When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now. Still ,her answer surprised me: “Green tea.” As long as I can remember, she didn’t even drink Indian tea. I dutifully（孝顺的） bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian, It was a strange country How things change and how soon.！ Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done .A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment（投资）and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”. But it’s a two-way street, I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Rangalore to train in software. Meanwhile, all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China, No wonder that trade, which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to his about us$15 billion for last year and us$20 billion by 2008, a goal set by both governments, No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian（中印）century as the two countries started on January I the Sino-Indian Friendship Year. But what is still a wonder to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea. 51 Why did the mother ask for Chinese green tea? A, she was tired of Indian tea        B she had a son working in China. C she believed it had a curing effect D she was fond of Chinese products, 52 What does the author mean by “it’s a two-way street’ in paragraph 10? A. China and India have different traffic rules B.

The simple answer is that it is a global trading platform where nearly anyone can trade practically anything. People can sell and buy all kinds of products and goods. Including cars, movies and DVDs, sporting goods, travel tickets, musical instruments, clothes and shoes- the list goes on and on. The idea came from Peter Omidyar, who was born in Paris and moved to Washington when he was still a child, At high school, he became very interested in computer programming and after graduating from Tuft University in 1988, He worked for the next few years as a computer engineer. In his free time he started Bay as a kind of hobby, at first offering the service free by word of mouth. By 1996 there was so much traffic on the website that he had to upgrade（升级）and he began charging a fee to members. Joined by a friend, Peter Skill and in 1998 by his capable CEO, Meg Whitman, he has never looked back. . Even in the great. com crashes of the late 1990s,ebay has gone from strength to strength ,. It is now one of the ten most visited online shopping websites on the Internet E-Bay sells connections, not goods, putting buyer and seller into contact with each other. All you have to do is upload an e-photo, write a description, fill out a sales form and you are in business: the world is your market place. Of course for each item（商品）sold on eBay gets 1 percentage（百分数） and that is a great deal of money. Every day there are more than sixteen million items listed on eBay and eighty percent of the items are sold. 55. We learn from the text that eBay provides people with__ A a way of buying and selling goods  B a website for them to upgrade C a place to exhibit their own photos  D a chance to buy things at low prices 56. Why did Peter create eBay after graduating from university? A. For fun                       B. To make money C. For gathering the engineers       D. To fulfill a task of his company 57. From “he has never looked back “in Paragraph 2 we learn that peter_ A. did not feel lonely            B. was always hopeful C. did not think about the past     D. became more and more successful 58. How does eBay make money from its website7? A. By bringing callers together.   B. By charging for each sale C. By listing items online         D. By making e-photos.                                                                                                                                          C Rising above the names I was shopping in the supermarket when I heard a young voice. “Mom, come here! There’s this lady here my size!” The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize. I smiled and told her, “It’s okay.” Then talked to the boy, “Hi, I’m Darry Kramer. How are you?” He studied me from head to toe, and asked, “Are you a little mommy?” “Yes, I have a son,” I answered. “Why are you so little?” he asked. “It’s the way I was born,” I said. “Some people are little. Some are tall. I’m just not going to grow any bigger.” After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy’s hand and left. My life as a little person is filled with stories like that. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents. It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness. I stand three feet nine inches tall. I was born an achondroplasia dwarf (侏儒). Despite this, I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up. I didn’t realize how short I was until I started school. Some kids picked on me, calling me names. Then I knew. I began to hate the first day of school each year. New students would always stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs. But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life. I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality. I’m 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as I’ve grown older. People are amazed when they see me driving. I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have – a great family, nice friends.” It’s the children’s questions that make my life special. I enjoy answering their questions. My hope is that I will encourage them to accept their peers (a person of the same age, class, position, etc.), whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect. 59．Why did the mother apologize to the author?       A Because the boy ran into the author.        B Because the boy laughed at the author.        C Because they boy said the author was fatter than him.        D Because the mother thought the boy’s words had hurt the author. 60．When did the author realize that she was too short?        A When she grew up.        B When she was 47 years old.        C When she began to go to school.        D When she met the boy in the supermarket. 61．Which of the following word can best replace the underlined word “diminished”? A dismissed    B increased    C. decreased     D discriminated 62．How does the author feel about people’s stares? A  Angry         B Calm.       C  Painful       D Discouraged.
