It has more than 900 million users worldwide. If it were a country,it would have a larger population in the world than a lot of countries. This is Facebook,a popular website from theUS.

  Mark Zuckerberg was born on May 14,1984. As a little kid,he loved creating little fun computer programs,especially communication tools and games. He set up the network in February of 2004. He was then a secondyear student at Harvard University. One day,he had an idea of building a website for Harvard students to get to know each other. He set up the Facebook website. Harvard students could share their photos and personal information there. Soon,the website became very famous. Zuckerberg decided to leave Harvard to run Facebook full time. It was the biggest advantage in his life and later brought him great success. Now the service is popular around the world.

  Greetings such as "Have you checked your Facebook page today?" became a part of young people's everyday language in theUS. People can exchange messages and get the latest information about their friends on Facebook. Zuckerberg's dream is to connect people through the Internet. "Facebook is to make the world more open and connected," he said.

  What's the young man's secret to success? Zuckerberg believes it's important to have an open mind and be ready to try new things. "The riskiest thing is to take no risks," he once said in an open letter. Sometimes the simplest ideas go furthest. We hope Zuckerburg can go much further,maybe even further than Bill Gates.

1. D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)題目中的關(guān)鍵詞"do all the things . . . EXCEPT"定位于文章第二段"Harvard students could share their photos and personal information there."可知人們可以在這個(gè)網(wǎng)站交換和分享信息，上傳照片。短文沒(méi)有關(guān)于這個(gè)網(wǎng)站能開(kāi)網(wǎng)店的描述。

5. C主旨大意題。通讀全文可知本文重在介紹Facebook創(chuàng)建者的故事。
