states will have a trade war despite comments from the trump administration.jack ma is the chairman of the alibaba group. at the world economic forum meeting in davos, switzerland, he said, china and (the) u.s. will never have a trade war. give trump some time. hes open-minded, hes listening.the chinese billionaire said he would do all he could to prevent trade relations between the countries from getting worse.last week, ma met with trump at the trump tower in new york city. the chinese billionaire is said to have discussed a plan to permit one million small u.s. businesses to sell goods on alibabas online shopping platform.during the campaign and after winning the presidential election, trump strongly criticized the chinese governments support for its businesses. he blamed unfair trade policies for taking away u.s. jobs. and he said that china unfairly controls the exchange value of its currency, the yuan.trump also has threatened to place import taxes on goods from china and other countries in response to their trade policies.according to the south china morning post, ma said, american international companies made millions and millions of dollars from globalization. he added that the u.s. should not blame the loss of jobs and companies on globalization.however, a new study by an american business group says many u.s. businesses feel unwelcome in china. the companies say the cost of doing business in china is increasing. they add that rules and regulations are unclear or not enforced in a consistent way.the american chamber of commerce in china led the study, which looked at responses from 462 companies.william zarit is chairman of the chamber. he says trade policies in china make it difficult for american companies. he says, we feel that over the last few years that weve been taken advantage of to some extent, with our open market and the lack of open areas in the chinese market.another major concern for u.s. companies in china is fake products. fake products are copies of the originals that cost businesses with the legal right to sell them millions of dollars each year.ma defended alibabas efforts to fight fake products on its shopping platform. he said his company is doing all it can to fight the problem.fighting against fake products is a war against human greediness, ma said.im mario ritter.21 the underline phrase “the chinese billionaire” refers to_.a. trump b. jack ma c. mario ritter d. willian zarit22the text likely take from the_.a. economic magazine b. trade speechc. websited. global news23about this passage, the most suitable title is_.a. chinese billionaire does not see china-us trade war.b. the american international companies removed most tariffs on products traded between the u.s and china.c. group says american businesses in china concerned.d. the war about fighting against fake products.bi vividly remember walking back to my house after collecting the afternoon mails. i saw a credit card statement and or bank statements. it was in that moment that i felt a deep tension.i realized that even though i had married a man who i adored, i really didnt have a clear sense of how he handled money and how the two of us were going to combine our different approaches to handing money in our marriage. i was more organized and detailed, but he was more of a laid-hack type. i knew that getting on the same financial page was a key factor in creating a successful marriage and financial future.i asked my husband if he would be willing to set up a time each week to talk about our finances and develop a plan for getting rid of our credit card debt. my husband said he would be willing to do this. admittedly, he was skeptical(怀疑)-but willing.we came to refer to our weekly meetings as our financial dates. we didnt really have a clue as to what we were doing. all we knew was that we needed to give our finances serious attention. some dates were filled with tense conversations. other dates were filled with laughter, joy and creativity. however, we kept showing up for our dates and we never gave up. what started out as a means for survival became a powerful connecting thread in our relationship. something shifted within us.instead of our finances becoming a source of divisive（不和的）tension that pulled us apart, they became the glue（粘着剂）that held us together as we became a unified team.i still recall the day that we excitedly crossed off our last credit card payment on the chart we had created. we had finally arrived. we were free. we had been given wings to fly.now, whenever i feel huge stress i ask myself, “ how am i contributing to what is happening right now?” this gives me the great power to take action. even though my husband and i dont have any guarantee against future challenges, i am left with something deep within that is unshakable and that can never be taken away-the memory of our past successes and the power to integrate（整合）these lessons in my daytoday life.24why did the author feel nervous when collecting the afternoon mails?a. she was not sure about her marriage.b. she could feel the pressure of the huge debtc. she didnt know how to handle money.d. she was reminded of the quarrels in the family.25which word can replace the underlined word “laidback” in the second paragraph?a. relaxed b. doubtful c. cautious d. confident.26what can we learn from the financial dates?a. they showed the couple clear direction at first.b. they left the couple nothing but deep sadness.c. they were once interrupted but quickly continued.d. they strengthened the couples relationship at last.27we can infer that when faced with stress