[单项选择]Sharon Suarez has been looking forward to the day when she won’t have to carry groceris(食品杂货) from her car to her house. That day has come. A growing number of people are shopping on the Internet.
"I’ve never done it, but it sounds great." Miss Suarez said. "It is so hot here in the summer. It’s also relly cold in the winter. I would love to stay inside and have the groceries come to me" Of course, people already buy books, do their banking, and shop for presents on the Internet.But when they need to shop for food, most still get in the car and go to the supermarket.

[多项选择]Every day we read a lot of books, from our textbooks to some magazines or romantic stories. Have you ever thought about the speed or the rate of reading
Some people read very rapidly; others read very slowly. A rapid reader may say, "I read a long story in one evening." However someone who reads slowly perhaps say, "I read slowly, but carefully. And I am familiar with every detail (细节)." So who do you think is the better reader The slow reader or the rapid reader
In my opinion, the key question is not the speed. That is to say, we cannot draw a conclusion that the rapid reader is the good reader, or the slow reader is good. It depends on what we are reading and what’s our purpose of reading. If you are a rapid reader, you may be a good reader when you read a story book for fun, and it will not take you too much time. But when you have to read a textbook or a research report, you’d better slow your speed and read it word by word to avoid making any possible mistake. On the oth

Thirst for Oil
Worldwide every day, we devour the energy equivalent of about 200 million barrels of oil. Most of the energy on Earth comes from the Sun. In fact enough energy from the Sun hits the planet’s surface each minute to cover our needs for an entire year, we just need to find an efficient way to use it. So far the energy in oil has been cheaper and easier to get at. But as supplies dwindle, this will change, and we will need to cure our addiction to oil.
Burning wood satisfied most energy needs until the steam-driven industrial revolution, when energy-dense coal became the fuel of choice. Coal is still used, mostly in power stations, to cover one quarter of our energy needs, but its use has been declining since we started pumping up oil. Coal is the least efficient, unhealthiest and most environmentally damaging fossil fuel, but could make a comeback, as supplies are still ple.ntiful; its reserves are five times larger than
A. The United States
B. Russia
C. Norway
D. Venezuela
