They order clothes and they don’t fit. People get very unhappy.”‎ Wong and her design partner, Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtual (虚拟)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Kong and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, ‘The color is wrong’ or ‘I got the right size but it still does not fit.’ We want to make it like you’re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang ‎ said.‎ Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong’s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper’s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.‎ Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important to men.”‎ ‎24. Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadvantage?‎ A. ‎ Students may easily get addicted to it.‎ B. ‎ It attracts more online clothing shoppers.‎ C. ‎ It causes shoppers to waste too much money.‎ D. ‎ Clothes bought online may not fit.‎ 25. Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.‎ A. a program at their university B. some shop-owners’ complaints ‎ C. their shopping experiences D. the Xbox 360 video game player 26. Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?‎ A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting images ‎ B. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanning C. trying on clothes -- getting images – scanning D. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes 27. What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?‎ A. It is perfectly developed. B. It is limited to women shoppers. ‎ C. It is like a kind of video game player. D. It will have its market share.‎ C Meeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people ‎ may send the wrong signal. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.‎ Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries, like the UK or France, people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafe rather than at the office.‎ Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion, instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.‎ Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values, however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.‎ People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.‎ ‎28. What’s the probable meaning of the underlined word “emphasize”?‎ A. To draw special attention to. B. To ignore.‎ C. To laugh at. D. To get close to.‎ ‎29. The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that _____.‎ A. the English prefer to make long speeches B. too many words are of no use C. people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature D. even talk and silence can be culturally different ‎30. According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?‎ A. By sharing different ways of life. B. By accepting different habits.‎ C. By recognizing different values. D. By speaking each other’s languages.‎ ‎31. What would be the best title for the text?‎ A. Multicultural Environment. B. Cross-Cultural Differences.‎ C. How to Understand Each Other. D. How to Build Up a Relationship.‎ D Instagram(照片共享应用程序), is a social networking app made for sharing photos and videos from a smartphone. However, some people argue that Instagrm is harmful to teens.‎ ‎ Essena O’Neill seemed to have a perfect life—at least online. The Australian teen had 500,000 Instagram followers. He Internet fame led to a modeling contract. Companies paid her to show their clothing in her photos.‎ ‎ But in November 2015, Essena, then 18, shut down her Instagram account. She deleted(删除) more than 2,000 photos. “I’ve spent the majority of my teenage life being addicted to social media, ”she wrote. “I’m leaving Instagram.”‎ ‎ Essena left a few photos online, and told the truth behind the photos she created. For example, she didn’t eat all day before taking a picture in a bikini(比基尼泳装). She took that photo 100 times to make sure her stomach looked perfect. “Social media is not real life!” she says now.‎ ‎ Seeing perfect-looking Instagram photos can make teens feel like they don’t measure up. And if your photos don’t get many “likes,”you might take it personally. Even Essena worried all the time about what others thought of her. Trying to appear perfect online made her feel alone. One day, she wrote, “I had never been more miserable(痛苦的).”‎ Not everyone thinks that Instagram is harmful, though. Some people say it might even be good for teens. Why? Unlike many ads and magazines, Instagram includes photos ‎ of all different kinds of people. That means you’re more likely to see a photo of someone who looks like you.‎ ‎ Plus, studies show that many people who use social media feel more connected to friends. And social media users are more likely to know about big events in the lives of friends and family. So maybe it’s OK to love Instagram... as long as you love yourself too.‎ ‎32. According to the text, Instagram brought Essena________.‎ A. a healthy lifestyle B. fame and money ‎ C. many true friends D. a perfect teenage life ‎33. Why did Essena shut down her Instagram account at age 18?‎ A. Because she was too busy. B. Because her shape changed.‎ C. Because she faced great pressure. D. Because her photos were deleted.‎ ‎34. What’s the author’s attitude towards Instagram?‎ A. Worried B. Curious. C. Surprised D. Supportive.‎ ‎35. What does the text mainly discuss?‎ A. Should you be on a diet to look perfect?‎ B. Should you make friends on social media?‎ C. Should you give others “likes” on Instagram?‎ D. Should you shut down your Instagram account?‎ 第二节 七选五 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余 Most of us in China are used to paying for everything with our phones. 36 At least, this was the case for Lim Swee Say from Singapore, who found his first experience with Chinese payment methods quite impressive.‎ Lim was waiting in line to buy nuts at a street stall( 货摊) in Shanghai and saw other customers show their phone and take the nuts without giving over any cash. 37 It seems that Singapore falls behind in mobile payments. Some Chinese tourists find it inconvenient when they have to use cash in Singapore.‎ ‎ 38 According to Xinhua News Agency, many countries now accept mobile payment services for Chinese tourists, with WeChat Pay covered in 13 overseas countries and ‎ regions and Alipay over 200. It’s now common to see the familiar green or blue logos in tourist destinations around the world, from a tiny shop in the Scottish Highlands to a huge department store in New York.‎ Mobile payments are now a normal part of life in China, and the trend is sweeping other nations. According to Forrester Research, in America, mobile payments rose by 37 percent in 2016. 39 This may be partly because western mobile payment services require businesses to install(安装) expensive equipment before customers can use them. 40 ‎ A. While in China, all it takes is a QR code (二维码) and a phone.‎ B. The popularity of Chinese mobile payments has pushed some foreign companies to accept them. ‎ C. Foreign tourists don’t like to pay w ith their mobile phones .‎ D. But for foreign visitors w ho aren’t familiar w ith this method, it may seem strange.‎ E. He couldn’t help wondering how they got paid.‎ F. Still, Chinese mobile payments were nearly 50 times greater than those in the US. ‎ G. Soon after, he realized that the customers were using WeChat Pay.‎ 第三部分：完形填空(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ In the middle of town lived an old man.
