I was selling tickets and asking for $1.00 donations for our youth programs to help the children without parents in Minsk." Donate a dollar for youth programs and receive a ticket for a $1.50 hot dog!" Some donated a dollar and received a ticket; others donated more. Some simply donated without taking tickets, sometimes even $5.00 or $10.00. I was touched. So I continued my work with more energy. Then, a group of Spanish farm workers entered the hall. I knew they were poor and might not even understand what I was doing. So I decided just to let them walk by me and didn’t say anything.
However, after they disappeared into the store, I thought again. I had seen these men working hard on the farm in the sun on a very hot summer day. I knew they needed
every dollar. But I realized that they should be shown the same respect (尊敬) shown to every local citizen (市民). They also deserved (应得) the chance to donate to such a program, even if they had little! But what could I do? My Spanish was very poor, but I had to do it. I knew two little words. When they came out of the store, I walked towards them with those two little words: "Por favor"(Please). Nothing more.

Wangjingdu Bookstore was founded 13 years ago. The owner Ms. Shi said, "Bookselling is a low-profit (低利润的) business. More and more people buy books from online bookstores because they are offering bigger discounts (折扣)."Wangjingdu Bookstore started to lose money two or three years ago when online bookstores grew rapidly. To open up the market and develop readers’buying habits, online bookstores use low prices as an important sales method.
"We offer a 10% discount to customers and 15% to club members. At these discount levels, our book sales are still going down," Ms. Shi said. She believes low costs and no rent are big reasons why online bookstores are growing so quickly.
A survey shows that online bookstores have already taken more than 10% of all book sales in China. In large cities, online shopping has become the main book-buying method. With online bookstores gradually growing in the book market, the difficulties for real bookstores are becoming increasingly clear. Recently, Jifengshuyuan has had to face the possibility of closure (倒闭) because of the bad effects of online competition and high rent. "We all have the same problem as Jifengshuyuan’s. Real bookstores are going to disappear sooner or later,"said Ms. Shi sadly.
But at this crucial time, Eslite Bookstore in Taiwan is doing very well. Few Eslite bookstores sell only books. Instead, most of the store space is given to tapes and CDs, clothes, and other high-profit items. This is how Eslite pays for the rent.
68. Wangjingdu Bookstore started to lose money because ______.
A. bookselling is a low-profit business B. it had to pay more for the costs and rent
C. online bookstores were developing fast
D. it gave a much lower discount to customers than before
69. The author uses the example of Eslite Bookstore in the last paragraph in order to
_______.
A. show that bookselling isn’t a good business
B. give a quite different example of a real bookstore
C. tell the readers that real bookstores will never disappear
D. advise real bookstore owners to give up their businesses
70. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Jifengshuyuan is not doing business now.
B. Online bookstores can offer discounts of lower than 15%.
C. People in both large and small cities prefer buying books online.
D. Real bookstore owners are not smart enough to run their businesses.
71. This passage is mainly about _______.
A. the success of Eslite Bookstore B. the advantages of online bookstores
C. the present difficulties faced by real bookstores
D. the problems faced by Wangjingdu Bookstore

Women have been making scientific discoveries since ancient times. Twelve women have won the Nobel Prize for Science, one of the highest honors in the world. Some women scientists never married, some worked with their husbands, and others raised large families. It has been difficult for women to be successful scientists.
In the early 1800s in England, Mary Anning became one of the first women recognized for her discoveries about the ancient history of the Earth. Mary and her father collected fossils (化石) in their village on the south coast of Great Britain. Fossils are parts of plants or animals that have been saved in rocks for millions of years.
When she was only twelve years old, Mary became the first person to find the almost complete skeletons (骨架) of several animals that no longer existed on Earth. She didn’t become famous for her discoveries at that time because she often sold her fossils to get money to support her family.
In 1891, a young Polish woman named Marie Sklodowska traveled to Paris to study physics. She did so because she could not get a college education in Poland. She began working in the laboratory of a man named Pierre Curie. Marie and Pierre Curie got married and made many discoveries together. They received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903 along with another scientist. Marie Curie became the first person to be awarded a second Nobel Prize in 1911, this time for chemistry. Marie Curie was one of the few women at the time who became famous as a scientist.
72. The author believes that women scientists ________.
A. have more opportunities to become successful
B. can not get the highest honors in the world
C. go through difficulties to be successful
D. had better pay more attention to their families
73. Mary Anning was one of the first women to _______.
A. win the Nobel Prize for Science after getting married
B. make achievements in the study of ancient Earth
C. research animals and their bones with her father
D. study the mystery of all kinds of plants
74. Mary Anning failed to be famous for her discoveries of fossils when she was 12 because
_________.
A. nobody recognized them B. they weren’t worth studying
C. she didn’t want to be known to anyone D. she sold them for money
75. What can we learn about Marie Sklodowska?
