Nowadays,a new way of shopping is attracting increasing customers:online group buying,also known as collective buying,which offers products and services at reduced prices on the condition that a minimum number of buyers would make the purchase.Origins of group buying can be traced to China where group buying or team buying was executed to get discount prices when a large group of people were willing to buy the same item.
China group buying business hit 1.74billion dollars in 2011,up 55% from the same period in 2010,according to a report.The report also shows that 2011was the year that the Chinese group-buying market got more and more concentrated with more and more Chinese,most of whom are white collars,teenagers and college students enjoying the benefits of group buying,and among most of favorable buying categories are restaurant,movie and hotel booking for traveling.
Through grouping buying,on one hand,customers get a lower price than normal.On the other hand,businessmen also cut down expense on marketing.That is the reason why group buying websites spring up like mushrooms in recent years.What is the most attractive in group buying must be the unbelieving discount.Facing the discount,customers always couldn't resist the impulse to buy the product,even though they don't need them.

解答 Possible version:
   The passage mainly introduces the origins of group buying and its benefits,which develops rapidly and becomes more and more popular in China,due to the great discount given to customers.
From my point of view,the advantages of group buying are obvious.For one thing,manufacturers can sell goods on a large scale and reduce marketing expense.For another,by cooperating with each other we shoppers can buy whatever we want without going out and get the most satisfactory goods at the lowest price.
Last week,I surfed a well-known group buying website for two film tickets.With only 30 yuan,I got the tickets as well as two bottles of green tea which saved me so much.It was a very nice experience.
As for suggestions for group buying,firstly,you should carefully read the advertisements and the comments from other customers.Secondly,buy with a clear purpose no matter how cheap it is.Thirdly,it is better to shop on famous and reliable websites to avoid being cheated by some cheating websites.

3.I grew up in London,a place where there are so many people of different nationalities and races.So when I left London to start university,it came as a surprise that the student community was so divided.Chinese students,especially,stood apart.They cooked Chinese food every day and only socialized with their Chinese friends.
At first I wondered"Why are Chinese students so eager to come to the UK,yet not willing to make friends with the local students and learn about their culture?"
But then I studied in China for a year,and I realized that all the foreign students there behaved in exactly the same way.They ate in foreign restaurants and only socialized with students from their own countries.It was a shock.Why were so many foreigners going to China if they didn't want to meet local people and learn about their culture?
Our natural instinct (本能) when we move abroad into an unfamiliar environment is to seek out the things we know and distance ourselves from those we don't.So we look for friends of the same nationality or race,and eat the food from our home country.
I was not different from other foreign students in the beginning,but I tried to change.So every day I played basketball with my Chinese peers after class,I had meals with them in the campus canteen and I joined a band with other Asian students.
Those are probably the three best ways to make friends when there is a risk of language or cultural barriers getting in the way:play together,embrace (欣然接受) each other's food and share your passions.

A.there were so many Chinese students studying in the UK
B.it was difficult to find a suitable student community

A.they want to stick to what they know
B.they look for the things they know and keep themselves away from those they don't

5.The Enigma(谜)of Beauty
The search for beauty spans centuries and continents.Paintings of Egyptians dating back over 4,000years show both men and women painting their nails and wearing makeup.In 18th-century France,wealthy noblemen wore large wigs (假发) of long,white hair to make themselves attractive.Today,people continue to devote a lot of time and money to their appearance.
There is at least one good reason for the desire to be attractive:beauty is power.Studies suggest that good-looking people make more money,get called on more often in class,and are regarded as friendlier.
But what exactly is beauty?It's difficult to describe it clearly,and yet we know it when we see it.And our awareness of it may start at a very early age.In one set of studies,six-month-old babies were shown a series of photographs.The faces on the pictures had been rated for attractiveness by a group of college students.In the studies,the babies spent more time looking at the attractive faces than the unattractive ones.
The idea that even babies can judge appearance makes perfect sense to many researchers.In studies by psychologists,men consistently showed a preference for women with larger eyes,fuller lips,and a smaller nose and chin while women prefer men with large shoulders and a narrow waist.According to scientists,the mind unconsciously tells men and women that these traits-the full lips,clear skin,strong shoulders-equal health and genetic well-being.
Not everyone thinks the same way,however."Our hardwiredness can be changed by all sorts of expectations-mostly cultural,"says C.Loring Brace,an anthropologist at the University of Michigan.What is considered attractive in one culture might not be in another.Look at most Western fashion magazines:the women on the pages are thin.But is this"perfect"body type for women worldwide?Scientists'answer is no; what is considered beautiful is subjective and varies around the world.They found native peoples in southeast Peru preferred shapes regarded overweight in Western cultures.
For better or worse,beauty plays a role in our lives.But it is extremely difficult to describe exactly what makes one person attractive to another.Although there do seem to be certain physical traits considered universally appealing,it is also true that beauty does not always keep to a single,uniform standard.Beauty really is,as the saying goes,in the eye of the beholder.

47.People's ideas about beautyA.
A.have existed since ancient times
B.can be easily described
C.have little influence on a person's success
D.are based upon strict criteria

A.were rated for their appearance
B.were entered in a beauty contest
C.were shown photos of a group of college students
D.were able to tell attractive faces from unattractive ones
49.The underlined word"traits"in Paragraph 4probably meansA.
A.qualities   B.measurements   C.judgments   D.standards

2.Do you think getting cold can give you a cold?Is it bad to drink milk when you have a cold?Can chicken soup cure a cold?
Ranit Mishori is a family medicine doctor at Georgetown University Medical Center in Washington.She says colds are more common in winter,but not because of low temperatures.The cold weather just means people stay inside more.
Ranit Mishori:"People tend to congregate and be together and the way the common cold virus is transmitted from one person to another is through handshakes,through sneezing,or coughing on one another."
Adults generally get two to three colds a year.Children are likely to catch four or five.Dr.Mishori says some people mistakenly believe they can become resistant to colds.
Ranit Mishori:"There are about two hundred different viruses that cause the common cold.People think that once you get infected one time you develop immunity for the rest of your life.This is wrong."
There is still no cure for the common cold.But Dr.Mishori says there are ways to feel better sooner.
Ranit Mishori:"So if you get a cold and on day one and you start taking about two grams of vitamin C a day,there is evidence that it might shorten the number of days that you will be suffering with these symptoms."
She says honey can also help."There is increased evidence that it helps shorten the duration of the common cold sometimes even by two to three days."
Dr.Mishori says honey seems to be especially effective in children with colds.But the Agriculture Department says never to feed honey to babies less than one year old.It says even honey in prepared foods may contain substances that can make babies very sick.
Some people believe in treating a cold with chicken soup.Does it work?
Ranit Mishori:"Chicken soup has anti-inflammatory properties,so it helps reduce the duration of the cold but also it helps clear the mucus."Mucus is the sticky substance that can make you cough and have trouble breathing during a cold.
Ranit Mishori:"But you have to drink a lot and you can drink water or you can drink tea--anything that gets fluids into your body.That's very important."
But what about drinking milk during a cold?Some people think it only causes more mucus.Dr.Mishori says yes and no.
Ranit Mishori:"Dairy products do not cause increased secretions,but they can thicken the secretions.So it's possible that discomfort is somewhat more enhanced when you drink milk.But obviously,if you're a baby and that's all you drink,you should not stop giving babies milk."

57.The passage is mainly aboutD.
A.the ways to cure the common colds
B.the symptoms of the common colds
C.the causes of the common colds
D.the knowledge related to the common colds.
