Questions 22 to 25 are based on the following talk.

The computer virus, is an outcome of the computer overgrowth in the1980s. The cause of the term "computer virus" is the likeness between the biological virus and the evil program infected with computers. The origin of this term came from an American science fiction The Adolescence of P-1written by Thomas J. Ryan, published in 1977. Human viruses invade a living cell and turn it into a factory for manufacturing viruses. However, computer viruses are small programs. They expand by attaching a copy of themselves to another program. Once attached to the host program, the vi-ruses then look for other programs to "infect". In this way, the virus can spread quickly throughout a hard disk or an entire organization when it infects a LAN or a multi-user system. The timing of the attack can be linked to a number of situations, including a certain time or date, the presence of a

particular file, the security level of the user, and the number of times a file is used. Likewise, the mode of attack varies. So called "benign" or the harmless viruses might simply display a message, like the one that infected IBM’ s main computer system last Christmas with a season’ s greeting. Malignant or the harmful viruses are designed to damage the system. The attack is to wipe out data, to delete files, or to format the hard disk. There are several kinds of anti-virus software providing the services for prevent the vi-res from attacking your computer. So you should install the anti-virus soft-ware before your access to the Internet. It will be no use to install the soft-ware after you’ve got infected.

第二部分 英语知识运用

参考译文

在英国，人们对警察这个职业持不同态度。大多数人认同他们和他们的工作，尽管有些人认为警察不应该有这样做的权力。

警察真正的职务是什么呢?这不太容易描述清楚，毕竟一个警察的工作有很多项。在英国，一个交警要花很大一部分时间指挥道路和高速公路的交通。他要保持交通顺畅，并处理意外事件。

警察还必须维持和平。如果在某个地方发生斗殴或纠纷，我们期望警察前来恢复秩序。他们经常要处理一些可能威胁到自身人身安全的危险状况。

我们期望警方破案。一个普通的警察，即使他不是侦探，往往也要帮助寻找和逮捕罪犯。

在有紧急情况时，如空难、火灾、交通事故、或者是抢劫发生时，我们呼叫谁?警察。因此，一个警察必须时刻准备着面对现代社会中任何紧急情况的发生。

警察是一个必不可少的职业。他们做得非常好，我支持他们。但我并不羡慕警察，因为我认为自己并不能胜任警察这份工作。

答案及解析

26.C 【解析】本题考查上下文理解。根据下文作者的观点可以排除A、B项，作者非常“欣赏”警察的工作，而不是“羡慕”。所以此题选择C。

27.A【解析】本题考查情态动词。should此处的意思是“应该”，意思是“有一些人认为警察不应该有他们所拥有的权力”。所以此题选择A。

28.D【解析】本题考查上下文理解。根据下文的描述，警察的工作种

类很多，又充满危险，并不简单。所以此题选择D。

29.B【解析】本题考查上一下文理解。根据下文的叙述，警察要做的工作有很多，所以“a number of jobs in one”(一个人要做很多工作)。这里的jobs的意思是“pieces of work，tasks(多种工作，任务)”。所以此题选择B。

30.B 【解析】本题考查固定搭配。“spend one’s time doing something,’某人花时间做某事。所以此题选择B。

31.B【解析】本题考查上下文理解。“motorway”(车道)上不能步行，只能开车，所以要用drivin9。所以此题选择B。

32.B【解析】本题考查词汇。“keep the traffic movin9”保持车流畅通。所以此题选择8。

33.A【解析】本题考查上下文理解。下文“there is a fight”(打架)告诉我们，警察的任务是要维护和平。所以此题选择A。

34.D 【解析】本题考查动词及词组的意义。waitfor意思是“等待某人”;call意思是“打电话”;expect somebody to do somethin9表示“期待某人做某事”;think of意思是“想起，想到”。D项最符合文中的意思“一旦有打架或者骚乱，人们就期待警察出现并维护秩序。”所以此题选择D。

35.C【解析】本题考查搭配。面对的情况是需要处理的，所以选择词组deal with;动词treat的意思是“对待、治疗”。所以此题选择C。

36.A【解析】本题考查句意理解。警察在工作时会有危险，对他们的安全造成威胁。所以此处选safety。故此题选择A。

37.D【解析】本题考查连词应用。这里的“although、even if”都可以引导让步状语从句，但是even if是一种不是事实的假设，而al.

