① Learning a language is, in some ways, like learning how to fly or play the piano. There
are some differences, but there is a very important similarity. It is this: learning how to do
such things needs lots of practice. It is never enough simply to “know” something. You
must be able to “do” things with that to know. For example, it is not enough simply to
read a book on how to fly an aeroplane. A book can give you lots of information about how
to fly, but if you only read a book and then try to fly without a great deal of practice first,
you will crash and kill yourself. The same is true of learning the piano or learning foreign
language. Can you speak English well without having lots of practice? “Practice makes
perfect” is what every learner of a foreign language should know.
1. There are similarities between learning a language and learn to fly.
________

Online shopping offers consumers the opportunity to shop from the comfort of their
own home. According to those who sit at their computer and shop, the greatest benefit
of this is that it saves time. They feel it is quicker to surf the Internet in search of
goods than to travel to and from traditional retail outlets to do their shopping.
In addition to reducing the amount of time spent shopping, the Internet also provides
customers with the chance to make purchases from shops around the world. The
variety of goods available on the Internet is far greater than that available even in the
largest of shopping centers.
Moreover, purchases can be made without the interference of sale staff, whose
presence is often unwanted. How many of us have returned from a shopping trip with
something we didn’t really want? We have often been talked into buying it by a
highly persuasive sales assistant. The online shopper, however, can spend hours
looking at the goods on sale in one shop without feeling under any obligation to buy.
A further advantage is that they are not limited by the opening times of shops and can
buy goods at any time of the day or night.
27. There are many advantages when we shop online. ________
28. Consumers can sit at their computer and shop online nowadays. ________
29. The Internet makes people spend a lot of time making purchases
from shops around the world. ________
30. Customers can only buy goods on the Internet at night. ________
31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The disadvantages of online shopping.
B. The modern shoppers
C. The advantages of the Internet
D. Making purchases from shops around the world on the Internet.
32. The phrase “make purchases” in line 6 is closest in meaning to
A. throw away B. spend C. go shopping D. give
