17．閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語(yǔ)短文．
Nowadays，a new way of shopping is attracting increasing customers：online group buying，also known as collective buying，which offers products and services at reduced prices on the condition that a minimum number of buyers would make the purchase．Origins of group buying can be traced to China where group buying or team buying was executed to get discount prices when a large group of people were willing to buy the same item．
China group buying business hit 1.74billion dollars in 2011，up 55% from the same period in 2010，according to a report．The report also shows that 2011was the year that the Chinese group-buying market got more and more concentrated with more and more Chinese，most of whom are white collars，teenagers and college students enjoying the benefits of group buying，and among most of favorable buying categories are restaurant，movie and hotel booking for traveling．
Through grouping buying，on one hand，customers get a lower price than normal．On the other hand，businessmen also cut down expense on marketing．That is the reason why group buying websites spring up like mushrooms in recent years．What is the most attractive in group buying must be the unbelieving discount．Facing the discount，customers always couldn't resist the impulse to buy the product，even though they don't need them．

11．Responsibility is one of the most treasured traditional values in China．The children are taught to be responsible when they are very young．At schools，the students are also instructed to be responsible．
In fact，responsibility can be understood in many ways．For parents，they have had the responsibility for caring for and fostering their children since the birth of their babies； for teachers，both in kindergartens and colleges，they also should be responsible for the study and life of their students，that is to say，teachers are the second parents of children to some extent； for us，to promote a better relationship with our friends，we bear the responsibility for helping our friends when they are in trouble or faced with difficulties．

8．As an English teacher，I've been lucky enough to travel to many countries．I've seen people celebrating everything from the arrival of new babies to the delivery of new cars．
I've attended weddings，parties and religious celebrations in countries as far apart as Argentina and Japan，and I've noticed that gold-the metal or the colour is almost always part of cultural events，traditions and celebrations．
From"mashallah"gold tokens（紀(jì)念品） that people give to babies in Turkey，to the gold stars that primary teachers stick on their students'exercise books，to the gold coffin that the"King of Pop"Michael Jackson was buried in，it makes me wonder：Why do people love gold？
For some people，gola seems to be a status symbol．Indian businessman Datta Phuge loves gold so much that he's even bought a shirt made of the stuff-at a cost of 250，000．DattaPhugehashisreasons．Heexplains："SomecelebritieswanttoownanAudiorMercedesandhavebigcars．Ichosegold．"Forotherpeople，goldisaninvestment．ThepriceofgoldgenerallyincreasesovertimeandinEuropeanmarketsitreachedover 1，500per ounce in 2011．
And for many people，the family heirloom（傳家寶） brings together status and investment．My mother has a gold bracelet that was given to her by her grandmother-who，in turn，inherited it from her own grandmother．It's quite a heavy piece and probably worth quite a lot of money．But its sentimental value is greater than its value in dollars：It's a beautiful object that holds many family memories．When the time comes，my mum will give the bracelet to me．
So，status and investment are good reasons to value gold．But，I think that the real reason people love gold is because it can be made into beautiful objects．Think．a(chǎn)bout Tutankhamen's death mask．People love gold because it captures our minds，our imaginations and，above all．our hearts．

56．What did the author come to realize while travelling in different countries？
（No more than 20words）
She observed that gold is almost always part of cultural events，traditions and celebrations．
57．Why did Indian businessman Datta Phuge buy a gold shirt？（No more than l0   words）
He chose gold as a status symbol．
58．What does the underlined word"stuff"refer to in Paragraph 3？（One word）
gold
59．What does the wr：iter think of her mother's gold bracelet？（No more than 10words）
She believes that it holds many family memories．
60．Do you love gold？Why or why not？（No more than 20words）
Yes．Because it can be made into beautiful objects and it captures our minds，our imaginations and our hearts．．
