“Who needs a shopping mall if you have Taobao?” said Wang Lin, 28, a writer in Beijing.

Taobao, China’s largest online shopping site, has become an important part of Wang Lin’s life. She spends lots of money on Taobao.

A growing number of Chinese Internet users like Wang Lin have found the joys of online shopping. Most online shoppers are students or young people. More women shop online than men. Clothing and home-use products (产品)are the most popular online.

It was reported that more than 250 billion yuan was spent on online shopping last year, 80% through Taobao.

Taobao means “looking for treasure” in Chinese. People can find almost everything they need on Taobao, from clothes to books, from candies to DVD players.

You may question the security(安全)of online shopping, Wang Lin said, “It’s very safe and convenient. Unless(除非) you receive the products from the sellers and are satisfied with them, the shop owner will not get the money. You can also get your money back if you want to return the products.”

In China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn’t much work there. Services such as hospital and transport are usually much better in the city than in the countryside. They hope that their lives will improve when they move to the city.

①    But in the big cities of Europe like London or Paris, people are moving out of the city. These rich families want to live a quieter life. They are tired of (厌倦) the noise and the dirt of the city, and they are tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses. They don’t want to live in the cities any more. They want a house with a garden in the countryside, and breathe the fresh air there.  ②

So they move out of the cities. Some don’t go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities. Other people move to the real countryside with sheep, cows and green fields. There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.

③      After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake. They don’t make so much money and there isn’t much work to do. People in the countryside are very different and aren’t always very friendly. ④

So quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city. “It’s wonderful to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights.” they say.

62. Which is NOT the reason for people moving to the cities in China?

A. The countryside is much poorer than the city.

B. People in the countryside have nothing to eat.

C. People in the countryside don’t have much work to do.

D. Services in cities are better than those in the countryside.

63. Some rich families in Europe move to the countryside because______.

A. they hope to find good jobs            B. they are tired of living in the city

C. they can make more money            D. they like to feed sheep and cows

64. Where should the sentence “Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy.” be put?

A.①         B.②       C.③        D.④

65. This passage mainly talks about ______.

A. a happy life in the countrysideB. living in the city

C. moving out or moving backD. living in the countryside

B任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分)

A) 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填写表格，每空限填一词。

In today’s society, everyone is busy and running at a fast pace(步调) every day. We feel our time is valuable and needs to be used well. We need cheap meal ideas that can help us save time and money and still provide a healthy and nutritious (有营养的) dinner for us and our family.

The fast food makers know we have little time and that the idea of cooking dinner after a long day at work is not something we look forward to. So the fast food makers offer us cheap food that requires no cooking, no cleaning, and only 25 minutes to pick up.

But eating so much fast food will cause body fatness and fast food is not nutritious, so it’s not the healthiest choice to consider. There are some very cheap meal ideas that take almost no time to prepare and will make coming home for a good meal more enjoyable.

The first cheap meal idea is one dish which includes meat, vegetables and rice. This is not only a cheap meal idea, but also it is fast because it can be made in only 20 minutes.

You can quickly make some pancakes and scrambled eggs for the family in about 30 minutes. If you think it is strange to eat breakfast food for dinner, consider how the same foods give you what you need to go through a whole day.

Another cheap meal idea to try is a “macaroni and cheese with meat” dish, which only takes around 20 minutes to cook.

If you are interested in these cheap meal ideas, you’re welcome to visit our website for details. When you fix one of these or other cheap meal ideas at home, you are taking time out of your busy day to treat yourself and your family in a special way.