though与主句的关系为转折，此处警察不是侦探是一种假设，所以选even if。故此题选择D。

38.C【解析】本题考查词组的意义区别。look for表示“寻找”;get.rid of表示“摆脱，除掉”;question意思是“质问”;sentence作为动词意思是“判处，宣判”。此处的意思是“警察寻找并追捕犯罪分子”。所以此题选择C。

39.D【解析】本题考查定语从句。根据下文的“we call the police”(我们报了警)，选择疑问词who，指人。所以此题选择D。

40.B【解析】本题考查上下文理解。根据前文的emergency(紧急情况)，可以看出只有选项a fire(火灾)属于“紧急情况”。所以此题选择8。

41.D【解析】本题考查连词。当我们面对紧急情况时总是会找警察，所以按照意思顺下来，就应该用So表示“因此，结果…”。所以此题选择D。

42.C【解析】本题考查上下文理解。面对紧急情况，警察随时随地都要“prepared”。另外，要注意词组“be prepared to dosomething”(准备好做某事)。所以此题选择C。

43.B【解析】本题考查句意理解。“in the modem world”：在现代社会

里。所以此题选择B。

44.A【解析】本题考查副词词汇。“extremely”在此处意思是“非常地，

极端地”，此处是赞扬警察的工作非常好。所以此题选择A。

45.C【解析】本题考查否定前移。当主句主语为第一人称、动词为think等词时，常用此否定前移结构，翻译成汉语应该是“我认为我不…”。A、D项都是否定词，与not构成双重否定，意思不对;forever不合此语境。所以此题选择C。

第三部分阅读理解

Pan A

参考译文

技术已经成为历史性改变的一种激励。在十八世纪初的英国和十九世纪的整个西方世界，技术就具有这样的一种力量。在商品制造领域，科学发现物的使用使得商品制造领域取得了快速改进，这改变了人们对工作的看法。最初的一截改变就是人力被其他形式的能量所代替。随之而来的是机器的加大使用，以便在更少的时间里生产产品。

人们也开发了可以用来生产一种产品相同零件的机器：每个钉子都造得跟其他任何钉子完全相同，也就是每个钉子都可以跟其他钉子互换。这就意味着商品可以大规模生产，虽然大规模生产要求把生产分成一个一个更小的部分。

一旦它实现，工人们再也不用着手处理产品以及花力气完成产品。取而代之的是，他们也许只工作过去工作量的千分之一，另外的工人按一定工序完成各自的部分就可以了。按照今天的标准，这种生产工作没什么令人奇怪的。技术高超的工人无法跟这种新的生产技艺相媲美，因为大规模生产使高规格的商品的大批量生产成为现实，而手工制作相形见绌。然而，技术好的个人并非唯一的受损失者，普通工人也如此。相似的改变让农民地位不保。不断增加的农业机械化把大批农民从耕地和农作物收获中解放出来。除了涌入快速发展的工业中心，他们别无选择。规则日益被机器制定。工人不再拥有自己的工具，他们的技术不再有价值，从而工作中的自豪感不再存在。工人供养、照顾和维修那些远比人类更有工作效率的机器，这大大减少了花费。

答案及解析

46.B【解析】细节题。原文中并未说l9世纪开始对工人剥削的增加。、其余三项均在第一段中间出现。所以此题选择B。

47.C【解析】理解题。单词this指上文“other forms of energy have taken theplace of human power.”(其他形式的能源已经代替了人类的劳动力)的内容。所以此题选择C。

48.D【解析】理解题。在条件句中，this指下文“goods could be mass

Produced”(货物大批生产)。所以此题选择D

49.D【解析】判断推理题。可从第三段第四句“Highlyskilled workers were unable to compare with the new production techniques.”(技术高超的工人也无法和新的生产技术相比)可知答案。所以此题选择D。

50.A【解析】判断推理题。可根据第三段中的“Similar changes forced farmers away.”(类似的改变赶走了农民)及“They had little choice but to streamtoward the rapidly developing industrial centers.”(除了慢慢向工业中心转移，他们没有其他选择)。所以此题选择A。

