(2018·银川二中高考模拟)Alibaba started taking the lead in China by connecting
big Chinese manufacturers (制造商) with big buyers across the world.Its business­to­business site, allowed businesses to buy almost everything.Alibaba's advantage wasn't hard to judge: size.Alibaba is just big, even by Chinese standards.Its market attracts about 231 million active buyers, 8 million sellers,
11.3 billion orders a year — and Alibaba is just the
middleman.It encourages people to use its markets —not
charging small sellers a percentage of the sale.
If you want a quick look into the influence of Alibaba on Chinese daily life, take my experience.I moved to Beijing a year ago and quickly got tired of visiting small stores across the crowded, polluted city of 20 million people in search of new electronics, bathroom furnishings, and anything else my wife wanted.“You're looking for what exactly?Why not try it?” my Chinese teacher asked me one day.With that, my wonderful new relationship with Alibaba began.
Alibaba's original business­to­business model now is second to consumer buying.Chinese retail (零售) buying makes up 80% of Alibaba's profit, and leading that group is Taobao, with 800 million items for sale and the most unbelievable selection of things you'll never find. is Alibaba's another big site, where you can find brand­name goods from Nike to Unilever almost at the lowest prices.
What I have a hard time explaining to friends and family back in the U.S. is how China has gone beyond traditional shopping —big­box retailers especially —in favor of online purchases on Taobao and a few other sites.In smaller towns than Beijing, Taobao will be the first choice when shopping online.
I have a list of some of my recent purchases on Taobao for a sense of how wide the marketplace is.Almost everything arrived a day or two after ordering with free shipping.I'm not even a big buyer, because I need friends to help me search the Chinese­langua ge site.When I was searching my purchase history on my Chinese teacher's iPad, which helps me buy goods, I looked through with great difficulty about 10 of her purchases for every one of mine.
A.its low price
B.its not charging small sellers
C.its big size
D.its business­to­business service
解析:选C 细节理解题。

由第一段第三、四句“Alibaba's advantage wasn't hard to judge: size.Alibaba is just big, even by Chinese standards.”可知,阿里巴巴的优势就在于规模大。

故选C项。

25.We know from the passage that Alibaba ________.
A.acts as a bridge between the buyers and sellers
B.charges small sellers on its site a percentage of the sale
C.sells everything you want online
D.has taken the place of traditional stores
解析:选A推理判断题。

由第一段第一句“... by connecting big Chinese manufacturers (制造商) with big buyers across the world.”可知,阿里巴巴的运营模式是将制造商与买家联系起来,由此推断出阿里巴巴起到了桥梁的作用,故选A项。

由第一段最后一句“... not charging small sellers a percentage of the sale.”可排除B 项;由第一段第二句中的“almost everything”可排除C项;D项在文中未提及。

26.What can be inferred from the last 3 paragraphs?
A.Taobao sells millions of items with the lowest price.
B.Alibaba's profit mainly consists of Chinese retail buying.
C. is more popular than Taobao.
D.The author can purchase items on Taobao without any difficulty now.
解析:选B 推理判断题。

由第三段第二句“Chinese retail (零售) buying makes up 80% of Alibaba's profit ...”可知,中国人的零售购买占了阿里巴巴利润的80%,故选B 项。

27.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Taobao, the best choice for shopping online in China.
B.Alibaba influences people's daily purchase in China.
C.Shopping online goes beyond traditional shopping in China.
D.How the author learns to purchase online in China.
解析:选B 主旨大意题。

Stephen Hawking Warns Humans
Must Leave Earth Soon
Professor Stephen Hawking recently came out with a serious warning for people. While at the Starmus Festival, a festival in Trondheim, Norway, celebrating science and the arts, Hawking warned people that the human race is in serious danger.
Hawking criticized President Donald Trump for denying
climate change. Then the physicist warned the audience, “I am
not denying the importance of fighting climate change and global
warming, unlike Donald Trump, who may just have taken the most
ser ious and wrong decision on climate change this world has seen.”
Hawking proposed that the leading countries should send astronauts to the Moon before 2020 to restart a movement of more exploration in space. The BBC reported that Hawking suggested that we “build a lunar base in 30 years' time and send people to Mars by 2025”.
According to the BBC, Professor Hawking said, “Spreading out into space will completely change the future of humanity.” He continued, “I hope it would unite competitive nations in a single goal to face the common challenge for us all.” The physicist shared more ideas to motivate the younger generation to continue exploring space. Hawking stated, “A new and ambitious space program would excite (young people), and stimulate interest in other areas, such as astrophysics (天体物理学) and cosmology (宇宙学).”
Hawking also revealed his vision of other forms of energy that could move us to a new planet. He warned the audience, “The Earth is under threat from so many areas that it is difficult for me to be positive.” He continued, “Our natural resources are being drained at an alarming rate. We have given our planet the disastrous gifts of climate change, rising temperatures, reduction of the polar ice caps, deforestation (滥伐森林), and decimation (大批杀死) of animal species. We can be an ignorant and unthinking (考虑不周的) lot.”
The professor warned the audience that doing nothing would lead nowhere. He said, “If we succeed we will send a probe (航天探测器) to Alpha Centauri within the lifetime of some of you alive today. It is clear that we are entering a new space age. We are standing at the threshold (开端) of a new era.

Living among trees, plants and flowers can fill your life with beauty. And if you are a woman, it can also help you live longer.
Women who live in homes surrounded by plants appear to have lower death rates than women who live in areas with less green plants, according to a research.
Peter James and his team looked at information from one of
the largest and oldest investigations of women's health: the
Nurses' Health Study.
For the new study, the team looked at the death rates of more than 100,000 women between the years 2008 and 2015. Then the researchers compared the death rates of these women to the green plants around their homes. To determine the amount of trees and other vegetation (植被), researchers examined satellite images.
To make it more believable, the researchers considered other risk factors —things such as the age of the women, their economic status, and race. They also looked at whether or not the women smoked.
Peter James says he and his team were surprised to find such a strong link between high vegetation levels and low death rates. He adds they were also surprised to find how high levels of plant life can affect a woman's mental health.
The study suggests that living among vegetation lowered levels of depression. Researchers say women in greener areas spent more time with other people, exercised more and were less exposed to air pollution.
One of the biggest effects of greenery appeared to be a lowered risk of cancer. Here are some numbers. The study found that women living in the greenest areas had a 13 percent lower rate of dying from cancer.
James says that it is common knowledge that vegetation helps the environment in many ways. But, he adds, the new findings suggest ways for city planners, landscape architects and policymakers to grow even healthier living areas.
A.To introduce the green environment and call on people to enjoy it.
B.To show women living in green areas are more likely to live long.
C.To show the relationship between animals and plants.
D.To give some tips on how to live long.
解析:选B 写作目的题。

文章第一段引出话题,第二段提出本文的主题——女性若住在四处环绕植物的地方,死亡率会较低,下文对此话题展开说明,并详细介绍了该研究是如何进行的。

·Be seen without trying to get attention.
__36__ All you have to do is place yourself in environments where people will see you. This can be done anywhere you go, such as the supermarket or your yoga studio.
·Use the power of listening.
