Shopping habits in the United Stares have changed greatly in the last quarter of the 20th century. Early in the 1900s most American towns and cities had a Main Street. Main Street was always in the heart of a town. This street was lined on both sides with 11 businesses. Here, shoppers walked into stores to look at all sorts of goods: clothing, furniture, hardware, groceries. In addition, some shops offered service. These shops included drugstores, restaurants, shoe repair stores, and barber or hairdressing shops.12 in the 1950s, a change began to take place. Too many automobiles had crowded into Main Street while too 13 parking places were available to shoppers. 14 the streets were crowded, merchants began to look with interest at the open spaces outside the city limits. Open space was 15 their car driving customers needed. And open space was what they got when the first shopping center was built. Shopping centers, or rather malls, started as a collection of small new stores away from crowded city centers. 16 by hundreds of free parking space, customers were drawn away from 17 areas to outlying malls. And the growing popularity of shopping centers led in turn to the building of bigger and better stocked stores. 18 the late 1970s, many shopping malls had almost developed into small cities themselves. In addition to 19 the convenience of the stop shopping, malls were 20 into landscaped parks, with benches,fountains, and outdoor entertainment.

Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.
The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It would become smaller, safer, and more economical, and would not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future would be far more pollution-free than present types.
Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion. One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system.
When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the ear´ s movements.
The driver will use a phone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the ear all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.

Professor Smith recently persuaded 35 people,23 of them women, to keep a diary of all their absent-minded actions for a fortnight. When he came to analyze their embarrassing lapses in a scientific report, he was surprised to find that nearly all of them fell into a few groupings. Nor did the lapses appear to be entirely random.
One of the women, for instance, on leaving her house for work one morning threw her dog her earrings and tried to fix a dog biscuit on her ear.  "The explanation for this is that the brain is like a computer," explains the professor.  "People program themselves to do certain activities regularly. It was the woman´s custom every morning to throw her dog two biscuits and then put on her earrings. But somehow the action got reversed in the program." About one in twenty of the incidents the volunteers reported were these "program assembly failures."
Altogether the volunteers logged 433 unintentional actions that they found themselves doing--an average of twelve each. There appear to be peak periods in the day when we are at our zaniest (滑稽的). These are two hours some time between eight a.m. and noon, between four and six p.m. with a smaller peak between eight and ten p.m. "Among men the peak seems to be when a changeover in brain  ´program´ occurs, as for instance between going to and from work." Women on average reported slightly more lapses--12.5 compared with 10.9 for men.
{TS} Which of the following about the study is true?

The peak periods of absent-minded actions include the following EXCEPT _________.

According to the passage, which of the following statement is true?

Blended learning (混合式学习) can describe any combination of teaching techniques or resources with the goal of making learning more interesting, better suited to the learner and more effective. Recently blended language learning has come to mean the combination of normal classroom activities with self-study learning supported by technology.
There are many possible elements, or modes, of learning to blend. Here are a few examples, going from blends that rely heavily on technology to those that require nothing extra on the part of the teacher or school.
In most situations, however, the main ingredient of course is still teacher-led lessons in the classroom; the online part is often delivered by a website that combines different components in one site. This is called a virtual environment, or VLE.
An important function of many VLE is that they can be used as a type of online workbook. Unlike printed workbooks, the exercises can be more varied and interactive. Also students are given instant feedback on their work.
Increasingly, there are also online materials for teachers to use in the classroom, like animated grammar presentations. That opens up a range of possble paths for teachers to choose whether to follow a lesson plan in the traditional way or go completely digital or find a balance between the two to suit their students.
Although learning outcomes can be improved by combining the best elements of classroom-based learning with the best that technology has to offer, we need to be careful in how we blend.
Our role as teachers is changing; as the opportunities for independent study increase "dramatically, it is important that we guide our students in the new choices they have available. Blended language learning is the perfect way to bridge the gap between the classroom and the online world, and it offers meaningful motivating and effective new paths to students´ learning goals.
{TS}Give a very brief answer to the following question:
According to the passage, what plays a major role in blended language learning, teacher-led lessons in the classroom or independent digital learning nowadays?

 Give a very brief answer to the following question:
What does the writer of the passage intend to argue about blended language learning?
