Watch out, Yahoo．There’s search engine out there with super speed and accuracy．It’s really cool．

Google is the Web’s largest search engine．In just two years it has gained a reputation for surprising speed and accuracy, delivering exactly what you’re looking for in a second．The site now does this 40 million times a day – a number achieved without spending a penny on a TV or newspaper ad．

Google doesn’t need them．In the past six months alone, the site has won a Webby （the online version of the Oscar） for technical excellence, set a new record for search engines by indexing a billion Web pages．

Yahoo still has 10 times the audience, but Google consistently ranks first in customer satisfaction: 97% of users find what they’re looking for most or all the time．“You see people smile when they use it, like they’ve found something no one else knows about,” says Danny Sullivan, editor of an online newsletter．

No one is smiling more than Larry Page, 27, and Sergey Brin, 26, who seem certain to become billionaires when the company goes public, probable sometime next year．They make a great comedy duo．When they first met as Ph．    D．students, the pair say, they found each other horrible – “I still find him horrible,” adds Brin – but were driven together by a computer – science project aimed at coming up with better ways of searching the Web．

The idea behind Google is that traditional search engines are stupid．They think relevance is based on repetition; if you type in a request for Tiger Woods, say, you’ll get websites listed according to how many times those words appear．Not only is this no guarantee of quality, but it’s also open to abuse．If you own a Tiger fan site and want to lead more people to it, simply type his name thousands of times in the site’s source code．

The first paragraph serves to           ．

             A．compare two websites     B．bring out the topic

             C．put blame on Yahoo     D．give the background of the topic

What does the underlined word “then” in the third paragraph refer to?

             A．40 million times．      B．Achievements．

             C．TV and newspaper ads． D．Web pages．

Which of the following wins greater customer satisfaction?

            A．Yahoo．  B．Google．  C．Page．     D．Brin．

It can be inferred that Page and Brin         ．

             A．work for Google            B．are Tiger fans

             C．hated each other             D．work for Yahoo

Know before you do.   52   a few hours before your trip learning about the history and culture of your destination. This will help you understand what you’re seeing.

Move around like a local. Use the subways and buses of the city you’re   53  . You’ll not only save money, but you’ll also learn how people really live.

Check the bulletin boards (布告牌). Sometimes you can find advertisements for free concerts and   54   fun activities on bulletin boards around universities.
