PAGE 12 - 课后阅读训练 二 Unit 1　Period 2 Ⅰ. 阅读理解 A Internet shopping is a new way of shopping. People can shop for a variety of products on the Internet. Physical products include items such as books, CDs, clothes and food. These types of products are the most common purchases(购买品)through the Internet. You can also buy information products such as online news or magazine stories, or you can download computer software through the Internet. Services such as booking airline tickets, booking hotels or renting cars are also available on the Internet. You can also go shopping on the Internet for entertainment services and take part in online games or e-mail “chats”. Internet shopping offers a number of benefits for the shoppers. The most important one is convenience. You can shop when you like, as the online shops are open 24 hours a day, and you do not have to queue with other shoppers at the check-out counters. Secondly, it is easy to find what you are looking for on the Internet. Even out-of-print books may be ordered online. Finally, it is often cheaper to buy goods through the Internet, and you can shop exactly what you want. The main disadvantage of Internet shopping is that you cannot actually see the products you are buying or check their quality. Also, many people enjoy shopping in the city and miss the opportunity to talk to friends. Some people are worried about paying for goods using credit cards, so Internet companies are now finding ways to make online payment safe. Internet shopping is sure to become more and more popular in the years ahead. It promises to change the way we buy all kinds of things—from tonight’s dinner to a new car. 【语篇概述】网络购物——这种新的购物方式越来越受欢迎, 文章主要讲述了网络购物的优缺点。 1. Online news and magazine stories are_________.
