It's hard to imagine any gifts more convenient than online flower delivery. There is no driving to the local florist shop, no waiting on hold, and no searching for a phone number for a flower delivery service in the area you need to send. You simply select the bouquet or arrangement,and enter the delivery and payment information. Besides, many offer additional gifts including gift baskets, chocolates, teddy bears and so on.

Fast Flower Delivery Online

When you buy flowers online,you can get flower delivery just as fast as if you place the order in person or over the phone. If you place your order early in the day with an Internet florist, many of the best can deliver on the same day.

Send Flowers for Less

Customers often find better prices when buying on the Internet,because online flower shops typically have lower prices and more discount deals. These shops have less overhead（运营费用）and costs，so they can pass the savings on to the customer. In addition,you usually get a much better deal, especially at busy holidays such as Valentine's Day,Easter,Mother's Day,Christmas,etc. Spectacular Flower Selection

A typical local flower shop does not have a big selection to choose,and also,when you order flowers over the phone you can't see what you'll get. Online flower shops have pictures, and still many have a spectacular selection to choose from. Plus, if one Internet florist doesn't have what you want,it'll take just a few seconds to buy flowers online from another florist site.

1.What might you get on a special holiday?

A.Faster delivery.    B.Wider choices.    C.More discount.   D.Extra gifts.

2.In which aspect is online flower delivery better than over the phone?

A.You see pictures of the flowers.         B.You needn't drive to the shop.

C.You can pay afterwards.               D.You have a faster service.

3. What is the purpose of the text?

A.To show the advantages of online shopping.

B.To help run an online floral business.

C.To advertise an online flower shop.

D.To promote online flower delivery.

B

I still remember my father's embarrassment the day when he was invited to have dinner at a colleague's house. Freshly arriving in Brazil, and not being able to look up on the Internet, he offended his hosts by making a hand gesture—a circle with the thumb and index finger. He had always understood it to mean“OK”, but in Brazil, it meant something different.

The episode was swiftly forgotten. My father's colleague understood that he probably wasn't yet aware of the local meaning of the gesture. He gently explained it meant something rude,and then it was filed away under "things not to be done in Rio".

I was reminded myself in China. After I replied to a friend's We Chat message with a Van Gogh sticker that I thought meant“keep fighting",another friend told me I used it wrong.

“The Chinese version is a bit different,”she said, taking out her phone and showing to me."See these characters?They mean ‘I will hit you!’"

Life is full of crossed meanings. In India, you sign to someone to come over with your palm down, not up. And in the Middle East, you never use your left hand for anything public.

As adults，we understand that even if it hurts，a mistake is only an insult（侮辱）when it is deliberate. Yet,many conflicts come from misunderstanding,and history is full of the unfortunate outcomes of cross-cultural communication.

My father's pre-Internet Brazilian mistake was forgiven because of context—he had just arrived and he didn't know its local meaning. But when context is absent or simply differently understood—especially in the social media—perhaps it is time we all think twice before typing or talking,especially when the consequences can be more severe than the misuse of a We Chat sticker.

4.What is the topic of the text?

A. Cultural difference.                     B.Language and culture.

C.Sign language.                         D.Good manners.

5.What does the author want to show by telling his father's story?

A.The OK sign means differently in Brazil.    B.Cross-cultural mistakes are common.

C.The Internet helps to avoid mistakes.       D.Misunderstandings lead to bad results.

6.What did the author mean to do by using the Van Gogh sticker?

A.To greet his friend.                     B.To encourage his friend.

C.To threaten his friend.                   D.To make fun of his friend.

7. What might result in if there is no context?

A. Cultural conflicts.                      B.Forgiveness.

C. Cultural gaps.                         D. Mutual respect.

C

Turkmenistan is a country in Central Asia ,near Afghanistan and Iran.In Darvaza, one of its villages, there is a very interesting feature. It is a massive hole in the ground-about 20 metre(65 feet)deep and 60 metre (196 feet) across. The enormous pit has been on fire for more than 50 years.

Why is the crater on fire?The most popular theory is that in 1971, a team of geologists from the then-Soviet Union were drilling in the country's Karakorum Desert to try to find gas. The ground under the drill collapsed and methane（甲烷）gas began to escape into the air. The geologists decided the safest thing to do was to burn off the gas by lighting it on fire. They thought the fire would burn for only a few weeks.  However, it has been burning steadily for more than 50 years.

According to a BBC article,Canadian explorer George Kouroun is discovered in 2013 that“no one actually knows how this... inferno came to be.”But, now the crater may finally be extinguished.

