You've probably heard that brick — and —...

    You've probably heard that brick — and — mortar retail(实体零售)is in trouble. Even industry giants are closing hundreds of stores. Given retail's gradual change to mobile and e-commerce, you may be wondering. What will retail look like in the future? Nobody knows. But here are a few things you can expect to see based on current technology.

Ultrafast delivery is coming. Today, the normal practice is two — day delivery. But if you've been paying attention, you know that's changing. In fact, a surprisingly high 25% of consumers said that they would abandon their orders if one — day delivery wasn't available. Of course, that's just the beginning. Two-hour delivery is coming in the foreseeable future, and Amazon has already been trying 30-minute delivery.

Your kitchen will resupply itself. You won't have to worry about running out of essentials like coffee, pet food or snacks because your containers will sense stock levels and replace those items without you having to lift a finger. No more waking up to find your coffee store is empty or last-minute trips to the grocery store because you forgot to buy pet food.

Know exactly what's in stock and where. Have you ever gone to a store hoping to buy something, only to learn that they were out of stock? A new feature from Google Home allows people to ask Google Assistant to find in-stock products at the closest store. For example: "Google, where can I find the Nintendo Switch console?" An assistant will tell you how many stores have it right then and how close they are. Of course, it isn't currently available for all stores in all locations, but you can already see a future when it has become standard.

Convenience, experience, and options——retail will take on a new look.

    Going to college was not optional. In my family, it was just another step toward the American dream. As soon as I graduated. I enrolled in the English Department of Colorado State University. I went on to earn two scholarships, and membership in the National Honor Society. I truly believed the hard work was worth it.

It wasn't until a few months ago that I realized how clueless I was. I had been combing through the classifieds when my eyes fell upon my dream job: ''National College Magazine looking for writers''

Thrilled, I spent the weekend composing a resume. Needless to say. I was stunned when the interviewer barely took one glance before throwing it aside.

''No experience'', he said flatly.

I felt like screaming, "What do you mean, no experience? Look at these grades. ''

I was left to absorb the shock of rejection, thinking that nobody ever told me that a 4.0 student would be turned down for a job.

Didn't all of my hard work count for anything?

I see plenty of demands for two years of experience at a print publication, but none requiring extensive knowledge of how to write academic papers. Yet 95% of my energy in school went toward the latter, leaving me little time to devote to anything else. If career preparation is supposed to be the point of college, then why isn't it the focus?

Has a college degree just become another societal status symbol like fancy cars or designer clothes?

Given my experience. I feel that a college degree would be a lot more valuable if students were required to get some outside experience to supplement their in-class knowledge. Instead of requiring four science classes, why not three science classes and an internship? In my college career. I took one class that taught me how to write and submit essays for publication. This ever so brief taste of the real world was like holding an ice cream sundae in front of a child and only giving her a small bite.

1.Why did the author study so hard at college?

A.To maintain a family tradition.

B.To land an ideal job.

2.What accounted for the author's failure in job hunting?

A.His fancy resume.

B.His misjudgment in high scores.

C.His lack of experience.

D.His poor performance in the interview.

3.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph imply?

A.Academic writing is a small part of college life.

B.College education always covers unimportant things.

C.Competition in college is not as fierce as that in the real world.

D.The author feels held back by his lack of real-world experience.

4.What does the author want to tell us by writing this article?

A.Get a college degree and you will go far.

B.College students should make the best of their time.

C.Career preparation is a necessity for college education.

D.Landing a successful career is better than a college degree.

72 hours in Beijing
