media platforms. 19 ． .

【答案】16．B17．F18．C19．D20．E
【解析】

buy everything from clothes to household items and more.(如今大多数网站都是手机友好型，与此同时还有许多手机应

17．根据前一句“Hence, if anyone is looking to build an online brand, it is certainly important to develop a mobile-
friendly site for the ultimate online shopping experience.(因此，如果某人想要建立一个网上品牌，为最佳购物体验搭

Some famous e-commerce sites include Amazon, Taobao, JD and many others(一些著名的电子商务网站包括亚马逊、淘
宝、京东等)符合题意，F选项提出Amazon, Taobao, JD(亚马逊、淘宝和京东)作为例子。故选F。
18．前文“Social media sites became a go-to site for many users that spend time on their mobile devices.(社交媒体网站
