The most common forms of live stream marketing

Online Marketplaces

Online marketplaces like Taobao and Jingdong allow users to buy and sell products without ever

leaving their homes. But the addition of live video streaming is proving vital to keep buyers interested.

Why? By adding live streaming to the platform, these marketplaces can deliver the closest possible

experience to “being there” for online buyers. Real-time interactivity offers the urgency of a real

marketplace, urging immediate action and improving community participation.

Live Auctions（拍卖）

Live streaming opens up the auction items to those unable to physically attend, reaches participants

with varying interests and ensures that each item sells at its proper valuation. Online auctions are big

business, and real-time video delivery is critical. Whether auctioning off pets or fine art，any delay in a

live stream could prevent bids（出价）from being recorded properly. Several milliseconds can translate to

billions of dollars.

Influencer Streaming

Today’s celebrities aren’t necessarily on the big screen. An increasing number of stars rise to fame

via social media each day. With a large number of faithful fans, influencers can use their personal brand

and the power of live streaming to promote their favorite products in an interactive way. Influencer

streaming originated on social media, but has now become commonplace across e-business sites as well.

Live Events

Newsworthy events, such as product launches and limited edition drops, increase the popularity of

live stream marketing. Today, shoppable mobile streaming allows fans to purchase items in real time from

the catwalks（T型走秀台）of Louis Vuitton and Victoria’s Secret.

1. How does live video streaming affect online marketplaces?

A. It makes goods more popular. B. It keeps shop owners interested.

C. It offers a real experience of offline shopping. D. It makes online shopping more like offline shopping.

2. What can we know about online auctions?

A. They bring convenience for people physically attending.

B. They make it necessary to have high speed Internet access.

C. They make sure that every item can finally be sold online.

D. They provide opportunities of making great fortune overnight.

3. Which works as the easiest way for Internet celebrities getting into e-business?

A. Online Marketplaces. B. Live Auctions.

C. Influencer Streaming. D. Live Events.

Earth's longest artificial structure is usually said to be the Great Wall of China while the

second-longest is not a wall, but a fence. It stretches for 5,614km across eastern Australia and is intended

to stop the country's wild dogs, the dingoes, from hunting sheep.

Australia's dingo fence does not stand alone. Millions of kilometres of fences wrap the world. Some

are intended to limit the movement of animals, some the movement of people, and some merely to mark

the boundary.

Until recently, data on the effects of fences on wildlife have been inadequate. That has changed with

the publication of a report by professor Alex McInturff. One discovery he has made is that more than half

of published fence research focuses on just five countries-America, Australia, Botswana, China and South

Africa. A second is that only a third of these studies examined the impact of fences on anything other than

the target species involved, meaning the animals purposely intended to be kept in or out.

Non-target species, however, are often those that have their fortunes most greatly reshaped by the

appearance of poles and wire. Australian fences intended to keep out dingoes are also barriers to

long-necked turtles, which travel great distances over land when moving between nesting sites. In

Botswana fences built to spare cattle from wildlife-borne disease result in serious interference with

wildebeest (角马）migrations.

Not every creature fares（进展） badly. Hawks (鹰）in Montana gladly sit on newly built livestock

fences to hunt small animals, while fence-based spiders in South Africa outperform their tree-based

cousins when it comes to catching insects.

Often, though, the winners are creatures that cause trouble for existing ecosystems. Keeping dingoes

out of large parts of Australia has allowed aggressive red foxes to multiply. Native rodents (啮齿类动物）

have suffered as a result. Some have been brought to the edge of extinction.

4. Which is a purpose of building fences?

A. To expand the boundary of a country. B. To protect livestock like sheep and cattle.

C. To stop wild animals from being hunted. D. To help people move around freely.

5. What can we learn about the studies on fences?

A. Data on the impact of fences have been proved.

B. Previous researches were complete and systematic.

C. About two-thirds of the studies focus on the target animals.

D. Not all studies examined the effect of fences on wildlife.

6.Which animals unexpectedly benefit from fences?

A. Cattle in Botswana. B. Wildebeest in Botswana.

C. Red foxes in Australia. D. Native rodents in Australia.

7.Where can the text be found?

