13.For most people,shopping is still a matter of wandering down the street or loading a cart in a shopping mall.Soon,that will change.Electronic commerce (trade) is growing fast and will soon bring people more choices.There will,however,be a cost:protecting the consumer from being cheated will be harder.Many governments therefore want to apply street regulations to the electronic world.But politicians would be wiser to see cyberspace as a basis or a new era of corporate self-regulation.
Consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything from the stability of the banks to the safety of the drugs or their rights to refund when goods are faulty.But governments cannot enforce national laws on businesses whose only presence is on the screen.Even in a country where a clear rght to compensation exists,the on-line customer in Tokyo,say,can hardly go to New York to get a refund (退款) for a clothes purchase.
One answer is for government to cooperate more:to recognize each other's rules.But that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules.And plenty of countries have rules too fanciful (稀有的) for sober countries to accept.There is,however,another choice.Let the electronic businesses do the regulation themselves.They do,after all,have a self-interest in doing so.
In electronic commerce,a reputation for honest dealing will be a valuable competitive asset.Governments,too,may compete to be trusted.For instance,customers ordering medicines on-line may prefer to buy from the United States because they trust the rigorous screening of the Food and Drug Administration; or they may decide that the FDA's  rules are too strict,and buy from Switzerland instea.
Customers will still need to use their judgment,but precisely because the technology is new,electronic shoppers are likely for a while to be a lot more cautious than customers of the normal sort.And the new technology will also make it easier for them to complain when a company lets them down.In this way,at least,the advent(出现) of cyberspace may argue for fewer consumer protection laws,not more.
32.In case an electronic shopper bought faulty goods from a foreign country,what could he do?D
A.Refuse to pay for the purchase.
B.Go to the seller and ask for a refund.
C.Appeal to consumer protection law.
D.Complain about it on the Internet.
33.In the author's view,businesses would place a high emphasis on honest dealing because in the electronic worldC.
A.international cooperation would be much more frequent
B.consumers could easily seek government protection
C.a good reputation is a great advantage in competition
D.it would be easy for consumers to complain
34.We can infer from the passage that in licensing new drugs the FDA in the United States isB.
A.very quick   
 B.very cautious     
C.very slow    
D.rather careless
35.According to the author,what will be the best policy for electronic commerce?A
A.Self-regulation by the business.
B.Strict Consumer protection laws.
C.Close international cooperation.
D.Government protection.

The second rich man,seeing the(4)B  situation,stopped for a short time and then decided to give the (5)A all his food and drink,since he could see that money would be of little (6)C to them.He made sure that they each (7)Dtheir fair share and would have enough food to (8)B for some time.Then,he left.

13.My name is Amanda LaMunyon.I have Asperger's syndrome,a form of autism (自闭症).I don't see myself as a person with a disability.I share who I am when I paint,sing and write.
       I started writing poetry because I wanted to tell people what it was like to have Asperger's syndrome.I don't know how my life would be different without Asperger's,but I know I look at the world differently than most people.I'm also learning that you don't have to be like everybody else.You just have to be confident in who you are.
       I discovered I could paint when I was 7.My math teacher Mrs.Brock loved one of my paintings so much that she hung it on the wall in her bedroom.I was so encouraged by her and since then my life has changed greatly.
       Soon after,people asked me to show my art for charity events.I began to donate prints of my work for charity auctions (拍卖).I was glad that I really made a difference.I learned that when you give,you receive happiness.
       I think it is very important for teens to express themselves.It's a way to know yourself more clearly.You can turn your thoughts and feelings into a piece of artwork or a poem.
       For example,when you paint,colors can help you express different emotions.When you write a poem,you have to get really honest with yourself and not be afraid to write down what you feel.
       Creativity makes you unique and sets you apart from others.Creative ideas also help you make your dreams come true.They help you look at things in a new way.
       I hope my story helps people to believe they can overcome their challenges and achieve their dreams.I like to encourage others.I know what encouragement has meant to me.
