A lot of real businesses are focusing on the Internet as a way of building sales, but some

people with nothing to sell are creating their own Websites to announce wedding plans, show off pictures of their kids or just have communications. It's not as hard as you think and it can be a lot of fun. Carol Masser has some tips on building your own Website. "Like my living room, or my study, it's where I put mementos (纪念品) , collectibles (收藏物) , books and paintings and things that I would like to show to my friends and relatives. "

Renne Tubegeihan uses his own Website to invite people into his virtual home. While John Marashod designed his own Website to attract other parents of disabled children, " I'd say the goal of this site is to basically link parents in the same situation with disabled children and exchange ideas with one another. "

Renne and John are part of a growing number of surfers who have established their own Websites. If you want to weave a Web yourself, it's easier than you think. The first step is to get your own Web address. They're sold by Web service providers like Microsoft, AT&T, and other local companies. You are expected to pay between 15 and 25 dollars every month to rent space for your site. But some companies, like Tripod and Geocities, issue the site for free if you agree to allow their advertising on your page.

Before you get into setting up your own Website, you should go around and do some surfing and check out other sites. Once you know what you want to do, it's time to build. If you just want the basics, you can use Microsoft's free Internet Assistant; or if you want to get a little fancier, you can buy a software program like Adobe Page Mill for 100 dollars, or Microsoft's FrontPage Editor for 150 dollars.

According to the passage, some people create their own Websites in order to______.

A.sell their personal things

B.set up family business

C.communicate with others

D.show off their Website building skills

Professor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to desc
ribe the way many north Americans interact these days. The term is " networked individualism". This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.

Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail, our social networks involved live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and colleagues at work. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.

A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that's a good thing. Why?

In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expected helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions.

Thanks to the computer, "networked individuals" are able to be alone and together with other people—at the same time .

The Pew study was conducted in______.

A.The United States

B.Canada

C.The U. S. and Canada

D.Europe

There's a professor at the University of Toronto in Canada who has come up with a term to
describe the way a lot of North Americans interact these days. And now a big research study confirms it.

Professor Barry Wellman's term is "networked individualism". It's not the easiest concept to grasp. In fact, the words seem to contradict each other. How can we be individualistic and networked at the same time? You need other people for network.

Here's what he means. Until the Internet and e-mail came along, our social network involved flesh-and-blood relatives, friends, neighbors, and colleagues. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real life.

But the latest study confirms that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced a great deal of social activities and person-to-person interaction. Some people worry that the Internet is turning us into isolated people who shut out other people in favor of a false world on computer screens.

To the contrary, the study discovered that the Internet connects us with more real people than expected—helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told the researcher that the Internet plays an important or crucial role in helping them deal with major life decisions.

So we networked individuals are pretty tricky: we're keeping more to ourselves, while at the same time reaching out to more people, all with just the click of a computer mouse!

The term "networked individualism" is used to refer to______.

A.the way that modem people communicate on the Internet

B.a social activity popular with North Americans

C.the contradiction within network communication

D.a newly invented Internet software

Everyone has got two personalities-the one that is shown to the world and the other that i
s secret and real. You don't show your secret personality when you're awake. Because you can control yourself. But when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people often change their position. The important position is the one you go to sleep in.

If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You usually believe people and you accept new things or new ideas easily. You don't like to make people sad, so you never express your real feeling. You're quite shy.

If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and you always easily become sad. You usually live for today not tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.

If you sleep curled up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself. You're shy and don't like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You're easily hurt.

If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You don't often get sad. You always say what you think even if it makes other people unhappy.

When do you show your secret personality?

A.When you are awake.

B.When you fall into deep sleep.

C.The moment you go to sleep.

D.when you lie in bed.

Passage Two

In 1826, a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business. So he invented a very simple camera. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his garden. That was the first photo.

The next important date in the history of photography (摄影术) was in 1837. That year, Daguere, another Frenchman, took a picture of his reading room. He used a new kind of camera in a different way. In his picture you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest thing. This kind of photo was called a Daguerreotype.

In about 1840, photography was developed. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. That was not simple. The photographers had to carry a lot of film and other machines. But this did not stop them, for example, some in the United States worked so hard.

Mathew Brady was a famous American photographer. He took many pictures of great people. The pictures were unusual' because they were very lifelike.

