Whenever you see the old film, even on made as early (26) as ten years before, you can't help being strucked (27) by the appearance of the woman taking part. Their hair-styles and make-up look dated; their shirts look either too long nor too short; their general appearance (28) is, in fact, slightly ludicrous. The men taking part, on the other hand, are clearly recognizable. There is

something about their appearance to suggest they belong (29) to an entirely different age. This illusion is created by changed fashions. Over the years, the great (30) majority of men has successfully resisted all attempts (31) to make them to change their style of dress. The (32) same cannot be said for women. Each year a few so-call top designers in Paris and London lay down (33) on the law and women the whole world over run to (34) obey. The decrees of the designers are unpredictable and dictatorial. Sometimes they decide arbitrarily that skirts will be short and waists will be height; hips (35) are in and buttons are out. 27. strucked改29. something30. changed改26. the改为an 28. nor改为or 为struck 改为nothing 为changing 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 31. has改为32. 去掉to have 您的答案: 您的答案:

When Zhou liang answered the doorbell recently, he was rather astonished to see what he had purchased on the Internet only two days before sitting on his doorstep. \"I never expected to get my books so quickly,\" he told Business weekly. (26)

Li Qiang, an employee of a Beijing-based electronics company shared Zhou's experience. He said online shopping was very good

and always offered comparatively lower prices than ordinary retailer stores. (27)

Along with China's rapidly developing IT industry, online shopping is attracting the interest of more and more people.

Wang Juntao, general manager of the Electronic Business Department of Beijing-based Federal Software Co Ltd, said online

shopping had tremendous market potential giving China's large population. (28)

In mid-March, Wang's company established an online shopping center for Internet surfers.

More than 14,000 kinds of goods are available on the Federal

website, including computers, software, books and daily necessity. (29). Its online service cover 13 cities in China including Beijing, Shanghai and Nanjing. \"We have achieved great success in the three months since we launched the service,\" he said.

Figures from the company show that by mid-June, the sales volume of the website reached more than 2 million Yuan (US '240,000).Daily visitors to the site surged from 10,000 in March to30,000 in June. With the increase in the number of China's Internet users, that figure is likely to multiple,\" Wang said. (30) Industry experts say that because of the lack of appropriate payment tools, online shopping is still at a primitive stage. The Federal site is reportedly the first Chinese website that combines online shopping with online payment.

Sources from the company say that customers can use credit

cards from several banks including Bank of China and the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.

\"The application of online payment marks up a milestone for (31) the development of the online industry,\" Wand said.

However, problems such as a limited pot of Internet users, (32)

comparatively high charges on Internet surfing and traditional views (33)

on shopping have hindered the development of online shopping. \"There is still a long way to go for us to become a competent online shopping company both in and outside China,\" Wang said. He said the company planned to invest 200 million Yuan (US ' 24 million) on its shopping website by the end of 2000. (34). \"We are going to seek cooperation with domestic and oversea companies to extend the variety of our online products,\" he said. (35).

The old-age paternalism of southern Canadians over Eskimos has died more slowly in the rural villages where Eskimos have been more reluctant to voice their opinions aggressively. This has been a frustration in government officials trying to develop (26) local leadership among the Eskimos, however a blessing to (27) other departments whose plans have been received without (28) local obstruction. In rural areas the obligations of kinship often ran counter the best interests of the village and potential (29) leaders were restrained from making positive contributions to the village council. More recently, therefore, the educated (30) Eskimos have been voicing over the interests of those in (31) the rural areas. They are trying out to persuade the government (32) to recognize the rights of full-time hunters, by protecting their territories from mining and oil prospectors, for example. The efforts of this active minority is percolating through to the (33) remoter villages whose inhabitants are becoming increasingly vocal.

Continuing change is inevitable but future development policy must recognize that most Eskimos retain much of its traditional (34) outlook on life. New schemes should focus on resources that the

Eskimos are used to handling, rather than enterprises such as Mining. (35) 27. however改28. received改29. counter后加30. therefore改26. in改成to 成but 成accepted to 成however 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 31. 删去over 32. 删去over 33. is改成are 34. its改成their 35. than 后加on 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 9.

As suburbs grew, businesses moved into the new areas. Large shopping centres containing a great kind of (26) stores changed consumer patterns. The number of these centers rose from eight in the end of World War (27) II to 3,840 in 1960.With easy parking and convenient evening time, customers could avoid city shopping (28) entirely.

New highways created a better access to the suburbs and (29) its shops. The Highway Act of 1956 provided '26,000 million, the largest public work expenditure in U.S. (30) history, to build more than 64,000 kilometers of federal roads to link together all parts of the country.

Television, consequently, had a powerful impact on (31) social and economic patterns. Developing in the 1930s, (32) it was not widely marketed until after the war. In 1946 the country had about fewer than 17,000 TV sets. Three (33) years later, consumers were buying 250,000 sets a month, and by 1960 three-quarters of all families owned at least one set. In middle of the decade, the average family (34) watched television four to five hours a day. Americans of all ages grew exposed to increasingly sophisticated (35) advertisements for products said to be necessary for the good life. 26. kind改为28. time改为30. work改为27. in改为at 29. 删去a variety hours works 您的答案: 您的答案:× 您的答案: 您的答案: 您的答案: 31. 32. developing35. grew改为consequently改33. 删去about 34.

The grammatical words which play so large a part in English grammar are for the most part sharply and obviously different from the lexical words. A rough and ready difference which may seem the most obvious is that grammatical words have \"less (1) meaning\(2) \"empty\" words as opposed in the \"full\" words of vocabulary. But (3) this is a rather misled way of expressing the distinction. Although a (4) word like the is not the name of something as man is, it is very far away from being meaningless; there is a sharp difference in (5) meaning between \"man is vile\" and \"the man is vilehe is the single vehicle of this difference in meaning. (6) Moreover, grammatical words differ considerably among themselves as the amount of meaning they have even in the (7) lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words has been \"little words\". But size is by no mean a good criterion for (8) distinguishing the grammatical words of English, when we consider (9) that we have lexical words as go, man, say, car. Apart from (10) this, however, there is a good deal of truth in what some people say: we certainly do create a great number of obscurity when we omit them. This is illustrated not only in the poetry of Robert Browning but in the prose of telegrams and newspaper headlines.
