11.[完型填空] When people search online, they leave a trail that remains stored on the central computers of firms such as Google, Yahoo and Microsoft. Analyzing what we're looking for on the Web can offer a remarkable 1 into our anxieties and enthusiasms.
UK writer and Internet expert John Battelle wrote on his blog, "This can tell us 2 things about who we are and what we want as a 3 ." Google's experimental service Google Trends, for example, compares the numbers of people searching for different words and phrases from 2004 to the present. According to these graphs, sometimes people's interests are obviously 4 the news agenda: when the Spice Girls announce a reunion, there's an immediate 5 to find out more about them. Other results are strikingly seasonal: people go shopping online for coats in winter and short pants in summer.
The most fascinating possibility is that search data might help 6 people's behavior. When we search online for a certain brand of stereo system, we are surely indicating we're more 7 to buy that brand.
Perhaps we search for a political candidate's name when we are thinking about 8 him or her. Maybe we even search for "stock market crash" or "recession" just before we start 9 our investments. This information could clearly be useful to a smart marketer--it's already how Google decides which 10 to show on its search results pages--or to a political campaign manager.

12.[阅读理解]
The first reviews of the Apple Watch are in, and the verdict is: This is a good product with a bright future. But maybe don’t buy one quite yet.
That’s not to say the reviews weren’t growing, because they were. Anyone who was hoping that the Watch would fall short of the high standard that Apple boasts for its products is going to be disappointed. There’s no doubt, from there reviews, that Apple’s smartwatch is immediately the best of its kind on the market. It’s a satisfying indulgence.
But there are criticisms, and strong ones, about how far the product needs to go to appeal to everyone. At least, it certainly is a device that comes into its own after a “steep learning curve.”
Complaints are the most telling part of the reviews. Manjoo, for example, warns that this is not necessarily a simple device to understand. That’s contrary to Apple’s normal reputation—the iPhone, for example, is a great smartphone for technophobes because it’s so easy to navigate. But that’s not the market that should pick up the first generation of the Watch.
“There’s a good chance it will not work perfectly for most consumers right out of the box, because it is best after you learn to use various software settings to personalize use,” Manjoo notes. “Indeed, to a degree unusual for a new Apple device, the Watch is not suited for tech amateurs. It is designed for people who are flooded with notifications coming in through their phones, and for those who care to think about, and want to try to manage, the way the digital word intrudes on their lives.”
Other criticisms range from the fact that the device is a little slow to complaints that it’s still a little too clumsy to be fashionable, which could pose an obstacle to wider adoption. People are less certain about how smoothly it actually works. The Watch relies on other Apple software such as the company’s Siri voice control software, which fails to work as often as it’s successful.
Joanna Stern may have explained this sentiment best in saying that she’s generally not recommending that her friends buy this generation of the Watch. Every time she gazes down to admire it, she starts seeing how the next one will look better. If you’re not quite sure, it’s perfectly okay to wait for the next generation.
