George Gershwin，born in 1898，was one of America's greatest composers. He published his first song when he was eighteen years old. During the next twenty years he wrote more than five hundred songs.
Many of Gershwin's songs were first written for musical plays performed in theatres in New York City. These plays were a popular form of entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s.Many of his songs have remained popular as ever. Over the years they have been sung and played in every possible way—from jazz to country.
In the 1920s there was a debate in the United States about jazz music. Could jazz，some people asked，be considered serious music? In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music. Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it. And in that short time，he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue. Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert. The audience were thrilled when they heard his music. It made him world-famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.
In 1928，Gershwin went to Paris. He applied to study composition (作曲)with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger，but she rejected him. She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz-influenced style. While there，Gershwin wrote An American in Paris. When it was first performed，critics (評論家)were divided over the music. Some called it happy and full of life，to others it was silly and boring. But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States. It still remains one of his most famous works.
George Gershwin died in 1937，just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer. He was only thirty-nine years old. Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages.People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.

(2024·安徽六校第一次聯考)It is amazing to note that the Internet is still such a new device, and yet it is one of the fastest and most powerful media tools. But think about it for a moment. On the Internet, a big online company can be run by two guys out of their garage. So it is only reasonable that people shopping on the Net would be a little _leery of the security levels.
Internet giants such as Microsoft knew consumer confidence was the key to getting virtual(虛擬) shopping off the ground, and they work hard to make people feel safe to shop online.
Credit card companies, too, quickly saw the potential for Internet shopping, and have installed things like online shopping insurance for people. If you ever have a problem with your online credit purchases, many credit card companies will happily refund(返還) your money and then set their claws on the company that wronged you. Now that's buying power!
There are other bonuses for online shoppers, of course. No line-ups, for one. No annoying mall shopping carts with broken wheels and kids crying because their parents won't get them what they want.
When shopping online, consumers can sit down, have a coffee, and wear their slippers, not have to worry about their hair or parking and just click through sale after sale. Comparison shopping couldn't be any easier. And thanks to courier companies(速遞公司)getting in on the act, you never need wait longer than a day or two to get those all impor-tant purchases delivered right to your door.
No wonder so many companies are shaking their heads at traditional advertising and instead looking to the “virtual” world to attract online shoppers.
[語篇解讀] 本文主要敘述了人們進行網上購物的安全可靠性，講述了網上購物的一些優勢，鼓勵人們放心進行網購。
5．The underlined word “leery” means ________.
A．satisfied B．distrustful
C．hopeful
D．sad
【解析】 詞義猜測題。根據第一段敘述“一個大的網絡公司可能只有一兩個人經營”以及第二段敘述如何保證網購的安全性，可知此處應該是對網購安全性提出質疑，因此是表示“不信任”；故選B項。
【答案】 B
6．________leads to consumers' trust in online shopping.
A．Shopping law
B．Shopping convenience
C．Internet access
D．Shopping security
【解析】 推理判斷題。根據第二段和第三段可知一些公司為網購的安全性提供保障，因此人們可以放心進行網購，故選D項。
