AI clearly remember my mom telling me to drink milk every day—one glass in the morning and another at night.I also remember loving it while my sister thought quite the opposite—she would surreptitiously pour her milk into the sink or water the plants with it! I guess I should thank my mom for making us drink a lot of milk, so rich in calcium(钙), during those important years.Today, calcium shortage is one of the main concerns of women in their 30s or even early 20s.The great fear is that when we reach our 50s or 60s, osteoprosis(骨质疏松症)will set in.That is why you can see a lot of advertisements for products supposedly containing a lot of calcium.Because calcium is not that easy to acquire from the food we normally eat, busy women these days should take calcium supplements(补充物).There are a lot of different forms of these---calcium carbonate(碳酸钙),oyster(牡蛎)shell or bone-meal-based calcium supplements.You have to be careful when choosing which kind to take.This is because calcium is not easily absorbed by the body.So the fact that you are taking supplements doesn’t mean that the body is actually benefiting from them.Different supplements may have different instructions on dosage(剂量)and manner of intake.You can ask your doctor to help you determine which supplement is the best for your needs.21. From what the author’s mother did we may inferthat___________________.A.her children had osteoporosisB.she knew her children would benefit from milkC.she must have suffered from osteoprosisD.she didn’t like her daughter who didn’t obey her order22. Based on the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A.The author’s sister will suffer from osteoprosis when reaches her 50s or 60sB.Many businessmen have already been selling products supposedly containing calcium.C.We can’t get enough calcium only from food we eat every day D.Women as young as their 20s should be concerned about calcium shortage23. What does the underlined word “surreptitiously”in the firstparagraph probably mean?A.Honestly B.Frankly C.Secretly D.Curiously24. We may infer from the last paragraphthat____________________.A.what one chooses as a calcium supplement might not workB.one shouldn’t take in calcium without the permission of a doctor C.the more calcium supplements one uses, the more calcium one can take inD.it is dangerous to use calcium supplements without the guidanceBPeople living in the UK take quite a few holidays abroad and in the country each year. Choices made about where to go, how to get there and what to do can either benefit or harm the environment.While on holidayMany of the things you can do to the greener on holiday will be the same things you can do at home—but there are also some extra things too, like avoiding gifts made from endangered plants and animals. Here are some suggestions:●Making the most of locally produced fo od and drink, and local activities and attractions will support people in the area you arevisiting and reduce the need for further environmental influence from transport.●Switching off any air conditioning, heating and lights will help reduce climate change effect.●Save water—some countries suffer from water shortages and saving water can help avoid damage to our natural habitats. Endangered speciesSome gifts and foods available in some countries can be made from endangered plants or animals. Check before you buy, but if you doubt, avoid animal and plant gifts. More details of the types of products to avoid any illegal trade hotspots can be found on the Souvenir Alert webpage.Making a positive contribution to the place you are visiting.There are ways in which your holiday can help support local people and the environment.●There are many opportunities to volunteer and help with projects that conserve and improve natural habitats.●When you are away, or if you are looking for somewhere tovisit, you can support projects or attractions which protect wildlife, such as nature reserves and conservation projects.25. According to the passage, we can _______ to help reduce climate change effect.A. make good use of waterB. buy local food and drinkC. save electricityD. go around on foot26. We should check the gifts and foods before buying because______.A. sometimes they are of poor qualityB. they may not be typical local productsC. some of them will do harm to our healthD. they may be made from endangered animals or plants27We can infer from the passage that ______.A. it is not easy for people to travel abroadB. not everyone can tell an illegal souvenirC. green holidays have been accepted by peopleD. volunteer work is a must for protecting natural habitats28. The passage is mainly about ______.A. travel enjoymentB. the harm to the environmentC. protection of endangered animalsD. greener choices for holidayCIt’s said that professional footballers in the USA can make millions of dollars throughout their careers. Yet statistics show that many eventually run out of money once their playing days are over. The University of Pennsylvania wants to change that andhelpteach American footballers how to rebuild their lives when their sports careers come to an end.