第36~50题为阅读理解题。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

第36~40题阅读篇章及题目如下：

While browsing for digital presents is something we “often don’t consider” because of “the tradition of having something physically wrapped up,” professor in consumer behaviour form Queensland University of Technology, Gary Mortimer, says the pool of virtual gifting options has dramatically deepened.

“Being able to sit quietly one evening and go through a whole range of virtual gifts and experiences for loved ones certainly mitigates the stress of having to battle busy shopping centres,” he says.

There’s an app store pre-installed on most smartphones, and while most people use the store to download purchases on their own devices, you can also buy an app as a gift for someone else through them. Here’s how.

On an Apple iOS device, start by browsing the store for the app you’d like to gift. Once you’ve found what you want, tap the app to arrive at its detail page. Tap the action button, and scroll through the pop-up menu until you see the “Gift App” option, then select it. From there, follow the directions to send the app as a gift, which will involve entering the contact details and a message for your recipient, setting a delivery date, and choosing a visual theme for your gift presentation.

If you’re an Android user, Google Play doesn’t offer the same gifting service. But don’t worry, there is a workaround. Google Play allows you gift credit for an app, rather than gifting an individual app alone.

36. What is Gary Mortimer’s opinion on virtual gift?

A. It’s uncommon for people to select a digital gift for friends.

B. Most people do not prefer gifts that can be wrapped up physically.

C. People have increasingly more choices for virtual gifts.

D. A deep pool of virtual gifts makes it hard to select.

37. The underlined word “mitigate” (paragraph 2) means __________.

A. make sth. less serious

B. make sth. more serious

C. make sth. similar

D. make sth. different

38. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?

A. How to use an APPLE phone.

B. How to use the iOS system.

C. How to download purchases.

D. How to purchase an app as a present.

39. The “Gift App” includes the following directions EXCEPT__________.

A. filling in the contact information

B. sending an e-mail to your recipient

C. selecting the date when to deliver the gift

D. deciding which visual theme you want to present to your recipient

40. What does the author probably mean by saying “there is a workaround”?

A. There is a lot of work to do for an Android user to use Google Play.

B. An Android user can still get a gifting service from Google Play by sending a gift app.

C. An Android user can send virtual gift through Google Play by sending credit for an app.

D. An Android user should work around to get a gift app.
