D．Brain cancer research started after Gershwin's death.

　　【解析】　推理判断题。根据原文最后一段，Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages.即说明了B选项“The death of Gershwin was widely reported.”故B正确。其他选项均没有涉及。

　　【答案】　B

　　B

　　(2015·安徽六校第一次联考)It is amazing to note that the Internet is still such a new device, and yet it is one of the fastest and most powerful media tools. But think about it for a moment. On the Internet, a big online company can be run by two guys out of their garage. So it is only reasonable that people shopping on the Net would be a little _leery of the security levels.

　　Internet giants such as Microsoft knew consumer confidence was the key to getting virtual(虚拟) shopping off the ground, and they work hard to make people feel safe to shop online.

　　Credit card companies, too, quickly saw the potential for Internet shopping, and have installed things like online shopping insurance for people. If you ever have a problem with your online credit purchases, many credit card companies will happily refund(返还) your money and then set their claws on the company that wronged you. Now that's buying power!

　　There are other bonuses for online shoppers, of course. No line­ups, for one. No annoying mall shopping carts with broken wheels and kids crying because their parents won't get them what they want.
