18、r unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.In the villages
19、 of the English countryside there are still people who remember the good old days when no one bothered to lock their doors. There simply wasnt any crime to worry about.Amazingly, these happy times appear still to be with us in the worlds biggest community. A new study by Dan Farmer, a gifted program
20、mer, using an automated investigative program of his own called SATAN, shows that the owners of well over half of all World Wide Web sites have set up home without fitting locks to their doors.SATAN can try out a variety of well-known hacking (黑客的) tricks on an Internet site without actually breakin
21、g in. Farmer has made the program publicly available, amid much criticism. A person with evil intent could use it to hunt down sites that are easy to burgle (闯入.行窃).But Farmer is very concerned about the need to alert the public to poor security and, so far, events have proved him right. SATAN has d
22、one more to alert people to the risks than cause new disorder. So is the Net becoming more secure? Far from it. In the early days, when you visited a Web site your browser simply looked at the content. Now the Web is full of tiny programs that automatically download when you look at a Web page, and
23、run on your own machine. These programs could, if their authors wished, do all kinds of nasty things to your computer.At the same time, the Net is increasingly populated with spiders, worms, agents and other types of automated beasts designed to penetrate the sites and seek out and classify informat
24、ion. All these make wonderful tools for antisocial people who want to invade weak sites and cause damage.But lets look on the bright side. Given the lack of locks, the Internet is surely the worlds biggest (almost) crime-free society. Maybe that is because hackers are fundamentally honest. Or that t
25、here currently isnt much to steal. Or because vandalism ( 恶意破坏) isnt much fun unless you have a peculiar dislike for someone.Whatever the reason, lets enjoy it while we can. But expect it all to change, and security to become the number one issue, when the most influential inhabitants of the Net are
26、 selling services they want to be paid for.21.By saying “. owners of well over half of all World Wide Web sites have set up home without fitting locks to their doors (Lines 3-4, Para. 2), the author means that _.A) those happy times appear still to be with usB) there simply wasnt any crime to worry
27、aboutC) many sites are not well-protectedD) hackers try out tricks on an Internet site without actually breaking inC22.SATAN, a program designed by Dan Fanner can be used _.A) to investigate the security of Internet sitesB) to improve the security of the Internet systemC) to prevent hackers from bre
28、aking into websitesD) to download useful programs and informationA23.Fanners program has been criticized by the public because.A) it causes damage to Net browsersB) it can break into Internet sitesC) it can be used to cause disorder on all sitesD) it can be used by people with evil intentD24.The aut
29、hors attitude toward SATAN is _.A) enthusiasticB) criticalC) positiveD) indifferentC25.The author suggests in the last paragraph that _.A) we should make full use of the Internet before security measures are strengthenedB) we should alert the most influential businessmen to the importance of securit
30、yC) influential businessmen should give priority to the improvement of Net securityD) net inhabitants should not let security measures affect their joy of surfing the InternetAPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.I came away from my years of teaching on the college and un
31、iversity level with a conviction that enactment (扮演角色), performance, dramatization are the most successful forms of teaching. Students must be incorporated, made, so far as possible, an integral part of the learning process. The notion that learning should have in it an element of inspired play woul
32、d seem to the greater part of the academic establishment merely silly, but that is nonetheless the case. Of Ezekiel Cheever, the most famous schoolmaster of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, his onetime student Cotton Mather wrote that he so planned his lessons that his pupils “came to work as though th
33、ey came to play, and Alfred North Whitehead, almost three hundred years later, noted that a teacher should make his/her students “glad they were there.Since, we are told, 80 to 90 percent of all instruction in the typical university is by the lecture method, we should give close attention to this fo
34、rm of education. There is, I think, much truth in Patricia Nelson Limericks observation that “lecturing is an unnatural act, an act for which God did not design humans. It is perfectly all right, now and then, for a human to be possessed by the urge to speak, and to speak while others remain silent.
35、 But to do this regularly, one hour and 15 minutes at a time. for one person to drag on while others sit in silence?. I do not believe that this is what the Creator. designed humans to do.The strange, almost incomprehensible fact is that many professors, just as they feel obliged to write dully, bel
36、ieve that they should lecture dully. To show enthusiasm is to risk appearing unscientific, unobjective; it is to appeal to the students emotions rather than their intellect. Thus the ideal lecture is one filled with facts and read in an unchanged monotone.The cult (推崇) of lecturing dully, like the c
37、ult of writing dully, goes back, of course, some years. Edward Shils, professor of sociology, recalls the professors he encountered at the University of Pennsylvania in his youth. They seemed “a priesthood, rather uneven in their merits but uniform in their bearing; they never referred to anything p
38、ersonal. Some read from old lecture notes and then haltingly explained the thumb-worn last lines. Others lectured from cards that had served for years, to judge by the worn edges. The teachers began on time, ended on time, and left the room without saying a word more to their students, very seldom b
39、eing detained by questioners. The classes were not large, yet there was no discussion. No questions were raised in class, and there were no office hours.26.The author believes that a successful teacher should be able to _.A) make dramatization an important aspect of students learningB) make inspired
40、 play an integral part of the learning processC) improve students learning performanceD) make study just as easy as playB27.The majority of university professors prefer the traditional way of lecturing in the belief that _.A) it draws the close attention of the studentsB) it conforms in a way to the
41、 design of the CreatorC) it presents course content in a scientific and objective mannerD) it helps students to comprehend abstract theories more easilyC28.What the author recommends in this passage is that _.A) college education should be improved through radical measuresB) more freedom of choice s
42、hould be given to students in their studiesC) traditional college lectures should be replaced by dramatized performancesD) interaction should be encouraged in the process of teachingD29.By saying “They seemed a priesthood, rather uneven in their merits but uniform in their bearing. (Lines 3-4, Para.
43、 4), the author means that _.A) professors are a group of professionals that differ in their academic ability but behave in the same wayB) professors are like priests wearing the same kind of black gown but having different roles to playC) there is no fundamental difference between professors and pr
44、iests though they differ in their meritsD) professors at the University of Pennsylvania used to wear black suits which made them look like priestsA30.Whose teaching method is particularly commended by the author?A) Ezekiel Cheevers.B) Cotton Mathers.C) Alfred North Whiteheads.D) Patricia Nelson Lime
45、ricks.APassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Take the case of public education alone. The principal difficulty faced by the schools has been the tremendous increase in the number of pupils. This has been caused by the advance of the legal age for going into industry and
46、the impossibility of finding a job even when the legal age has been reached. In view of the technological improvements in the last few years, business will require in the future proportionately fewer workers than ever before. The result will be still further raising of he legal age for going into em
47、ployment, and still further difficulty in finding employment when hat age has been attained. If we cannot put our children to work, we must put them in school.We may also be quite confident that the present trend toward a shorter day and a shorter week will be maintained. We have developed and shall
48、 continue to have a new leisure class. Already the public agencies for adult education are swamped by the tide that has swept over them since depression began. They will be little better off when it is over. Their support must come from the taxpayer.It is surely too much to hope that these increases