A.In a wildlife-protection brochure B.In a blog on wildlife

C.In a wildlife magazine D.In a wildlife forum

In 2016 in an Illinois town called Cahokia, a woman was sent to prison just because she failed to tend

her lawn (草坪). In 2019, a Florida man was fined $30,000 by the city of Dunedin for allowing his grass

to grow more than 10 inches in height. These examples, while extreme, are not rare occurrence in

America.

A study estimated that turf grasses (lawns, parks, athletic fields, etc) cover over 40 million acres in

the continental U.S., an area larger than any crop area. And Americans spend as much as $60 billion a

year maintaining these grasses. These impressive data are the result of Americans’ setting much store on

these pieces of greenery for several centuries.

Centuries ago, only those with considerable wealth could own the resources needed to maintain these

displays. In the modern world, lawns have gradually changed from the estates of the wealthy to the front

yards of common people. Across America, millions of families now proudly present their grass to their

neighbors and drivers by carefully weeding, watering, fertilizing and mowing these small-scale

representations of the grounds.

With this context in mind, it’s easy to see well-tended lawns in America. People tend to use lawns to

create an impression of order or to indicate a sense of personal success. The relative health and

attractiveness of the grass in their yard becomes a barometer (晴雨表) for their life as a whole.

However, with so many acres covered by the grass, the influence associated with lawn maintenance

is more than just psychological. To begin with, a lawn requires massive quantities of resources to sustain.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that lawns account for about half of homeowner’s water use,

much of which is wasted. Additionally, Americans are reported to use 80 million pounds of chemicals on

their lawns each year. The process of tending the lawn also contributes to air pollution.

These surprising data mean we need to question whether lawns provide us with enough benefit to

justify their widespread existence.

8. Why are the two lawn-related cases mentioned in the first paragraph?

A. To explain the effectiveness of American laws

B. To show the significance of lawns in American society.

C. To stress Americans’ awareness of environmental protection.

D. To reveal the cost of maintaining lawns in Americans’ daily life.

9. What does the underlined part in the second paragraph mean?

A. Making full use of. B. Facing the consequence of.

C. Attaching great importance to. D. Shouldering the responsibility for.

10. Why do Americans have a preference for well-tended lawns?

A. Because of the psychological function of lawns.

B. Because of the popularity of lawns in Americans’ life

C. Because of the purpose of placing barometers in lawns.

D. Because of the method of planting healthy and attractive lawns.

11. What can we know about the lawns in the U.S. according to the passage?

A. They will be expanded to cover more lands.

B. They are of significant environmental concerns.

C. They will motivate people to be health-conscious.

D. They can promote the development of the chemical industry.

A study led by Plana-Ripoll, a doctor at Aarhus University in Denmark, tries to deal with a

fundamental question that has bothered researchers for more than a century—what exactly causes mental

illness?

In the hope of finding the answer, scientists have piled up a large amount of data over the past decade,

through studies of genes and brain activity. They have found that many of the same genes underlie(构成...

的基础） seemingly distinct disorders and that changes in the brain’s decision-making systems could be

involved in many conditions.

The researchers are also rethinking theories of how our brains go wrong. The idea that mental illness

can be classified into distinct, separate categories like “anxiety” has been disproved (驳倒）to a large

extent. Instead, recently they’ve found that disorders shade into each other, and there are no hard dividing

lines.

The researchers are trying to understand the biology that underlies mental illness. They have a few

theories. Perhaps there are several dimensions of mental illness, so depending on how a person scores on

each dimension, they might be more likely to have some disorders than others. An alternative idea is that

there is a single factor that makes people easier to suffer from mental illness in general. What disorder

they develop is then determined by other factors. Both ideas are being taken seriously though the former

one is more widely accepted by the researchers.

The details are still unclear, but most researchers agree that one thing is specific: The old system of

categorizing mental disorders into neat boxes does not work. They are also hopeful that, in the long run,

replacing this framework with one that is grounded in biology will lead to new drugs and treatments. The

researchers aim to reveal, for instance, the key genes, brain regions and neurological processes involved in

psychopathology(精神病理学), and target them with treatments. Although it might take a while to get
