can download "Google Wi-Fi" software and then enjoy free Wi-Fi service available in some US cities since
last Tuesday.
Wi-Fi is short for " Wireless Fidelity" (无线上网). It allows laptop computers (笔记本电脑) and personal
digital assistants (PDAs,个人数字助理) to connect to the Internet at high speed by radio signal.
A person with a Wi-Fi enabled computer can connect to the Internet when near one of the network"s
access points. The place covered by one or several access points is called a hotspot. Google has already set
up two"hotspots" in the US city of San Francisco which provide a free Wi-Fi service.
The Wi-Fi technology even allows users to enjoy a free Internet phone service. Some scientists argue that
Wi-Fi may replace mobile phone networks.
Wi Fi is still limited to a few cities, where there are"hotspots". But its capability (容量) of sending
information has already done better than that of the mobile phone network, even that of 3G(Third Generation
telecommunication technology). Some scientists have started to call Wi-Fi 4G.
In addition to a high speed Internet connection, Wi-Fi has other advantages com pared to mobile phones.
Wi-Fi is global. The same Wi-Fi system works in different countries around the world. Different from using
cell phones, you don"t need to change computers to use Internet phones when you go to other places and
most importantly, many Internet phones cost you nothing at all.
B. a radio
C. a hotspot
D. a cell phone
B. Many free Internet phones.
C. Using the same computers for Internet phones when you go to other places.
D. Used in all the US cities
B. it is more capable of sending information than the mobile phone network
C. it has been used by more than four generations
D. Wi-Fi will surely take the place of the mobile phone network
B. Free call Service
C. Google Launches Free Wi-Fi Service
D. Google, King of the Web

Or so I thought. However, the ability to queue for long periods of time, once believed to be a typical traditional
characteristic of the British, is no longer tolerated by people in the UK, according to a survey done by the
Payments Council. It would seem they are no longer prepared to wait in line.
[2] Once upon a time, queuing was seen as normal. During the second World War, everyone had to queue
up to receive their daily ration (配给) of foods. In fact, if you didn"t stand up and wait in line with all the others,
it was uncivilized (不文明).The famous English double-decker buses, with only one entrance, might also help
explain why queuing was seen as a part of life. Almost always, there is a queue to get on.
[3] But perhaps the British are tired of being pushed by the Spanish, the Italians or the French as they
queue up to get a table at a restaurant. The people of these other European countries have more than one
entrance to their buses, which could explain their more relaxed attitude to the queue.
[4] Two minutes is now the longest time most British are prepared to stand and wait. But could it be that
the Internet, which allows us to carry out tasks quickly, is the main reason why British people are no longer
prepared to queue? As the Internet has become more popular among shoppers, impatience with queuing has
increased.
[5] "Used to buying without delay, customers are even abandoning purchases rather than wait their turn,"
says Stuart Neal of Barclaycard. "Shoppers are also less likely to queue for longer if the item they are buying
is of low value." Perhaps I will have to replace "queuing" with"impatience" in my list of things I associate with
the British.

2. Which of the fol1owing can be replaced by the following one? In the past queuing was thought
to be a traditional feature of the British, but now they can"t stand it any more.

