         For several years, Americans have enjoyed teleshopping - watching TV and buying things by phone.
    Now teleshopping is starting in Europe. In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs
    and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys and many other things.
         Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden, for example. The biggest Swedish company sells
    different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made$100 million. In France
    there are two teleshopping channels, and the French spend about$20 million a year to buy things through
    those channels.
           In Germany, until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day. Then
    the government allowed more telepshopping. Other channels can open for telebusiness, including the largest
    American teleshopping company and a 24-hour teleshopping company. German businesses are hoping this
    new teleshopping will help them sell more things.
          Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes.
    With all the problems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason. But at the same time, other
    Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They call teleshopping "junk on the air". Many Europeans
    usually worry about the quality of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them, and they
    believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.
         The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to be different from
    the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They
    will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.
    1. Teleshopping is _____ in Europe.  
    [     ]
    A. not popular
    B. growing 
    C. not possible
    D. cheap
    2. People like teleshopping because it is _____.
    [     ]
    A. American
    B. cheaper
    C. easier
    D. more popular
    3. Some Europeans don't like teleshopping because they _____.
    [     ]
    A. don't like to buy things  
    B. don't watch TV
    C. believe the things sold on TV are expensive
    D. think the things sold on TV are bad quality
    4. In Germany, teleshopping may _____.
    [     ]
    A. help businessmen get more money
    B. keep the shops open longer
    C. have fewer buyers
    D. bring better TV programs
    5. The best title of this passage is _____.
    [     ]
    A. American Teleshopping
    B. Teleshopping Companies
    C. Teleshopping in Europe
    D. Teleshopping - Junk on the Air

         Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family,
    health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is
    a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back.
          But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glasses. If you drop one of these,
    they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your
    life. How?
         Don't look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and
    each of us is special.
         Don't let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
         Don't give up when you still have something to give. 3. Nothing is really over until the moment you
    stop trying.
         Don't be afraid to fight difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
         Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible. 4.  The quickest way to receive love is to give
    it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地)
    ; the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
    Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you have been, but also where you are going.
          Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless (失重的). It's a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry
    easily.
         Don't use time or words carelessly. You can't get them back.
         Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
         Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift: that's why we call it "the present".
