Postmen are all too used to keeping an eye out for the threat of dogs. But in a seaside town in North Wales，they have been forced to take cover from an unexpected threat seagulls. They have complained that the birds have become so terrifying that deliveries to some streets have been suspended. Yesterday residents of Abergele agreed the seagulls were fearless but said they were angry at losing their daily post.
Roberts, who works as a safety adviser，lives where the attacks have taken place. “Last week，we noticed we hadn’t got any mail for what we thought was a week，but it’s hard to tell because you don’t always know if you’re due any mail，”she said. “We put something on　 Facebook asking if anyone else had not had their post. . . One of my Facebook friends said a postman had refused to deliver because of the seagulls. ”
Royal Mail said that deliveries had been interrupted because of the postman experiencing attacks by seagulls as he delivered mail on his round there over the past few weeks, adding that the postman got people’s mail through whenever it was safe.
“We know that these kinds of attacks do happen at this time of year across the country as they are nesting，’’she said. Royal Mail apologized to the customers affected and promised to continue to monitor the situation every day，but in the meantime some are having to travel to neighbouring Rhyl to collect mail from the delivery office there. But he recommends preventing gulls nesting on roofs in advance by putting up nets, and if all else fails, walking with an umbrella up during worst-affected areas.

3.Why did Debbie Roberts put something on Facebook?
A. To know if anyone else had the same experience.
B. To offer advice to deal with the seagulls.
C. To avoid being attacked by seagulls.

Do you like shopping? Or does the thought of wandering around the shops fill you with terror? For some of us, shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our spare time and our money. For me, it’s something I would rather avoid. Thank goodness for the Internet! It’s more convenient to buy CDs, electrical items, even food from the comfort of your sofa. But that’s not the only reason: price is an important factor. We can buy goods and services cheaper online. But sometimes the problem is knowing what to buy. This has led to a type of shopping called “showrooming”.
Showrooming is something I’ve done. I will go to a shop to see, touch and try out products but then go home and buy them online at a knock-down price. I’m not alone in doing this. Research by a company called Foolproof, found 24% of people showroomed while Christmas shopping in 2013.
Amy Cashman, head of Technology at TNS UK, says the reasons for this new shopping habit are that “people are lacking time, lacking money and they want security about the products they are buying”. She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on their smartphones to shop around.
But does this mean technology will kill shops? Certainly shops will change. They will have to offer more competitive prices or encourage people to buy more by giving in-store discounts or free gifts.
We mustn’t forget that buying in a shop means you can get expert advice from the sales assistant and you can get good aftercare. It’s good to speak to a real human rather than look at a faceless computer screen, but at least by showrooming, you get the best of both worlds!
1.The two questions in Paragraph 1 are raised to ________.
A. introduce the topic
B. give two examples
C. compare different opinions
D. get answers from readers
2.According to Amy Cashman, which is not the reason for showrooming?
A. The lack of time.
B. The comfort of the sofa.
C. The shortness of money.
D. The security of the product.
3.The author’s attitude towards showrooming is ________.
A. critical B. neutral C. casual D. supportive

If you’re shopping around for a new laptop to start the year off right, consider one of these following picks for budget-conscious students.
For Chatty Cathys
Sony’s 15.5” VAIO E Series laptop ($399.99) has a second-generation Intel Core i3-2370M processor, 4GB of system memory (RAM) and 500 GB hard drive. Built into the machine is an HD webcam to make it easy to have a video chat with family and friends. And while the camera has a microphone, integrated Bluetooth means you can also wear a headset for even clearer audio. This Windows 7 Home Premium laptop also includes a DVD burner, ACID Music Studio and more.
Math blaster
Students studying math or statistics or business might appreciate a laptop with a dedicated numeric keypad along the right-hand side of the keyboard. That’s what you’ll find in Toshiba’s satin black 15.6-inch Satellite laptop ($399.99). You’ll also find one USB 3.0 and 2 USB 2.0 ports. This entry-level PC has a second-gen Intel Core i3-2370M processor, 4GB of system memory and 500 GB hard drive.
Personalize that PC
If you’ve got a bit more cash to spend, the newest Dell Inspiron 15R ($499.99) delivers a lot of bang for the buck. You get 6GB of system memory, 500GB hard drive. But students might also like the option to change up its look. While the laptop comes standard in silver, you can personalize it with additional lids for $30 a piece (e.g. red, blue or pink). Other highlights include Bluetooth.
Bigger is better
Especially if it’s going to be used primarily as a desktop replacement, a larger screen laptop is the way to go. For $449.99 you can pick up a 17.3-inch HP Pavilion laptop, with a good-looking LED-backlit high-definition widescreen display (1600 x 900 resolution) ideal for movies, games and photos.

A
With my hands and knees on the floor of the airplane, I was searching for an old lady’s missing hearing aid during the flight from Sydney to Los Angeles. It occurred to me that this may not be the most dignified posture for a Buddhist nun(尼姑).
I had seen the old lady from the seat in front of me as she walked up and down the passage with a flashlight. I asked a few times what was wrong, but she didn’t answer at first —– she couldn’t hear me. She was wearing a woolen coat. Judging from her accent, she came from Eastern Europe.
Do you know what hearing aids cost? Thousands, especially for the new tiny hidden-in-the-ear type she described. It takes a long time for an appointment to make a new one, and many doctor visits to get the thing adjusted right. Therefore, my dignity seemed less important than finding that hearing aid. But how does one find a tiny black object in a shadowy jet cabin（机舱）?
The lady wasn’t even sure where or when she had lost it. At one point, a couple of flight attendants did a random search around the lady’s seat; I wasn’t impressed. They left suggesting that she search the seat of her previous flight! My flashlight turned up all kinds of small objects, bits of plastic, broken pieces of headphones.
The old lady said that she gave up. Yet I couldn’t. After we landed, as passengers streamed past us, I insisted that the lady move aside while awaiting her wheelchair. Then I got into a real down and dirty search among the dust under her seat and on the floor.
Look! A little peanut-sized shiny black object caught the light of my flashlight in a floor crack near her seat.
What a rush. “I found it!”
With great astonishment and gratitude, the old lady responded, “I haven’t the words to express my thanks!”
1.Why did the author put her hands and knees on the floor?
A. She is a religious Buddhist nun.
B. She fell down from her seat.
C. She helped the old lady look for her hearing aid.
D. She wanted to stand out among the passengers.
2.What do we know about the old lady?
A. She ignored the author’s question on purpose.
B. She is an American.
C. She lost her hearing aid by accident.
D. It was not difficult for her to get the hearing aid at all.
3.Where was the hearing aid found?
A. On the previous flight.
B. Close to the old lady’ seat.
C. On the wheelchair.
D. In another jet cabin.
4.According to the last two paragraphs, what is the old lady’s attitude towards the author?
A. Respectful.　　　 B. Doubtful.
C. Supportive.　　　 D. Grateful.
5.What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To tell us a story about kind help.
B. To warn us to be more careful.
C. To teach us how to find the lost thing.
D. To present the love from all people on board.
