        Traditional companies didn't want to lose any business. Quickly, they created their own website and began selling things over the net. These are the so-called "brick and click" companies. Many shops are made of brick, and you click on your mouse to buy things with your computer. That's where the name "brick and click" comes from.

        By the late 1990s, e-businesses like Amazon.com and Buy.com were in trouble. Their profits were not very high, and there was a lot of competition. Many of these businesses lost a lot of money, and in 2000, many e-businesses went out of business.

        Why are "brick and click" companies, like Barnes & Noble, Toys "R" Us, and Walmart so successful? First, many customers know and trust their names. Their websites, like walmart.com, are easy to remember. These companies also have a lot of experience. They know how to run a successful business.

三、任务型阅读
  • 3. 阅读短文及文后A~E选项,选出可以填入各题空白处的最佳选项。

        Artificial intelligence (人工智能) , or AI in short, is the science of giving computers and machines ability to think and work like humans.

        AI is rapidly catching up with the human ability to read faces. As a result, facial recognition (识别) is used a lot in the world. Chinese police use this technology to identify criminals (罪犯).It also checks the ID of ride-hailing (约车) drivers and lets people pay for things with a smile.

        Most drivers may wave or nod at passers—by to let them cross the street, but self—driving cars don't have this ability. Carmakers are testing a light signal system to help them "speak" to humans.For example, if a driverless car is yielding (让路) , it will flash two white lights side to side. A rapidly flashing light tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up.

        Service robots also show you how powerful AI is. Imagine this—you come back from school and your robot housekeeper is waiting for you at the door. After dinner, he teaches you to play the piano, just like a real music teacher. Such thoughts will soon happen in the real world.AI is so powerful that it can help human beings and even replace us in many jobs.

    A. The system can show what self-driving cars will do.

    B. AI scientists and engineers have made a lot of cool technologies.

    C. Once they caught a criminal when he attended a concert.

    D. In the future, more and more service robots will become good home helpers.

    E. AI is also used in self-driving cars, which are believed to be the future of driving.
