January 13, 2010 SHANGHAI - If Google leaves China, the country will suddenly become even more dependent on its main homegrown search engine, Baidu.com. And while that is likely to benefit the Chinese company in the near term, analysts say it could do no good to the long-term development of the Internet in China.

   71   , The company has 300 million users, and it is the market in China, with a commanding 63 percent share to Google’s 33 percent, according to iResearch, a consulting firm

One reason for Baidu’s leading position is its close following the nation’s tight Internet regulations and its censorship(审查) of Internet content.   72   .

“Baidu keeps a great relationship with the government,”says an advisor at 5G, a consulting firm “If the government wants something removed, Baidu will do it immediately.   73    .”

That, under local control, might be why Google never closed the market share gap with Baidu.   

   74   , while Baidu insisted that they knew what Chinese users wanted.

      Now, Google is suggesting that it may follow Yahoo and Ebay and actually disappear from a country that has the world’s largest Internet population-estimated to be 338 million users.“  75   

  ”says Yu Yang, chief of Analysts International, a Beijing-based research firm. “As for Baidu, without competition with Google, Baidu has no motivation to create.”

A．Baidu did not comment Wednesday on Google’s announcement

B．Baidu obeyed the government’s regulations, but Google did not like to, experts say

C．On the other hand, everything with Google has to go through is headquarters(总部)

D．Baidu doesn’t become famous overnight

E．Google claimed they had the better technology

F．The Internet is always playing an important role in China

PAUL’S brother bought him a new car as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve (前夜), Paul saw a boy walking around the new car, admiring it.

"Is this your car, Mister?" he asked.

Paul nodded. "My brother gave it to me for Christmas." The boy was amazed. "You mean your brother just gave it to you? Boy, I wish...." Paul knew what he was going to wish for — a brother who would buy him a car. But the boy surprised Paul.

"I wish that I could be a brother like that," he said.

Astonished, Paul invited the boy to go for a ride in the new car.

Football, to me, is more than just a game. I have probably learned more than valuable lessons from it than from school.

When I joined the team freshman year, I didn’t realize what I was getting into. Even though I had been playing since fourth grade and knew it was hard work, nothing would prepare me for the effort I would put into football that year. We worked all summer in the weight room and ran on the track to get in physical and mental shape before the season.

See, football is more of a mental sport than anything else, so running on the track wasn’t only about getting in shape. We would push our minds by running as hard as we could even if we felt like we were going to pass out. At the beginning, I was immature (幼稚的) and only thought of myself, sometimes even giving up when I was tired or hurting. Then after the third game I had a season-ending injury. Imagine working all summer and then only being able to play three games! I needed an operation on my arm and at least five months to recover.

After freshman year I decided that I would always give my best effort. Playing football in the college has taught me so much more than just what my tasks are on a particular play or how to block. I have learned to think about others first, and realized how important working hard is. Being with all my friends, even sweating and bleeding with them, really made us unite as a group of hard-working young men, who will succeed in life.

A．the author joined the football team with a clear aim.

C．the author worked all summer to get ready for the season.

D．the author never lost heart when he met with difficulties.

Hong Kong, major commercial center for Asia, and with a population which has grown at an alarming rate to over 5 million, is a city highly dependent on mass (大量的, 大规模的) transit of all sorts, both local and long distance. An ordinary Hong Kong worker or businessman, going about his daily activities, simply must use transportation at one time or another.    

Because Hong Kong is in two parts, Kowloon, on the mainland side, and Hong Kong, the island, with Hong Kong's harbor in between Hong Kong's mass transit systems, in addition to going over land they must also cross water.    

Going from home to work, or going shopping from one side of the harbor to the other, the Hong Kong resident has three choices. One way is to take a bus which will cross the harbor through an under water traffic tunnel moving slowly through bumper- to-bumper (一辆接一辆) traffic．Another way is by ferry boat , a pleasant ride which crosses the harbor in from seven to fifteen  minutes.    

But by far the fastest way of crossing the harbor is the newly built underground electric railway, the Hong Kong Metro(地铁). If one gets on the train in the Central District,the commercial area of Hong Kong on the island side, he can speed across the harbor in an astonishing three minutes. On the other side of the harbor the railway continues, snaking back and forth through the outlying districts of Kowloon, allowing one to get off a short distance from his destination.    

       The story of the Metro is an encouraging one for supporters of mass transit. Although building the system was certainly a challenging task, the Japanese firm hired to construct it did so in record time. Construction got underway in 1979 and it was completed in 1980.    

       For the average commuter (一般持月票往返两地的乘客) the system has only one disadvantage; it is more expensive than by bus or ferry. One can ride the bus across the harbor for half as much or he can ride the ferry across for less than one-fifth as much.

60．Hong Kong public transportation extends ________.

     A．over hills and valleys             B．across land and water   

     C．through mountains               D．throughout the Kowloon area

61．Crossing the harbor by train is ________. 

     A．by far the most economical methods

B．the most pleasant method   

     C．the least pleasant method         

D．the fastest method

62．The business area on the island side of Hong Kong is referred to as ________.  

     A．Kowloon                          B．the Central District   

     C．the Hong Kong Metro       D．downtown Hong Kong

63．The underground railway ________.   

     A．winds through Kowloon          B．ends when it reaches Kowloon   

C．snakes across the harbor     D．circles Kowloon
