18、 You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:In the villages of the English countryside there are still people who remember the good old days when no

19、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 programmer, using an automated investigative program of his own called SATAN, shows that the owne

20、rs 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 breaking in. Farmer has made the program publicly available, amid much criticism. A person with e

21、vil 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 done more to alert people to the risks than cause new disorder.So is the Net becoming more s

22、ecure? 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 run on your own machine. These programs could, if their authors wished, do all kinds of nast

23、y 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 information. All these make wonderful tools for antisocial people who want to invade weak sites and

24、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 there currently isnt much to steal. Or because vandalism (恶意破坏) isnt much fun unless you have

25、 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 selling services they want to be paid for.21. By saying “owners of well over half of all Wor

26、ld Wide Web sites have set up home without fitting locks to their doors” (Line 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 aboutC) many sites are not well-protectedD) hackers try out tricks on an Internet site without

27、actually breaking in22. SATAN, a program designed by Dan Farmer, can be used _.A) to investigate the security of Internet sitesB) to improve the security of the Internet systemC) to prevent hackers from breaking into websitesD) to download useful programs and information23. Farmers program has been

28、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 intent24. The authors attitude toward SATAN is _.A) enthusiasticB) criticalC) positiveD) indifferent25. The a

29、uthor 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 securityC) influential businessmen should give priority to the improvement of Net securityD) net in

30、habitants should not let security measures affect their joy of surfing the InternetPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:I came away from my years of teaching on tile college and university level with a conviction that enactment (扮演角色), performance, dramatization are the m

31、ost 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 would seem to the greater part of the academic establishment merely silly, but that is nonethele

32、ss 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 they came to play,” and Alfred North Whitehead, almost three hundred years later, noted that a

33、 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 form of education. There is, I think, much truth in Patricia Nelson Limericks observation th

34、at “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. But to do this regularly, one hour and 15 minutes at a time for one person to drag on whi

35、le 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, believe that they should lecture dully. To show enthusiasm is to risk appearing unscientifi

36、c, 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 cult of writing dully, goes back, of course, some years. Edward Shils, professor of socio

37、logy, 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 personal. Some read from old lecture notes and then haltingly explained the thumb-worn la

38、st 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 being detained by questioners . The classes were not large, yet there was no discussion.

39、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 play an integral part of the learning processC) improve students learning performanc

40、eD) make study just as easy as play27. 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 design of the CreatorC) it presents course content in a scientific and objective man

41、nerD) it helps students to comprehend abstract theories more easily28. What the author recommends in this passage is that _.A) college education should be improved through radical measuresB) more freedom of choice should be given to students in their studiesC) traditional college lectures should be

42、replaced by dramatized performancesD) interaction should be encouraged in the process of teaching29. By saying “They seemed a priesthood, rather uneven in their merits but uniform in their bearing” (Lines 3-4, Para.4), the author means that _.A) professors are a group of professionals that differ in

43、 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 priests though they differ in their meritsD) professors at the University of Pennsylvani

44、a used to wear black suits which made them look like priests30. Whose teaching method is particularly commended by the author?A) Ezekiel Cheevers.B) Alfred North Whiteheads.C) Cotton Mathers.D) Patricia Nelson Limericks.Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Take the case

45、 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 the impossibility of finding a job even when the legal age has been reached. In view of

46、 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 the legal age for going into employment, and still further difficulty in finding employment when that age has been at

47、tained. 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 continue to have a new leisure class. Already the public agencies for adult educatio

48、n are swamped by the tide that has swept over them since the 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 in the cost of public education can be borne by the local communities. They cannot care for the present restricted and inadequate system. The local communities have failed in their efforts to cope with unemployment. T
