3 Computers李仕才【阅读理解插花】I am a writer. I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language—the way it can evoke(唤起)an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth. Language is the tool of my trade. And I use them all—all the English I grew up with.Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California, I’ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as “broken” English. But I feel embarrassed to s ay that. It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than “broken”, as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness. I’ve heard other terms used, “limited English”, for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people’s perceptions(认识)of the limited English speaker.I know this for a fact, because when I was growing up, my mother’s “limited” English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say. That is, because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fact that people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I won’t get into today, I began to write stories using all the English I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for lack of a better term might be described as“broken”, and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal(内在的)language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese structure. I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show: her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts. 【文章大意】本文主要记叙了作者在不同时期对母亲所使用的语言的不同看法。

When it's five o'clock，people leave their office.The length of the workday，for many workers，is defined by time.They leave when the clock tells them they're done.These days，the time is everywhere：not just on clocks or watches，but on cellphones and computers.That may be a bad thing，particularly at work.New research shows that clock-based work schedules hinder morale(士气)and creativity.Clock-timers organize their day by blocks of minutes and hours.For example：a meeting from 9 a．m.to 10 a．m.，research from 10 a．m.to noon，etc.On the other hand，task-timers have a list of things they want to accomplish.They work down the list；each task starts when the previous task is completed.It is said that all of us employ a mix of both these types of planning.What，then，are the effects of thinking about time in these different ways？Does one make us more productive？Better at the tasks at hand？Happier? In experiments conducted by Tamar Avnet and Anne-Laure Sellier，they had participants organize different activities—from project planning，holiday shopping，to yoga—by time or to-do list to measure how they performed under “clock time” vs.“task time”．They found clock-timers to be more efficient but less happy because they felt little control over their lives.Task-timers are happier and more creative，but less productive.They tend to enjoy the moment when something good is happening，and seize opportunities that come up.The researchers argue that task-based organizing tends to be undervalued and under-supported in business culture.Smart companies，they believe，will try to bake more task-based planning into their strategies.This might be a small change to the way we view work and the office，but the researchers argue that it challenges a widespread characteristic of the economy：work organized by clock time.While most people will still probably need，and be，to someextent，clock-timers，task-based timing should be used when they are performing a job that requires more creativity.It'll make those tasks easier，and the task-doers will be happier.1．What is the way people often do their work according to the author?A．They give priority to the most urgent task on hand.B．They set a time limit for each specific task.C．They combine clock-based and task-based planning.D．They accomplish their tasks one by one.2．What did the researchers find in their experiments on clock-timers?A．They tend to be more productive.B．They seize opportunities as they come up.C．They always get their work done in time.D．They have more control over their lives.3．What is the researchers' opinion about today's business culture?A．It does not support the strategies adopted by smart companies.B．It attaches more importance to work efficiency than to workers' lives.C．It aims to bring employees' potential and creativity into full play.D．It does not lay enough emphasis on task-based practice.4．From the passage，we can conclude that ________.A．it is important to keep a balance between work and lifeB．task-based timing is preferred for doing creative workC．performing creative jobs tends to make workers happierD．a scientific standard should be adopted in job evaluation【解题导语】本文是一篇对时钟型和任务型两种工作方式的研究报告。

Unit 3 Computers李仕才一、阅读理解Professional courses, such as Masters in International Business or MIB, have been taken by many students in the last two decades. They are choosing new-agenon-conventional courses that guarantee a better future. MIB is a specialized course that teaches the international business.

Acquiring a degree of MIB offers outstanding growth of job opportunities. Those who want to pursue in the field of marketing also have a good future after completing the degree from a reputed MIB college. Big multinational organizations look for talented people who can handle the job profile of International Marketing Manage, and people with MIB degrees are preferred. The profile needs an in-depth understanding of the overseas markets, because it is the strategic post from the perspective of company’s international business growth.

Typically, organizations offer the profile of international finance controllers to those who complete MIB with the specialization of finance. The specialization covers aspects of international taxes, accounts, budgeting and so on. People in this field are well-paid, and growth prospects are unlimited. After completing degree course from a reputed MIB college, there is a good scope in the banking and finance sector as well.

