    Dear Diary,

    Here I am in the middle of a city, 350 miles far away from our farmhouse. Do you want to know why we move last week? Dad lost his job and as Mom explained, “He was lucky to find other one.” His new job meant I had to say goodbye to my classmate, my school, or just everything else I love in the world. To make matters bad, now I have to share a room with my younger sister, Maggie. Tomorrow is first day of school. I am awfully tiring, but I know I will never fall sleep.

    Good night and remember, you, dear diary, is my only souvenir from my past life and my only friend.

    Yours,

    Rosemary

    Online shopping has become more and more popular these years. Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping, according to a study published last week in the US.

    For years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women, but during the 2013 holiday season 58 percent of those shopping online were women.

    “It shows how mainstream the Internet is becoming,” said Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project group, which carried out the study. Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men. This is because women traditionally make decisions about spending.

    Users were more likely to shop online to save time. Internet users between the ages 18 and 29 were responsible for some of the surprising increase in the online gift-buying population this time around.

    However, three-quarters of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2013. They worried about credit card security(安全), or just compared online prices with off-line prices, then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals.

    “But even if shoppers don’t buy online, websites are becoming promotion(促销) tools for stores, ” said Dan Hess, vice president of Com Score Network Inc. Hess said that actually most stores’ websites can make customers fully believe the security of their credit card numbers. And most are able to ensure that gifts arrive on time.

    “It’s all about making the shopping experience more efficient, more reliable and more comfortable.” Hess said.

    1.Which of the following statements is true?

    A. There were fewer women online shoppers than men in 2013.

    B. More women shopped online than men in 2013.

    C. Most of the Internet users between the ages of 18 and 29 are women.

    D. People in the US were more likely to buy gifts online.

    2.What does the underlined part “dashed off” probably mean ?

    A. 关闭 B. 推迟 C. 匆忙 D. 起飞

    3.According to Dan Hess, shopping online ______.

    A. is unsafe B. is convenient

    C. is a waste of money D. is cheaper
