   One of the biggest challenges faced by brick- and-mortar retailers(实体零售店) in recent years has been the" showrooming". Driven by the desire to get the best prices, many shoppers are now visiting stores to check on products that interest them, only to leave and then buy the items online. The new trend is forcing retailers to find out new ways to keep consumers from leaving their stores for cheaper prices online.

Smart phones have pushed showrooming into the front. Shoppers no longer have to wait until they get home to see if they can find a cheaper price for the products they're considering buying. With smart phones, consumers can now compare online prices with those of brick-and-mortar stores while still inside a retail store. If they can find what they're seeking with less money online, the majority will seek the first exit. A recent study showed that 45 percent of consumers shopping at brick-and-mortar stores walk out and make their purchase online for a discount of as little as 2. 5 percent.

This puts pressure on retailers to provide both an in-store experience worth staying and an online presence that can attract shoppers who are showrooming in other businesses.

To cut down on showrooming, many retailers are adopting new methods to keep shoppers in their stores. Among the steps they're taking are price-matching guarantees that allow shoppers to pay a discounted price if they find it cheaper online. This ensures that even a showrooming shopper can make the purchase in the store regardless of whether he finds the cheaper price online.

Another popular method of fighting against showrooming is to give shoppers the ability to buy something online and pick it up at the store. This reduces shipping costs and gets customers in the store, where they may be encouraged to make an additional purchase.

It is also important for businesses to take into consideration what makes shoppers purchase something in a store rather than online, and meet those needs. Research has found that more than 8 in 10 Americans consider the most important aspects--being able to take the goods home immediately and the ability to touch and feel them when they are deciding to purchase in a store rather than online.

【小题1】According to the passage, what does a showrooming shopper tend to do?
A.Pay for everything online.

【小题2】What contributes to growing popularity of showrooming?
A.The advertisement by online retail giants.
B.The competition among big stores.
C.The wide use of smart phones.
D.The decline of the brick-and-mortar stores.
【小题3】What does the underlined words "seek the first exit" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Search for lower prices.
B.Make a purchase at once.
C.Locate the nearest exit quickly.
D.Leave as soon as possible.
【小题4】What do the last three paragraphs mainly talk about?
A.Ways of increasing sales at stores.
B.Ways of promoting purchase online.
C.Ways of satisfying customers needs.
D.Ways of advising shoppers to buy more.

When you get in your car, you reach for it. When you’re at work, you take a break to have a moment alone with it. When you get into a lift, you play with it.
Cigarettes? Cup of coffee? No, it’s the third most addictive(使人上瘾的) thing in modern life, the cell phone. And experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their wishes to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationships.
With its shiny surface, its smooth and satisfying touch, the cell phone connects us to the world even as it disconnects us from people three feet away. It affects us in ways its inventors in the late 1940s never imagined.
Dr. Chris Knippers, an expert at the Betty Ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has become a social problem not much different from other harmful addictions: a barrier to one-on-one personal contact, and an escape from reality.
Sounds extreme, but we’ve all witnessed the evidence: the person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone in the car, ignoring her husband; the teen who texts messages all the way home from school, avoiding contact with kids all around him. Is it just rude, or is it a kind of unhealthiness? And pardon me, but how is this improving the quality of life?
Jim Williams, an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts, he points to a study by Duke University researchers that found one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with. Despite the growing use of phones, e-mail and instant messaging, in other words, Williams says studies show that we don’t have as many friends as our parents. “Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances(熟人) through the Internet and cell phones have produced fewer friends,” he says.
If the cell phone has truly had these effects, it’s because it has become very widespread. In 1987, there were only 1 million cell phones in use. Today, almost 300 million Americans carry them. The number of cell phones is far more than that of wired phones in the United States.
【小题1】Which of the following could probably best explain the title of the passage?
A.Cell phone users smoke less than they used to.
B.More people use cell phones than smoke cigarettes.
C.Cell phones have become as addictive as cigarettes.
D.Using cell phone is just as cool as smoking cigarettes.
【小题2】The underlined word “curb” in Paragraph 2 means ________.
A.rescueB.controlC.developD.ignore
【小题3】Which idea does the example of a woman talking on the phone in the car support?
A.Women use cell phones more often than men.
B.Talking on the phone while driving is dangerous.
C.Cell phones make one-on-one personal contact easy.
D.Cell phones do not necessarily bring people together.
【小题4】What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?
A.How to make people get closer.
B.The advantages of wired phones.
C.How to use cell phones properly.
D.Giving an example to prove the bad effects of cell phones.

   For the last few decades,women have been breaking barriers in professions. But a new study shows that there is a hidden barrier girls are meeting with.