“All their life they have focused on football. Deciding what comes next can be difficult.”Says professor Morvarid Taheripour, the head of the athletes’project. “Some people say athletes die two deaths. You kind of die when you stop playing and you die in real life. So they’ve got to come back to life and figure out ‘How am I going to make a living at 25 for maybe another 40 years?”For Taheripour, the partnership with professional athletes is a dream to come true. “It was taking everythin g I love about teaching and yet being able to influence people who are accomplished and hard-working, yet very modest.”But even with help, figuring out the next chapter isn’t easy. Statistics show that 78 percent of professional football players are penniless, divorced or unemployed two years after retiring from their sport. The program tries to help players develop a plan for life after sport and 220 athletes have taken part over the past six years. Darwin Walker is one former student who avoided being a statistic. Today, he runs a number of successful businesses and thanks football for his accomplishments. “The concepts I learned about leadership have all come from playing the game of football,”says Walker. “The amount of study, amount of commitment, and timethat you have to put into it is very much like being a successful business person.”Shifting the skills learned on the field to the workplace seems natural to some, but the numbers show that’s not the case for everyone. Taheripour’s message to his stu dents is a serious one:This is the time to build for the future, he tells them, because no matter how long your athletic career lasts, you are so much more than just an athlete.29 By saying “athletes die two deaths”, the author means ________.A. athletes suffer too many failures in their lifeB. athletes have a sports life and a real lifeC. being an athlete contributes little to lifeD. athletes’later life can be easily rebuilt30. .Why is it difficult for professional athletes to decide what comes next?A. They might have not thought of this during their playing days.B. They have no idea whether to leave the game or not.C. They think as athletes they can make more money.D. They’re not willing to accept a new career.31. What does Darwin Walker manage to avoid?A. Making his sports career come to an end.B. Being unsuccessful in rebuilding his life.C. Going through the problem.D. Making a difference.32. What does the last paragraph imply?A. An athlete should think about more than his athletic career.B. An athlete’s sports career couldn’t last very long.C. An athlete should end his career earlier to build his new life.D. The longer an athlete’s career lasts, the more respect he receives.DDuring World War I, a German spy called Reginald Rowlandworked in the United Kingdom gathering information for Germany about the British army. A box of talcum powder (爽身粉) and other lotions (护肤液)with materials to write secret messages were found in his room when he was caught by British soldiers. He also used invisible (看不见的) ink on shirt collars, in pens, and mixed with cakes of soap to send secret messages.So, if you want to send secret messages, you will need:lemon,a bowl,a thin paintbrush or toothpick,white paper,a hairdryer or light bulbDirections:1. Cut the lemon in half, squeeze (挤) the juice into a bowl, and remove any pulp (果肉).2. Dip the paintbrush or toothpick into the lemon juice.3. Write your message or draw your map on the white paper, working quickly so that you can see what you have written before the lemon juice dries.4. When the juice dries, your message will not be seen. Protect it by writing a normal message in pencil on the other side.5. To reveal the secret message, hold the paper in front of a warm hairdryer or light bulb.33. According to the text, Reginald Rowland _____.A. hated the warB. was from the UKC. worked for GermanyD. was good at making up stories34. Which of the following best describes the step 2 of the directions?35. In sending secret messages, the hairdryer is used to _____.A. show the secret messageB. remove the lemon pulpC. squeeze the juiceD. dry the juice第二节:(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

高二下学期英语期末考试试题(附答案)一、阅读理解(共15小题,每小题2分,共30分)(共4题;共30分)1.阅读理解On 29 May last year, I was doing my swim training for a half Ironman race in the bay near my home.I was finishing my first loop (圈) when I felt jaws coming around my body and a sharp pain. The water was dark, so I couldn't see anything. It just came out of nowhere and then it was gone in a flash. I knew it was something really big and assumed it was a shark. I panicked, but knew I needed to get out of the water. I was kicking wildly in case it came back. There was a lifeguard boat close by, so I waved my arms in the air and screamed for help. It got to me within 20 seconds. At that point I didn't feel anything; adrenaline (肾上腺素) had taken over. The lifeguards held me under the arms and pulled me up out of the water. Then the pain kicked in and it was pretty hard to bear. Some muscle had been bitten off my right arm. I felt a lot of warm, gushing blood.My chest felt heavy, as if someone had put their foot on it, and I was having trouble breathing. It was extremely painful. When I got to the hospital, I told the nurses to put me to sleep because of the pain. I just wanted them to fix me.I woke up after surgery four hours later. My doctor was amazed when I managed to move my fingers: the bite just missed a major nerve. My right lung had been damaged; I had several broken bones and a nerve in my leg was cut, so I have reduced feeling at the top of my leg. The shark also bit through my upper back muscle.Local experts determined that the shark was probably 9-10 feet long. It was young, about seven years old. It just attacked me, left and didn't come back because it figured I wasn't food.根据短文内容,选择最佳答案,并将选定答案的字母标号填在题前括号内。

"Why not let me shower first," she asked. "I was tired, sweetie, you take it later, OK?"

You maywonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less usable fresh water . A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater . Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It come from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave ,the less water canflow into the ground to become groundwater .Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺). Driver climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs .Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference too. In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day ! This shows how much we depend on water to live, but there’s a lot we can do to lower the number .You can take steps to save water in your home .To start with ,use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher (洗碗机)only when it is full .Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away .28. Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater ?A. Using river water .B .Throwing batteries away .C. paving parking lots .D. Throwing rubbish into lakes .29. What can be inferred from the text ?A. All water shortages are due to human behavior .B. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs .C. There is much we can do to reduce family size .D. The average family in America makes proper use of water .30. The last paragraph is intended to .A. show us how to fix leaks at homeB. tell us how to run a dishwasherC. prove what drinking glass is best for usD. suggest what we do to save water at home31. The text is mainly about .A. Why paving roads reduces our waterB. how much we depend on water to liveC. why droughts occur more in dry climatesD. how human activity affects our water supplyDAfter a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep!32. A good title for this passage is ____.A. SleepB. Good HealthC. DreamsD. Work and Rest33. The underlined word “drowsy” in the last paragraph most probably means ____.A. sickB. stand upC. HealthyD. a little sleepy34. During REM, ____.A. your eyes move quicklyB. you dreamC. you are restlessD. both A and B35. The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is ______ .A. approximately six hoursB. around ten hoursC. about eight hoursD. not stated here第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

But what about our sense of hearing? Does sound also affect our dining experience?A new report answers, “yes, it does.”That answer comes from researchers at Brigham Young University and Colorado State University in the United States. They found that hearing is important in the eating experience.Hearing is often calle d “the forgotten food sense”, says Ryan Elder. Elder is an assistant professor of marketing at Brigham Young University’s Marriott School of Management. He says that if people notice the sound the food makes as they eat it, they might eat less. On the other hand, watching loud television or listening to loud music while eating can hide such noises. And this could lead to overeating.For the study, the researchers wanted to test whether the sounds of eating—chewing, chomping and crunching—had any effect on how much a person ate. During the experiments, the test subjects wore headphones and listened to noise at either a high or low audio level. Then researchers gave them a crunchy snack: pretzels. The study found that subjects who listened to the higher volume noise ate more pretzels than those with the low audio levels.Elder says that when hiding I heard sounds of eating, like when you watch television or listen to loud music while eating, we take away the sense of hearing. And this may cause you to eat more than you would normally. The researchers are calling this, the “crunch effect”.The researchers admit that the effects may not seem like much at one meal. But over a week, a month or a year, all that food can really add up.【1】Which sense is often ignored in the eating experience?A.Sight.B.Smell.C.Hearing.D.Touch.【2】Who would find this article helpful?A.People who enjoys cooking food.B.People who cares about losing weight.C.People who like watching TV.D.People who want to eat healthy food.【3】Why the researchers use “pretzels”?A.They can make loud noise.B.They are delicious.C.They are more available D.They are good for health.【4】Which can be the best title for the passage?A.Be Mindful of Whatever You EatB.Be Sensitive to Your Eating habitsC.Want to Lose Weight? Listen to yourself EatD.Better Hear Than Eat3.Whenever we turn on the TV or radio, read the newspapers, or surf the Internet, we’ll be surrounded by the wor d “diet” everywhere. We have so easily been attracted by the promise of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.It’s obvious that diet pro ducts weaken us psychologically. They allow us to jump over the thinking stage that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fat. