Question

6．Do you like shopping？Or does the thought of wandering round the shops fill you with terror？For some of us，shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our spare time and our money．For me．it's something I would rather avoid．Thank goodness for the Internet!It's more convenient to buy CDs，electrical items，even food，from the comfort of your sofa．But that's not the only reason：price is an important factor．We can buy goods and services cheaper online．But sometimes the problem is knowing what to buy．This has led to a type of shopping called"showrooming"．
Showrooming is something I've done．I will go to a shop to see，touch and try out products but then go home and buy them online at a knock-down price．I'm not alone in doing this．Research by a company called Foolproof，found 24%of people showroomed while Christmas shopping in 2013．
Amy Cashman，Head of Technology at TNS UK，says the reasons for this new shopping habit are that"people are lacking time，lacking money and they want security about the products they are buying．"She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on their smartphones to shop around．
But does this mean technology will kill shops？Certainly shops will change．They will have to offer more competitive prices or encourage people to buy more by giving in-store discounts or free girls．
We mustn't forget that buying in a shop means you can get expert advice from the sales assistant and you can get good aftercare．It's good to speak to a real human rather than look at a faceless computer screen but at least by showrooming，you get the best of both worlds!

Answer 1

分析 目前，國(guó)內(nèi)外興起了一種購(gòu)物方式-Showrooming（商品展廳）．Showrooming指的是消費(fèi)者在零售店挑選商品，然后在網(wǎng)上購(gòu)買(mǎi)的消費(fèi)行為．在本文中作者就這一現(xiàn)象以及網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物對(duì)商場(chǎng)的沖擊進(jìn)行了分析，指出商場(chǎng)必須做出相應(yīng)的改變來(lái)迎接這一挑戰(zhàn)．

解答 51．A 推理判斷題．本文內(nèi)容是介紹網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物，由此可知作者在文章開(kāi)篇提出的問(wèn)題只是起到引出話題的作用，答案選A．
52．A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．由文章第二段"Showrooming is something I've done．I will go to a shop to see，touch and try out products but then go home and buy them online at a knock-down price．"可知showrooming指的是去實(shí)體店看或者試用產(chǎn)品，然后去網(wǎng)上購(gòu)買(mǎi)，故答案選A．
53．B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．從文章第三段Amy Cashman所說(shuō)的"the reasons for this new shopping habit are that"people are lacking time，lacking money and they want security about the products they are buying"由此可知B選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容不是showrooming的原因，答案選B．
54．C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．從文章第四段"Certainly shops will change．They will have to offer more competitive prices …free girls"可以判斷商店不會(huì)因?yàn)榫W(wǎng)購(gòu)的增多而倒閉，但是商場(chǎng)卻的確需要一些改變，答案選C．
55．C 推理判斷題．A批判的；B中立的；C支持的；D隨意的．從文章末段"but at least by showrooming，you get the best of both worlds!"可知作者對(duì)showrooming持贊同的觀點(diǎn)，答案選C．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 政治類文章多采用記敘文形式，我們可采取"順讀法"，以便抓關(guān)鍵語(yǔ)句，領(lǐng)會(huì)文章主旨；而經(jīng)濟(jì)類文章則多采用說(shuō)明文形式，我們則可以采取"逆讀法"，先讀試題，再?gòu)奈恼轮胁檎矣杏眯畔ⅲ?/p>