参考译文

“我们不是即将进入信息时代，而是置身其中感觉良好。”目前的预测是，到l990年，在美国大约3000万的工作或大约30%的工作市场将和电脑相关。l980年，所有美国高中只有21%的学校拥有一台或两台供学生用的电脑。而在1985年秋季，一项新的研究表明，美国一半的中等学校拥有十五台或更多的供学生用的电脑。现在教育专家、行政人员、甚至普通大众正要求所有学生会使用电脑。到2000年电脑知识将在超过80%的职业中成为必然要求。很快那些不会使用电脑的人将会被比作今日的“文盲”。

“电脑读写能力”是什么?这个术语本身暗示某种程度上与电脑有关，但是知道什么呢?时下的观点好像是，它应该包括对电脑是什么有个大概的了解，另外知道一些电脑的历史以及知道电脑运行方面的一些知识。

因此，每个地方的教育者不仅要留心观察正在做的事情，而且要注意在电脑教育领域什么应该做。如今，大部分成年人在几乎浑然不知内燃机如何运作的情况下能够驾驶一辆摩托车。在无法讲出它们的历史或解释它们怎样工作的情况下，我们也能够有效地使用各种电器设备。生意人已经充分利用打字机和加法机很多年了，但几乎没人知道怎样维修它们。那么为什么教电脑要通过教它们内部构造以及为什么工作呢?

更确切地说。首先我们必须把注意力放在教授电脑的有效使用上，正如工具一般。

“知道怎样使用电脑将会变得重要。我们不是在讨论‘汽车读写能力’;我们只需上车驾驶便是。”

答案及解析

51.D【解析】事实细节题。根据“…presentpredictions are that by1990，about thirty million jobsin the United States，or about thirty percent of the jobmarket，will be computer-related”(据1990年的预测，美国的三千万份工作，约占所有工作的30%，会和电脑相关)。所以此题选择D。

52.D 【解析】事实细节题。根据“Soon those people not educated in computer use will be compared tothose who are print-illiterate today”可知不懂电脑的人将会比作今日的“打字文盲”，所以此题选D。

53.C【解析】主旨大意题。阅读第一段可知信息时代电脑必不可少，不懂电脑相当于“文盲”，从而呼吁加强电脑教育。所以此题选择C。

54.A【解析】推理判断题。第三、四段中以现代人会骑摩托车和生意人学用打印机为例，告诉了我们学习电脑的最有效方法就是学会如何使用电脑，所以此题选择A。

55.A【解析】推理判断题。根据“Knowing how to use a computer is what’s going to be important.We don’t talk about automobile literacy.Wejust get in our cars and drive them”(知道如何使用电脑是很重要的…就像我们坐在车里开车一样)，由此可知学会操作电脑也不是很难的，所以此题选择A。

参考译文

地球上所有的生物皆是彼此依存的。动植物都难以单独存活，多数动物都需群居，某些树木和草类往往也是同类长在一起。有些时候，一种生物会猎食其他生物以维持生存，这样便构成了一种食物链。尽管这些食物链或简单或复杂，但都有如下两点共性：任何食物链都始于太阳(的能量)，终于其中某一环节的断裂。

任何生物都需要依赖太阳的能量得以生存。植物是唯一一类直接的受益者。它们的叶子就像一个小型的工厂，利用太阳光将空气和土壤中的水和有机物转化为生长所需的养料。

而植物又成为其他生物赖以生存的食物。与植物不同，动物不能直接摄取太阳的能量，它们必须通过植物将其转化。有些动物是食草性的，而有些则是食肉性的。食肉动物是间接的食草动物者。

那么人类又是怎样的呢?作为众多食物链中不可或缺的一员，人们在食用小麦、大米、蔬菜、水果和其他东西的同时也会吃肉喝奶。这便意味着我们摄取太阳能量是由植物到动物再到人类这样的一个过程。

