On May 21, 2000, some American scientists were working at the computers to look for information they needed . Suddenly they saw a lot of very bright red spots crossing the computers’ screens. At the same time the computers were working much slower. To find out what was happening they stopped their work to check some parts of the computers. To their horror, they found out that most of their stored information was got rid of by computer viruses (病毒). Obviously all these computers had been infected by computer viruses.
It is said that the computer viruses were made by two or three Philippine young men fond of playing tricks. They all had excellent education. They created the viruses just to show their intelligence. The kind of computer virus is named I Love You Virus. This virus can hide in computers for long. When the time comes they will attack the computers by lowering the important functions, damaging their normal programs or even getting rid of a great deal of information which operators of the computers often use or store, what’s worse, it still can reproduce itself in great quantities within a short time.
We come to know that “I Love You” Virus often attacks computers on Mondays and that it is spreading to many computers in the world. Among the countries that suffered computer viruses last year are Britain, Australia, Switzerland and the USA. Those who made the computer muses have been found out slowly and carefully. But till now, how to get rid of the terrible viruses remains a problem.
1.When the viruses attack the computers, the computers will work _______.
　　A. normally　B. abnormally　C. faster　D. well
2 .Two or three Philippine young men created the computer viruses to _______.
　　A. damage the computers
　　B. test their ability quickly
　　C. tell the world that they were intelligent
　　D. play a trick in operators of the computers
3. According to the passage, computer viruses seem to________.
　　A. have been in nature for years
　　B. exist in any computers
　　C. be able to be got rid of in the near future
　　D. be difficult to get rid of at present
4.The most serious damage caused by the viruses is that_______.
　　A. the computer’s funtions are lowered
　　B. the normal programs are damaged
　　C. all the information stored in the computers is gone
　　D. the computers infected by the viruses can no longer be used
5. According to the passage, which of the following is true?
　　A. Scientists are trying to find a way to get rid of the viruses.
　　B. The viruses will come to the new computer after staying in the old one for some time.
　　C. Last year four countries found their computers were infected by 　　viruses.
　　D. The “I Love You” Virus is a great harm to human health.

1--5   BCDCA 

1.根據(jù)文章中第一自然段，第三、四句話：To find out what was happening they stopped their work to check some parts of the computers. To their horror, they found out that most of their stored information was got rid of by computer viruses (病毒). 可以找到正確答案。
2.第二段中第三句 “They created the viruses just to show their intelligence” 表明了他們制造病毒的目的是為了顯示智商高，B選項(xiàng)理解為測(cè)試能力，這與文中內(nèi)容有出入。
3.文章最后一句說(shuō)明如何除去病毒仍是問(wèn)題，這就證明病毒難以除去。B選項(xiàng)和C選項(xiàng)文中沒(méi)有提及。
4.根據(jù)文章中第二自然段最后一句話： When the time comes they will attack the computers by lowering the important functions, damaging their normal programs or even getting rid of a great deal of information which operators of the computers often use or store, what’s worse, it still can reproduce itself in great quantities within a short time.可知最佳答案為C。
5.文中只在第二段中提到該病毒可在電腦中潛伏一段時(shí)間才發(fā)作并復(fù)制，并未提到將向其他電腦擴(kuò)散，所以B不正確。最后一段落中提到了四個(gè)受到病毒攻擊的國(guó)家名稱，但這并不表示只有四個(gè)國(guó)家受到電腦病毒攻擊，所以C太狹隘。

Walk through the Amazon rainforest today and you will find it is steamy, warm, damp and thick. But if you had been around 15,000 years ago, during the last ice age, would it have been the same ?For more than 30 years, scientists have been arguing about how rainforests like the Amazon might have reacted（反應(yīng)）to the cold ,dry climates of the ice ages ,but until now ,no one has reached a satisfying answer.
Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to slow global warming . Currently the trees in the Amazon take in around 500 million tons of CO2 each year; equal to the total amount of CO2 giving off in the UK each year. But how will the Amazon react to future climate change? If it gets drier ,will it still survive and continue to draw down CO2 ?Scientists hope that they will be able to learn in advance how the rainforest will manage in the future by understanding how rainforests reacted to climate change in the past.
Unfortunately ,getting into the Amazon rainforest and collecting information are very difficult .To study past climate ,scientists need to look at fossilized pollen ,kept in lake muds .Going back to the last ice age means drilling deep down into lake sediments （沉淀 物）,which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery .There are very few roads and paths ,or places to land helicopters and aeroplanes .Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest ,but this still leaves vast areas between the rivers completely unsampled（未取樣）.So far ,only a handful of cores have been drilled that go back to the last ice age and none of them provide enough information to prove how the Amazon rainforest reacts to climate change.
64．The underlined phrase “mopping up” in the second paragraph means      .
A．cleaning up          B．taking in                C．wiping out           D．giving out
65．How will the Amazon rainforest react to future climate change?
A．It’ll get drier and continue to remove CO2 .
B．It’ll remain steamy ,warm ,damp and thick .
C．It’ll get warmer and then colder and drier.
D．There is no exact answer up to present.
66．What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?
A．It’s important to drill deep down into lake sediments to collect information.
B．It’s impossible to prove how climate changes in the Amazon rainforest.
C．It’s hard to collect information for studies of the past climate in the Amazon rainforest.
D．It’s necessary to have specialized equipment and machinery to study the past climate.
67．The best title for this passage may probably be        .
A．Studies of the Amazon                          B．Climates of the Amazon
C．Secrets of the Rainforests                     D．Changes of the Rainforests

