【T1】Over the last few years the Internet has evolved from being a scientific network only, to a platform that is enabling a new generation of businesses.The first wave of electronic bussiness was fundamentally the exchange of information. But, with time, more and more types of businesses have become available electronically.【T2】Nowadays we can buy goods online, book holidays or have texts translated over the Internet in an instant.Home banking, for example, is one application that is already provided by most banks around the world. Looking up your balance, transferring money and other transactions are done every day by millions of people. Public administration has discovered the Internet as means to talk to the general public at election times. And it will not be a long time before we see general elections decided on the Internet. The reason why I have called this book "The E-business Revolution" is that the approach is twofold. Technology has revolutionized the way we can do business. But business itself is only slowly adapting to the new possibilities. The New Economy needs a new paradigm, but the process of conversion will take some time to complete. The necessary technology is ready and waiting.【T3】The e-business in the title is not the same as IBM is seeing, it is much more, as you will discover by reading this book, therefore the "B" in e-business is not written in capital letters as in IBM's case.The Internet is changing the concept of programming applications. We are moving towards pervasive computing and towards electronic services. The Jini technology is one of the first implementations of what one could call "one world, one computer". Jini allows every device to talk to every other device in a common language.【T4】A device in this case can be anything with a silicon chip inside and an Internet connection.Other companies have started to develop similar paradigms, technologies and visions, such as IBM's T-Spaces technology and Hewlett-Packard's E-Services strategy. 【T5】Most probably you already know the example of the empty refrigerator that sends an e-mail to the grocery with a request for fresh milk that will be delivered to the doorstep before breakfast in the morning.Prototypes have already been built. A bar-code reader is able to detect which products are put into the fridge and taken out afterwards. For many people this won't been necessity in the future. The grocery is more than just a piece where people can buy food. It is a social place where people meet, which cannot be simply replaced by two chips. But for those who do not have the time to do shopping or are not able to walk to the grocery, this may become an option.

40. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?

- B.postponed, until the consequences can be evaluated

- D.accelerated, to overcome legislative fear
-
38. Which of the following best describes why the restrictive banking laws of the 1930's are still on the book?
- A.The bank failures of the 1930's were caused by restrictive courts.
- B.Banking has not changed in the past 50 years.
- C.The banking system is too restrictive, but no alternatives have been suggested.
- D.Legislators apparently believe that banking problems similar to those of the Depression still exist today.
-
The Supreme Court's recent decision allowing regional interstate banks has done away with one restriction in America's banking operation, although many others still remain. Although the ruling does not apply to very large money-center banks, it is a move in a liberalizing direction that could at last push Congress into framing a sensible legal and regulatory system that allows banks to plan their future beyond the next court case. The restrictive laws that the courts are interpreting are mainly a legacy of the bank failures of the 1930's. The current high rate of bank failure higher than at any time since the Great Depression has made legislators afraid to remove the restrictions. While their legislative timidity is understandable, it is also mistaken. One reason so many American banks are getting into trouble is precisely that the old restrictions make it hard for them to build a domestic base large and strong enough to support their activities in today's telecommunicating round-the-clock, around-the-world financial markets. In trying to escape from this restrictions, banks are taking enormous, and what should be unnecessary, risks. For example, would a large bank be buying small, failed savings banks at inflated prices if federal law and states regulations permitted that bank to explain instead through the acquisition of financially healthy banks in the region? Of course not. The solution is clear. American banks will be sounder when they are not geographically limited. The house of Representative's banking committee has shown part of the way forward by recommending common-sensical, though limited , legislation for a five-year transition to nationwide banking. This would give regional banks time to group together to form counterweights to the big money-center banks. Without this breathing space the big money-center banks might soon extend across the country to develop. But any such legislation should be regarded as only a way station on the road towards a complete examination of American's suitable banking legislation.
37. The author's attitude towards the current banking laws is best described as one of______.
- A.concerned dissatisfaction
- B.tolerant disapproval
- C.uncaring indifference
- D.great admiration
-
36. In the third paragraph, the phrase "getting there" means______.
- A.arriving at one's destination
- B.getting what one wants most
- C.finding out a suitable relaxation technique
- D.reaching a state of deep relaxation
-
During a state of deep relaxation, several physiological changes take place in the body: the body's oxygen consumption is reduced; the heart beat decreases; muscle tension and sweating ease, and there is decreased sympathetic(交感的)nervous system activity. This restful state not only allows the body to repair and restore itself, but it has a calming effect on the consciousness. How to a-chieve this state of relaxation, however, is a matter of opinion, and in some medical circles, a matter of controversy(争议). A recent report by Dr. David Holmes of the University of Kansas in the journal " American Psychologist" said that simply sitting in an armchair has just as many beneficial characteristics for the body as meditation(冥想)does. Researchers of other relaxation techniques disagree. These experts believe that more structured techniques, such as meditation, lead to a condition of deep relaxation. The debate goes on, but one thing appears to be clear: the relaxation response can be reached by a number of methods, and the methods themselves are not as important as getting there. One day, one method may work best; on another day, an alternative method may be more appropriate. Once you are aware of all the methods, you can find the one that works best on you. Some of the relaxation techniques are meditation, auto-analysis(自我心理分析)and progressive muscle relaxation response than just sitting quietly in a chair, they have the added benefit of structure and discipline , and for these reasons appear to be more effective for most individuals.
34. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true when a person is in a state of deep relaxation?
- A.The body takes in less oxygen.
- B.The heart beats less frequently.
- C.Muscles become tense and the body sweats easily.

-
35. People seem to agree that______.
- A.sitting in an armchair benefits a person as meditation does
- B.structured relaxation techniques are more beneficial for a person
- C.to achieve a state of deep relaxation is possible through various means
- D.what people are all struggling for is a state of deep relaxation
-
32. From the last sentence of the first paragraph we learn that______.
- A.in the future all the Americans will use credit cards
- B.credit cards are mainly used in the United States today
- C.nowadays many Americans do not pay in cash
- D.it is now more convenient to use credit cards than before
-
One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card. They give their owners automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and even abroad, and they make many banking services available as well. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations , whether or not the local branch bank is open. For many of us the "cashless society" is not on the horizon—it's already here. While computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving. Decisions to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customers for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer-analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future, and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself. Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and electric utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.