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food l abels.What’s more, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.As a matter of fact, the danger that diet products bring not only lies in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm they cause. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calories only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. And they can indirectly harm our bodies because taking them instead of healthy foods means we are stopping our bodies having basic nutrients. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemicals that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Think twice before buying diet products. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, therefore, prevent the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them.【1】What does “gain comes without pain” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Losing weight is effortless.B.It costs a lot to lose weightC.Diet products are free of fat.D.Diet products cause no pain.【2】What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A.Diet products are cheap and healthy.B.People enjoy paying for diet products.C.Diet products are misleading people.D.People are surrounded by “diet”.【3】Which is true about “psychological effect of diet products”?A.People would hesitate before they enjoy diet foods.B.People would pay more attention to their daily diet.C.People would care about results instead of efforts.D.People would try out varieties of diet products.【4】Why would diet products indirectly harm people physically?A.Because they are over-consumed.B.Because they lack chemicals.C.Because they provide too much fat.D.Because they lack basic nutrients.4.You may have heard of the American Dream, an ideal that has powered the hopes of Americans for generations.It began as a belief that the US was a land of opportunity, and that anyone could achieve success through hard work. The dream has referred to home ownership, a good job, retirement security or each generation doing better than the last for a long time.Yet today, this concept seems to have greatly changed. As Tune magazine pointed out, quite different from the older generation, many Millennials (the generation born after 1980) redefine the American Dream as “day-to-day control of your life”. They “prize job mobility, flexible schedules, any work that is more interesting than typing, and the ability to travel”, said the magazine.Home ownership, once the cornerstone of the American Dream, is becoming a smaller priority for this generation. Meanwhile, nearly 40% of them choose travel as part of their dream. And running their own business is a rising favorite, as nearly 26% of Millennials consider self-employment as part of their dream.So what has led to this huge change?Many point fingers at the poor economy. “Modern young Americans seem bound to face a world stamped byever narrowing opportunity,” noted The Daily Beast.“The rate of 16-to-24-year-olds out of school and out of work is unusually high at 15%. Many college graduates have taken jobs that don’t require a degree,” Time reported.The magazine worries that these difficulties may lead to a lost generation who are “unable to ever truly find their feet on the corporation’s ladder”.Dan Kadlec, a reporter of Time, sees Millennials as resetting their expectations. “This situation is different for young adults today,” he wrote. “A true American dream has to feel attainable, and many Millennials are feeling they can only attain a day-to-day lifestyle that suits them.”【1】Which has similar meaning to the underlined word “cornerstone”?A.value B.averageC.reason D.basis【2】What has changed Millennials’ views of the American Dream?A.The discouraging economy and unemployment.B.The fierce competition in getting a degree.C.Their dissatisfaction with the government.D.Their lack of confidence in themselves.【3】What does Dan Kadlec’s think of Millennials’ definition of the American Dream?A.considerate B.understandableC.curious D.negative【4】What can be the best title for this passage?A.Meaning of American Dream B.Redefinition of American DreamC.Value of Achieving American Dream D.The Reasons of American Dream二、其他You may have grown up living with sisters and brothers, or this may be your first time sharing your living space with someone else. Having a roommate surely has its challenges. 【1】 Follow these tips to make sure you and your roommate keep things pleasant and supportive throughout the year.Be clear from the beginning.Maybe you hate it when someone interrupts you when you are sleeping every morning.【2】, Let your roommate know abo ut your preferences.

