8．What is the first thing you notice when you walk into a shop？The products displayed（展示）at  the entrance？Or the soft background music？
But have you ever noticed the smell？Unless it is bad，the answer is likely to be no．But while a shop's scent may not be outstanding compared with sights and sounds，it is certainly there．And it is providing to be an increasing powerful tool in encouraging people to purchase．
A brand store has become famous for its distinctive scent which floats through the fairly dark hall and out to the entrance via scent machines．A smell may be attractive but it may not just be used for freshening air．One sports goods company once reported that when it first introduced scent into its stores，customers'intension to purchase increased by 80percent．
When it comes to the best shopping streets in Pairs，scent is just as important to a brand's success as the quality of its window displays and goods on sales．That is mainly because shopping is a very different experience to what it used to be．
Some years ago，the focus for brand name shopping was on a few people with sales  assistants'disproving attitude and don't-touch-what-you-can't-afford displays．Now the rise of electronic commerce（e-commerce）has opened up famous brands to a wider audience．But while e-shops can use sights and sounds，only bricks-and-mortar stores（实体店）can offer a full experience from the minute customers step through the door to the moment they leave．Another brand store seeks to be much more than a shop，but rather a destination．And scent is just one way to achieve this．
Now a famous store uses complex man-made smell to make sure that the soft scent of baby powder floats through the kid department，and coconut（椰子）scent in the swimsuit section．A department store has even opened a new lab，inviting customers on a journey into the store's windows to smell books，pots and drawers，in search of their perfect scent．

32．According to the passage，what is an increasingly powerful tool in the success of some brand store？C

D．introduce the rise of e-commerce
34．The underlined word"destination"in Paragraph 5meansA．
A．a place where customers love to go
B．a spot where travelers like to stay
C．a platform that exhibits goods

5．Bill was doing a lot of physical exercise to builcl up his______．（　　）

12．A few days ago we---that's me and the husband---took a taxi to the station．Chat with the driver fell to the wrong of cyclists，and the misunderstanding of the road rules．So far as the rules of the road go，there seems to be one basic principle：when you are driving a car you hate bikes，when you are riding a bike you hate cars （and I guess walkers hate everyone）．
There is an obvious difference of viewpoint built in here．It wasn't until I started to drive a car （almost 20years after I had first ridden a bike） that I actually realized that you could not see a cyclist at night without lights．In fact I now want to shout at late night cyclists without lights （like motorists once did at me）："You'll get killed，I can't see you．"
The problem is that cyclists do ride headlong into danger．It's not just not having lights．It's biking on pavements （and so threatening to injure a load of innocent walkers in the process） and biking down one-way streets the wrong way．
I admit that I do bike the wrong way down a one-way street several times．My feeble（软弱无力） defense is that I try always to do it as if I know I was doing wrong．That is slowly，with an apologetic look on the face，and ready to get off at any minute．I can't bear the guys（一伙人）（usually，but not always it is guys） who do it as if they owned the place，and at high speed．
So cyclists are not entirely innocent．But they are among the disadvantaged groups，because the bottom line is that a car or a lorry can kill a cyclist and not the other way around．
49．When did the writer realize the danger for late night cyclists without lights？A
A．Not until she became a driver herself．
B．Not until she had driven a car for 20years．
C．After she was shouted at by a motorist．
D．After she was once knocked down by a group of guys．
50．When the writer biked the wrong way down a one-way street，she feltB．
A．angry
B．guilty
C．innocent
D．proud
51．What can we learn about the writer？C
A．She often took a taxi with her husband．
B．She has been a motorist for over 20years．
C．She used to ride a bike without lights at night．
D．She often likes to bike the wrong way down a one-way street．

2．Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature．However，whether you are on the mountains，in the waves，or on the grassland，you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment．
Some sports are resource-hungry．Golf，as you may know，eats up not only large areas of countryside，but also tons of water．Besides，all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses（球场）in good condition．This causes major environmental effects．For example，in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain，golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas．
There are many environment-friendly sports．Power walking is one of them that you could take up today．You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes； and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse．Simple and free，power walking can also keep you fit．If you walk regularly，it will be good for your heart and bones．Experts say that 20minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious，sleep well and have better weight control．
Whatever sport you take up，you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from reused materials．But the final goal should be"green gyms"．They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers．Members of green gyms play sports outdoors，in the countryside or other open spaces．There is no special requirement for you to start your membership．And best of all，it's free．

9．"Happiness Shared"was title of an e-mail I received from a website that I really enjoyed．It inspired me to contacting two friends and invite him over for a craft day．I was excited about sharing craft ideas and baking cookies with friend!Then one friend sent me a message saying that she was depressing and thought she should not come，so she would only bring us down．I sent her a quote what inspires me when I'm upset．It is，"Think about how you want to feel and do whatever it takes to make it to happen．"Finally，she comes and we had a great day．It is so nicely to have someone to share your day with!

6．Are you a dog person or a cat person？
With so many photos and videos of cats and dogs doing cute things online，it's easier than ever to answer which of these furry friends you like more．There are many reasons why people prefer one type of pet over the other．So，have you ever wondered what your preference for cats or dogs says about you？
In fact，a 2010study done by Sam Gosling，a psychologist at the University of Texas，US，and his graduate student Carson Sandy found that dog people are more extroverted （外向的），agreeable and conscientious （认真的） than cat people．
"Cats will occasionally engage in social activities，but usually after only a few minutes they will give up the game．Dogs，on the other hand，will often engage in play，like fetching a thrown ball，for hours at a time，"said Modern Dog magazine．
Just on the basis of dogs'nature being more sociable than cats'，you may expect that the personalities of dog people also reflect higher sociability．And Gosling's study found that dog people are generally about 15percent more extroverted and 13percent more agreeable，both of which are associated with social orientation （倾向）．
In addition，dog people are 11percent more conscientious than cat people．"Conscientiousness"is a tendency to show self-discipline，to complete tasks and aim for achievement．This trait also shows a preference for planned rather than spontaneous （一时冲动的） behavior．
In comparison，cat people are about 12percent more anxious，but they are also 11percent more"open"than dog people，due to a general appreciation for art，emotion，imagination，curiosity，adventure，unusual ideas and variety of experience．And people high on openness are more likely to hold unconventional beliefs．
Despite so many differences，there are some things that cat people and dog people have in common．"Both types of people consider themselves close to nature，dislike animal-print clothing and generally look on the better side of life，"noted Mother Nature Network．
21．What does the article mainly talk about？D
A．Differences between dogs and cats in their personality traits．
B．Factors that influence people's preference for dogs or cats．
