Increasingly, that’s no longer the case.Chinese people born before 1985 generally think that foreign brands are better than Chinese ones, billionaire William Li told Business Insider during a recent interview on CCTV 9. But for who were born after 1985, it is a different picture.“When I first went to the United Kingdom in 1997, I thought that the difference between China and Europe was quite big,” Li said. “But for those born in the 1990s, when they visit Europe or the US, they do not think there is a big difference.”The change in thinking among Chinese buyers is showing up in many markets in China where western companies used to control. A study by Credit Suisse published in March found that young Chinese buyers are increasingly showing a home brand bias.”More than 90% of young Chinese buyers would prefer to buy home appliance brands, according to the study. Meanwhile, home companies producing food, drinks, or personal care products increased their share of the market by 3, 3% over the last ten years to nearly 70%.“Chinese buyers, especially the younger ones, don’t just believe that foreign brands are better. Right now, Chinese buyers think China is good and ‘Made in China’ is not bad at all,” Charlie Chen, head of China buyer research at Credit Suisse, told South China Morning Post in March.The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies—Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi. Apple is the only foreign brand in the top five, but it has lost large ground to the home brands in recent years. Its market share is believed to be down to 37% from a 2015 high of 54%.21．What is this passage mainly about?A．The quality of ‘ Made in China’.B．The change in Chinese buyers’ thinking.C．Chinese products in the eye of foreigner.D．Difference between older and younger Chinese buyers.22．Which of the following is true according to the text?A．More and more foreigners go to buy Chinese products.B．Foreign products are more expensive than Chinese ones.C．More and more Chinese buyers prefer Chinese products.D．Older Chinese people don’t li ke foreign products any more.23．Which fact best explains “home brand bias”?A．Apple had a market share of 54% in 2015.B．More than 90% of young Chinese buyers prefer home brands.C．Chinese people born before 1985 think that foreign brands are better.D．William Li found a big difference between China and Europe in 1997.24．Who did most of the research for this report?A．Credit Suisse. B．CCTV 9.C．South China Morning Post. D．Business Insider.25．What’s the best title for this passage?A．Chinese products get more popular at homeB．Young Chinese are crazy for foreign brandsC．‘Made in China’ is welcomed all over the worldD．Apple has lost large ground to Huawei in China四、单词填空根据短文内容及首字母提示完成短文In the p26．, life was not easy.

More and more people, especially the young, prefer to read e-books online. They think e-books are much cheaper than paper books, and sometimes they are even free. What's more, it is more convenient to read e-books. People can read them whenever or wherever they want. However, some people enjoy reading paper books while relaxing in the sunshine. Here are some people's likes and dislikes about them.Julia, a writer I've been using an e-reader for nearly four years. It brings me lotsof convenience. I can save much space with it. I don't need to lookfor information from piles of books as I used to. Clicking the mouse or screen to read makes it easier. It also helps to save time. I can go on with my writing even on the subway while reading.Sam, amanager Nothing is better than the feel and smell of a real book. If Ihad a chance to make a choice, I'd choose a real book — somethingI can give as a gift. However, since I often go to different placeson business, having real books is difficult. That's why I've bought an e-reader.Emma, a nurseWith an e-reader, I am able to read books anywhere and anytime.My cell phone can hold more than 120 books. But there is one problem— I don't value them because it's so easy to download(下载) them.So I think if you really like a book, you'd better buy a paper version of it and spend your time enjoying it.Larry, astudent I like reading e-books far more than paper books. On the one hand,I can go online to buy an e-book and read it immediately in my spare time. On the other hand, there's no need to cut trees down to produce an e-book. ( )21.Julia used to look for information by .A. reading many paper booksB. clicking the screen of her computerC. reading on the subwayD. asking others for help( )22.The prevents Sam from reading real books.A. work situationB. smell of real booksC. business partner's giftD. health condition( )23.Emma's problem with the e-reader is that .A. she can't read many booksB. she doesn't value the e-booksC. it's difficult to download a bookD. she has no time to read e-books( )24.In opinion, reading e-books can help protect the environment.A. Sam'sB. Emma'sC. Julia'sD. Larry's( )25.We can know that from the passage.A. e-books are always freeB. people can read e-books at any timeC. e-books bring people sunshineD. e-books are popular with all the peopleBWhen we are children, the holidays seem to last forever. But later, we may find