23、ages. Choose the best answer for each statement or question from the four choices marked A, B, C and D, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet.Questions 24-28 are based on the following passage.Passage OneThere is something apt about a social networking website winning a popularity co
24、ntest. According to industry data, Facebook overtook Google among US internet users last week, with more visits to its pages than to the search engine. It is a moment to consider the rapid growth of a site whose 400m-plus users outnumber the population of any single country except India and China.Th
25、e industry data come with a few caveats. The figures exclude visits to other Google services, such as YouTube and Google Mail. They omit searches carried out in a box on a browser toolbar. Also, the number of visits is just one measure of internet take-up: counting unique users visitors rather than
26、visits gives a different profile. Still, it highlights the momentum behind Facebook as it displaces G from the weekly lead it has commanded on this measure since September 2007.Advertisers find Facebook appealing too. It enables them to reach a mass audience, as television does, but with the extra b
27、enefit of much greater targeting. Consumer brands could easily extend their presence beyond the fan pages that already exist. Moreover, a social site provides consumers who visit for much longer than they would use a search engine. So increased advertising, and perhaps ways to allow users to shop th

There is a risk for advertisers and for the site if Facebook moves to become commercial in a way that users resent. In amongst personal information, advertisements are more likel
29、y to strike a jarring note.The high-growth phase means that Facebook can take its time developing ways to increase revenues. The key must be to find ways that bring practical benefits to those who visit the site. There is an intrinsic stickiness about a site where users have assembled their own mate
30、rial, but if people stop updating their pages and social networking takes a new form, then winning users back is a hard task.What the data do not show is that search engines have had their day. Googles core search advertising business rebounded in the final quarter of 2009, and the group is preparin
31、g for renewed growth. Moreover, there is a straightforward reminder of how fragile the fortunes of social networking sites can be: the site that Google overtook in 2007 to become most popular in the US was MySpace which is now seeking a new role as social users have moved elsewhere. 24. What is the
32、reason for MySpaces withdrawn from the role as social networking site?A. It is overtook by other social networking site like Facebook.B. It has lost its social users.C. It has introduced in too many advertisements.D. It has become a profit-making site. 25. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Facebook users outnumber that of Google.B. Yourtube is one of Google services.C. Before this week, Google had lead all other webs