and selling. Not too many years ago, most industries concentrated primarily on the efficient production of
goods, and then relied on "persuasive salesmanship" to move as much of these goods as possible. Such
production and selling focuses on the needs of the seller to produce goods and then convert (使转换) them
into money.
Marketing, on the other hand, focuses on the wants of consumers. It begins with first analyzing the
preferences and demands of consumers and then producing goods that will satisfy them. This
eye-on-the-consumer approach is known as the marketing concept, which simply means that instead of trying
to sell whatever is easiest to produce, the makers and dealers first find out what the consumer wants to buy
and then go about making it available for purchase.
This concept does not imply that business is benevolent (慈善的) or that consumer satisfaction is given
priority over profit in a company. There are always two sides to every business transaction-the firm and the
customer-and each must be satisfied before trade occurs. Successful merchants and producers, however,
recognize that the surest route to profit is through understanding and catering to (迎合) customers. A striking
example of the importance of catering to the consumer presented itself in mid-1985, when Coca Cola changed
the flavor of its drink. The non-acceptance of the new flavor by a significant portion of the public brought
about a prompt restoration (恢复) of the Classic Coke, which was then marketed alongside the new.
B. making goods available for purchase
C. the customer-centered approach
D. a form of persuasive salesmanship
B. The efficiency of production.
C. The satisfaction of the user.
D. The preferences of the dealer.
B. to transport goods as efficiently as possible
C. to get rid of these goods in large quantities
D. to redesign these goods for large-scale production
B. It takes time for a new product to be accepted by the public.
C. Consumers with conservative tastes are often difficult to please.
D. Products must be designed to suit the taste of the consumer.
Life is like a game and maybe you can award (奖励) points for every effort that has been a success for you. Try it. Add ten points for every achievement. And when you have reached 50 points, just yell, "Hey, I"ve won!" and give yourself a reward. If you happen to have missed your points for whatever reasons, tell yourself,"well, I tried!" which is better than not trying at all. Don"t let it be said you didn"t try.
What is it that you want to make yourself happy? Actually happiness means different things to different people. For example, an athlete will be happy winning his first race. For a new mother happiness would be seeing her baby"s first steps. Happiness for a poor person would mean having a meal just for today. So happiness for you is really something simple that you want for yourself.
It really does not have to be big. As a matter of fact you should always have realistic expectations. Make the best out of every given situation. If you expect a certain result from a situation and it does not happen, don"t get despondent. This just means trying harder next time. We all have in us the power to succeed. Don"t let "give up" be a part of your vocabulary.
B. no one is perfect and everyone makes mistakes
C. mistakes and failures make up our life
D. human beings make mistakes easily.
B. Never stop trying in your life.
C. Award yourself for your success.
D. Don"t be afraid of missing your points
B. numbers
C. experiments
D. stories
B. disappointed
C. surprised
D. excited
of nurse, companion and security guard, will soon be in the market to look after the growing number of old
people with no one to look after them.
Cameras fixed under the "eyebrows" of the robot enable it to "see" as it moves around in a house. The
images can be sent to the latest mobile phones, which can show the pictures. Wakamaru speaks with either
the voice of a boy or a girl. It is also designed to provide companionship, saying hello to its "papa" when he
comes home. Based on a vocabulary of around 10,000 words, it is the first household robot which is able to
hold simple conversations. It can not only speak, but also understand answers and react accordingly. It will
ask "Are you all right?" if its owner doesn"t move for some time. If the answer is no, or there is no answer, it
will telephone preset numbers, send images and work as a speakerphone. It can recognize up to 10 faces and
be set to tell forgetful people when it is time to take medicine, eat and sleep.
However, like most robots, it cannot climb stairs. Mitsubishi developed Wakamaru from robots which have
already been made to go around nuclear power facilities."Looking at the ageing of society and the falling birth
rate we decided that this could work as a business. We want to offer it as a product that helps society,"said the
project chief. The developers plan to sell the robot from April this year at between5,000 and 6,000 pounds.
The life expectancy (寿命) of Japanese women has shot up to almost 85, the highest in the world. At the
same time, large families are being replaced by nuclear families. This has left many Japanese anxious about
their elderly parents. Therefore, the technology has gained nation-wide publicity in Japan.
B. solve the ageing problem
C. tell people the rapid development of technology
D. tell people how to use the robot
B. the robot is likely to have a promising market
C. the robot enables the Japanese to live longer
D. many elderly Japanese are anxious about their future
B. small families without a parent
C. families with children and old people
D. families with parents and their children only
B. Japanese Robot and the Ageing Society
C. Large Market of the New Robot
D. Japan-made Robot Helps the Old
1 Friends and mates allow us to enjoy our successes and our joys, comfort us in our hard moments,
and provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves. I"ve always looked at friends as the family we
choose. They enrich our lives. As Robert Louis Steven once said, " 2 "
To be a good friend or partner, it"s important to be a good listener. Hear what your friend or mate has
to say first rather than jump to conclusions or get defensive. 3 When they hear their words repeated
back to them, it can help them to realize what they said was not exactly what they meant to say.
4 You know the old golden rule,"Care for others the way you would like them to care for you." The
support of a friend during a tough time could make the difference between success and failure.
Encouragement and confidence are the gifts that can help change a person"s life.
Take care, though, with whom you choose to have close relationship, for they can have a great effect
on yourself-respect and life path. As someone once told me," 5 They will either take you up or down."
B. It is quite true.
C. Friendship is the most important factor.
D. Sometimes it is useful to be their mirror.
E. A friend is a present which you give yourself.
F. The attitudes of your friends are like the buttons on a lift.
G. Patience, sympathy and understanding are also important qualities.