Panic moment! She quickly picked up the wet phone and tried to turn it on, but nothing worked. Her first reaction? She got dressed, drove to the nearest store, and bought a new model at full price.A new study finds that fear of losing your phone is a common illness. About 66 percent of those surveyed suffer from nomophobia or “no mobile phone phobia”. Interestingly, more women worry about losing their phone than men.Fortunately, there’s a solution.The first step is to figure out if you have nomophobia. Checking your phone too often is one thing, but the true sign of a problem is that you can’t conduct business or go about your routine when the fear becomes so sever e. Do you go to unusual lengths to make sure you have your phone? That’s another sign of a problem. If you find you check your phone plenty of times per hour, or a total of an hour per day, there may be a problem.Some of the treatments are similar to those for treating anxiety attacks: Leaving the phone behind and not checking e-mail or text messages, and then learning to tolerate the after anxiety. Even if this leads to a high level of worry and stress, the solution is to push through the fear and learn to deal with not having your phone.Of course, there are also technological alternatives. Luis Levy, a co-founder at Novy PR, says he uses an application called Cerberus that can automatically track the location of his phone. To find it, he can just go to a Web site and see the phone’s location.He also insures his phone through a service called Asurion. The company’s description of its product reads like a prescription for anxiety: “60 million phones are lost, stolen or damaged each year. You’ll have comple te peace of mind knowing that your phone is protected and you can quickly reconnect with family, friends and work, as soon as the very next day!”【1】Why does the author mention Kelly’s experience in the first paragraph?A.To inform us that mobile phones are useful.B.To introduce the topic for discussion.C.To tell us we should get phones ready for a trip.D.To warn us that we should be careful.【2】The underlined word “nomophobia” in Paragraph 2 means ________.A.Fear of losing mobile phones.B.Habits of using mobile phonesC.Independence of mobile phones.D.Eagerness for new mobile phones.【3】Which of the following is a way to treat nomophobia?A.Learning more about modern technology.B.Avoiding using phone for some timeC.Not using a mobile phone in one’s daily work.D.Protecting one’s phone against any damage.【4】Why can the service called Asurion help to treat nomophobia?A.It will give you a new phone through insurance.B.It lets you know other people also lose their phones.C.It gives you a prescription to treat nomophobia.D.It enables you to reconnect with your acquaintance.【5】What is the passage mainly about?A.New mobile phone technology.B.Attitude toward mobile phone.C.Solutions to nomophobiaD.Disadvantages of mobile phone2.【1】In what section of a newspaper will you probably read the advertisements?A.Geography B.Education C.History D.Environment 【2】What do Science Museum Oklahoma and Leonardo’s Discovery Warehouse have in common? A.Aiming at scienceB.Introducing animalsC.Offering imaginary rolesD.Enjoying a trip to the universe【3】Emma has a tight schedule and has to work from 10am-5pm every day. If she wants to visit a museum, which website will she probably login to get more information?A./B./C./D./【4】Which of the following can be learned from the advertisements?A.Visitors can enjoy family fun in all the museums except the Museum of the Great Plains.B.Visitors can experience something related to culture in the Tulsa Air and Space Museum.C.Visitors can phone (405) 382-0950 if their children want to enjoy role-playing programs.D.Visitors can explore an adventure of outer space in 601 NW Ferris Ave Lawton, OK.【5】What may be the purpose of the writer writing the passage?A.To show his knowledge of museumsB.To provide some information on museumsC.To attract attention from the readersD.To entertain readers3.With the Tesla Roadster and other plug-in (插入式) electric vehicles hitting the road,demand is growing for accessible refueling points to recharge them. Carbon Day Automotive, a Chicago-based company,has now demonstrated a solar-powered recharging point, known as the Solar Plug-In Station,which lets motorists easily charge their cars using electricity that has been produced without any environmental damage.The Solar PlugIn Station has gone on show in Chicago as part of the city’s bid to host the 2016 Olympic Games. According to Carbon Day Automotive,the Solar Plug-In Station on show in Chicago is part of the vital infrastructure(基础设施) required for electric vehicles in Chicago and was the focus of a recent visit by the International Olympic Committee.These solar-powered electricity points will be used da ily to fuel the city’s electric vehicles with power from the sun. By producing the electricity from pollution-free solar cell, the CO2 emissions are reduced to zero.“Solar energy and electric vehicles are a partnership that is one more step to reducing ou r dependence on foreign oil,” says Richard Lowenthal, CEO of Coulomb Technologies.Coulomb Technologies recently developed the components (部件) required for individual recharging stations,marketed as ChargePoint Networked Charging Stations.Carbon Day Automotive is the Midwest distributor for the ChargePoint stations. The SolarPlug-In Station consists of giant solar panels (电池板) that shade the tiny ChargePoint Networked Charging Station.The solar panel is connected to an underground battery pack,ready for everyday refueling.