that way they could do business online.that is how alibaba began. his company grew quickly. but that doesnt mean everything went smoothly for ma. alibaba had a difficult time in 2000, when many internet companies failed. he was successful because he managed to attract investment into his company.but there is a deeper reason.it is mas attitude. “you deserve(值得) to live your dream,” he said. “everyone thought i was daydreaming when i started. but the most important thing is that we believed in our dream from day one, to today and tomorrow. of course we made many mistakes, but we never gave up hope.”besides the determination(决心), ma is also smart. for him, success in business is like trying to catch a rabbit. “if there are nine rabbits, focus on catching onedont try and catch them all,” he said. “change your ways if you need to, but dont change the rabbit. get one first, put it in your pocket and then catch the others.”54. what does the word “it” in the first paragraph refer to（所指）?a. the young hero ali baba. b. the phrase “open sesame”. c. the old story. d. the website.55. from paragraph 2, we know that ma yun _.a. was working in an internet company in the us b. started to learn about computers in 1995c. was determined to buy and sell chinese beer d. wanted to produce chinese personal computers.56. what happened to ma yun in 2000?a. he attracted investment during a difficult time. b. his company grew quickly and smoothly.c. his internet company failed like many others. d. he founded his own company.57. what is the main idea of the last paragraph?a. mas good qualities. b. the importance of working hard. c. mas hobbycatching rabbits. d. the secrets of mas success.cnearly half of elementary and high schools in the us use the presidential fitness test. it checks kids fitness levels. students are tested at least twice a year. in 1956, us president eisenhower created the test, and it has been a tradition in schools since 1966.there are five activities in the test: sit-ups(仰卧起坐), push-ups(俯卧撑), sit and reach, endurance run or walk and shuttle run(折返跑). students who get scores at or above 85 percent on all the activities can get a presidential physical fitness award.the test encourages students to live a healthy and active life. students taking the test are really testing their limits, according to the us national association for sport and physical education.china has a similar test: the physical education(pe) test. beginning at the age of 7, students in china are tested twice a year to check if they are healthy and strong. they also finish activities like the endurance run, sit-ups and the shuttle run.however, unlike students in the us who get awards, chinese students get points in pe tests. the highest score is 100. for junior school students, the pe test is more important because it is worth 30 to 40 points in the entrance exam for senior high school. in order to get a good score, most students begin to prepare for the test in their junior one year.58. how many years has the presidential fitness test been a tradition in schools?

if you have, heres the device for you: the virtual(虚拟的) fitting room.the technology, designed by russian company ar door, was first tried out in may. when a customer walks into a “fitting” room, theyll stand in front of a big screen that looks like a mirror. a camera in the mirror, using microsoft kinect, monitors a customers movement and projects a 3-d image of the clothes onto you while you stand before a screen.the room also uses augmented reality technology. “augmented reality allows the customers to select an item of clothing without having to try it on physically,” the company told the daily mail. a customer can spin around to see all angles(角度) of the clothes, and can control the program by pushing virtual buttons.ar door is not the only company to be developing technology to help people with the way they look. japanese company shiseido recently presented its magic mirror, a virtual make-up mirror that allows people to get a full makeover in seconds.however, the technology is not perfect. the clothes still seem to hang on the surface of the body, rather than look like the customer is actually wearing them. and people shopping for clothes are probably still better off actually trying them on.in the end, you wont know how something really looks and feels.62. the virtual fitting room is technology that_. a. allows people to watch a movie while trying on clothes b. can help people buy clothes on the internet c. allows people to walk freely in the fitting room d. can help people select clothes without having to try them on63. which of the following is not true?