自然界奥妙无穷，每一条食物链都能够单独的存在下去。一旦其中的某个环节不能提供足够的能量，那么便会有一些生物死去，从而维持食物链的持久平衡。

然而人类的贪婪和无知往往会破坏这种平衡，这不仅威胁到单个动植物的生存甚至危及整个自然界的生态平衡。人类污染了河流和海洋，破坏森林，滥杀野生动物和鸟类，最终自食恶果，食用被污染的鱼类而导致各种怪病的蔓延。在许多地方鱼类已经灭绝了，人们根本没有鱼可以吃。所以自然界中任何生物之间都是息息相关的，一旦破坏了这种生态平衡，那么将会危及所有生物的生存。

答案及解析

56.C【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“Everything living on earth-each plant and animal-needs other livingthings”(地球上万物，不论动物还是植物，都依赖于别的生物)可推知，没有其他的生物，地球上的万物就无法生存。因此答案为c。

57.D【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段中“Only plants Can use this energy directly.Theirleaves are little factories that use sunlight to make food from water andthings in the soil and air.”可知只有植物能直接利用阳光。植物的叶乎就像是小工厂，它们利用阳光、水、土壤和空气里的东西制造食物。可推知植物的食物是由阳光、水、土壤和空气里的东西制成的。所以此题选择D。

58.D【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“and all food chains become broken up if one of the linksdisappears”可推知如果一个食物链被破坏，整个食物链就断了。所以此题选择D。

59.B【解析】事实细节题。根据第二段中“only plants Can use this energy directly”可知答案为B。

60.A【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“But men in their greed(贪婪)and ignorance(无知)often break up the food chain”可推知是人的无知和贪婪破坏了食物链。根据最后一句“Breaking the links puts all life in danger.”可知破坏食物链使所有生命处于危险之中。因此可推知所有生命处于危险之中是因为人类破坏了食物链。所以此题选择A。

Erum Nadeem：

你关于幸福的文章使我很振奋。有一个非常有趣的地方值得注意，在32—33页所列举的”幸福八步”或许也可以看成是我们文化传统的价值。如果人们可以从这些方面看到我们的价值，那么将不会有误解一只有幸福。

Sander Tideman：

我很高兴你在幸福科学方面的专注。然而，如果能够提及在全民幸福的背景下看经济发展政策，那么这个问题就变得更加完整了。全民幸福这个概念的提出是因为认识到全国总产出并不能准确地反映出一个国家老百姓的幸福安乐水平。它的提出具有深远的影响。因为幸福有一个科学基础，它可以在更大的社会范围内得到发展和提升。

PaulAboh：

幸福是一个礼物，不是一件商品。即使穷人也有获得和分享幸福的能力。我们能够在我们常常认为理应如此的小事情上发现乐趣—一个微笑，一双友爱的手，一个吻，一个招手，在背上轻轻地一拍，一杯水，一个承诺。当你发现幸福的源泉时，你也知道。有时幸福会溢出，但决不会损坏。

Mansoor Malik：

幸福不是成功，财富或名誉的产物。它是我们对外界环境做出的心理反应。坚信我们长期珍视的文化传统的价值是幸福安康的源泉。幸福来自于帮助他人，给予我们所能给予的一切一帮助，希望，爱，尊重，同情或者只是一个微笑。

Peter Fischer：

当觉得似乎有很多原因能导致不幸福时，我很欣赏你关于幸福的想法。当然，那些可怜的，经常挨饿的非洲孤儿是最有理由说不幸福的。那么什么能够让他们露出笑容呢?然而，如你在文章中指出的那样，我们不能指望着因为有很多朋友或者许多钱而使自己感到幸福。我们拥有一种令人惊奇的能力来使自己感到幸福。

Since their coming into being,automobiles have been significantly contributing to human industries,agricultures, and even the daily lives.

It is automobiles that have beenshaping and reflecting the ways humans work and think. They accelerate thesustainable economic development. They boost industries. They also catalyzescientific research.

But nobody can deny thatautomobiles have also exerted some unfavorable impacts on social and economicfabric. First of all, they have seriously

polluted the environment in whichhumans survive. Secondly, traffic jam

wastes lots of time. Finally, theyalso waste the money, especially in metropolis.

My opinion is that in theforeseeable future, scientists will be able to solve all problems. Exactly,human will eventually be able to minimize the harmful effects of automobiles,whereas their advantages can be maximized.