"Girls are facing prejudice(偏见)from boys,from some parents,and even from each other. We have made a lot of progress in gender(性别)equality but we still have a long way to go,"said Richard Weissbourd,who conducted this study. The prejudice could hold girls back from succeeding.

The study shows only 8%of girls prefer female political leaders. Many tend to believe males have always led,so they have a preference for males' leading,which becomes one of their habits. What's more surprising is that even some mothers appear to be prejudiced,supporting school councils more led by men. The girls say that they feel threatened by boys' successes in school.

Rachel Simmons says these findings are amazing,but she's not really surprised by them. "Even today we've given girls every opportunity but our attitudes still have to change,"Simmons said. "We're still giving girls messages to look at each other as threats. Girls are not looking at each other for support,and they're also feeling so insecure about how they look."

Simmons offers ways to parents to help break these patterns of gender prejudice:

Research shows that chores(日常琐事)can be given to kids in really gendered ways. Change it at home. That's a big thing parents can do. Let boys do some care-giving because attitudes start very early and parents can help kids change them very early in the home. Another thing is to change the way we talk to our kids. If you have an outspoken girl,do you call her a bossy-boots,or do you say" I'm so glad you spoke up"?

We all have our own prejudice. I have a 3-year-old daughter and when she doesn't want to wear a dress, I get a little upset about it. Again, every parent has to look at their own prejudice. What toys are we buying for our kids? Are we buying girls the make-up kits and boys the science kits?

【小题1】What can we know about teen girls according to the study?
A.They begin to work hard to break the hidden barrier.
B.They fail in their study more often than teen boys.
C.They face a lot of prejudice from many sources.
D.They support each other in school life.
【小题2】According to the fourth paragraph, Rachel Simmons ______________.
A.takes the findings of the study seriously
B.agrees to give equal opportunity to every girl
C.believes that girls hate to seek support from others
D.insists that we adults are to blame for gender prejudice
【小题3】Which of the following ways cannot help change kids' gender prejudice?
A.Checking adults' own prejudice.
B.Treating them as adults.
C.Talking to them in a different way.
D.Changing the housework they do.
【小题4】What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.A hidden reason why girls suffer gender prejudice.
B.Gender prejudice from the parents.
C.Advice to those who have prejudice against girls.
D.The surprising findings of a study.

   "Which college are you going to?"Many high school students are often asked this question. For some,the answer is Harvard,Stanford,Princeton or another famous university. For others,it might be State U,a small liberal arts college or even a community college. Whether high school students' answer is a private top college or a large public university,it should be their best-fit choice.

Admission rates(录取率)of some of the country's top universities have been dropping for years up to now,with many admitting less than 10 percent of applicants. This makes these colleges all the more desirable to some applicants because they think being admitted to one of these highly selective colleges makes sure of success.

The truth is that the name brand doesn't make a college a good choice for you. Just ask one of the students who were admitted to all eight Ivy League colleges this year. He turned them all down to attend the University of Alabama,which best met his financial and academic needs.

Just like anything else in life,when something is a good fit,it works. Students that attend colleges that match their academic,social and financial needs,while still providing an academically challenging environment,are more likely to graduate on time. On the other hand,students who attend colleges that are not a good fit are more likely.to struggle,feel anxiety and stress,and fail to get out in four years. In fact,some of the colleges with the highest graduation rates aren't in the Ivy League.

It's a good fit that leads to good results — not the name of a school. Just look at some of the colleges with the highest starting salaries. Colleges like Montana Tech and Oregon Health & Science University are among the top 10 colleges with the highest early-career salaries-with Stanford and the Ivy Leagues only making the top 25.

No single college is going to be a great fit for every student,and this especially applies(适用)to the Ivy Leagues and other well-known colleges. That a college just has a famous name doesn't mean it's going to make sure of success in college or your career.

【小题1】What is suggested in the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?
A.Universities admit fewer and fewer students now.
B.It's more challenging for students to enter top universities now.
C.It's more challenging for top universities to admit students now.
D.Some universities can admit just 10% of the students they should do.
【小题2】What can we know from the passage?
A.State U is going to be among the famous universities.
B.Many students feel honored to be admitted to a highly selective college.
C.Something that is a good fit might not work well.
D.The Ivy Leagues have lost their positions compared with other colleges.
【小题3】Montana Tech is used as one of the examples to show that ________.
A.not-so-famous colleges can also bring high early-career salaries
B.many students attend it because it can bring them good results
C.no single college is going to be a great fit for every student
D.top colleges are able to provide more competitive graduates
【小题4】What does the author mainly want to show?
A.Well-known colleges are famous for some reasons.
B.Many students aren't good at choosing a college.
C.Students should go to colleges that fit them best.
D.Students should choose a college with high admission rates.
