suggests that ARGs can ________.
