The money you pay doesnt go directly to the seller. Instead, it goes through Alipay, which keeps your money for a while. After you receive your goods and click the confirm receipt button, Alipay then gives the money to the seller.The process is called third party online payment. There is a transfer station, or a third account, between sellers and buyers to make online shopping safe. Buyers dont need to worry about paying for goods and then receiving nothing. Sellers also get rid of the risk of receiving no money after sending out goods.These transfer stations are usually set up by payment service companies such as Alipay, Tenpay and Yeepay. Among them, Alipay is the biggest in China. It has more than 270 million active users, according to Xinhua.While most online sellers and shoppers like the third party online payment system, banks are not very happy. That is because companies like Alipay are fighting over money with the banks. Users can invest in financial products through Alipay and make money. Thus lots of people choose to put money in Alipay rather than in banks.But WeChat payment is not the same. WeChat doesnt have its own account. When paying through WeChat, the buyers money goes directly to the sellers. Thats why so many people are excited about receiving and handing out red envelopes or gift money to their friends on WeChat.Whether Alipay or WeChat payment, they are all trying to attract more users and make online shopping easier. These two companies are also promoting payments through fingerprints. New payment methods such as quick response codes have become popular too.（1）How many ways to pay are mentioned in the passage?

Many experts（专家） use it to tell people its important to have a good eating habit. For example, too much sweet food makes a person overweight. To avoid being fat, kids are told to keep off sweet food. However, a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food.When we say some people sweet, we mean they are kind and friendly to us. Perhaps this word can help us learn more about peoples feelings and acts. said Brian Meier, a scientist from the study team. Taste is something we experience every day. What we have done is to find whether we can know someones character and behavior depending on their taste.In one of their experiments, college students were asked questions about their character- whether, for example, they were soft-hearted or not. Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food. According to their answers, the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer.In their another experiment, the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need, and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips werent. For example, people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city, visit sick children in the hospital and so on.The result of the experiments is that peoples helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food. So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful. Next time, try some ice-cream.（1）The underlined word it in the sentence Many experts use it to tell people its important to have a good eating habit. refers to_.A . the sweet foodB . the English sayingC . the American teamD . the eating habit（2）According to the result of the experiments, sweet food makes people_.A . overweightB . excitedC . relaxedD . friendly（3）The scientists found that the people who preferred_ were less helpful.A . chipsB . chocolateC . ice-creamD . cookies（4）It can be learnt from the passage that_.A . scientists asked college students questions about their futureB . scientists told college students not to eat sweet foodC . people with a sweet tooth are more willing to help othersD . peoples character has nothing to do with their taste5. （10分）阅读理解Only a RibbonIn one of the London hospitals，a short time ago，there was a young doctor.