Many are playing online games too much.A few even visit Web sites they should not look at. A middle school teacher from Beijing warns that bad things can happen if young people spend too much time on the Internet. She had a student who used to be good at school. But then he started visiting sex Web sites. He went mad, cheated a girl and was taken away by the police.In order to help young people use the Internet in a good way, a textbook on good Internet behavior has started to be used in some Shanghai middle schools this term. The book uses real examples to teach students all about good ways of using the Internet. The book gives useful advice such as it's good to read news or find helpful information to study.Some students also make online friends. But if you are meeting a friend offline, make sure your parents know. Teachers and parents all think the book is a very good idea. This teacher said the book will be a guide for teens using the Internet. She believes it will keep students away from bad sites. “Many students are using the Internet without guidance from their parent s,” she said. “The book will teach students how to be a good person in the onli ne world.”36. The third paragraph mainly tells us that ________.A. some students are not using the Internet correctlyB. all students in Beijing use the Internet to help their school workC. a teacher in Beijing is worried about her studentsD. some students visit sex Web sites37.

From this passage we know that ________.A. more and more students have given up visiting bad Web sitesB. schools and teacher begin to pay attention to students’ use of the InternetC. no more homework will be given in ShanghaiD. less and less information can be found on lineBOn October 12, 1987, some Chinese scientists were working at the computers to look for information they needed. Suddenly they saw a lot of very brightspots(点)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(恐惧), they found out that most of their stored information was got rid of( 除掉) by computer viruses! Obviously all these computers had been infected（感染） by computer viruses.It is said that the computer viruses were made by a group of young man fond of playing tricks. They all had excellent education. They created the viruses just to show their intelligence.（才智）These kinds of computer viruses are named Jerusalem( 耶路撒冷 )Viruses. These viruses can stay in computers for a long time. When the time comes they will attack the computers by lowering the function(功能), damaging their normal programs or even getting rid of all the information.We now come to know that Jerusalem Viruses often attack computers on Fridays and that they are spreading(传播) to a list of computers. Among the countries that suffering computer viruses are Britain, Australia, Switzerland and the U.S. But till now, how to get rid of the terrible remains a problem.40. The group of young men created the viruses to __________.A. damage the computersB. test their abilityC. tell the world that they were intelligentD. play a trick on operators of the computers41.

The Jerusalem Viruses are a great harm to human health.CPeople often s ay, “Even without stepping out of my house I know all that has been happening in the world.”I think that is quite true, especially in modern times.We get all kinds of news from newspaper and TV and the Internet. This helps us to understand the developing world, without having to go to the places where events are really taking place.Newspapers not only carry news but also teach us many useful things, such as first aid, cooking, playing games and chess, how to take good photographs and enrich us with common sense.More and more people enjoy watching TV or going to Internet school everyday. Net school is very useful in many ways. First of all, it can make teaching and learning much easier with great interest. Students can get more information and knowledge in class. We can send E-mails to all parts of the world at any time, and get the latest information through the Internet.Reading a newspaper or watching TV or going to net school can widen our viewof knowledge.

