阅读理解IhavebeenusingtheInternetsinceI

阅读理解 I have been using the Internet since I was five years old, when my dad first sat me down in front of a computer and connected me the World Wide Web.I’ve always felt like a master of the Internet world. AOL Instant Messaging, MSN, Gmail, Facebook, Myspace -- I’ve got it all under control. I thought there was nothing more to it besides checking my e-mail and wasting my time, until I was introduced to electronic commerce(e-commerce): business on the Internet.Some online businesses are run from one-room home offices. Others have hundreds of employees (雇员) across the world. Have you ever heard of Amazon.com, Yahoo.com?My friends often said they got cheap textbooks off Amazon.com, or had a good deal (交易) on Steve Madden shoes that were on sale at SteveMaden.com. Unfortunately for me, I continued my “e-commerceless” Web-surfing, not knowing about all the deals I was missing out on.That is, of course, until my sister finally sold the idea to me.“Why are all these packages arriving in the mail for you, Katy?” I asked her one day. Strange envelopes (信封) had been put on our doorstep for weeks now, each one always addressed to my sister; and we all know little sisters should never be getting more mail than their elders!“Oh, it’s the things I ordered online!” she answered. I watched speechlessly as she opened them. There was no way our parents were letting her spend that much money- online or off!“How much did all of this coat?”“Oh, only about $15 in all!” She said excitedly. “Everything on eBay is on sale! It’s a way better than going to the mall.”I felt as if there had been a store right in my backyard that I had never walked into! That week, I ordered a used Spanish textbook for my summer course online for 10 percent of the publishing price. A few days later, I bought an iPod protector and a book or two via the wonderful eBay.com.1.From the first two paragraph we can conclude that the author A.had no experience using computersB.had no idea of what e-commerce isC.only used the Internet to check e-mailD.thought surfing the Internet was a waste of time2.The writer didn’t find out about e-commerce until A.he stopped web-surfingB.he visited a store in his backyardC.his sister explained the packages she got by mailD.his friends told him about the online deals they made3.We can infer from the last paragraph that the author .A.never enjoyed shopping that muchB.loves the big store in her backyardC.feels she is a true master of the InternetD.has begun to enjoy online shopping4.What’s the purpose of the article?A.To tell the readers how he begins online shopping.B.To do business on the Internet.C.To make an online shopping ad.D.To advise people not to do online shopping

BCDA解析1.推理判断题。文章的前2段内容告诉我们作者很小就有使用计算机上网的经历，但是她却从未尝试过网上购物，对于电子商务并不了解。2.细节理解题。结合文中提到“That is, of course, until my sister finally sold the idea to me.”可知
