They use the internet to match people who want a service with someone who can give that service. You dont use a professional taxi service, Uber 1 you with a person with a car in your area now instead of a professional taxi service. Airbnb lets you stay in someones home. But its not all good. The owners of Uber and Airbnb are now billionaires; the people who provide the services dont earn much. Its not 2 sharing. The market value of Uber is now $69.5 billion. Uber does not follow local laws strictly. It says it is a “platform” to match drivers with passengers, but the rules are not clear, so it does not have to be responsible. It can change prices when there is more or less 3 . In 2015 there were more than 50 cases against Uber in the USA and many countries have said it broke rules. Spain, Thailand and France have stopped Uber they say it is “dangerous”. Airbnb is part of the growing sharing economy and a business model run by network technologies. It was started in 2008 and located in San Francisco, California. Every day some people list their homes, while others discover and 4 houses around the world through Airbnb. At the same time, Airbnb helps to build up 5 and friendship between strangers. Airbnb makes 6 guest houses go out of business, not big, rich hotels. It says that many of its hosts are “artistic” and not rich. But we know from research that a lot of the Airbnb hosts are now rich people who owns more than one house. ( ) 1.

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.(A) If we live a natural, open-air life, we shall have little need of doctors or medicine. Many of our grandmothers ideas on how to keep well have c 1 in recent years. Better habits of life have almost taken the place of medicine. It was believed that night air was largely r 2 for fevers and colds. Doctors now say that one of the surest ways to keep well is to live and sleep in the open air. I have slept in the open air for some time in winter at the temperature of six degrees b 3 zero. Of course it is foolish for anyone to sleep in rain or snow. The whole idea of open-air sleeping is to b 4 fresh air instead of the air full of dust and germs (病菌). If we become outdoor sleepers, coughs and colds will be almost unknown. One can almost tell a man who sleeps in the open by looking at him. His eye is clear and his cheek rosy. There is no surer way to become well and strong than to get used to this habit. Then you can laugh at the doctor and t 5 the medicine bottles away. I know that many parents will not agree with me, and they will feel that to advise a boy to sleep in the open when the weather is extremely cold is almost like inviting them to his death. It is a fact that everyone would be h 6 and happier if they followed this idea. Some doctors have already agreed on this method of sleeping for sick people. In some h 7 even babies are given open-air treatment(治疗). I have been free from any sign of coughs or colds. In the past two years, I have been an outdoor sleeper. Snow sometimes covered the foot of the bed and cold winds blew about my head. 1. c_ 2. r_ 3. b_ 4. b_ 5. t_ 6. h_ 7. h_(B) For thousands of years, poetry has been the favorite t_1_ of literature for many people in China. There were many famous poets from different periods of time in Chinese history, and thousands of their poems are still read and appreciated today. To remind people of those classical Chinese poems and to promote cultural heritage（遗产）, China Central Television (CCTV) has produced a TV show - Chinese Poetry Competition. B_2_ of it, more and more people have become interested in poems.Wu Yishu,16, who studies at the High School Affiliated to Fudan University in Shanghai, came out on t_3_. Once in the game “Feihualing”, she recited lines from the Classic of Poetry（诗经）, one of the e_4_ collections of poems in China: “In July, the crickets are in the field; In August, they are in the yard; In September, they are at the door; In October, the crickets enter and crawl under our beds.”“I r_5_ admire her knowledge of poems,” said Huang Zijin, 16, a senior 2 student from Ningbo High School in Zhejiang Province. “The first time I saw her wear traditional Han clothing on TV, I was very impressed by her classical looks. Whats more, she always seems so calm throughout the show, which is very u_6_ for her age.” As the old saying goes: “One who is filled with knowledge always behaves with elegance.1. t_ 2.
