41、A.timeB.randomC.sightD.risk 解析：文章第一句说明电子商务彻底改变了市场的经营方式，是“利”。第二句开头就是 However，见到这个词我们可能想到下文将谈到“弊”，而且空白处后面是“购买假冒或劣质商品”。at the time of的含义是“在时候”，at random 是“随意”或“随机”，不接 of，而 at the sight of表示“看到”，只有 at risk of.比较合适，其意义是“有的风险”。A.take advantage of B.cast doubt onC.give rise toD.go ahead with解析：文章第三句空白处之后的文
42、字说明有些公司为顾客提供的商品不是顾客所要的，这表明商家利用了顾客不在公司所在地的这个有利条件行骗。take advantage of：利用；cast doubt on：使人们对表示怀疑；give rise to：引发，导致；go ahead with：继续。A.deceptionsB.bargains C.opportunitiesD.advertisements解析：该空白处前面已谈到有些商家不守信用并诱惑消费者购买某些商品，凭经验我们应预料到这些商品不可能是物美价廉的，而很可能是伪劣商品。商家推荐某商品时，不可能告诉消费者这是 deceptions(欺骗)。此外，商品不是 adverti
43、sements(广告)，只剩下 bargains和 opportunities。bargain 作为名词时其含义是“便宜货”，因此比 opportunities更合适。A.managedB.created C.preventedD.led解析：空白处前面是 dangers(危险或风险)，后面是“网购缺少透明度”，我们应思考哪个动词能连接obscurity和 dangers。obscurity 只能引发风险，不可能是 prevent，而不可能是“管理”或“控制”风险，create 的含义之一是“使形成”，如 the difficulty created by poverty。A.prospect
44、B.aspectC.respectD.perspective 解析：aspect 和 respect的意义为“方面”时与介词 in连用，而 perspective主要与 from连用表示“角度”。A.as toB.prior toC.up to D.next to解析：在本句中，空白处前面的动词 measure的含义是“达到某一数量或程度”，而空白处后面文字的意义是“以前在网站中宣称的”。as to：关于；prior to：在之前；up to：多达，直到，达到，接近，取决于，是的责任；next to：接近，紧挨着。products not measuring up to what was pr
45、eviously advertised in the website的意义是“产品质量没达到网站广告先前宣称的标准”。A.confidential B.superficialC.potentialD.initial解析：confidential：秘密的；superficial：表面上的；potential：潜在的，可能的；initial：最初的。黑客获得的通常是私人信息，选择 confidential合适。A.raisingB.disqualifyingC.exaggeratingD.minimizing 解析：raise prices：提价；disqualify：淘汰，使不合格；exagge
46、rate：夸张，夸大；minimize：使最小化，把降低到最低程度。空白处前面讲“还有些公司或网站以诚待人，但由于竞争激烈，只好以某种方式保持微利”，而 minimize prices的含义是“尽量降低价格”。A.howB.becauseC.why D.where解析：空白处前面已谈到互联网上销售充满竞争，而后面提醒人们由于利润率低，电子商务公司有破产的风险。前后两句是“因果”关系，因此选择 why。A.sellingB.to sell C.sellD.sold解析：在肯定句中，need 往往是实意动词，接 to do sth.，而在否定句中可充当情态动词。Blue collar and go
