Half a minute? A few seconds? Google engineers have discovered that even 400 millisecondsas short as the blink of an eyeis too long for most Internet users.A millisecond is one thousandth of a second. People hardly notice such a small time difference, but it does cause them to stop searching, reported The New York Times. “Without question, nobody likes to wait,” said Arvind Jain, a Google engineer. “Every millisecond matters.”Nowadays, millions of smart-phones and computers are continually gathering and sending out information. With so many people downloading maps, sports videos, news and restaurant recommendations, you can get digital “traffic jams”. Meanwhile, users are expecting faster and faster service.Google found that if one website is 250 milliseconds slower than another website, then people will visit it less often. This is why technology companies are now competing to be the fastest. Google said people do expect different things from different websites because they realize not all loading times are the same. For example, a person will be more patient waiting for a video to load than for a search result.Even so, four out of five online users will click away if a video takes too long to load. This makes it difficult for video websites to choose between the quality of pictures and fast loading times.Trying to get a higher speed has always been part of the history of the Internet. In the 1990s, when the World Wide Web first started to become popular, it was very crowded and slow; people called it the “World Wide Wait”. But engineers managed to fight the problem with new inventions. They laid a lot of fiber optic cables (光缆)for sending in high speed; they improved software so it would work more smoothly; they placed computer servers all around the world to be nearer to users; all this increased speed.Nowadays we can enjoy much faster Internet. Famous search engines such as Google and Microsofts Bing usually find search results in less than a second._35 . The report from The New York Times suggests thatAA millisecond is one thousandth of a second.B400 milliseconds is not so long for most Internet users.CA millisecond has nothing to do with the Internet speed.DA millisecond really makes a difference to the Internet users.36 . The engineers did something to improve the speed, including _.a. making software work more smoothlyb. laying a number of fiber optic cables insidec. placing computer servers throughout the worldd. developing the quality of pictures on the InternetAa b cBb c dCa c dDa b d37 . Which of the following is true according to the passage?AThe quality of pictures comes first for video websites.BGoogle is 250 milliseconds slower than other websitesCMicrosofts Bing is the fastest engine the world nowDPeople are more likely to wait for loading films than maps38 . What does the underlined sentence mean?AInternet users are willing to see more search engines set upBGoogle and Microsofts Bing should help find the searching resultsCThese companies should mind their steps, or they will break down soon.DThese companies need to catch up with the developing needs of Internet users39 . What can be the best title of this passage?ADont make me “www.wait”.BSearch engines work faster.CTraffic jams keep us waiting.DThe WWW becomes popular.Imagine having an ear made out of an apple. It seems like a crazy idea. But it could happen in the near future.Canadian biophysicist Andrew Pelling used an apple to grow a human ear. He thinks fruit and vegetables can be used to cheaply repair human body parts in the future.Scientists have been trying to grow organs in labs to replace our old ones. But its a hard job. In the past, scientists have used man-made materials, animal parts and even dead people as scaffolds（支架）. But that has proved to be difficult and expensive. Pelling and his team, however, found the apple to be a cheap and easy-to-use scaffolds.They first cut an apple into the shape of an ear. Then they used a special way to take out the apples cells（细胞）and make it a scaffold. The team then added human cells to the apple, and watched it grow. “You can implant（移植）these scaffold into the body, and the body will send in cells and a blood supply and actually keep these things alive, ” Pelling said during a Ted Talk speech.The team put the apple scaffold inside a living mouse and the mouses cells slowly take over the pieces of the apple.Now Pelling is thinking of the other fruit, plants or vegetables to use.40 . Andrew Pelling is a scientist who studiesAbody and organsBbiology and organCphysic and bodyDbiology and physics41 . What did Pelling and his team use as scaffolds?AFruits.BAnimals.Cdead peopleDman-made42 . According to Paragraph 4, the right order is_.Make the apple a scaffold.Cut an apple into the shape of an ear.Implant this scaffold into the human body.Add human cells to the apple scaffold.ABCD43 . How will the body keep the implanted scaffolds alive?ABy repairing the scaffolds.BBy replacing the scaffolds.CBy taking over the scaffolds.DBy sending in cells and a blood supply44 .
