News that Microsoft made a $44.6 billion bid to buy Yahoo resulted in heated discussions made by many Internet users. Here are some responses:

Diane Burke of Weeks bury, Kentucky

I think it would definitely be an interesting combination. Everyone recognizes the names Yahoo and Microsoft, but everyone also says, “Did you Google it?” Such a catchphrase is going to be hard to beat.

Shaun Carney of Laurelville, Ohio

I think the merger will provide more competitions for Google. I don’t think the merger will allow Microsoft to develop faster than Google, though. I believe the increased competition this merger brings will force Google to stay on top of its game by offering more fresh and original Internet tools and expanding on the tools it already offers.

Toni Suarez of Hacienda Heights, California

I view the merger as a necessary element in preventing a monopolization. Perhaps it would bring better high technology innovations to e-mail and help in researching and developing a better Internet!

Rick R. of Edgewater, Florida

It sounds like a disaster to me. If this were to happen, I would stop using my Yahoo e-mail account because I don’t like the feeling of Microsoft spying upon my business. I will sign up for Google.

Antonio Glosser of Kansas City, Missouri

Right now, Yahoo offers a lot of features and tools at no cost for all different levels of Internet users. Microsoft seeks nothing but profit. Undoubtedly, they’ll do nothing other than find ways to start removing Yahoo’s formerly non-priced features. Microsoft’s greed will ruin the great thing that Yahoo currently is.

1. How many companies are mentioned in the passage?

A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.

2.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Shaun’s attitude towards Google is passive.

B. Toni believes the Internet will have a promising future.

C. Rick will support Google after the merger.

D. Antonio is afraid that the merger will cost Yahoo’s free features.

3.The passage is mainly about ______.

A. opinions on the merger of Yahoo and Microsoft

B. the strengths of Yahoo and Microsoft

C. the strengths and weaknesses of large companies

D. the future of Yahoo and Microsoft

Tiangong -- 1（or．Heavenly Palace）space module（艙）is the first step toward China’s plan to build a space station around 2020．Its launch（發(fā)射）by China has upset some countries，which are asking why China did not add on to the International Space Station that has been in place since 1998. After all, the Americans，Russians，Europeans and Japanese are using one platform to experiment in space．

Questions have also been asked about China’s final purpose in space and suggestions made that there is something as unpleasant as the theme in a James Bond movie，in which Chinese-looking enemies were at the root of some evil（邪惡的）plot to control the world．

Chinese don’t see themselves that way, and never in history have they been flag-planting settlers．Most Westerners are educated in the adventures of the great European explorers，headed by Christopher Columbus and James Cook，and followed closely by the groups of culture egotists（自大者）with a mix of guns，gold and the Bible in their hands．

In comparison，Zheng He，the great Chinese sailing master，took groups of ships to Africa and the Middle East to promote goodwill, with gifts of chinaware and art．No flags claiming（宣稱） possession of distant areas．But this is strange to Western society．

In this century，it is clear that space cannot be claimed by one nation．Yet advantage of technology in space does seem to be on some minds．Former US president Ronald Reagan caused shocks and worries with his Star Wars program．So when China shot down its own satellite as a test in January 2010 there were anxieties in the West about Star Wars 1ike scenario（劇本）becoming reality in the near future．

1.The launch of Tiangong -- 1 __________．

A. is appreciated by countries like the USA and Japan

B. will bring trouble to the western countries in space

C. is part of China’s plan to set up a station in space

D. will help China be a member of the Space Station

2.It is most probable that the US，Russia，Europe and Japan ______­­­­__．

A. are competing against one another in space wars

B. feel anxious about China’s setting up a space station

C. are cooperating to compete against China in space

D. have warned the world of China’s final purpose

3.The author of the passage mentions Zheng He _________．

A. to tell people China’s will never be enemies of world peace

B. to compare him to the great European explorers like Columbus

C. to indicate that he is the pride of the Chinese people

D. to show that the Chinese people are as great as other peoples

4.From the last paragraph，we can infer that _________．

A. China’s shooting down its satellite made the scenario become reality

B. some countries are trying to be ahead of the others in space exploration

C. China will be in control of the world if she starts space exploration

D. if a nation has a better technology in space，it will start a star war

BERLIN (Reuters)—Germany’s postal service has announced plans to explore improved service and help protect the environment by getting “fetch friends”—ordinary people traveling across cities—to deliver parcels on their way.

It is hoped that the move, which will be tested in the coming months, might lessen traffic in inner cities and reduce CO2 emissions(排放). This should help DHL, a division of the German postal service, reach its target of improving the company’s carbon efficiency by 30 percent before 2020.

“As the world’s biggest logistics(物流) provider, we recognize a special responsibility to reduce the impact on the environment as much as possible,” said Frank Appel, Chief Executive Officer of Deutsche Post DHL, in a statement referring to a variety of measures being considered.

The “fetch friends” find out online about parcels that need delivering to people who live or work along the way that they are planning to travel through the city. They then select the ones that they want to take.

Codes(編碼) sent to their mobile phones tell the volunteers where to pick the packages up. Parcels can be taken part of the way or passed on to another volunteer but all volunteers need to have the right code on their mobile phone so the track and trace system can be updated.

Logistics companies will be responsible for looking after the operation to make sure that the privacy of post is respected.

It’s hoped that this could be done using mobile phones but DHL says it recognizes that some security issues remain to be worked out.

1.According to the passage, the “fetch friend” program ________.

A. has been tested for months

B. aims to reduce the cost of the service

C. employs environmentalists to help with deliveries

D. encourages ordinary people to help cut the carbon footprint

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE of DHL?

A. It belongs to the Germany’s postal service.

B. It has the most up-to-date tracking system in Germany.

C. It has succeeded in improving its carbon efficiency by 30%.

D. It has designed many measures to improve its service speed.

3.What may be a problem with the new service according to the article?

A. Volunteers’ not allowing to select parcels.

B. The wrong codes in the mobile phones.

C. The possibility that parcels could be opened on the way.

D. Parcels’ being taken to the destination by a single volunteer.

4.What might be the best Title for the best passage?

A. New Challenges for the Postal Service

B. A Greener Way to Deliver Parcels

C. Solutions for Global Warming

D. Statements from DHL
