Computer for Sale
As I am about to graduate and leave the campus, I am going to sell my personal laptop at a low price.
It is a Lenovo ThinkPad that I bought in June, 2023. It is not big, but very functional. It has a four-core CPU, an independent display card of 2G, a hard disk of 500G and a screen of 15.6 inches.
For the last two years, the laptop has served as my faithful aid and helped me finish most of my assignments and my thesis. There has appeared no fault in the process. I owe so much to it. But as my workplace has already offered me a more advanced working laptop, I find there is no necessity for me to have two. And I know that there must be some of my schoolmates who are more in need of the ThinkPad. Therefore, I determined to sell it.
I bought the laptop as the price of 3500 yuan. Now I will sell it at 1500 yuan or less. Anyone interested can contact me via email, and my mailbox is ***@sina .

啤酒配方伴随时间而变化。例如给许多现代啤酒带来苦味和柑橘味旳啤酒花，是相对较晚被添加到啤酒中旳成分，在九世纪与酿酒有关旳史料中初次被提及。目前，研究人员在5023年前旳酿酒制品残留物中发现了惊人旳成分。在中国中原地区两个考古坑进行挖掘旳期间，科学家们发现了来自 陶罐、漏斗、双耳陶罐和火炉旳陶制碎片(火炉碎片如图)。研究人员今天在《国家科学院院刊》网络版中汇报称，容器旳不一样形状表达它们曾被用来酿造、过滤和储存啤酒，它们也许是古代旳“啤酒制作工具包”，也是最早旳有关中国啤酒酿造旳直接证据。为了检查这一假设，研究小组检测了容器内暗黄干燥旳残留物。其中发现旳淀粉颗粒中约有三分之一或凹或胀，或折叠或扭曲，这些变形会在酿造啤酒所需旳麦芽处理和麦芽浆制作旳过程中发生。科学家们表达，这些谷粒中旳大多数，约80%，来自小米和大麦这样旳谷类作物，同步10%左右来自块茎植物，包括山药和百合，它们给这些啤酒增添了甜味。研究人员表达，大麦是一种意外旳发现：这种农作物在欧亚大陆西部种植，直到大概2023年前才成为中国中部地区旳主食。根据这一时间点，研究人员表达大麦当时也许是作为酿造啤酒旳原料，而不是一种食物被引入中国中原地区旳。

Passage One
Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.
Shoppers in the UK are spending less money on toilet paper to save money, research has shown.
Penny pinching UK consumers choose cheaper products from discounters such as Aldi and Lidi rather than luxury alternatives.
This has wiped 6% off the value of the soft tissue paper market in the UK. It has shrunk from £1.19 billion in 2023 to £1. 12billion in 2023, according to a new report from market research company Mintel. Furthermore, the future of the market looks far from rosy, with sales expected to fall future of the market looks far from rosy, with sales expected to fall further to £1.11billion in 2023.
In the last year alone, despite an increase in the UK population and a subsequent rise in the number of households, sales of toilet paper fell by 2%, with the average household reducing their toilet roll spending from £43 in 2023 to £41 in 2023.
Overall, almost three in five people say they try to limit their usage of paper-including facial tissue and kitchen roll –to save money. "Strength, softness and thickness remain the leading indicators ODM toilet paper quality, with just a small proportion of consumers preferring more luxurious alternatives, such as those with flower patterns or perfume," said Mintel analyst Jack Duckett. "These extra features are deemed unnecessary by the majority of shoppers, which probably reflects how these types of products are typically more expensive than regular toilet paper, even when on special offer."
While consunmers are spending less on toilet paper, they remain fussy-in theory at least-when it comes to paper quality. Top of Britons' toilet paper wish list is softness(57%)followed by strength(45%)and thickness(36%).
One in 10 buyers rank toilet rolls made from recycled paper among their top considerations, highlighting how overall the environment is much less of a consideration for shoppers than product quality. In a challenge for manufactures, 81% of paper product users said they would consider buying recycled toilet tissue if it were comparable in quality to standard paper.
46.【题干】The market sales of toilet paper have decreased because_____.
【选项】
A.Britons have cut their spending on it
B.its prices have gone up over the year
C.its quality has seen marked improvement
D.Britons have developed the habit of saving

【答案】A
47.【题干】What does the author think of the future of the tissue paper market in the UK?
【选项】
