Chinese e-commerce websites fail to pay more attention to olderconsumers, says a news report.
There’s been a thought that younger consumers have been thedriving force of online buying. That may not be the case. According to astatement from Alipay, the average expenditure (支出) of Alipayusers born before the 1960s was 31,000 yuan in 2012, much higher than 14,000yuan of those born after the 1980s. It shows that online shopping has become akey part of people’s daily consumption, for both young and old.
Besides shopping, people pay bills such as water bill,electricity bill, and credit card repayment online. The middle-aged and seniorconsumers are also participating in that consumption revolution.
Liu Chen, 56, said that his online expenditure in 2014 was over50,000 yuan, about half of the total annual expenditure. He always pays histelephone bill online. Clothes, electrical appliances and kids’ snacks are themain items he purchases online.
Liu’s shopping strategy is to find something good online first,then go to shops to check it out, and finally buy it online because it ischeaper. As quality concerns him, Liu only buys items that come with aguarantee.
Stories such as those from Liu are representative of millions ofmiddle-aged and older Chinese, which show the great potential of the aged inthe Chinese consumption market. Yet, the market seems not to be valued as itshould be.
Some Chinese e-commerce websites such as jd. com, dangdang. comand amazon. cn don’t have a category for goods for the elderly on their mainpages. Alibaba’s platform does have one, but the goods in it are not asabundant as other categories. Moreover, Taobao’s category is not reallydesigned for elders, but their children.
Despite the seeming lack of commitment to older consumers, theChinese market for the elderly is clearly huge, and e-commerce websites should takegreat efforts to develop it.
(1)The data in Paragraph 2 is used to prove that ________.
A.young people have learned to save money
B.older people are crazy about online shopping
C.young people are the driving force of online shopping
D.both the young and the old have contributed to online shopping
(2)According to the passage, Liu Chen mainly spends money online on _______.
a. buying clothes
b. paying the telephone bill
c. paying the electricity bill
d. buying electrical appliances
A.a, b, c

C.great potential
D.quality guarantee
(4)Which is the best title of the passage?
A.Online shopping
B.Older consumers in e-commerce

【題目】閱讀理解
Twenty-five years ago, most young Britons wanted a career in law, to be a doctor, or, if they were creative enough, to take up singing. But today, things stand differently.
According to a survey by Tesco Mobile, a UK company, the “dream job” of young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger, or “vlogger”. The survey, carried out among 1,002 people, found that as much as 40 percent of them put vlogger as their number one choice on a list of ideal careers.
This change is undoubtedly as a result of the Internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach audience of the world, without having to enter a career in show business in the traditional way.
In the past, the biggest stars were trained by the Hollywood studios; now, anyone with a computer camera can become a star. Vloggers are the big stars of today because they are normal people interacting with their fans about everyday life.”
However, what people see is only the bright side of being a vlogger and they fail to notice the fact that only those who are successful earn fame(名聲) and fortune. For every success there are hundreds of others who never get off the starting line. There are the dreams that come true and the dreams that remain dreams forever.
Although being vloggers is popular, some young people choose to follow careers that don't necessarily earn them fame, but allow them to make good use of the Internet to share their hobbies. Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. It's an online platform for runners to keep a record of their races. His job allows him to express his enthusiasm, and is always a learning experience. And that's enough for him.
(1)What is the passage mainly about?
A.Most young Britons choose to be vloggers as their job.
B.The Internet is influencing young Britions' career choice.
C.The Internet is taking the place of traditional studios.
D.Young Britons can not find jobs without the Internet.
(2)Why do more and more young Britons choose to be vloggers?
A.Vloggers can earn greater fame and more money on the Internet.
B.There is too much competition in the traditional show business.
C.The Internet makes it convenient to enter show business.
D.Anyone with a computer will surely become a star.
(3)What can we infer from the fifth paragraph?
A.Only a few vloggers can be successful.
B.A vlogger can not earn fame and fortune.
C.People often see the bright side of being a vlogger.
D.Dreams will always remain to be dreams.
(4)What do young people like David do on the Internet?
A.Learn from others.
B.Become an online hit.
C.Hold running races.
D.Mix jobs with hobbies.

Dear Mandy,
I'm not doing well in my lessons at school, especial in maths. My dad says I must try hard because he wants me go to university. He thinks I'm lazy, but it's not true. I work really hard, often study late into the night! I've tried to talk to my mother, but she always said I have to work as hard like my brother does. My brother doesn't study very hard, and he always gets excellent grades. It's not fair! The only thing I like it is art. My teacher says I'm the best student she's had for year. When I told my dad,all he said was, “You mustn't waste your time in art. You must focus your mind on your lessons!” I'm feeling quite puzzling as to what to do now. Would you please help me out?
Thanks a lot!
Yours,
Lisa

【題目】閱讀理解
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
The Price of Success
One problem for schools is that many students do not want to study hard. As a result, they perform (表現(xiàn)) poorly in their classes. This is especially true in the United States, where average scores for math and science are lower than in many other countries. In recent years, schools and charities have been looking for ways to help students get better grades in these subjects. An organization called the LMD Foundation introduced a program called Learn and Earn recently.
In the program, money was used to get a group of students to study harder in math and science. In addition to the normal school day, they went to after-school classes for four hours each week. The students were paid eight dollars for each hour of after-school class. By the end of the year, the students in the program had higher grades than a similar group of students who had not taken part.
Not everyone thinks that this is a good idea, though. TV reporter John Tulenko studied data (數(shù)據(jù)) from a similar program. He found that students' grades went back down when they stopped getting paid. Many people are worried about this. They think that the students study because they want money, not because they enjoy learning. Also, some people believe that these types of programs are a bad idea because it is a large part of a teacher's job to get students to study. If students are given money, some teachers might stop trying to do this.
However, others believe that these learning programs can be helpful for students from poor families. Many of these students do part-time jobs after school, and some even quit school at a young age to work. Some do this to help get money for their families. Others feel that they can learn more by working than by going to school. Programs like Learn and Earn let these students stay in school and still make money.
(1)What is true about many students in the United States?
A.They are not allowed to receive help from organizations.
B.They study more than students in other countries.
C.They are doing poorly in math and science.
D.They do not help their classmates get better grades.
(2)Students in the Learn and Earn program ________.
A.were asked to help other students with poor grades
B.were given money if their grades went up
C.were made to go to school during summer vacation
D.were paid to go to extra classes after school
(3)Why do some people think that programs like Learn and Earn are a bad idea?
A.Students' grades only improve a little during the program.
B.Students stop studying when they are in the program.
C.Teachers might stop trying to do a big part of their job.
D.Teachers have started giving low grades to save money.