the author will_. a. try to change the situation b. focus on what contributes to it c. get power from the memory d. feel free to do what she likes cmore than one-third of adults in the united states are obese(肥胖). in fact, over obesity has reached such proportions that one big-city mayor has gone about banning large-sized, sugary soft drinks and the first lady has been on a campaign to control the dietary offerings in public schools.even many adults who do not fit the clinic definition of obesity are still overweight, and a large percentage are looking for the best ways to lose weight.reducing pounds largely comes down to the two-sided factors of diet and exercise. not carrying out the first one enough, and not getting enough of the second one, ends up giving the individual a recipe for being overweight.advising someone to eat less and exercise more might be the easiest advice possible, but its also, partially, an oversimplification. dieting has more to do with the types of food you eat than how much you eat. reduce the amount of red meat in your diet. if you dont want to eliminate red meat altogether, choose cuts of meat with less fat content. limit your intake of salt and starches. if youve got to have potato chips alongside your sandwich at lunch, choose the baked potato chips that contain less fat than the deep-fried chips. you might find youre really not sacrificing that much in terms of taste.a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, egg whites, fish and nonfat dairy products will certainly aid in the mission of losing weight. drink more water and less sugary drinks. if you have to have a soda, a diet soda is a better option, but seltzer is an even better choice than that.its importantif not always easyto make sure you get at least some physical activity each and every day. if your feet wont allow for a regular jogging regimen, then make sure you take lots of walks. next time you need to mail a letter, walk to the mailbox instead of driving. try to work in a daily walk in your neighborhood.28 you should when you want to lose weight.a. diet as well as exercise enough b. try not to fit the clinic definition of obesityc. get little exercise every dayd. focus your attention on diet only29the first lady has started a movement to .a. raise peoples awareness of healthy dietb. control the public school dietary supplyingc. ban the sugary soft drinksd. realize the importance of dieting30what can we learn from the fourth paragraph?a. we must keep far away from fat and ignore our taste.b. the simplest and best way to lose weight is to eat and exercise more.c. we should remove the red meat in our diet completely to reduce weight.d. when it comes to diet, no one needs to starve themselves in order to lose weight.31the last paragraph is mainly about .a. walkb. dietc. exercised. jog dtechnology improves our lives but ruins those of everyone who hangs out with us. i spend nearly as much of my life waiting for people im with to answer a call, text back or finish a tweet（发帖）as they do waiting for me.ive already known that owning google glass-the eyeglasses with a computer attached-will completely turn my life into a virtual reality（虚拟实境）exactly like moving my cell phone fives inches closer to my face. what i need to know is what its like to communicate with someone whos weaning google glass.i invited heather anne campbell to have lunch with me and wear her google glass the whole time. heather, a comedian who appears on the new whose line is it away?, is one of about 8000 people google chose to buy the $ 1500 device before its made available to the public.i did not think our lunch would go well since im one of the few people who believe putting your phone on the table suggests that you dont think i can tell a story as well as someone without a face or body.when heather arrived, i noticed that while she is very attractive, she looks even better wearing her google glass. shortly after sitting down, heather told me that she would never actually wear these glasses to a lunch. “its a social threat.” she explained, since by moving her head or saying an order, she could make the glasses shoot video or , worse, look me up on wikipedia, which would certainly end lunch early. besides, you cant be nearly as secret with glass as i thought: i could find when the tiny screen over her left eye was on , so id know immediately if she wasnt really paying attention.its not the technology that makes the glassbole (a person who talks to their google glass often without noticing the outside world ); its the person using the technology. theres a chance that by making the first glass wearers hand in plans on how theyd use them ,theyll set a good example. maybe, in fact, google will be responsible enough to never sell me one.32why did the author invite heather to lunch?a. to borrow her google glass.b. to talk about her new comedy.c. to interview her about the user experience.d. to experience google glass as a lunch companion.33the author didnt expect the lunch to be good because he thought_.a. he couldnt tell good stories.b. heather might not like his cooking.c. heathers google glass would be a problem.d. their lunch would be disturbed by heathers fans.34what does heather mean by saying “its a social threat” in paragraph 5?a. google glass is bad for interpersonal communication.b. google glass causes great harm to her health.c. conversation cant go on with google glass.d. one has no secrets with google glass.35whats the best title of the passage？a. heather anne campbell b. google glassc. modern communications d. the widespread use of
