Barry Venable said. "Ways we're going about that include blocking public access to the Web sites, because that's the way this worm works, to prevent it from using our networks to propagate (繁殖) itself."The virus exploits a security flaw (缺陷) in certain Microsoft network servers. The flaw was announced last month when a patch was released to fix it."To protect our DoD web sites from being compromised, DoD organizations have been told to review the status of the Internet information servers... to make sure that all the patches that were previously installed had been installed," says Venable.Only a handful of the major Defense Department sites, with the suffix ".mil," appear currently accessible to the public, including the central public affairs site DefenseLink and the military services' main homepages. Public access is blocked to information connected to those sites, and others such as the National Missile Defense site and the US Air Force's European site. Registered Department of Defense personnel continue to have access to the sites, Venable said.71. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. The Code Red Worm.B. DoD Blocks Public Web Site Access.C. DoD Was Attacked.D. Protect DoD Web Sites Against Viruses.72. The word "contracted" (Para.2) most probably means ________.A. make less or smallerB. get an illnessC. make a legal agreementD. formally agree to marry somebody73. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the Code Red worm?A. It can multiply in large numbers.B. It may make a computer system stop working.C. It's included in a patch released by Microsoft.D. It may destroy the connection between legitimate users and the sites.74. Public access is blocked to most DoD web sites so that ________.A. the Code Red worm can't use the web site to replicates itself and send copiesB. DoD organizations can have necessary patches installed to protect their sitesC. the defense secrets can be prevented from being revealedD. the mistake in certain Microsoft network servers can be corrected75. Which of the following is NOT a measure taken by DoD to fight against the Code Red worm?A. Blocking public access.B. Shutting down e-mail.C. Reviewing the status of the Internet information servers.D. Having necessary patches installed.Questions 76 to 80 are based on the same passage or dialog.For an increasing number of students at American universities, old is suddenly in. The reason is obvious: the graying of America means jobs. Coupled with the aging of the baby-boom (生育高峰) generation, a longer life span means that the nation's elderly population is bound to expand significantly over the next 50 years. By 2050, 25 percent of all Americans will be older than 65, up from 14 percent in 1995. The change poses serious questions for government and society, of course. But it also creates career opportunities in medicine and health professions, and in law and business as well. "In addition to the doctors, we're going to need more sociologists, biologists (生物学家), city planners and specialized lawyers," says Professor Edward Schneider of the University of Southern California's (USC) School of Gerontology (老年学).Lawyers can specialize in "elder law", which covers everything from trusts and estates to nursing-home abuse and age discrimination (歧视). Businessmen see huge opportunities in the elder market because the baby boomers, 74 million strong, are likely to be the wealthiest group of retirees in human history. "Any student who combines an expert knowledge in gerontology with, say, an MBA or law degree will have a license to print money," one professor says.Margarite Santos is a 21-year-old senior at USC. She began college as a biology major but found she was "really bored with bacteria". So she took a class in gerontology and discovered that she liked it. She says, "I did volunteer work in retirement homes and it was very satisfying."76. The words "... old is suddenly in" (Para. 1) most probably means "_______".A. America has suddenly become a nation of old peopleB. gerontology has suddenly become popularC. more elderly professors are found on American campusesD. American colleges have realized the need of enrolling older students77. With the aging of America, lawyers can benefit _______.A. from the adoption of the "elder law"B. from rendering special services to the elderlyC. by enriching their professional knowledgeD. by winning the trust of the elderly to promote their own interests78. Why can businessmen make money in the emerging elder market?A. Retirees are more generous in spending money.B. They can employ more gerontologists.C. The elderly possess an enormous purchasing power.D. There are more elderly people working than before.79. Who can make big money in the new century according to the passage?A. Retirees who are business-minded.B. The volunteer workers in retirement homes.C. College graduates with an MBA or law degree.D. Professionals with a good knowledge of gerontology.80. It can be seen from the passage that the expansion of America's elderly population ________.A. will provide good job opportunities in many areasB. will impose an unbearable burden on societyC. may lead to nursing home abuse and age discriminationD. will create new fields of study in universitiesQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.The decline in moral standards—which has long concerned social analysts—has at last captured the attention of average Americans. And Jean Bethke Elshtain, for one, is glad.The fact that ordinary citizens are now starting to think seriously about the nation's moral climate, says this ethics (伦理学) professor at the University of Chicago, is reason to hope that new ideas will come forward to improve it.But the challenge is not to be underestimated. Materialism and individualism in American society are the biggest obstacles. "The thought that 'I'm in it for me' has become deeply rooted in the national consciousness," Ms. Elshtain says.Some of this can be attributed to the decay of traditional communities, in which neighbors looked out for one another, she says. With today's greater mobility and with so many couples working, those bonds have been weakened, replaced by a greater emphasis on self.In a 1996 poll of Americans, loss of morality topped the list of the biggest problems facing the US. And Elshtain says the public is correct to sense that: Data show that Americans are struggling with problems unheard of in the 1950s, such as classroom violence and a high rate of births to unmarried mothers.The desire for a higher moral standard is not a lament (挽歌) for some nonexistent "golden age," Elshtain says, nor is it a wishful (一厢情愿的) longing for a time that denied opportunities to women and minorities. Most people, in fact, favor a decrease in prejudice.Moral decline will not be reversed until people find ways to counter the materialism in society, she says. "Slowly, you recognize that the things that matter are those that can't be bought."81. Professor Elshtain is pleased to see that Americans ________.A. have adapted to a new set of moral standardsB. are longing for the return of the good old daysC. have realized the importance of material thingsD. are awakening to the lowering of their moral standards82. The moral decline of American society is caused mainly by ________.A. its growing wealthB. the self-centeredness of individualsC. underestimating the impact of social changesD. the prejudice against women and minorities83. Which of the following characterizes the traditional communities?A. Great mobility.B. Emphasis on individual effort.C. Concern for one's neighbors.D. Ever-weakening social bonds.84. In the 1950s, classroom violence ________.A. was something unheard ofB. attracted a lot of public attentionC. was by no means a rare occurrenceD. began to appear in analysts' data85. According to Elshtain, the current moral decline may be reversed ________.A. if people can return to the "golden age"B. when women and men enjoy equal rightsC. when people rid themselves of prejudiceD. if less emphasis is laid on material thingsQuestions 86 to 90 are based on the same passage or dialog.A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred (上帝的) texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic (施虐狂的) impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. As to fear, I think, we also need well-documented cases of children being dangerously terrified (恐惧) by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches (女巫), two-headed dragons, magic carpets (魔毯), etc., do not exist; and that, instead of indulging (沉溺) his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on abroomstick (女巫乘骑的扫帚柄) or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted (中魔法的) girl-friend.No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane (精神健全的) child has ever believed that it was.86. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is _______.A. repeated without variationB. treated with respectC. adapted by the parentD. set in the present87. Some people dislike fairy stories because they feel that they ________.A. tempt people to be cruel to childrenB. show the primitive cruelty in childrenC. lend themselves to undesirable experiments with childrenD. increase a tendency to have sadistic impulses in children88. According to the passage great fear can be stimulated in a child when the story is ________.A. set in realityB. heard for the first timeC. repeated too oftenD. dramatically told89. The author's mention of broomsticks and telephones is meant to suggest that ________.A. fairy stories are still being made upB. there is confusion about different kinds of truthC. people try to modernize old fairy storiesD. there is more concern for children's fears nowadays90. