宝山区More and more shoppers are buying things online these days, allowing them to avoid 51 salespeople and long lines at checkout counters. In spite of online convenience, 52 , there are some items like clothes that customers prefer to 53 before buying. In light of this, two companies are finding ways to modernize stores and 54 the gap between online and in-store retail (零售).A software company that also happens to sell designer jeans, Hointer has created a fast and painless shopping 55 for its customers. Shoppers walk into a Hointer store and select one of the many pairs of jeans 56 down from bars. Then they point their smartphones at the tag and 57 the Hointer app, after which they select the size and press “try on.” The app then directs them to a specific dressing room. German-made robots bring out the 58 jeans and deliver them through a chute (斜槽) to the dressing room in about 30 seconds. Immediately after 59 pairs of jeans are dropped through another chute, the “outbox,” they disappear from the list in the app.Purchases at Hointer are made with a swipe (刷卡) of a credit card. And interacting with a salesperson is optional! This allows Hointer to hire fewer people and focus on their ultimate goal: developing 60 that supports a retail revolution.Mens clothing retailer Bonobos has 61 a more personalized shopping experience. Although it is in fact an online retailer, Bonobos has decided to open a handful of brick-and-mortar stores called Guideshops. Shoppers make a(n) 62 online before arriving at a Guideshop, where they receive one-on-one 63 from a fitting guide. Because these shops have limited inventories (存货), shoppers arent able to take home the outfits they select. But guides help shoppers make online purchases before they leave, after which the items will be 64 to customers in one or two days. While Hointer focuses on convenience, Bonobos Guideshops focus on customer service. But both efforts have one thing 65 : giving clothing retailers a new look for the 21st century.51.

Some health care systems in the United States now 53 Virtual (虚拟的) Urgent Care. Patients see a doctor by video chat without having to leave home. Diana Rae, a nurse educator in the Franciscan Health System recently 54 how Virtual Urgent Care works. She used an iPad tablet and skypethe video chat service.Doctor Green has the patient describe her 55 ; then the doctor performs a physical exam by demonstrating what he wants her to do. Doctor Green decides that the problem is a common 56 . For medicine, he prescribes (开药方) an antibiotic (抗生素). He says about 3 out of 4 patients have 57 problems that can be treated like thisthrough Virtual Urgent Care, which means a video chat could 58 a visit to the doctors office.“Patients safety is really important to us. So if we feel it is not 59 for the patient to be treated in this manner, were going to suggest other 60 for them,” said Green.The Franciscan Health System is based in Tacoma, Washington. It 61 $35 for this kind of virtual house call, which is much pfzhizuo less than the cost of going to an emergency room, a doctors office or an urgent care clinic.After trying the video conference, Diana Rae says she would be 62 to pay the $35 when she was recently home with a bad cold. “I would have paid twice that for the 63 of getting taken care of without having to sit in a waiting room, wait, and get 64 everyone elses germs,” Rae said.Franciscan operates hospitals and clinics and has a deal with a company called Carena to add effective urgent care by Skype or phone. Carena is one of several companies doing this kind of work around the country. But a company official says state rules have not kept 65 with developments in telemedicine.51.

They all have ginger hair, or as people usually say, they are all “redheads”. Britain may be the most red-headed country in the world. About 1 to 2 percent of the worlds population has red hair, but in the UK the numbers are much 52 , with 13 percent of Scots, 10 percent of the Irish, and 6 percent of people in England having red hair. Scientists have tried to explain why some people have red hair or some time and now they may have ound an answer: the dull 53 in Britain. “I think its to do with sunshine,” said Alistair Moat, the headmaster o St Andrews University, UK. The human body needs vitamin D from 54 , but unortunately people living in Britain do not have enough of it because of its marine climate. 55 , Britain gets even more cloud than countries in the ar north of Europe. In Sweden, or example, the average daily hours o sunshine is 5.4. In Scotland it is only 3.1 hours. To 56 this, the DNA o people living in these areas has changed 57 ; scientists call this a (变异). Originally, the 58 on our body is a mixture of two kinds of (黑色素) black melanin and red/yellow melanin, but with certain parts of DNA 59 , the production o black melanin is restricted while only red/yellow melanin is made. The 60 is red hair, light skin color, (雀斑) and a greater 61 to sunlight. “We need 62 skin to get as much vitamin D from the sun as possible,” added Moat. 63 , whats more interesting is that the redhead DNA mutation is recessive, which means it is hidden and can often 64 generations without showing. “At least 1.6 million Scots carry a red-head gene mutation, and most are 65 that they do,” Moat said. This is why a person who does not have red hair can still produce red-haired children if he or she is a carrier o this special DNA. 51. A. in private B. in common C. in particular D. in reality 52.

These days, homeschooling in America is 51 .Teaching methods at homeschooling 52 . Some parents follow a strict timetable and 53 a traditional school environment. Other parents follow an extreme form of homeschooling in which they do not give grades or tests and allow their children to study wherever they want. More parents, however, follow the middle 54 to provide a balance between freedom and discipline.Why do parents choose homeschooling? Some believe that children in public schools experience too much “peer pressure”, or social pressure from friends. They say it may have a 55 effect on the childs studies. Other parents are dissatisfied with the quality of education in the public school. About half the parents who teach at home are 56 motivated and use lessons by mail or Internet from church schools. Whatever the 57 may be, it is evident that more and more children are being taken out of normal schools every year. 58 , many questions have emerged, encouraging the debate over home schooling against public schooling.What then is the future of education? Although children often learn well at home, weak regulations in most states mean that officials rarely challenge or 59 parents who say they are home-schooling. As the 60 continues, so do the questions about what home schoolers are studying at home. How can parents ensure that their children are prepared academically for college? How are home schoolers 61 to make sure they are getting the same educational standards that school students must have? Recent studies in the United States have shown that homeschooled children tend to be slightly better in subjects like English and art, but they are obviously less 62 math and science. Finally, there are questions regarding the childrens emotional development. Are they too 63 their fellow students? Are they 64 the opportunity to get the social benefits of being in a large classroom of students? As with any debatable issue, the answers to these questions are never 65 . 51.

To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines; a never-ending flood of words. In getting a job advancing, the ability to read and comprehend _51_ can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are _52_ readers. Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early age, and never _53_ them. The main shortage lies in the actual stuff of language itself words. Taken individually, words have little_54_ until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. Unfortunately, _55_, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously read one word at a time, often regressing to _56_ words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over what you have just read, is a common _57_ habit in reading. Another bad habit which _58_ the speed of reading is vocalization sounding each word either _59_ or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an accelerator, which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set a slightly _60_ rate than the reader finds comfortable, in order to “_61_” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, making word-by-word reading, regression and sub-vocalization, practically _62_. At first comprehension is _63_ speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, but your comprehension will improve. Many people have found their reading skill _64_ improved after some training. Take Charles Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute before the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that now he can go through a lot more reading material in a(n) _65_ period of time. 51.

In Asia and Europe _51_, there has been a tendency to _52_ the age at which school children begin to learn a foreign language, since it is believed that the earlier a child starts to learn a foreign language, the greater the ultimate achievement will be.In many countries, the language of education is not the same as the language of the home for_53_ children. Furthermore, in many countries, young language learners comprise the most rapidly growing segment of the elementary (primary) school population._54_ in some schools there is no