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills（讀寫能力）. With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence（自信心）,  according to Intermountain Therapy Animals（ITA）in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs （READ）.
The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache,” said Lisa Myron, manager of the children’s department.
Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library plans to repeal it in April, according to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.
59．What is mainly discussed in the text?
A．Children’s reading difficulties.              B．Advantages of raising dogs.
C．Service in public library.        D．A special reading program.
60．Specialists use dogs to listen to children reading because they think__________.
A．dogs are young children’s best friends
B．children can play with dogs while reading
C．dogs can provide encouragement for shy children
D．children and dogs understand each other
61．By saying “The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea”, the writer means the library ______________.
A．uses dogs to attract children           B．a(chǎn)ccepts the idea put forward by ITA
C．has opened a children’s department        D．has decided to train some dogs
62．A “pawgraphed” book is most probably _________.
A．a(chǎn) book used in Saturday classes             B．a(chǎn) book written by the children
C．a(chǎn) prize for the children                  D．a(chǎn) gift from parents

As a professor at a large American university,there is a phrase that I hear often from students:“I’m only a 1050.”The unlucky students are speaking of the score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test(SAT),which is used to determine whether they will be admitted to the college or university of their choice,or even if they have a chance to get a higher education at all.The SAT score,whether it is 800,1100 or 1550,has become the focus at this time of their life.
It is obvious that if students value highly their test scores,then a great amount of their self-respect is put in the number.Students who perform poorly on the exam are left feeling that it is all over.The low test score,they think,will make it impossible for them to get into a good college.And without a degree from a prestigious university,they fear that many of life’s doors will remain forever closed.
According to a study done in the 1990s,the SAT is only a reliable indicator of a student’s future performance in most cases.Interestingly,it becomes much more accurate when it is set together with other indicators-like a student’s high school grades.Even if standardized tests like the SAT could show a student’s academic proficiency(學(xué)業(yè)水平)，they will never be able to test things like confidence,efforts and willpower,and are unable to give us the full picture of a student’s potentialities(潛力).This is not to suggest that we should stop using SAT scores in our college admission process.The SAT is an excellent test in many ways,and the score is still a useful means of testing students.However,it should be only one of many methods used.
小題1:The purpose of the SAT is to test students’______.
A．strong will
B．a(chǎn)cademic ability
C．full potentialities
D．confidence in school work
小題2:Students’ self-respect is influenced by their______.
A．scores in the SAT
B．a(chǎn)chievements in mathematics
C．job opportunities
D．money spent on education
小題3:“A prestigious university” is most probably______.
A．a(chǎn) famous university
B．a(chǎn) technical university
C．a(chǎn) traditional university
D．a(chǎn)n expensive university

Teens don’t understand the big fuss(小題大做).As the first generation to grow up in a wired world,they hardly know a time when computers weren’t around,and they eagerly catch the chance to spend hours online,chatting with friends.So what?
But researchers nationwide are increasingly worried that teens are becoming isolated(孤寂),less skillful at person-to-person relationships,and perhaps numb(麻木) to the cheatings that are so much a part of the e-mail world.“And a teen’s sense of self and values may be changed in a world where personal connections can be limitless,”said Sherry Turkle.
Another researcher,Robert Kraut,said he’s worried about the “opportunity costs”(機(jī)會(huì)成本) of so much online time for youths.He found that teens who used computers,even just a few hours a week,showed increased signs of loneliness and social isolation.“Chatting online may be better than watching television,but it’s worse than hanging out(閑逛) with real friends,”he said.
Today’s teens,however,don’t see anything strange in the fact that the computer takes up a central place in their social lives.“School is busy and full of pressure.There’s almost no time to just hang out,”said Parker Rice,17.“Talking online is just catch-up time.”
Teens say they feel good about what they say online or taking the time to think about a reply.Some teens admit that asking someone for a date,or breaking up,can be easier in message form,though they don’t want to do so.But they insist there’s no harm.
小題1:The researchers argue that______.
A．teens may develop a different sense of values
B．nothing is wrong with teens’ chatting online
C．teens can manage their social connections
D．spending hours online does much good to teens
小題2:Teens think that talking online can help them______.
A．use computers properly
B．improve their school work
C．develop an interest in social skills
D．reduce their mental pressures
小題3:The text mainly deals with______.
A．teens’ pleasant online experience
B．teens’ computer skills and school work
C．the effects of the computer world on teens
D．different opinions on teens’ chatting online
小題4:The purpose of the text is to______.
A．describe computer research results
B．draw attention to teens’ computer habits
C．suggest ways to deal with problem teens
D．discuss problems teens have at school