Unit 3 Computers一、阅读理解The wedding tradition of“something old，something new，something borrowed and something blue”has been around for hundreds of years.The tradition of carrying or wearing one of each item is said to bring luck and fortune to the newly married couple.Have you ever stopped to think what the saying really means？What is its origin and what does each item represent?The original saying dates back to the Victoria times and states，“something old，something new，something borrowed，something blue and a silver sixpence in your shoe.”Something old A bride may wear or carry something old to represent her continued ties to her family and her old life.Many brides wear a piece of family jewelry as their old item.Some brides wear the wedding dress worn by their mother or grandmother.In many cases，something old may also be something borrowed.Something new Wearing something new is supposed to represent success and hope in the bride's new life and in her marriage.If the bride purchases her wedding dress，it may represent her new item，but any item that is new may be used.Something“new” is usually the easiest kind to fill.Something borrowed The borrowed item should be something borrowed from a friend that is happily married.It is said that their happiness will rub off on you and bring lasting happiness to your marriage.Some brides borrow an item of clothing，a piece of jewelry，a handkerchief or perhaps a beaded(饰以珠子的)purse.Something blue Wearing something blue dates back to ancient times when a blue wedding dress was worn to represent purity，fidelity and love.A silver sixpence Placing a silver sixpence in the bride's left shoe is said to be a symbol of wealth.This not only refers to financial wealth，but also a wealth of happiness and joy throughout her married life.Since most brides probably don't even know what a sixpence is，this part of the tradition is not used very often in modern times.However，if a bride would like to include it in her wedding，she can purchase a silver sixpence from many companies that sell bridal supplies such as garters (袜带)and invitations.1．Why does the first paragraph end with two questions?A．To invite readers to answer them at once.B．To show the importance of this tradition.C．To have readers' interest and attention.D．To test readers' knowledge about wedding.2．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Something old might also be something borrowed actually.B．The part of the tradition“a silver sixpence”is never used now.C．The borrowed item can be something borrowed from any friend.D．Something new is usually the most difficult and expensive kind to fill.3．What can we infer from the passage?A．No brides now are not familiar with the silver sixpence.B．Every item represents something good for the new couple.C．The bride will be more beautiful with all these five items.D．Of the five items，something blue is the most important one.4．Which word can replace the underlined word“fidelity” in the sixth paragraph?A．Success. B．Wealth.C．Loyalty. D．Opportunity.【解题导语】本文是一篇总分结构的说明文，介绍了西方一种传统的婚礼习俗的起源和含义。

Unit 3 Computers李仕才一、阅读理解Mahendra, a former senior officer at the State Bank of India, talks about his disabled and wounded dogs like a father about his children—with the same love, affection, and warmth. He's a well­known animal rights activist, the secretary at People for Animals (PFA). But nothing explains Mahendra better than his love for animals. It was this love that led him to establish India's first shelter home for dogs living with disabilities.It all started in 1998 when, while taking a midnight walk, Mahendra came across a very weak dog on the street, whose bones were seen under its skin. Mahendra decided to feed it and for the next couple of days it became the centre of his life, until the night when he found it dead. Since then, Mahendra started providing treatment to all wounded and sick dogs he came across. After some time, somebody told Mahendra about PFA, India's largest animal welfare organization, chaired by Mrs Maneka Gandhi. Mahendra contacted her and, impressed by the work he was doing, Mrs Gandhi asked him to start a PFA chapter in Ahmedabad.Thus, in 2014, he started the shelter. It took a long time for Mahendra to find land where the shelter could be set up. Finally, Ramesh Bhai Patel, a farmer from a village named Jundal, agreed to give his land for nothing. Along with a team of four doctors and many volunteers, the shelter now has twenty­five dogs that were unable to walk at all when they were brought in. Today, they're slowly healing.Dogs that have healed with proper treatment are sent back to where they came from if the environment there is safe. However, the shelter will be home to the blind dogs for all their lives, says Mahendra.The shelter runs on the money coming from Mahendra's own pocket. There have been some financial crunches now and then but Mahendra is determined that no matter what challenges come their way, they'll fight through.1.From Paragraph 1, what can we know about Mahendra?A.His affection for animals.B.His love for senior people.C.His care for disabled people.D.His devotion to protecting his children.2.Mahendra decided to do something for animals because of ________.A.the death of a homeless sick dogB.his meeting with a sick dog one nightC.the encouragement of Mrs GandhiD.his contact with the organization PFA3.In his effort to build the shelter, Mahendra ________.A.spent much money hiring a landB.received little support from othersC.got a free land from a farmerD.was financially supported by the government4.What does the underlined word “crunches” in the last paragraph mean?A.Aids.B.Markets.C.Services.D.Difficulties.参考答案：1.A; 2.A; 3.C; 4.D解析：1.[细节题。
