A

I have been using the Internet since I was five years old, when my dad first sat me down in front of a computer and connected me to the World Wide Web.

I've always felt like a master of the Internet world.  MSN, Gmail, Facebook, Myspace―I've got it all under control. I thought there was noth?ing more to it besides checking my e-mail and wasting my time, until I was introduced to electronic commerce(e-commerce) ： business on the Internet.

Some online businesses are run from one-room home offices. Others have hundreds of employees across the world. Have you ever heard of Ama?zon, com, Yahoo, com?

My friends often said they got cheap textbooks on Amazon, com, or had a good deal (交易)on Steve Madden shoes that were on sale at Steve Mad?den, com. Unfortunately for me, I continued my "e-commerceless" Web surfing, not knowing about all the deals I was missing out on.

That is, of course, until my sister finally told the idea to me.

"Why are all these packages arriving in the mail for you, Katy?"I asked her one day. Strange envelopes (信封)had been put on our doorstep for weeks now, each one always addressed to my sister; and we all know little sisters should never be getting more mail than their elders!

"Oh, it's the things I ordered online ！ ，， she answered. I watched speechlessly as she opened them. There was no way our parents were let?ting her spend that much money―online or off!

"How much did all of these cost?"

"Oh, only about $ 15 in all！"she said excitedly. "Everything on eBay is on sale! It's a way better than going to the store."

I felt as if there had been a store right in my backyard that I had never walked into! That week, I ordered a used Spanish textbook for my summer course online for 10 per cent of the publishing price. A few days later, I bought an iPod protector and a book via the wonderful eBay. com.

Answer 1

第一部分第一节 A

[文章大意]本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者逐渐了解网络购物的故事。作者从5岁开始接触电脑，精通各种网上操作，但是他不了解电子商务。直到有一天，他发现他的妹妹经常收到包裹，这比他收到的多得多，原来妹妹经常在网上购物，并且价格要便宜很多。最后他也开始在网上购物。

1.  B 推理判断题。由第二段最后一句"I thought there was nothing more to it be?sides checking my e-mail and wasting my time, until I was introduced to electronic commerce(e-commerce) ： business on the Internet."可知"我"以为上网除了査收邮件和浪费时间就没有其他的功能了，直到"我"开始了解电子商务，"我"才发现上网的其他功能。故选B。

2.  C 细节理解题。由倒数第二段"'Oh, only about $ 15 in all!'she said excited?ly. 'Everything on eBay is on sale！ It's a way better than going to the store.'"可知，作者的妹妹解释了包裹的来源.作者开始了解网购。故选C。

3.  D 推理判断题。由"That week, I ordered a used Spanish textbook for my sum?mer course online for 10 per cent of the publishing price. A few days later, I bought an iPod protector and a book via the wonderful eBay. com."可知,作者开始在网上购物并且很享受网购的乐趣。故选D。

4. A 写作意图题。本文主要讲述了作者从对网购一无所知到尝试网购的过程. 所以A选项最合适。故选A。
