They fill out a wish list from the 50,000 titles on the companys Web site and receive the first few DVDs in t

14、he mail; when they mail each one back, the next one on the list is sent. The Netflix model has been exhaustively analyzed for its disruptive, new-economy（31）implications. What will it mean for video stores like Blockbuster, which has, in fact, started a similar service? What will it mean for movie s

15、tudios and theaters? What does it show about long tail businesses - ones that combine many niche markets, like those for Dutch movies or classic musicals, into a (32)single large audience? But one other major implication has (33)barely been mentioned: what this and similar Internet-based businesses

16、mean for that stalwart of the old economy, the United States Postal Service.Every day, some two million Netflix envelopes come and go as first-class mail. They are joined by millions of other shipments from （34）online pharmacies, eBay vendors, A and other businesses that did not exist before the Int

17、ernet.The（35）demise of snail mail in the age of instant electronic communication has been predicted at least as often as the coming of the paperless office. But the consumption of paper keeps （36）rising. It has roughly doubled since 1980. On average, an American household receives twice as many piec

18、es of mail a day as it did in the 1970s.The harmful side of the Internets impact is obvious but statistically less important than many would guess. People (37) naturally write fewer letters when they can send e-mail messages. To (38) leaf through a box of old paper correspondence is to know what has

19、 been _(39) lost in this shift: the pretty stamps, the varying look and feel of handwritten and typed correspondence, the tangible (40) object that was once in the senders hands. V. Reading comprehensionSection APassage one（1）When I was a young girl living in Ireland, I was always pleased when it ra

20、ined, because that meant I could go treasure hunting. Whats the connection between a wet day and a search for buried treasure? Well, its quite simple. Ireland, as some of you may already know, is the home of Leprechauns little men who possess magic powers and, perhaps more interestingly, pots of gol

21、d. （2）Now, although Leprechauns are interesting characters, I have to admit that I was more intrigued by the stories of their treasure hoard. This, as all of Ireland knows, they hide at the end of the rainbow. Leprechauns can be fearsome folk but if you can discover the end of the rainbow, they have

22、 to unwillingly surrender their gold to you. So whenever it rained, I would look up in the sky and follow the curve of the rainbow to see where it ended. I never did unearth any treasure, but I did spend many happy, showery days dreaming of what I could do with the fortune if I found it.（3）As I got

23、older, and started working, rainy days came to be just another nuisance and my childhood dreams of finding treasure faded. But for some people the dream of striking it lucky never fades, and for a fortunate few, the dream even comes true! Such is the case of Mel Fisher. His dream of finding treasure

24、 also began in childhood, while reading the great literature classics “Treasure Island” and “Moby Dick”. However, unlike myself, he chased his dream and in the end managed to become one of the most famous professional treasure hunters of all time, and for good reason. In 1985, he fished up the price

25、less cargo of the sunken Spanish ship Atocha, which netted him an incredible $400 million dollars!（4）After the ship sank in 1622 off the coast of Florida, its murky waters became a treasure trove of precious stones, gold bars and silver coins known as “pieces of eight”. The aptly-named Fisher, who r

26、an a commercial salvaging operation, had been trying to locate the underwater treasure for over 16 years when he finally hit the jackpot! His dreams had come true but finding and keeping the treasure wasnt all plain sailing. After battling with hostile conditions at sea, Fisher then had to battle in

27、 the courts. In fact, the State of Florida took Fisher to court over ownership of the find and the Federal government soon followed suit. After more than 200 hearings, Fisher agreed to donate 20% of his yearly findings for public display, and so now there is a museum in Florida which displays hundre

28、ds of the objects which were salvaged from the Atocha.（5）This true story seems like a modern-day fairytale: a man pursues his dream through adversity and in the end, he triumphs over the difficulties - they all live happily ever after, right? Well, not exactly. Archaeologists object to the fact that

29、 with commercial salvaging operations like Fishers, the objects are sold and dispersed and UNESCO are worried about protecting our underwater heritage from what it describes as “pillaging”.（6）The counter-argument is that in professional, well-run operations such as Fishers, each piece is accurately

30、and minutely recorded and that it is this information which is more important than the actual object, and that such operations help increase our wealth of archaeological knowledge. Indeed, as in Fishers case, they make history more accessible to people through museum donations and information on web

31、 sites.（7）The distinction of whether these treasure hunters are salvaging or pillaging our underwater heritage may not be clear, but what is clear is that treasure hunting is not just innocent childs play anymore but profitable big business. I have learnt that the end of the rainbow is beyond my rea

32、ch, but in consolation, with just a click of the mouse, I too can have a share in the riches that the Atocha has revealed. As Friedrich Nietzsche so wisely said: “Our treasure lies in the beehive of our knowledge.”41. In Para.4, the phrase “hit the jackpot” means _according to the text.A. discovered the jackpot.B. found the treasureC. broke one of
