10.In New York,Ma Yun witnessed the Alibaba Group opening on the New York stock exchange with the largest initial public offering (IPO,新股發(fā)行) in American history."Alibaba,the world's largest Internet commerce company makes China equal to the US in the rapidly increasing global competition for technological innovation (創(chuàng)新) and economic transformation"commented the South China Morning Post.
It has also made Ma Yun China's richest man with a fortune of around﹩25 billion (153 billion yuan),reported Reuters.
It's reported that Ma's rags-to-riches journey is just as spectacular as his Internet empire.Ma failed the national college entrance exams twice before he was finally in Hangzhou Normal University on his third attempt and failed in finding a suitable job several times.Also,Mr.Ma is a big believer in perseverance,which was proved in his English study experience.
However,it was his vision and goals that launched his career.
During a short trip to the US as an interpreter in 1995,Ma first experienced the Internet.He believed in the Internet's business potential when few other Chinese people did.He started Alibaba in his Hangzhou apartment,with 17 friends and﹩60,000 of funds.At the time,when e-commerce was unheard of in China,"I called myself a blind man riding on the back of blind tigers,"he once said,according to The Guardian.His unusual ideas earned him the nickname"Crazy Jack Ma".
Indeed,Ma is different.Although he is very thin and about 160cm tall,"Ma is yet animated and forceful,said The Guardian."He is funny,creative,and a compelling (引人注目的) speaker.
Ma told Time magazine that he was"old for the Internet".He started to slow down and looked around.According to The Wall Street Journal,Ma"plans to open a tai chi club with the actor Jet Li,build an entrepreneur (企業(yè)家) university in Hangzhou and continue to work on several environmental projects."

點(diǎn)評(píng) 做題技巧:一、抓住文章的首段與末段及段落的首句和末句.文章的首段與末段、段落的首句和末句,一般表達(dá)文章的主題和段落的中心思想,其它段落及句子只起補(bǔ)充、說明、解釋或引申的作用.二、進(jìn)行合理推斷.答題時(shí),要領(lǐng)會(huì)句子之間的邏輯關(guān)系,特別是相鄰句子之間的關(guān)系,這樣有利于理解全文.表示邏輯關(guān)系的標(biāo)志詞是連接詞、副詞、代詞、介詞短語、關(guān)系詞、插入語等,通讀時(shí)應(yīng)特別注意.三、猜測推敲生詞.閱讀短文時(shí),常常會(huì)遇到一些生詞.首先要把整段、整篇文章看完.通過對(duì)全篇短文的理解,就很有可能猜測出生詞的大意.四、利用常識(shí).解題多了解一些常識(shí)性知識(shí)有利于閱讀理解.五、正確理解題干.縱觀歷年高考試題,閱讀理解試題一般有以下幾種題型:一是直接回答who,whom,which,what,where,when,why,how等疑問詞引起的細(xì)節(jié)問題;二是猜測詞義題;三是推理判斷題;四是綜合概括題.在做閱讀理解題時(shí),一定要仔細(xì)看完、看清楚試題要求再作答,特別要注意NOT,TRUE,EXCEPT等詞.有時(shí),要先看題后閱讀文章,帶著問題去讀短文,可縮短閱讀時(shí)間,效果也許會(huì)更好.
