2．There are many people you are well advised to treat kindly：Your child's teacher，your husband or wife，your boss and so on．
Until now，that best-behavior-required list has not included your Uber driver，or for that matter，taxi drivers．Old thinking：Hey，they're here to serve me．I don't have to make a special effort to be nice to them．
Dangerously wrong．
A recent New York Times story told the instructive tale of a Uber passenger，Hussein Kanji，who says he's really not sure how he made his driver angry．All he knows is that his driver-generated rating went way down and the wait for a Uber car became hours instead of minutes．
Beware，Uberians：If you're feeling angry when you slide into the back seat and you give your driver the silent treatment，your reputation may get damaged in the driver-generated ratings．If you're among the people one Uber driver described as"generally negative"，watch out．
Uber isn't the only front on this battlefield．The ability to rate someone's service is one of the successes of the Internet．It helps everyone weed out people with bad attitudes and worse habits．
These ratings should cut both ways．A while back，the auction site eBay made many of its sellers angry when it started preventing them from giving negative ratings to buyers．Until then，sellers and buyers had threatened each other with negative reviews．Too many negative reviews could get you thrown off．
Then eBay shifted the balance of power to buyers．Sellers can still write a bad comment，but the overall rating cannot be anything but positive．Thus eBay has become a place where all is for the best．Think positive!
We know that being nice to people all day can be exhausting．We've also seen people who shout at those who don't measure up to their expectations for service．
Uber is reportedly about to spread worldwide．It is a welcome competitor because it fits the needs of customers in a new way．We know Uber is a two-way street．But drivers who get too picky may end up with no passengers．
Everyone，behave!
41．In general，people think of Uber drivers as people whoB．
A．they can take advantage of
B．they don't have to be nice to
C．are required to be on their best behavior
D．need better treatment from customers
42．Negative driver-generated ratings mean thatA．
A．customers have to wait for a longer time when using Uber cars
B．drivers are too slow to pick up customers
C．Uber drivers will never serve those customers
D．customers have done damage to Uber cars
43．The phrase"weed out"（Para.6）can best be replaced byB．
A．hate            
B．get rid of          
C．value           
D．win back
44．The example of eBay in the article is probably meant to show thatB．
A．in the Internet age，buyers have always had the advantage of ratings
B．the power of ratings should be given to both sides of a service
C．the main reason why eBay has become a successful auction site
D．controversy between customers and sellers has only come about recently
45．The author has written this article toD．
A．show that when using services like Uber，your behavior directly affects the service you get
B．prove that giving and receiving bad ratings can influence your life
C．suggest that tools like Uber and eBay can reflect what kind of person you are
D．stress that both customers and service providers should be generally respectful and positive．
6．Etymology，the study of words and word roots，may sound like the kind of thing done by boring librarians in small，dusty rooms．Yet etymologists actually have a uniquely interesting job．They are in many ways just like archaeologists digging up the physical history of people and events．The special aspect of etymology is that it digs up history，so to speak，through the words and phrases that are left behind．
The English language，in particular，is a great field to explore history through words．As a language，English has an extraordinary number of words．This is partly due to its ability to  adapt foreign words so readily．For example，"English"words such as kindergarten （from German），croissan （from French），and cheetah （from Hindi） have become part of the language with little or no change from their original sounds and spellings．So English-language etymologists have a vast world of words to explore．
Another enjoyable thing about etymology for most word experts is solving word mysteries．No，etymologists do not go around solving murders，like the great detective Sherlock Holmes．What these word experts solve are mysterious origins of some of our most common words
One of the biggest questions English language experts have  pursued is how English came to have the phrase OK．Though it is one of the most commonly used expressions，its exact beginning is a puzzle even to this day．Even its spelling is not entirely consistent-unless you spell it Okay，it is hard even to call it a word．
Etymologists have been able to narrow OK's origin down to a likely，although not certain，source．It became widely used around the time of Martin Van Buren's run for president in 1840．His nickname was Old Kinderhook．What troubles word experts about this explanation is that the phrase appeared in some newspapers before Van Buren became well known．It is likely that Van Buren could be called its primary source Etymologists will doubtlessly keep searching for the initial source．However，it is clear that OK's popularity and reputation have topped those of the American president to whom it has been most clearly linked．
63．The author mentions the words like"croissant"in Paragraph 2to indicateA．
A．English has absorbed many words from other foreign languages
B．what English-language etymologists are exploring now
C．words have changed a lot in the two languages
D．the English vocabulary is difficult to the non-English-speaking people
64．The underlined word"pursued"in Paragraph 4meansC．
A．looked upon     
B．put in 
C．dug up  
D．set down
65．We can learn from the passage that etymologistsD．
A．explore the English language as well as the recent events
B．help detectives to solve mysterious murders
C．write interesting stories for some newspapers
D．discover the possible origin of words
66．What is the main purpose of the passage？B
A．To present the history of English words．
B．To introduce the pleasure of the study of words and word roots．
C．To explain the procedure of an etymologist's job．
D．To teach readers how to distinguish English and non-English words．
7．She always donates a lot of money to the children in poor areas and asked for nothing ______．（　　）