Turkmenistan's president,Mr.Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow,has asked scientists in the country to figure out how to put out the burning crater. He went on the country's state-run television station on January 8 to encourage experts to find a way to stop the fire.

One of the reasons he wants the crater to be put out is that the country can collect the gas that fuels it. Gas is a very important and valuable resource and can be used for many purposes. If it's just burning off, the gas cannot be used or sold. According to the website Vice.com,the crater sits on the fourth largest reserve of natural gas in the world. Another reason the president may want the crater put out is to stop the harmful effects, to humans and the environment,of the burning gas. 8.Why did the geologists light the crater?

A.To test the quality of the gas.             B.To exhaust the underground gas.

C.To prevent explosion of the gas.           D.To stop the escape of the gas.

9. What does the underlined word“inferno”in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A. The article.        B.The theory.        C.The fire.        D.The president.

10.What does Turkmenistan's president want to do?

A.To protect the crater.                    B.To find the reason of the fire.

C.To seek help from the public.             D.To exploit and use the gas.

11.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A.The Fire Crater May Soon Be Put Out

B.A Peculiar Scenic Spot in Turkmenistan

C.The Crater Burning for Fifty Years

D.The Harmful Effects of the Burning Gas

D

Researchers from the French National Centre for Scientific Research(CNRS)discovered that ant species Formica fusca has a well-developed sense of smell..It was able to distinguish cancerous cells from healthy cells in humans. But more clinical tests must be carried out before the findings could be used in clinical settings like hospitals, the team said.

In the research,the scientists performed tests with 36 ants, smelling cells under a laboratory setting. First, the ants were exposed to the smell of a sample of cancerous human cells. This odor（气味）was then associated with a reward of sugar solution.  Then，the researchers exposed the ants to two different odors. One was a new smell and the other was the smell of the cancerous cells.Once this test was successful,the researchers exposed the ants to different cancerous cells. As such, the scientists found that“ants discriminate between cancerous and healthy cells and between two cancerous lines."After training,Formica fusca ants are able to detect volatile organic compounds of cancerous cells.

This study shows that ants are capable of learning very quickly,at lower cost,and are efficient,points out CNRS in a news release. This isn't the first time that scientists have used animals to locate cancerous cells. Dogs' noses are well suited for medical diagnosis and used for the detection of cancer-specific. However, training them to do so requires several months to a year.

On the other hand,insects can be easily raised in controlled conditions. They are inexpensive, and have a very well-developed smell system. Hundreds of individuals can be conditioned with very few trials. Ants therefore represent a fast,efficient,inexpensive and highly discriminant detection tool for detection of cancer cell,the team explained.

12.What do we know about the findings?

A.They are the first findings in animals.      B.They can be used to treat cancer.

C.They are useful in varieties of fields.       D.They need further experiments.

13. What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A.The research tools and methods.          B.The process of the research.

C.The application of the findings.           D.Formica fusca's magic power.

14.In which aspect are ants better than dogs according to the research?

A.They have a sharper sense of smell.        B.They are more intelligent than dogs.

C.They take less time to be trained.          D.They perform better in laboratory settings.

15.Where is this text most likely from?

A.A guidebook.         B.A novel.         C.A diary.         D.A magazine.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

My parents grew up poor. But as a family, we were comfortable, though we didn't have much what would be considered luxuries. One year, my father went on a trip to Italy and brought my mother an opal ring. It was her favorite stone, and she cherished that ring. It represented Dad's love for her.

Dad died at the age of 53 in 1980 after a grueling battle with cancer. Mom was working at Burlington Coat Factory Department store. She usually wore the ring to work. Over the years,the ring became impossible for my Mom to wear because of her swollen knuckles（指关节）.I had the ring fitted with a clasp so that Mom could wear it again. She took great pride in the frequent compliments as she got on that ring.

One day during her shift,the ring slipped off. She didn't realize it until the following day. Mom was sad. The ring did not have a high monetary value,but it meant as much to her as life itself. I decided to go and look for it.

I encountered Chloe, one of my Mom's co-workers at my Mom's workplace. She led me to the store where Mom worked, and then left. It was packed with clothes, racks and tables. I started row by row crawling on the floor to see if I could find the ring underneath all the clothes. When I got to the last row and hadn't found the ring, the thought occurred to me that it might have fallen into the pocket of a coat as my Mom was hanging or rearranging the clothes. I started feeling around in the pockets of some of the coats, but quickly abandoned. There were at least 20,000 pieces of clothing in that department. The attempt seemed useless.