that time just seems to fly by. Why does time seem to pass faster as we get older?According to the Daily Mail, our brains degrade as we get older. That decreases the amount of information we can deal with in a single day. "The human mind senses time changing when the perceived(感知到的) images change," Adrian Bejan from Duke University, the US, told the Daily Mail. "The present is different from the past because the mental viewing has changed, not because somebody's clock rings."Infants(幼儿), for example, move their eyes much more often than adults because they're processing(处理) images at a faster rate. They deal with a large amount of information and do many things in a single day.This makes them feellike a single day lasts for a long time. However, as people get older, fewer images are processed in the same amount of time. Therefore, older people receive less information during a day than younger people. This causes things to seem as though they were happening more quickly.Apart from the degradation of our brains, some psychological reasons also make us experience time differently.People may measure time by the number of memorable events that can be recalled(回忆) within a certain period. When we think about our youth, we may remember a life packed with first-time activities, for example, our first-time traveling without our parents, or our first date. We experienced these events so vividly that time then seemed to have passed very slowly. According to David Eagleman of the Baylor College of Medicine in the US, recalling these memories makes us feel like they took forever.Many adults find life is routine and sometimes dull. For this reason, when they look back, they might feel like there are not many exciting things to remember. Therefore, time seems to be moving faster to them.( )26.What does the underlined word "degrade" mean?A. Become better.B. Become worse.C. Remain the same.D. Become smaller.( )27.How do people sense time changing according to Adrian Bejan?A. It depends on how their clocks change.B. It depends on how the views around them change.C. It depends on how often they move their eyes.D. It depends on how the images they perceived change.( )28.What is the purpose of the fifth paragraph?A. To tell us that first-time activities are vivid and memorable.B. To tell us that first-time events can make time pass slowly.C. To tell us that psychological reasons make people sense time differently.D. To tell us that people should measure time by the number of memorable events. ( )29.Why does time seem to pass faster as we get older?A. Because our life will become routine and dull when we grow older.B. Because the degradation of our brains will make it slower to recall memories.C. Because we'll deal with less information in the same amount of time.D. Because we won't have first-time activities when we grow older.( )30.In which part of a magazine can you probably read the text?A. News.B. Sports.C. Health.D. Science.CIt's the end of class. When the bell rings, lots of students quickly take out their cell phones to log on to(登录) their WeChat.Recent surveys show that most students in middle schools have WeChat and some even update the Moments(更新朋友圈) over five times per day."We can learn many new and interesting things on WeChat and then they become popular topics in class," said Andy Liang, 14. "If you do not know about them, you are out of the loop."It is also a great way for students to reduce stress. "When I share these feelings on WeChat, I get many replies from friends in the same situation, which makes me feel better," said Simon Zhang.But parents are worried that WeChat may be a waste of time. "Some messages may even cause danger to kids," they said.Mr. Shen, a professor of education, suggests parents shouldn't worry too much as long as kids are not crazy about WeChat. Maybe it can become a window for parents to understand their children. "If parents can read their children's Moments, they'll know their thoughts, thus having better communication and solutions to some problems,"he said. He also gives some tips to kids.—Never use WeChat in class.—Don't stay on WeChat for more than one hour a day.—Try to talk face to face with people from time to time.—Don't trust all the messages on WeChat.( )31.The underlined part "out of the loop" probably means " ".A. not popularB. not excitedC. unhealthyD. unlucky( )32.WeChat made Simon when he shared his feelings with some friends.A. feel sadB. feel relaxedC. have stressD. become more friendly( )33.According to Mr. Shen, WeChat can .A. make kids get into troubleB. help parents understand their kids betterC. bring trouble to both kids and parentsD. lead to worse communication between parents and kids( )34.How long does Mr. Shen think children should spend on WeChat?A. About two hours a day.B. Five hours a day.C. Less than one hour a day.D. More than one hour a day.( )35.What is the writer's purpose in writing the passage?A. To introduce WeChat to parents.B. To tell parents not to worry about their kids.C. To improve the relationship between parents and kids.D. To show that WeChat can be helpful if it's used properly.阅读下列短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。
