【2】A空后的意思：在一個(gè)現(xiàn)代即時(shí)信息顯示，購物者可以使用手機(jī)購物。所以這里選A（目前越來越多的人們選擇網(wǎng)絡(luò)購物。）與上下文一致。故選A。

【3】D 空前的意思：今年將近80%的購物者，或者說大約183.8百萬的人在Cyber Monday購物�？蘸蟮囊馑迹航衲暝�Black Friday的網(wǎng)絡(luò)消費(fèi)上升了15%達(dá)到27億。所以這里選D（五分之一的美國人使用平板電腦或者手機(jī)。）與上下文一致。故選D。

【4】B根據(jù)上句： According to a survey, 94.2percent of malls were full with shops by the end of 2014.…根據(jù)一項(xiàng)調(diào)查，到2014年底94.2%的購物廣場商店是滿的。所以這里選B（這是27年來的最高水平。）與上下文一致。故B正確。