Brittnie Pemberton listened attentively as Jim Herrick took her and her mother, Tanya, on a brief tour of San Diego State University on Thursday. Her dream is much closer to reality after she received a promise from the university. The university promised that she would get a full four-year scholarship to the school as long as she met the entrance requirements.
Brittnie, 10, laughed. Her mom cried.
They live at the Salvation Army Door of Hope, a living center for homeless women and their children. Photojournalist Linda Solomon met them in August when she came to the facility and taught boys and girls, ages three-and-a-half to 13, how to take pictures. She gave them all disposable cameras and told them to capture images that reflected their dreams. The children's images - a big house, a church, a playground, a backyard and more - are kept. This is a project called“Pictures of Hope" organized by the Salvation Army
"I wish to go to college, so I took a picture of the sign out in front of San Diego State University," Brittnie said last month. The Fletcher Elementary School fifth-grader was pointing to the Christmas card bearing her photograph.
Adrienne Finley, development director at the Salvation Army, hosted a reception for Solomon, who told Finley about the president of a small university who gave a child the scholarship she dreamed of last year.
Finley called his old friend, Herrick, who serves as the SDSU President. "We have a wonderful opportunity here to make a difference in a little girl's life," Finley said. Soon her mom and Brittnie were face to face with SDSU President Jim Herrick.
"You must be Brittnie," he said, reaching out to shake her hand. She quickly pulled her hands out of the pockets of the new SDSU sweatshirt she had been given that morning.
They sat down at a table in his office and talked about college, about science, about her love of math and his hope that she and other girls wouldn't lose interest in those subjects, as happens to many girls as they grow older.
Then they talked about how much discipline she would need over the next eight years to make her dream come true. Both signed the paper outlining their agreement to the terms of the scholarship. Back outside on the sunny campus, Brittnie admitted she's tempted sometimes not to do her homework. "But not anymore," she said.
小題1:According to the first paragraph, we can know that________.
A．it is certain that Brittnie will be admitted into SDSU
B．Brittnie will not need to pay for her university education if she can study in SDSU.
C．Jim Herrick promised Brittnie’s mother to offer her a job in SDSU.
D．Brittnie made a promise that she would never give up her dream. .
小題2:The Salvation Army Door of Hope is intended to ______.
A．recruit young men and young women to help others
B．provide shelters for homeless moms and their children
C．carry out some projects to help those who are in trouble
D．help homeless people no matter who they are
小題3:According to the passage, the following statements are true EXCEPT_______.
A. Linda Solomon taught children photography to inspire them.
B. Children told people about their dreams through their pictures.
C. Brittnie took a picture standing at the gate of SDSC.
D. Brittnie’s picture was so good that it was printed on a Christmas card.
小題4:From what Ferrick said to Brittnie, we can infer that_______.
A．Ferrick has a strong belief that Brittnie will be a scientist in the future.
B．Brittnie, as well as some other girls, is interested in both science and math.
C．some girls would not be so good in science and math as boys as they grow older.
D．Brittnie will never lose interest in science because of her deep love
小題5:Which of the following words can best describe Brittnie’s feelings when she signed
the agreement about the scholarship ?
A．EncouragedB．CalmC．Nervous D．Proud

　　For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.
　　Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye-pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants（污染物） can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer, Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution. People began to notice the problem in the early 1970s. It is that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using manmade building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases. As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building— green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and through its tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square metres of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.
　　小題1:Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because ________.
A．the man - made building materials let out dangerous gases inside houses
B．there may be more harmful gases outside houses
C．the flow of air indoors is limited
D．indoor air pollution can make a person seriously ill
　　小題2:The most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants because________.
A．they may let out more oxygen which people need
B．they can absorb different kinds of the harmful indoor chemicals
C．they can take in all kinds of indoor pollutants
D．they can make your house prettier and more healthy
