分）Big tobacco is what the bosses of several large technology firms have started calling Facebook Being compared to the tobacco giants is far from praise，but it is not the only widespread analogy（比拟）A lower blow is the suggestion that Facebook may become like Yahoo，the once highflying internet firm that fell Even a year ago the idea would have been unthinkable But since January Facebook has become trapped in a series of misjudgments and missteps It became clear that it had done too little to stop Russian interference（干涉）in Americas election in 2016 It had to admit that it had shared the personal data of 90m users with outside firms without permission The comparison to Yahoo is imperfect Even at its peak Yahoos business was never as large and profitable as Facebooks One of the main reasons Yahoo declined is because it lost out to a powerful competitor，Google，in online search；Marissa Mayer，its boss from 2012 until its sale to Verizon last year，was unable to restore advertisers or employees confidence as users left But people who watched Yahoos falling see similarities Executive（主管）turnover was a leading indicator of its decline；before Ms Mayer was hired Yahoo went through four chief executives in three years Mr Zuckerberg，who controls the majority of Facebooks voting shares，is not leaving，but many top executives are This year several have announced their departures，including Facebooks chief security officer When advertisers faith in Facebook has been shaken，politicians in Washington are running out of patience with the company Lawmakers inspection of the firm is causing it to be more cautious about how it uses data for targeting advertisements and about what information it makes available to outsiders Mr Zuckerberg and Ms Sandberg are under pressure to prove to employees and advertisers that Facebook is not only trustworthy but worthy of their time and money If they cannot do so，and the companys share price continues its slide，it is possible that Ms Sandberg will be replaced in the next year Mr Zuckerberg will doubtless have thoughts about Yahoos sorry tale 1、For Facebook，being compared to big tobacco is Apositive Bambitious Ccreative Dnegative 2、According to the author，what does Facebook currently have in common with the failed Yahoo？ALetting out users data BBeing deep in financial crisis CLeaders are leaving the company DLaying off a large number of employees 3、The author tries to support his judgment about Facebook by Aquestioning its management Busing evidence related to it Canalyzing its financial data Dlisting its advantages and disadvantages 4、What is the main idea of the passage？AFacebook gets trapped in trouble BTwo companies are deep in crisis CHow to save Facebook DFaith is more valuable than gold 23（8 分）The last thing Caitlin Hipp would have expected as she prepared to turn 28 years old was to be living at home with her parents.All shes ever wanted to do is to become an elementary school teacher.And in the meantime,shes been working through her teaching certifications for four years after obtaining an education degree from Bowling Green State University in Ohio,US.Hipp has racked up$100,000 in student loan debt and isnt able to earn enough through working as a part-time skating instructor and restaurant server to live anywhere other than home.The Pew Research Center recently reported that 2014 was a milestone in the evolving living arrangements of young adults in the US.For the first time since 1880,adults aged 18 to 34 became more likely to be living with a parent than to be living on their own.Before 2014,the most common living arrangement for young adults was to be living in their own property as part of a couple.UBS Financial Services,a Swiss global financial services company,released a report that even suggests one reason for the growing number of young adults still living at home could be that their family doesnt want them to leave.The report shows that 74 percent of millennials(千禧一代)get some kind of financial support from their parents after college.It finds that boomers and millennials have redefined the ties that bind parents and children.“Millennials see their parents as peers,friends and mentors.Nearly three quarters talked with their parents more than once a week during college.In return,their parents happily provide financial support well into adulthood,helping fund everything for them.”Stuart Hoffman,chief economist for the PNC Financial Group in the US,said although job growth for millennials since 2014 has improved,which doesnt necessarily mean that millennials are starting to fly the nest.He said,“Theres no doubt it has held back household formation and purchases on things people spend money on related to household formation and perhaps related to child-rearing,”Hoffman explained.“But they are probably traveling more and eating out more if they dont have a house expense or marriage.I dont know if it represents a change in moral values.But its much more common for adult children to live in their parents homes because its becoming part of the culture.”1、Why does Caitlin Hipp have to live at home with her parents?ABecause she cant afford to live on her own.BBecause she doesnt want to live anywhere other than home.CBecause she wants to obtain more degrees.DBecause she wants to be an elementary school teacher.2、What can we learn about young adults aged 18 to 34 before 2014?AThey didnt have the freedom to arrange their living.BThey would rather live with their parents than live by themselves.CThey started to fly the nest as more jobs were provided.DThey preferred to live away from their parents.3、What conclusion can we draw from the report released by the Swiss company?AChildren living with parents is becoming part of the culture.BThe majority of millennials refuse to get financial help from parents.CMost millennials are building closer relationship with their parents.DYoung people tend to live at home towards this trend?4、According to Hoffman,which of the following is true?AIt isnt necessary for millennials to leave the nest.BThey can spend less money on their daily life.CMoral values are changing gradually.DYoung adults are livingin a different life style.24（8 分）As a gesture of friendship，Mayor Yukio Ozaki of Tokyo，Japan gave Washington,DC a
