阅读下列短文, 从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

      Easter is a festival to celebrate the rebirth after the cold winter. We can see lots of symbols of new life on Easter, like eggs, chicks and rabbits.

    Unlike Christmas, Easter isn't on the same date each year. It is on the first Sunday after the full moon following the spring equinox(春分). People in the UK have a holiday which is almost as long as the Christmas holiday. It's a public holiday. Everyone looks forward to their Easter break because it's a moment to relax, have a short holiday or visit family and friends.

    For most England children, Easter means chocolate eggs. Shops are full of chicks, rabbits and flowers. They sell a lot of chocolate eggs. Ninety million chocolate eggs are sold in the UK each year, and each child gets on average(平均) eight chocolate eggs that day. Most doctors advise people to eat Easter eggs in moderation(适度).

    On Easter Day, people paint on eggs to give others as presents. And they always hide eggs for children to find. Some places even hold competitions to see who can roll an egg down a hill without breaking it!

When my first wartime Christmas came, I was in a new soldier school in Ashland and not sure if I could make it home for the holidays. On the afternoon of December 23, we were told some of us would have three-day holidays posted. I was one of the lucky soldiers.

It was Christmas Eve when I arrived home, and a light snow had fallen. Mother opened the front door. I could see over her, into the corner of the living room where the tree had always stood. There were lights all colors shining in the green of the tree.

"Where did it come from?" I asked.

I asked the gate boy to cut it" my mother said. "I wouldn't have had one just for myself, but you called in such a rush! He just brought it in this afternoon."

The tree was almost as tall as the room, and the Tree Top Star was in its place. A few branches reached about a little disorderly at the side, I thought, and there was a big bare branch(树枝) showing in the middle. But the tree filled the room with the pleasant smell of Christmas.

"It's not like the one you want to find, " my mother went on. "Yours were always in good shape and you were good at it. I think the gate boy didn't know where to look for a better one." "Don't worry." I told her. "It's perfect."

It wasn't, of course, but at the moment I understood for the first time, all Christmas trees are perfect.

 根据短文内容,回答下列问题。

How much do you know about "Taobao"? Do you often buy goods(商品) online? During every big festival hundreds of millions of dollars is spent online. "Who needs a shopping mall if you have Taobao? I am a Taobaoer," says Wang Fang, 28, a writer in Beijing. Taobao, China's largest online shopping site(地点), has become an important part of Wang Fang's life. She spends half of her salary (工资) on Taobao. A growing number of Chinese Internet users like Wang have found the pleasure of online shopping. Most online shoppers are students and young workers. People can find almost everything they need online, from clothes to books, from candy to DVD players. And clothing and household(家用的) things are the most popular goods bought online. 

The biggest attraction(吸引力) for buyers is the low prices of online goods. Buyers can also check the information easily. They can compare the prices of the same kind of goods from different sellers, and choose the cheapest one. When someone asks her about the safety(安全) of online shopping, Wang Fang said, It's very safe and easy. If you can't get the goods from the sellers or are not satisfied(满意的) with them, the shop owners will not get the money. You can also get a refund(退款) if you give the goods back.
