【解析】这是一篇议论文。主要论述了发展旅游与保护当地居民权益之间会存在一些问题。

1推理判断题。文章一开始就讲到了如果没有适当的计划,旅游业可能面临一些问题。与前文从正反两方面来论述。因此可以断定选文前的一段应该是从正面论述的。所以选D。

2细节理解题。文章提到了旅游业应促进旅游地当地人习俗的保持,暗含现在可能是改变或破坏了他们的习俗,但是并未提到会改变游客的习俗问题,因此正确答案为B项。

3推理判断题。可利用排除法,也可直接根据“They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy,”一句推断得出结论。所以选B。

4推理判断题。由全文可知,A、B、C三项明显不符合旅游业的好处,也违背了常理,因此正确答案为D项。

【题目】Shopping in the United States changes a lot. About ninety years ago most people shopped in small stores that were owned by one person or a family. Women went from the bakery to the butcher's to the grocer and on to the fruit and vegetable seller in order to get their food for the week.

Then about sixty years ago, supermarkets were born. In a supermarket, people could get all the different kinds of food they needed without going to different stores.

The next big change in shopping in the United States was the shopping mall. A shopping mall is a group of stores under one roof. Because malls allowed people to shop without worrying about the weather, they soon became very popular. The mall became a place for people to socialize in addition to shopping. If you walk through a mall, you will see older people sitting, chatting and drinking coffee. Malls are places for teenagers to hang out. Many teens will often just“go to the mall”and spend time with their friends.

The recent change in American shopping was the superstore. Large chain stores such as WalMart, Office Depot and Toys“R”Us have been built all across the United States. Because they are so large, they can buy goods at a great discount and sell them much cheaper than smaller stores.

Sometimes, when they are built near small towns, many of the small town stores have to close. They just cannot compete with their giant neighbors.

And now, online shopping is becoming more and more popular all over the States. People are too busy to go to the physical stores, so they go shopping over the Internet. Online shopping has lots of advantages. For instance, online stores are usually available 24 hours a day. Searching or browsing online shops can be faster than browsing the physical stores. While, online shopping also has its disadvantages. People are at higher risk of being cheated on the part of the merchant than in a physical store. And privacy of personal information may be let out.

B. Because they are across the United States.

C. Because they sell all kinds of products people need.

D. Because they can buy goods at a reduction in the prices.

4What's the disadvantage of online shopping according to the passage?

【题目】There was a story many years ago of a school teacher—Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie.

Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother’s perfume(香水).

Teddy said, “Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.” After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children.
