Group buying is one of the fastest growing trends in South Africa today. Industry leaders are confident the growth potential remains strong since group buying is location-specific. Start-up costs are low and profit room remains high, so many sites continue to receive invested money despite widespread criticism and Facebook’s decision to phase out of deal business due to privacy concerns.
In the early stages of all industries, some companied fail because they cannot compete with stronger companies in difficult economic conditions. To deal with difficult conditions, an alarming number of businesses are developing group buying websites in places like China and India, so the increase of group buying in South Africa is nothing more than a natural progression into the international mainstream.

The current group buying structure offered by the industry leaders works although there are still challenges to overcome.

Kelly Reeves was getting ready for a trip when her phone slipped into a sink full of water. Panic moment! She quickly picked up the wet phone and tried to turn it on, but nothing worked. Her first reaction? She got dressed, drove to the nearest store, and bought a new mobile at full price.
A new study finds that fear of losing your phone is a common illness. About 66 percent of those surveyed suffer from nomophobia or “no mobile phone phobia”. Interestingly, more women worry about losing their phone than men.
Fortunately, there’s a solution.
The first step is to figure out if you have nomophobia. Checking your phone too often is one thing, but the true sign of a problem is that you can’t conduct business or go about your routine when the fear becomes so severe.
Do you go to unusual lengths to make sure you have your phone? That’s another sign of a problem. If you find you check your phone plenty of times per hour, or a total of an hour per day, there may be a problem.
Some of the treatments are similar to those for treating anxiety attacks: leaving the phone behind and not checking e-mail or text messages, and then learning to tolerate the after anxiety. Even if this leads to a high level of worry and stress, the solution is to push through the fear and learn to deal with not having your phone.
Of course, there are also technological alternatives. Luis Levy, a co-founder at Novy PR, says he uses an application called Cerberus that can automatically track the location of his phone. To find it, he can just go to a website and see the phone’s location.
He also insures his phone through a service called Asurion. The company’s description of its product reads like a prescription for anxiety:”60 million phones are lost, stolen or damaged each year. You’ll have complete peace of mind knowing that your phone is protected and you can quickly reconnect with family, friends and work, as soon as the very next day!”
Why does the author mention Kelly’s experience in the first paragraph?

A.To introduce the topic for discussion.
B.To inform us that mobile phones are useful.
C.To warn us that we should be careful.
D.To tell us we should get phones ready for a trip.

The underlined word “nomophobia” in Paragraph 2 means “     ” .

A.habits of using mobile phones B.fear of losing mobile phones
C.eagerness for new mobile phones D.independence of mobile phones

Which of the following is a way to treat nomophobia?

A.Avoiding using a phone for some time
B.Learning more about modern technology
C.Protecting one’s phone against any damage
D.Not using a mobile phone in one’s daily work

Why can the service called Asurion help to treat nomophobia?

A.It lets you know other people also lose their phones.
B.It will give you a new phone through insurance.
C.It enables you to reconnect with your acquaintances.
D.It gives you a prescription to treat nomophobia

What is the passage mainly about?

A.Attitude toward mobile phones B.New mobile phone technology
C.Disadvantages of mobile phones D.Solutions to nomophobia

Moving to a new town or even a new neighborhood is stressful at any age, but a new study shows that frequent moves in childhood are related to poorer well-being(幸福) in adulthood, especially among people who are more introverted(内向的) or neurotic(神经症的).
The researchers tested the relationship between the number of childhood moves and well-being in a sample of 7108 American adults who were followed for 10 years.
“We know that children who move frequently are more likely to perform poorly in school and have more behavioral problems,” said the study’s lead author Shigehiro Oishi. “However, the long-term effects of moving on well-being in adulthood have been overlooked by researchers.”
The study’s participants, who were between the ages of 20 and 75, were contacted in 1994 and 1995 and were surveyed again 10 years later. They were asked how many times they had moved as children, as well as about their psychological well-being, personality type and social relationships.
The researchers found that the more times people moved as children, the more likely they were to report lower life satisfaction and psychological well-being at the time they were surveyed. The research also showed that those who moved frequently as children had fewer quality social relationships as adults.
The researchers also looked to see if different personality types affected frequent movers’ well-being. Among introverts, the more moves participants reported as children, the worse off they were as adults. “Moving a lot makes it difficult for people to keep long-term close relationships.” Said Oishi. “This might not be a serious problem for outgoing people who can make friends quickly and easily.”
The findings showed neurotic people who moved frequently reported less life satisfaction and poorer psychological well-being than people who did not move as much and people who were not neurotic. However, the number and quality of neurotic people’s relationships had no effect on their well-being, no matter how often they had moved as children. In the article, Oishi thinks this may be because neurotic people have more negative reactions to stressful life events in general.
“We can guess that moving often creates more stress,” Oishi said. “But we need more research on this link before we can conclude that moving often in childhood can, in fact, be dangerous to your health in the long-term.”
What can be learnt about the new study from the passage?

A.The participants were from all over the world.
B.It was carried out in two periods of time.
C.The participants were mostly old people.
D.The participants had poor health.

What is the purpose of the study?

A.To show the relationship between moving and performance in school
B.To show the relationship between moving and well-being
C.To investigate Americans’ well-being in general
D.To research the personality types of Americans

According to Oishi,            .

A.moving a lot is a serious problem for outgoing people
B.moving probably makes some people feel worried and tense
C.moving frequently is likely to help people make more friends
D.moving often is dangerous to people’s health in the long-term

The fifth and sixth paragraphs mainly talk about             .

A.the process of the study
B.the results of the study
C.the importance of the study
D.the theory of the study

It can be inferred from the passage that           .

A.adults should take more care over their kids
B.neurotic people are likely to move frequently
C.children who move frequently behave well in school
D.personality types are related to frequent movers’ happiness
