it for a moment.On the Internet，a big online company can be run by only two guys in their garage.So it is only reasonable then，that people shopping online would be a little leery of the security levels.Internet giants such as Microsoft knew consumer confidence was the key to getting virtual(虚拟的) shopping off the ground，and they work hard to make people feel safe to shop online.Credit card companies，too，quickly saw the potential for online shopping，and have installed things like online shopping insurance for people.If you ever have a problem with your online credit purchases，many credit card companies will happily refund(退还) your money and then set their claws on the company that wronged you.Now thats buying power!There are other bonuses for online shoppers，of course.No lineups，for one.No annoying mall shopping carts with broken wheels and kids crying because their parents wont get them what they want.When shopping online，consumers can sit down，have a coffee，and wear their slippers，not having to worry about their hair or parking，and just clicking through sale after sale.Comparison shopping couldnt be any easier.And thanks to courier companies(快递公司) getting in on the act，you never need to wait longer than a day or two to get those all important purchases delivered right to your door.No wonder so many companies are shaking their heads at traditional advertising and instead looking to the“virtual” world to attract online shoppers.5Whats the meaning of the underlined word “leery” in the first paragraph?Aconfident BdoubtfulChopeful

意为“猜疑的，怀疑的”。doubtful感到怀疑的，不确定的，与其词义相近。6Consumer confidence in online shopping mainly relies on .Afreedom of shoppingBshopping convenienceCsecurity in shoppingDInternet access答案C解析细节理解题。根据文章第二段可知，现在一些像微软这样的互联网巨头也知道消费者对于这种虚拟的购物很担心，所以他们尽力让人们感觉到网络购物很安全。7The following have made contributions to the popularity of online shopping EXCEPT .AInternet giantsBtraditional advertisersCcourier companiesDcredit card companies答案B解析细节理解题。根据文章中的“Internet giants”，“credit card companies”以及“courier companies(快递公司)”等的说明可以判断出，它们对于网购的普及起了很大的推动作用，故选B项。8What does the author think of the current online shopping?ASafe，fast but unrealistic.BCheap，convenient but unsafe.CReliable，popular but slow.DSafe，convenient and fast.答案D解析推理判断题。根据文意可以判断出，现在网购变得越来越安全、便利和快速。故选D项。.阅读填空Although
