2．Fifteen stores have been permanently barred from using Alibaba's online shopping platform for selling fake or substandard surgical masks during the pneumonia outbreak caused by a novel coronavirus，the e-commerce giant said on Wednesday.
Five of the 15 online shops barred by Tuesday had been referred to public security bureaus for further investigation，Alibaba said in a statement.
"We'll continue efforts to fight people making or selling fake goods related to epidemic（流行的）prevention and control on our platform and give them harsher punishments，" it said，adding it had zero tolerance for such sellers.
Those engaging in price gouging（哄抬）or false advertising would also be punished more heavily，and the company said it would regularly disclose the names of problematic shops and the punishments they received.
"All the moves are not only to shoulder more responsibility for protecting consumers' interests，but also to show our utmost respect to online sellers who obey the laws and participate in the fight to prevent and control the epidemic，" it said.
Promising to let those engaging in improper or illegal behavior during the epidemic period go broke，with "no space to live in Alibaba"，the company also called on other e-commerce platforms to shut their doors to such problematic sellers，and suggested government departments should add them to a dishonesty blacklist.
（1）What does the underlined word "barred" most probably mean？
A．Encourage.
B．Banned.
C．Chosen.
D．Forgiven.
（2）Why are the five online shops investigated by public security bureaus？
A．Because they might avoid further investigation.
B．Because they might have no licenses to sell medical articles.
C．Because they might make or purchase surgical masks illegally.

（3）What does Alibaba expose the names of those shops and their punishment for？
A．Advertising Alibaba's online shopping platform.
B．Getting more money from public security bureaus.
C．Punishing buyers who buy fake or substandard goods.

3．While many of us may have been away somewhere nice last summer，few would say that we've "summered." "Summer" is clearly a noun，more precisely，a verbed noun.
Way back in our childhood，we all learned the difference between a noun and a verb.With such a tidy definition，it was easy to spot the difference.Not so in adulthood，where we are expected to "foot" bills， "chair" committees，and "dialogue" with political opponents.Chances are you didn't feel uncomfortable about the sight of those verbed nouns.
"The verbing of nouns is as old as the English language，" says Patricia O'Conner，a former editor at The New York Times Book Review.Experts estimate that 20 percent of all English verbs were originally nouns.And the phenomenon seems to be snowballing.Since 1900，about 40 percent of all new verbs have come from nouns.
Even though conversion（轉(zhuǎn)化）is quite universal，plenty of grammarians object to the practice.William Strunk Jr.jye.ai E.B.White，in The Elements of Style-the Bible for the use of American English-have this to say："Many nouns lately have been pressed into service as verbs.Not all are bad，but all are suspect." The Chicago Manual of Style takes a similar standpoint，advising writers to use verbs with great care.
"Sometimes people object to a new verb because they resist what is unfamiliar to them，" says O'Conner.That's why we're comfortable "hosting" a party，but we might feel upset by the thought of "medaling" in sports.So are there any rules for verbing？Benjamin Dreyer，copy chief at Random House，doesn't offer a rule，but suggests that people think twice about "verbifying" a noun if it's easily replaceable by an already existing popular verb.Make sure it's descriptive but not silly-sounding，he says.
In the end，however，style is subjective.Easy conversion of nouns to verbs has been part of English grammar for centuries；it is one of the processes that make English "English." Not every coinage（新創(chuàng)的詞語）passes into general use，but as for trying to end verbing altogether，forget it.
（1）What can we learn about the verbing of nouns？
A．It hasn't recently been opposed by many grammarians.
B．It is more commonly accepted by children than adults.
C．It hasn't been a rare phenomenon in the past century.
D．It is easily replaced by existing verbs in practice
（2）What is most leading experts' attitude towards the practice of the verbing of nouns？
A．Cautious.
B．Satisfied.
C．Disappointed.
D．Unconcerned.
（3）What does the author think of ending the verbing of nouns？
A．Predictable.
B．Practicable.
C．Approaching.
D．Impossible.
（4）What is the best title for the text？
A．Are 40 Percent of all new verbs from nouns？
B．Are Summering and Medaling Annoying？
C．Are You Comfortable about a New Verb？
D．Are There Any Rules for Verbing？組卷：9引用：2難度：0.6

Deep in the forest， my husband and I had fun climbing over and crawling under the downed trees that blocked the dirt path before us. It was May，yet we walked up a snow-covered hill. When we noticed our jeans were wet up to our knees， it did not dampen our spirits. Not once did we say， "Let's turn around." This was our vacation， and we were on an adventure. Little did we know this was the beginning of many more surprises.
The trail was marked as an easy one-kilometer hike， yet we were already walking a long distance. Our lightheartedness stopped when we came out into a clearing and saw a parking lot without our rental car in it. As my eyes scanned the surroundings， nothing looked familiar. My heart raced. I realized we were lost in a national park that did not officially open for another week.
Usually， I am the calm one in the relationship， but my husband surprised me with his calmness. This did not comfort me； in fact， it heightened my fear. As we walked， I asked my husband to call for help， but there was no cell phone signal in this isolated（偏僻的）area.
It was awfully quiet except for our footsteps hitting the road， and my heavy breathing. My husband suggested we conserve energy and walk slower. With each step on the road， my feet and thighs hurt while my mind raced with thoughts about people who got lost in the Canadian woods for days.
My vision sharpened. I noticed everything around me： the trees， rocks and snow. I thought we could eat the snow on the ground in case we needed water. For the first time in my life，I was ready and willing to get a ride， but we did not find a single car on the road. We focused on each other，made joint decisions and connected through gratitude. We managed to stay on the main road and walked straight on.
Paragraph 1：
My husband suddenly spotted a small building on a hill in the distance._________.
Paragraph 2：
Just then， a friendly woman appeared， saying， "Hello."_________.組卷：4引用：1難度：0.2
