percent of the Chinese population responsible forone-third of the worlds luxury items.As Chinas economy develops quickly,the market opportunities for all sorts ofluxury goods and services are increasing.Luxury consumption in China now extendsways beyond well-known car,clothing and jewelry brands.For example,the luxuryjet market in China is the fastest-growing in the world,even outstripping that ofthe United States,with a market share of 25 percent.This trend appears to continue,with 20 to 30 percent growth expected in China,compared with only 2 to 3 percentin the US.But more importantly,Chinas luxury jet market growth represents a majordevelopment in the private consumption of luxury items.Chinas high-quality red wine market also provides evidence of the growth in创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日private consumption of luxury goods.In 2021,China became the largest market forred wine in the world,even overtaking France,with 1.86 billion bottles consumedin China last year.Over the past five years,Chinas red wine consumption has grown136 percent.According to my ongoing consumer research in this area while working at theUniversity of International Business and Economics in Beijing,public consumptionof such expensive global luxury brands such as Prada and Armani is easily explainedby the desire to“gain face and publicly display social climbing through materialpossessions.On the other hand,it is“self reward that lies behind consumermotivation in this area.Chinese consumers who have experienced rapid financial andeconomic gains appear to be in particular need of rewarding themselves for theirsuccess.But thishas little to do with“gaining face and impressing others andmuch more to do with the need for personal satisfaction.Finally,the growth in private luxury consumption in China is set to continuein part due to the maturity of the Chinese consumer and advancement of Chineseconsumer culture generally.7.What do you think the author would most probably be?A.A news reporter.B.A salesman.professor.D.A conductor.C.A8.The underlined word“outstripping in Paragraph 2 probably means“_A.falling far behind ofB.going out ofC.going far ahead of D.keeping pace with创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日9.What can be the best title for the passage?A.Future Private Luxury Consumption in ChinaB.Chinese Appetite for Luxury Goods and ServicesC.The Potential Luxury Jet Market in ChinaD.The Maturity of the Chinese ConsumersDDoes stress cause gray hair?Many people believe that tension and stress cancause your hair to lose its color.In fact,it is an old-wives tale that beingupset all the time can result in premature graying.Here is a closer look at thissituation and why some believe that this old wives tale could be true.As one ages,the hairs on the head also age.In fact,just about everything onthe human body begins to show signs of wear and tear(磨损)after a while.The jointswear and become stiff and skin wears and becomes wrinkled.Hairs on the head growand eventually die.They are replaced,but in the process something else happens.When new hairs are replacing the old ones,the color or pigment(色素)is alsoadded to them.However,as one ages,this pigment becomes less and less available.At first,hairs will have a limited amount of pigment and they will appear to begrayish in color.In time,they will lose all of their pigment and will be white.Many things are known to cause graying,and genetics is a very powerful factor.Ifone of your parents turns gray at an early age,there is a good chance that you willtoo.Some people begin the graying process in high school,while others may be overthe age of forty.创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日Constant worry and tension can have many harmful effects on the human body.Itis a known fact that stressful times can cause one to suffer hair loss.It wouldmake sense that if it can cause these problems,perhaps it also may contribute tograying.However,there is no sound evidence to support this.On the other hand,manymedical professionals believethat there may be a linkbetween graying and a constantstate of anxietyor tension.Does stresscause grayhair?There is no scientific evidence to support the theory,but it is best to avoidstressful situations.10.The underlined phrase in the first paragraph most probably means_.A.clever remarksB.silly remarksC.excitingremarksD.disappointed remarks11.The second paragraph mainly tells us _.A.every part of body is replaced with ageB.hairs will grow weak but notdieC.skin becomes wrinkled with ageD.every part of body ages with age12.What might play the most important role in the graying process?A.Genetics and the amount of sleeping time.B.The amount of food people eat and living environment.C.The amount of pigment and genetics.D.Genetics and the amount of water people drinkEThe Taj Mahal,in Agra,India,is one of the most brilliant structures on Earth.创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日创 作人：历恰面日 期：二 零 二二 年 1 月 1 日It is nearly 400 years old.Emperor Shah Jahan had it built in memory of his wife.It took about 20 years to build the monument.Some 20,000
