Read the following mini case and answer the questions: Topic: IKEA Timing: June 15, 2017 News: China Daily; Reuters Characters: Mr Torbjorn Loof, Chief Executive, Inter Ikea Group Now testing what does digital shopping mean? The furniture megastore IKEA has its own e-commerce services, however, partnering with a site like Amazon, which offers legendary free shipping for its Prime members, could bring Ikea's products to a whole new group of consumers. Even die-hard fans of the brand could perceivably shop online, avoiding the winding, labyrinth-like stores and fill up a virtual cart at their Ikea-furnished homes. Exorbitantly high shipping costs and a limited selection of products are limiting Ikea's own e-commerce platform. Considering that furniture is pretty big, it can't cost just a few bucks to ship something like a couch or dining room table, especially when the parts required to assemble it all, come in more than one box. Inter Ikea Group Chief Executive, Torbjorn Loof told Reuters. "We will test and pilot, to see 'what does this mean, what does digital shopping look like in future? We have one great advantage and that is that we design, produce, and distribute our own unique range." This would be the very first time that Ikea's experimented with selling through channels outside of its own operations. Additionally, Reuters reports that Ikea is planning to open smaller stores in different metropolitan areas to provide access to more customers. Give short answers to the following questions: 1. If you are Mr Torbjorn Loof, what your decision would be: should IKEA enter into partnership with Amazon? 2. How IKEA should engage in digital selling activities in China?

A cubic metal, with the edge length of 200 mm, elastic modulus E = 207×1000 MPa, and Poisson’s ratio ν = 0.3, is compressed along Z direction, and the metal expands along X and Y directions. If the compression along Z direction is 200 MPa, in order to limit the expansion along X and Y directions within 0.05 mm, what is the compression should be applied along X and Y directions?

The following questions pertain to the image characteristics of all types of mirrors discussed in this unit - plane mirrors, concave mirrors, and convex mirrors. Use your understanding of the object-image relationships for these three types of mirrors to answer the questions. The diagram below shows a spherical surface that is silvered on both sides. Thus, the surface serves as double-sided mirror, with one of the sides being the concave and one being the convex side. The principal axis, focal point, and center of curvature are shown. The region on both sides of the mirror is divided into eight sections (labeled M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, and W). Five objects (labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) are shown at various locations about the double-sided mirror. Use the diagram to answer the questions #1-6.1. The image of object 1 would be located in section ______. M、 N、 P、 Q、 R、 S、 T、 W 2. The image of object 2 would be located in section ______. M、 N、 P、 Q、 R、 S、 T、 W 3. The image of object 3 would be located in section ______. M、 N、 P、 Q、 R、 S、 T、 W 4. The image of object 4 would be located in section ______. M、 N、 P、 Q、 R、 S、 T、 W 5. The image of object 5 would be located in section ______. M、 N、 P、 Q、 R、 S、 T、 W 6. The double-sided mirror would cause virtual image to be formed of objects ________. M、 N、 P、 Q、 R、 S、 T、 W 7. How can a plane mirror, concave mirror, and/or convex mirror be used to produce an image that has the same size as the object? 8. How can a plane mirror, concave mirror, and/or convex mirror be used to produce an upright image? 9. How can a plane mirror, concave mirror, and/or convex mirror be used to produce a real image? 10. The image of an object is found to be upright and reduced in size. What type of mirror is used to produce such an image?

Please hand in your recording through the icourse before 5 P.M. March 22nd. Bikes-sharing fever across China A revival of bike has swept across China, with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving. Start-ups like Ofo and Mobike has boosted bike-sharing schemes. The bikes they provided are equipped with GPS, and those bikes are gaining ground among Chinese as they can be easily unlocked with a smartphone and left anywhere in public. At the same time, Chinese service operators are trying to address problems accompanying like vandalism and theft. For example, Mobike sets 100-point credit scores for each user, with points taken in the case of bad behavior. Once a score drops below 80, bike rental is increased to 100 yuan per 30 minutes, up from 0.5-1 yuan. However, those bikes are not only available for who uses apps, bikes with technical issues, or simple password are easy to take away to use privately or sell; different producers replace or vandalize bikes of other brands then put their own bikes instead. Those problems emerges not only in China, but also other places around the world. I guess it's more a discussion of national quality and profit distribution than bikes. Should government be involved in? Or should bike-sharing continue?

I. Read the following statements and choose the correct answer. There is no denying that students should learn something about how computers work, just as we expect them at least to understand that the internal-combustion engine (内燃机) has something to do with burning fuel, expanding gases and pistons (活塞) being driven. For people should have some basic idea of how the things that they use do what they do. Further, students might be helped by a course that considers the computer’s impact on society. But that is not what is meant by computer literacy. For computer literacy is not a form of literacy (读写能力); it is a trade skill that should not be taught as a liberal art. Learning how to use a computer and learning how to program one are two distinct activities. A case might be made that the competent citizens of tomorrow should free themselves from their fear of computers. But this is quite different from saying that all ought to know how to program one. Leave that to people who have chosen programming as a career. While programming can be lots of fun, and while our society needs some people who are experts at it, the same is true of auto repaid and violin-making. Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult, and it gets easier all the time as programs become more “user-friendly”. Let us assume that in the future everyone is going to have to know how to use a computer to be a competent citizen. What does the phrase “learning to use a computer” mean? It sounds like “learning to drive a car”, that is, it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that, once acquired, enable one to use a computer. In fact, “learning to use a computer” is much more like “learning to play a game”, but learning the rules of one game may not help you play a second game, whose rules may not be the same. There is no such a thing as teaching someone how to use a computer. One can only teach people to use this or that program and generally that is easily accomplished. 3. Learning to use a computer is getting easier all the time because ________.

A、A) programs are becoming less complicated

B、B) programs are designed to be convenient to users

C、C) programming is becoming easier and easier

D、D) programs are becoming readily available to computer users