“Without these stations it would be like driving around in a traditional car without the availability of gas stations,” says Scott Emalfarb,CEO at Carbon Day.“The day of true plugin electric vehicles will be here sooner thanmost people r ealize and the world needs to be ready to accommodate them.”【1】The Solar Plug-In Station is used as part of the bid to host the Olympics mainly because ________.A.it’s environmentally friendlyB.it makes up for the lack of electricityC.it’s a new idea and attracts people’s attentionD.it brings convenience to electric vehicle users【2】We can learn from the passage that ________.A.to recharge the electric vehicles takes a long timeB.the Solar Plug-In Station will come into use in 2016C.the Solar Plug-In Station has gone on show internationallyD.Chicago is promoting the use of electric vehicles【3】According to the passage,how many of the following statements are TRUE?a. Tesla Roadster is a kind of plug-in electric vehicle.b. The Solar Plug-In Station uses solar power to charge all of the cars.c. Chicago is a city,which is rich in oil.d. The Solar Plug-In Station consists of underground battery packs.e. Scott Emalfarb is optimistic about the future of plug-in electric vehicles.A.2.B.3.C.4.D.5.【4】The passage implies that when the Solar Plug-In Station becomes popular,________.A.more visitors will come to ChicagoB.the citizens of Chicago will be able to go to work fasterC.more space for electric vehicles will be neededD.the cost of electric vehicles will be lower than traditional cars【5】What would be the best title for the passage?A.Chicago Will Soon Be Full of Electric VehiclesB.Chicago Calls on People to Buy Electric VehiclesC.Chicago Fights for Its Bid to Host the 2016 OlympicsD.Chicago Shows Its Solar-powered Recharging Stations4.They may be just passing your office, computer bag slung (悬挂) over one shoulder. Or they may be sitting in a car outside it, causally tapping away at a laptop. They look like innocent passers-by. In fact, they are stealing your corporate secrets.Drive-by hacking is the trendy term given to the practice of breaking into wireless computer networks from outside the buildings that house them. A recent study in the UK, sponsored by RSA Data Security, found thattwo-thirds of organizations with wireless networks were risking their data in this way. Security experts patrolled (巡逻) several streets in the City of London seeking evidence of wireless networks in operation.Of 124 that they identified, 83 were sending data without encrypting(加密)them. Such data could readily be picked up by a passer-by armed only with a portable computer, a wireless modem and a few pieces of software that can be freely downloaded from the Internet.The data could include sensitive company documents containing valuable information. Or they could be e-mail identities and passwords that could be used by hackers to log into corporate networks as if they were legal users. Most companies using wireless networking technology do not take even the simplest of measures to protect their data. Nearly all wireless network technology comes with some basic security features that need only to be activated (激活) in order to give a minimum level of security, for example, by encrypting the data being passed over the network.Raymon Kruck, business development manager at Check Point Software, a security technology specialist, believes this could be partly a psychological problem. People see the solid walls of their building as safeguards and forget that wireless networks can extend up to 200 meters beyond physical walls.Companies without any security at all on their wireless networks make it ridiculously easy for hackers to break in. Switching on the security that comes with the network technology should be automatic. Then there are other basic steps a company can take, says Mr. Kruck, such as changing the passwords on the network from the default (默认) setting.Companies can also install firewalls, which form a barrier between the internal network and the public Internet. They should also check their computer records regularly to spot any abnormal activity, which might betray the presence of a hacker.【1】According to the study sponsored by RSA Data Security, two thirds of the subjects _______.A.had most of their company data stolenB.depended on wireless computer networksC.were exposed to drive-by hackingD.were unaware of the risk of wireless hacking【2】Which of the following is NOT considered in the study?A.The number of computer hacking incidents.B.The number of wireless computer networks identified.C.The way in which data are sent and received.D.The way in which data are hacked and stolen.【3】Most wireless network technology has_________.A.data encryption programB.password security programsC.illegal-user detectionD.firewall【4】Raymond Kruck most probably agrees that wireless network security involves ________.A.wireless signal administrationB.changes in user’s awarenessC.users’ psychological healthD.stronger physical walls【5】The passage is most likely to be seen in a __________A.book review B.science fiction C.textbook D.computer magazine 5.阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day ! This shows how much we depend on water to live, but there’s a lot we can do to lower the number .You can take steps to save water in your home .To start with ,use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher (洗碗机)only when it is full .Help your parents fix any leaks in your home.

Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply.
