【題目】The Chinese are more likely to shop online than consumers from any other country, according to the latest survey by the International Post Corporation, a Brussels-headquartered association on postal services.

In the second annual study of 24,000 respondents in 26 markets across North America, the Asia-Pacific and Europe, the IPC found that 36 percent of Chinese buy from digital sites at least once a week, a frequency far outstripping peer buyers.

China is also the most popular market for consumers around the world to shop from, accounting for 26 percent of most recent cross-border purchases, followed by the United States with 16 percent, Germany’s 15 percent and the United Kingdom’s 15 percent.

Purchases from China are more popular with younger people and women, while purchases from Germany receive warmer welcome by men and the elderly, the international study found.

Online marketplaces such as Amazon.com Inc, eBay Inc and Alibaba Group Holdings Ltd were the most sought-after avenues for buyers from almost all countries, accounting for around two-thirds of all cross-border purchases, the study said.

The survey also indicated that clear information about delivery charges, free returns and free delivery over a particular value, were the most important drivers for cross-border online shoppers.

It found that consumers were more likely to pay a premium for tracking rather than for speed of delivery. They preferred to pay for delivery of a tracked item that took five to eight days for delivery than an untracked item that took three to four days.

About 70 percent of cross-border online shoppers were offered tracking and 88 percent used it, mostly in the interim stage, to check on delivery progress.

Almost three-quarters of shoppers used the post for their most recent cross-border purchases. Overall, 87 percent were satisfied with their delivery experience. Only 6 percent returned their cross-border purchase, mostly using the post for the return.

The survey also looked at consumer delivery experiences, finding that most cross-border purchases had free shipping.

【1】Which of the following statements is Not true according to the survey?

A. The Chinese consumers like shopping online best in the world.

B. America is the second most popular market for worldwide consumers.

C. Younger people and women from Germany are superior to men and the elderly in purchasing.

D. The majority of cross-border purchases can enjoy free shipping.

【2】The following items are the most important drivers for cross-border online shopping Except ________.

A. delivery charges

B. free delivery over a particular value

C. free returns

D. the speed of delivery

【3】Which can be the most suitable title for the passage?

A. Chinese Top World’s Online Shoppers.

B. China, the Most Popular Purchasing Market.

C. Global Online Shopping .

D. Cross-border Purchases.

【答案】

【1】C

【2】 D

【3】A

【解析】

【文章大意】文章主要介紹了中國人的網(wǎng)絡(luò)購物消費已經(jīng)躍居世界前列的調(diào)查。

【1】C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題 依據(jù)文章第四段中的“while purchases from Germany receive warmer welcome by men and the elderly, the international study found.”可知在德國男性和老人更喜歡購物，故C項錯誤。

【2】 D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題 依據(jù)文章中的“The survey also indicated that clear information about delivery charges, freereturns and free delivery over a particular value, were the most important drivers for cross-border onlineshoppers.”可知答案。

【3】A 文章標(biāo)題題 依據(jù)文章的主要內(nèi)容可知主要是講述了中國的網(wǎng)絡(luò)購物消費已經(jīng)躍居世界前列，故A 項適合。

A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. When you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam? Be involved. Parents need to be involved in their teen's work. What they look for is your presence — to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express her worries and fears, but don't let them focus on those fears.
Help them get organized. Together, you and your teen can work out a time—table in which she can study for what she knows will be on the test.
Provide a calm setting. Help your teen set up a quiet place to study and protect his privacy. Give them a nutritious diet. It is important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced diet during exam times to focus and do her best. If this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches. A healthy diet, rather than junk food, is best for reducing stress.
Persuade y our teenager to get some sleep or do something active when she needs a real break from studying. Making time for relaxation, fun, and exercise are all important in reducing stress. Help your teen balance her time so that she will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.
Show a positive attitude. Your panic, anxiety and blame contribute to your teen's pressure. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for her efforts. Most importantly, reassure your teen that things will be all right, no matter what the results are.
A. A parent's attitude will dictate their teen's emotions.
B. Exam stress can make some teens lose their appetite.