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Fairy stories are anything but beneficial to the growth of children.B. Fairy stories teach children the way to adapt to the society.C. No fairy story should be taken as the true description of the reality.D. No fairy story should be told to the children without modification.Questions 91 to 95 are based on the same passage or dialog.Standing alone at the Browns' party, Anna Mackintosh thought about her husband Edward, establishing him clearly in her mind's eye. He was a thin man, forty-one years of age, with fair hair that was often untidy. In the seventeen years they'd been married he had changed very little; he was still nervous with other people, and smiled in the same embarrassed way, and his face was still almost boyish.She believed she had failed him because he had wished for children and she had not been able to supply any. She had, over the years, become neurotic (神经机能病的) about this fact and in the end, quite some time ago now, she had consulted a psychiatrist (精神病学家), Dr. Abbat, at Edward's pleading (恳求).In the Browns' rich drawing room, its walls and ceiling gleaming (发微光) with a metallic (金属般的) surface of imitation gold, Anna listened to dance music coming from a tape recorder and continued to think about her husband.In a moment he would be at the party, since they had agreed to meet there, although by now it was three-quarters of an hour later than the time he had promised.The Browns were people he knew in a business way, and he had said he thought it wise that he and Anna should attend this gathering of theirs. She had never met them before, which made it more difficult for her, having to wait about, not knowing a soul in the room.When she thought about it she felt hard done by, for although Edward was kind to her and always had been, it was far from considerate to be as late as this. Because of her nervous condition she felt afraid and had developed a sickness in her stomach. She looked at her watch and sighed.91. Why did Anna feel awkward at the party?A. She came to the party too early.B. She was neglected by the host.C. She felt uncomfortable with the atmosphere of the party.D. She didn't know anyone there.92. What made Anna feel inadequate?A. She did not make a good mother to her children.B. She was unable to satisfy her husband's desire to have children.C. She did not get along well with her husband.D. She was unable to have a better understanding of her husband.93. As time went by, Anna started to get angry as ________.A. she found the Browns were much wealthier than they wereB. her husband was usually more thoughtfulC. she noticed that no one was willing to talk to herD. her husband was bad-mannered in the party94. According to the passage, Edward wanted Anna to attend the party because ________.A. he wanted her to have more of a social lifeB. he tried to distract her from some unpleasant thoughtsC. he needed her supportD. he thought she would impress the Browns95. What kind of woman Anna was according to the passage?A. Sensitive and worried.B. Open and talkative.C. Imaginative and cheerful.D. Sensible and easygoing.Questions 96 to 100 are based on the same passage or dialog.In the primary school, a child is in a comparatively simple setting and most of the time forms a relationship with one familiar teacher. On entering secondary school, a new world opens up and frequently it is a much more difficult world. The pupil soon learns to be less free in the way he speaks to teachers and even to his fellow pupils. He begins to lose gradually the free and easy ways of the primary school, for he senses the need for a more cautious approach in the secondary school where there are older pupils. Secondary staff and pupils suffer from the pressures of academic work and seem to have less time to stop and talk. Teachers with specialist roles may see hundreds of children in a week, and a pupil may be able to form relationships with very few of the staff. He has to decide which adults are approachable; good schools will make clear to every young person from the first year what guidance and personal help is available—but whether the reality of life in the institution actually encourages requests for help is another matter.Adults often forget what a confusing picture school can offer to a child. He sees a great deal of movement, a great number of people—often rather frightening-looking people—and realizes that an increasing number of choices and decisions have to be made. As he progresses through the school the confusion may become less but the choices and decisions required will increase. The school will rightly expect the pupil to take the first steps to obtain the help he needs, for this is the pattern of adult life for which he has to be prepared, but all the time the opportunities for personal and group advice must be presented in a way which makes them easy to understand and within easy reach of pupils.96. According to the passage one of the problems for pupils entering secondary schools is that ________.A. they are taught by many different teachersB. they do not attend lessons in every subjectC. the teachers are not so friendly and helpfulD. the teachers give most attention to a few pupils97. In secondary schools every pupil having problems should ________.A. know how to ask for helpB. go to ask any teacher he can findC. discuss his problem in class。
