something solid. it was carlos. “my god, youre tall,” he said. of course, the class began to laugh. angry, i walked to my seat without a word. i glanced back to see if reed harrington was laughing

inches taller than i. anyway, every time i blew out my birthday candles and made a wish, it was for a date with reed harrington. “take that seat,” mr. mccarthy told the proud newcomer carlos, pointing to the only empty one, in the back of the room. carlos smiled wildly. “but i need a couple of dictionaries.” again the class laughed, but now they were laughing with carlos, not at him. he had been here only 10 minutes and already he had them on his side. it was the school elections that made me think of carlos again. reed harrington was voted president and carlos vice president. “how come?” i kept asking myself. “how come this short guy whos only been in town for a little over a month gets to be so popular?” so on that morning, i stopped carlos and said, “it doesnt seem to bother youbeing short.” he looked up at me. “of course i mind being short. but there isnt anything i can do about it. when i realized i was going to have to spend my life in this undersized skin, i just decided to make the best of it and concentrate on being myself.” “you seem to get great,” i admitted. “but what about me? nobody wants to date a girl taller than he is.” “the trouble with you is youre afraid to

lives on november 11, 1993. in china, however, singles day has become the biggest online shopping day in the world, which was created in 2009 by alibabas ceo daniel zhang to increase online sales. since then, it has grown into a cultural phenomenon. china singles day, as a shopping day, takes place on november 11 each year. there are sharp discounts and other promotions (促销) designed by alibaba

reported reuters. “within the next five years, we expect china will become the worlds largest e-commerce market for imported products,” president michael evans told reporters on wednesday. alibaba

simple but effective way to make sure it never happens again. a us company is trying to help. using a tiny microchip which is implanted into the arm, they have come up with a replacement for cash or credit cards that cannot be left at home or dropped on the bus. the verichip is about the size of a grain of rice and works using radio frequency identification technology. at a shop, a radio frequency “reader” would send a signal and the chip in your arm would respond with your unique identity number. that would give the “reader” your financial information, and money could be taken directly from your accounts and you wouldnt even have to reach for your wallet. the company also hopes to include other information on the chip, such as medical records, building security codes and passwords, making life even easier. but not everyone is happy with the developments. critics say that a lot can go wrong with the chip. a clever thief could build a fake(假的) reader that would steal your information without you knowing. so your money could still be stolen. privacy is a big issue too. stores, or even the government, only need to track the chip to find out what you buy, how much you spend and where you go. and if you wanted to get rid of your chip, you would need an operation to remove it. 32. what is the verichip?a. the identity number b. a tiny microchip c. the security

problems. d. many people have the experience of losing keys or money. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)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选项。(注意：若选e，请涂ab；若选f，请涂ac；若选g，请涂ad)anxious aboutbeing alone? dont be.
