Brian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris．He was wearing three shirts，a jacket，two pairs of socks，a pair of shorts，and two pairs of jeans．He was carrying one small backpack，which was very full，but he didn't have any other luggage．Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight．He found Tony near the Air France counter．Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package．
   "Give this package to Jean-Paul at the airport in Paris．He will have a sign with your name on it．I think you can find him easily，"Tony said，"You don't have any luggage，right？"
   "Only this backpack，"Brian answered．"You said I could bring one carry-on bag．"
   "That's right．One carry-on bag is fine．Have a good trip．"
   "Thanks．"
   Is Brian a criminal（罪犯）？Not at all．He is an air-courier．And he paid only ＄110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris．Air couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries．Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day．Often，the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company．It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air courier，but it is quick．

2．Tired of all the pushing in supermarkets？Fed up with waiting in endless lines to pay for what you have bought？Angry at wasting time in traffic jams only to find no parking spaces when you eventually arrive at the store？If this is you，then online shopping is the answer to your dreams of trouble-free shopping．Or is it？
   Online shopping brings its own challenges．Here are a few things to bear in mind when browsing（瀏覽） various websites．The claim made by online sites is that shopping online is a safe and secure way to make purchases．The evidence challenges this．In any case，you only have to be the victim of fraud（詐騙） once to experience all the problems that come with this form of stealing．Use only sites that have a trusted history and an excellent reputation．
   Another problem is the appearance of items in reality is often quite different from what you see on your computer screen．This might not be a problem if you are buying washing up powder but could be a major disappointment when that beautiful blue dress you ordered turns up in green．Also，product descriptions are sometimes simply untrue．Perhaps the wisest plan is to purchase items where design and color are not essential to customer satisfaction．
   Some even argue that online shopping indirectly contributes to global warming．Yes，your car can stay parked but how are online goods delivered？Often by some large vans pouring out carbon monoxide and adding to our already desperate traffic problems．You are also by now becoming increasingly irritated （使煩惱） by the fact that the delivery is late and you have wasted the leave from work you have taken to receive it!
   Without question，online shopping is here to stay and it has its benefits．However，perhaps it is not as wonderful as some of its supporters claim it to be．

（1）The author lists several questions in Para．1 to

．
A．support online shopping
B．collect answers from readers
C．show his dislike of going shopping
D．introduce the topic of the passage
（2）By what can online shoppers avoid fraud？

A．Using only trusted websites．
B．Choosing big websites．
C．Collecting shopping evidence．
D．Seeking advice from the police．
（3）The author agrees with the fact that

．
A．customers are never satisfied with products
B．online shopping is a safe way to make purchases
C．online shopping has nothing to do with global warming
D．delivery delay often makes online shoppers unhappy
（4）What is the author's attitude towards online shopping？

A．Very popular．
B．A wise choice．
C．Not trouble free．
D．A waste of time．

3．When I was a child，I hoped to live in the city．I think I would be happy there．
Now I am living in a city，but I miss my home in countryside．There the air is clean or the mountains are green．Unfortunately，on the development of industrialization，the environment has been polluted．Lots of studies have been shown that global warming has already become a very seriously problem．The airs we breathe in is getting dirtier and dirtier．Much rare animals are dying out．We must found ways to protect your environment．If we fail to do so，we'll live to regret it．