Photographs also became one kind of art by the end of the 19th century. Some photos were not just copies of the real world. They showed feelings like other kinds of art.

Short Answers1 Auctions are public sales of goods conducted by an officially approved

Short Answers

1 Auctions are public sales of goods conducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He

asks the crowd assembled in the auction-room to make offers, or "bids", for the various

items on sale. He encourages buyers to b 记 higher figures, and finally names the highest

bidder as the buyer of the good. Practically all goods whose (lualities vary are sold by

auction. Among these are coffee, skins, wool, tea, furs, species, fruit and vegetables and

wines. Auction sales are also useful for land and property, antique furniture, pictures, rare

kooks, old china and works of art

2 An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be

sold; and where and when they can be viewed by prospective buyers. TI the advertisement

cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of goods to be sold together,

called a "lot", is usually given a number. The auctioneer need not begin with Lot 1 and

continue in numerical order; he may wait until he registers the fact that certain dealers are in

the rocm and then produces the lots they are likely to be interested in. The auctioneer's

services are paid for in the form. of a percentage of the price the goods

are sold for. The

auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible

3 The auctioneer must know fairly accurately the current market values of the goods

he is selling, and he should be acquainted with regular buyers of such goods. Fe will not

waste time by starting the bidding too low. He will also play on the rival among his buyers

and succeed in getting a high price by encouraging two business competitors to bid against

each other. It is largely in his advice that a seller will fix a "reserved" price, that is, a price

below which the goods cannot be sold. Even the best auctioneers, however, find it difficult

to stop a 'knock-out", whereby dealers illegally arranged themselves as the only bidder, in

the hope of buying goods at extremely low prices. If such a "knock-out" comes off, the real

auction sale takes place privately afterwards among the dealers

Questions31-35:

31. What are auctinns?

32. What are the goods which can be sold by auction? (Name at least three)

33. Mhat is a "lot"?

34. How are the auctloneer, s services pa 记 for?

35. What wifl happen if a "knock-out" is achieved?

第10题
Imagine the U.S. economic gains of the 1990s, and what comes to mind? Perhaps it was how t
he stock market ruled: All those initial public offerings that raked in unprecedented billions for venture capitalists.

And wasn't it a great time to be a top manager, with productivity gains boosting the bottom line and igniting executive pay? While it was going on, venture capitalist L. John Doerr called the boom the "largest single legal creation of wealth in history."

Well, yes and no. With the recession apparently over, it's now possible to make a more realistic assessment of the entire business cycle of the 1990s: The sluggish recovery that started in March, 1991, the extraordinary boom, the tech bust, and the downturn of 2001. And guess what? A lot of things happened that defy the conventional beliefs about the decade.

Over this 10-year period, productivity rose at a 2.2% annual rate, roughly half a percentage point faster than in the 1980s—a significant gain. But the real stunner is this: The biggest winners from the faster productivity growth of the 1990s were workers, not investors. In many ways, the most tangible sign of worker gains in the 1990s was the home-buying boom. This revelation helps us understand why consumer spending stayed so strong in the recession—and why businesses may still struggle in the months ahead.

By contrast, the return on the stock market in the 1990s business cycle was actually lower than it was in the business cycle of the 1980s. Adjusted for inflation and including dividends, average annual returns on the S&P—500 index from March, 1991, to the end of 2001 were 11.1%, compared with 12.8% in the previous business cycle.

Overall, Business Week calculates that U.S. workers received 99% of the gains from faster productivity growth in the 1990s at nonfinancial corporations. Corporate profits did rise sharply, but much of that gain was fueled by lower interest rates rather than increased productivity.

Why did workers fare so well in the 1990s? The education level of many Americans made an impressive leap in the 1990s, putting them in a better position to qualify for the sorts of jobs that the New Economy created. Low unemployment rates drove up wages. And a torrent of foreign money coming into the U.S. created new jobs and financed productivity-enhancing equipment investment.

As it turns out, the original perceptions of who benefited most from the productivity gains of the 1990s was flipped on its head. Looking ahead, the economic pie is growing bigger all the time, but it's still up for grabs who will get the largest piece in the future. And in the end, that's the real lesson of the 1990s.

According to the writer, the original notion on the productivity gains of the 1990s turns out to be

A.somewhat superficial.

B.quite trustworthy.

C.rather misleading.

D.very illuminating.
