1.When I first started using Chinese websites,I was a bit confused by their design.Popular sites like Taobao and Jingdong are very "busy"-they are covered in dozens of links and flashing banners(閃爍的橫幅廣告).They often include a wide variety of bright colors as well,contrasting with the simple colors of most Western websites
So why are Chinese sites designed this way?Some say that Chinese web design hasn't "caught up" to standard Western web design practices.But I don't think this quite explains it.Some Chinese sites are starting to look more minimal,such as Baidu,which are quite clean-looking.
A more convincing theory has to do with the Chinese language.There are no capital letters or spaces in Chinese writing-foreigners who are used to seeing these things might think that Chinese text looks very crowded.
Another thing that makes Chinese website look so busy is the large number of links.Some sites might have hundreds of links on their front page.Again,there is a language-related explanation.
It is difficult to type Chinese characters on a Roman alphabet-based keyboard.You have to type out each character using pinyin,which can be inconvenient.So it's easier to just click the link you want,instead of typing what you're looking for.
Or perhaps it could just be that sometimes people prefer flashy,busy websites.Browsing Jingdong is like stepping into a noisy,brightly-lit street market.So in this way,Chinese internet users might feel right at home when using these sites.
(1)How does the author describe most Chinese websites?
A.They have many links.
B.They have simple designs.
C.They have simple colors.
D.They are quite clean-looking.
(2)According to the author,why are Chinese sites designed this way?
A.Because they haven't caught up with Western standards.
B.To make them easier to use for Chinese speakers.
C.Because they are based on the use of the Roman alphabet.
D.To create a noisy online street market.
(3)What does the underline word "minimal" in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Relaxing.
B.Popular.
C.Simple.
D.Flashy.組卷:0引用:1難度:0.6 -
2.They say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon;on foot,on mules(騾子) or by air.We chose the first.Up early,my husband and I and our three children couldn't wait to get started.We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.
As we set out,I was shocked at how narrow the path was.And I couldn't help noticing that the other tourists weren't like us.They had heavy backpacks,water bottles,and hats.But as usual we were dressed.As the sun rose higher,Arizona's famous heat seemed to roast us.There was no shade and our legs were aching.We decided to go back,with the girl on my back and the boys far behind.By the time we finally got back,our legs were like jelly.
The next day,after we'd had a long rest and a good breakfast,we were ready for another view of the Canyon-by air.After our last walk,this would be the easiest thing in the world.
We called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon.But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed(翻轉(zhuǎn))the plane around,pretending he was going to hit the ground.I shouted, "STOP,TAKE US BACK!" When we finally arrived back on land,once again our legs were like jelly.We hardly spoke as we drove back.
As I said,there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon.We never tried the mules,but personally I'd suggest a fourth:buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic.That way,you can see the Canyon,without fear or tiredness.
(1)Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?
A.They made a careful preparation before the trip.
B.The children were more joyful than their parents.

(2)The underlined expression "Our legs were like jelly" probably means

D.we were disappointed
(3)Which of the following best describes their Canyon trip by air?
A.It proved to be frightening.
B.It was more comfortable.
C.It turned out to be exciting.
D.It made each of them tired.
(4)We can infer from the passage that
A.experiencing the Canyon on mules would be the best way
B.one needs to dress less when visiting the Grand Canyon
C.the writer was not serious when she made the suggestion
D.the whole family narrowly escaped from the air accident組卷:0引用:1難度:0.5 -
3.A smartphone program is helping scientists learn about changes taking place in nature.More than 100,000 citizen-scientists around the world are taking pictures of many kinds of plants and animals using a program called iNaturalist.The program gives researchers much information about where plants and animals live,and how a growing human population is changing plant and animal life.
In Arlington,Virginia,naturalists are making a record of the plants and animals that live in the heavily populated area.
Alonso Abugattas is the local government's natural resources manager.He works to protect and improve Arlington's natural spaces.The group is using the iNaturalist smartphone program to record its observations.Then iNaturalist users throughout the world can look at the images and try to help recognize jye.aim.The program records where and when the picture was taken.This lets experts like Abugattas and others create maps that show where plants and animals are living,and how that changes because of development and climate change.That is important in Arlington and around the world.
Scott Loarie is co-director of iNaturalist.He said species are dying at a faster speed than ever,and the mix of life on Earth is threatened. "And we've only begun to understand exactly how those ecosystems contribute to our food system,or human health-all these things that we depend on."
Loarie says iNaturalist lets citizen-scientists help professional(專業(yè)的)scientists gather data of the wild plants and animals in the world.More than 100,000 iNaturalist observers on all seven continents have made more than four-and-a-half million observations.The information has been used in studies of other animals.
Alonso Abugattas says the group in Arlington recorded more than 450 kinds of animals and plants. "If you just open up your eyes to the natural world,you'd be amazed at what's out there."
(1)Which of the following is the function of the iNaturalist smartphone program?
A.Creating maps to show climate change.
B.Reminding experts to make out the photos.
C.Marking the time and places of the photos.
D.Writing down the names of species in the photos.
(2)What did Scott Loarie want to tell us?
A.The goal of iNaturalist.
B.The regret for dying species.
C.The importance of scientists.
D.The value of species to humans.
(3)What do we know about the iNaturalist smartphone program?
A.It calls on people in the world to change nature.
B.It gets wildlife information and data from all over the world.
C.It directly helps professional scientists to gather data.
D.It lets professional scientists pay attention to humans' behaviors.
