Now satellites are helping to forecast(預報)the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere(大氣), because this is where the weather forms(形成). They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists(氣象學家)can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.
Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare(比較)them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.
So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead(提前).

For several years, Americans have enjoyed tele shopping --- watching TV and buying things by phone. Now tele-shopping is starting in Europe (歐洲). In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, food, toys and many other things.
Tele shopping is becoming popular in Sweden, for example. The biggest Swedish company sells different kind of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made $100 million. In France there are two about $20 million a year to buy things through those channels.
In Germany, until last year tele-shopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day. Then the government (政府) allowed more tele-shopping. Other channels can open for tele-business, including (包括) the largest American tele-shopping company and a 24—hour tele- shopping company. German businesses are hoping this new tele shopping will help them sell more things.
Some people like tele-shopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason. But at the same time, other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They call tele-shopping “Junk (垃圾) on the air”. Many Europeans usually worry about the quality (質量) of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them, and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.
The need for high quality means that European tele-shopping companies will have to be different from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.
shopping is ______ in Europe.
A. not popular B. growing C. not possible D. cheap
le like tele-shopping because it is _____.
A. very interesting B. cheaper C. easier D. more popular
Europeans don’t like tele-shopping because they ______.
A. don’t like to buy things B. don’t watch TV
C. believe the things on TV are expensive D. think the things sold on TV are bad quality
Germany, tele-shopping may _______.
A. help businessmen get more money B. keep the shops open longer
C. have fewer buyers D. bring better TV programs
best title of this passage is _______.
A. American Tele-shopping B. Tele-shopping Companies
C. Tele-shopping in Europe D. Tele shopping—Junk on the air
這篇短文主要介紹了在歐美國家新興的一種購物方式----電視購物。由於不出家門就能購買自己所需的東西，還能緩解城市的交通壓力，所以這種購物方式深得一些人的喜愛。不過，一些歐美人士並不喜歡這種購物方式，他們擔心商品的質量是否有保證。為了確保售出商品的`質量，歐洲電視購物公司將更加認真、努力地工作。
參考答案：
1.B “Now tele-shopping is starting in Europe.”，由starting一詞顯然可知答案為B。
2.C 看了電視，然後打個電話就能購買自己所需要的東西，顯然是容易多了。故答案要選C。
3.D 答案的出處是“Many Europeans usually worry about the quality (質量) of the things for sale on TV.”一句。
4.A “German businesses are hoping this new tele shopping will help them sell more things.”，由此不難看出這些商人通過電子購物可能會發更大的財。
5.C 該文從美國的電子購物寫起，詳細介紹了歐洲幾個國家開展電子購物的情況。所以正確答案為C。

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (過錯). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame (受責備), and few of us know that it is just his own fault.
Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.
main reason for one’s poor memory is that _________.
father or mother may have a poor memory
does not use his arms or legs for some time
memory is not often used
can’t read or write

A. you can’t use them any more

如果某個人的記憶力不好，大部分人會認為這是受其父母遺傳的影響。其實這是他自己的過錯。他應該拿出更多的機會鍛鍊自己的記憶力。本文告訴我們這樣一個道理：“用則進，不用則廢。”
參考答案：
1.C 答案就在“…he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.”中。
2.D “…when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again.”一句是解題的依據。
3.A B、C、D三個選項的意思在文中都有明確的說明。
4.C 根據倒數第二段的論述，可知那些不會讀和寫的人只好去記諸如日期、名字、故事等之類的東西。他們的記憶力自然是始終能得到鍛鍊。
5.B 整篇文章都是圍繞如何有一個好的記憶力來寫的。結尾一段，點明主旨，也是本題的題眼。
