You can shop for just about anything from your armchair. All you need is a computer which is linked to the Internet. People can shop for different kinds of products on the Internet. Physical products(产品) include items such as books, CDs, clothes and foods. You can also buy information products such as on-line news or magazine stories, or you can download computer software through the Internet. Services such as booking airline tickets, reserving(预订) hotels or renting cars are also available on the Internet. You can also go shopping on the Internet for entertainment services such as on-line games or e-mail “chats”.To find something on the Internet, people often use powerful computer tools called “search engines”. You can search for a type of product, such as sports shoes, or a brand name, such as Nike. The search engine will give you a list of websites where you can find these products. These websites may be specialist shops such as a Nike shop, or they may be general stores, called malls, which sell a variety of goods.The main disadvantage of Internet shopping is that you can not actually see the products you are buying or check their quality. Also, many people enjoy shopping in the city and miss the opportunity to talk to friends. Some people are worried about paying for goods using credit cards(信用卡), so Internet companies are now finding ways to make on-line payment safe.Internet shopping is sure to become more and more popular in the years ahead.

They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot，they are very angry about something.People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health．The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the 20th century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.Blue is a cool color. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite(相反的) of red hot music. Blues is slow and sad. Someone who is blue is very sad.The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural color for humans. A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green.A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. Blackouts were coming during World War II.81.

The passage is probably .A. a noticeB. an advertisementC. a posterD. a weekend planBAfter a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping makes it possible for your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your body relaxes little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, you will dream from time to time. Scientists who study sleep point out that when you are dreaming, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people suggest breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep.61. The text makes us know that not getting enough sleep might make you _________.A. suffer form poor healthB. enjoy moreC. dream more oftenD. breathe quickly62.

Work and Rest65. One of the ways to fall asleep easily is to _______________.A. breathe slowly and deeplyB. drink cold drinksC. get up and runD. look for some sheepCThe food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that 80 percent of all human illness are connected with diet and 40 percent of cancer is connected with the diet as well that food is connected with illness is not a new discovery. In the 1940s scientists realized that nitrates（硝酸盐）, which are often used to keep color of meat, and other additives（添加剂）caused cancer. However these additives remain in our food and it becomes more difficult to know which additives are helpful or harmful. Farmers sometimes give drugs to animals not because the animals are ill but because they want to sell the animals at higher prices. For example farmers try hard to make animals grow big so that they can sell the big animals for more money. Although the Food and Drug Administration has tried again and again to control farmers to do so, farmers go on doing this.66. According to the passage, what has science done to mankind?A.

I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and finally found an article on Time. com .For geography homework on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different, what states it runs through, and what kinds of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country influences its economy. For example, the river‟s trade paths, the number of fish caught in it and the tourists it attracts directly affect Southerners‟ jobs and incomes.I never go to the library to do research.
