A
For a period of time in the early 80s, I watched I Dream of Jeannie reruns every afternoon in the empty time between school and supper. But I always felt a little deflated when the closing theme came on, since it meant that I had to wait an entire day for the next episode.
Decades later, thanks to modern technology, on-demand viewing and an endless supply of content now allow us to find exactly the entertainment we want, when we want it. My own kids happily binge-watch Fresh Off the Boat, just as I dreamt of doing with Jeannie.
Lately, I've been thinking about a disadvantage of our just-for-you world. My kids miss out on all the things that are not just for them. Looking back, some of my more memorable discoveries as a child came about only because I didn't have access to entertainment that I would have preferred.
When we would visit our aunts, my sisters and brothers and I didn't have tablets to keep ourselves occupied while the adults chatted. So we would read whatever we could find. I looked forward to Sunday afternoons at Aunt Rose's so that I could catch up on aliens and Hollywood stars in Weekly World News. These things—none of which were aimed at my tastes—were all that was on offer. However, they brought me so much enjoyment.
Electronic searching now takes us directly to what we seek. We are less likely to come across things that have nothing to do with what we are looking for. But finding something by accident is powerful in its purposelessness. It's nature throwing things up against a wall to see what sticks. It's the force that drives evolution.
Getting exactly what you want all the time sounds great. But as anyone who is familiar with fantasy stories knows, there's always a catch.
1. What does the underlined word "deflated" in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Depressed.
B. Thrilled.
C. Convinced.
D. Ashamed.
2. What brought happiness to the author at Aunt Rose's?
A. Latest tablets.
B. Brothers and sisters.
C. Different reading materials.
D. Pleasant conversations.
3. What is the author's attitude to electronic searching?
A. It contributes to the evolution.
B. It's absolutely beneficial to adults.
C. It's a blessing of this modern world.
D. It takes unexpected joy away from people.
4. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. What Was on Offer in the Early 80s
B. What Our Kids Miss Out in a Just-for-You World
C. How Adults Had Fun with Inaccessible Entertainment
D. How Anxious-to-Please Internet Changed the Future of Kids
B
It's nothing new that you can find many files or services you can download or use from the Internet. The question is: Is downloading legal or not? In most cases the answer is negative, because sharing and downloading are illegal. Of course, you can find files for legal downloading, but you have to pay for them.
It seems innocent if you click on the download mark, but it isn't. It should be compared with stealing in a store. Would you steal a magazine, an MP3 player or a car? Downloading from the Internet is a theft, and sharing files, once you have stolen them, only makes it worse. For example, if everybody only downloaded, movies wouldn't make money and the studios wouldn't invest millions of dollars to make new ones.
Many people may think it better, easier and cheaper to do downloading. I think, that is the main reason why Internet users prefer sharing something to buying them. In the modern world we love convenience and what could be more convenient than getting music, films and games without having to leave your house? You don't need to pay for what you get, there is no registration, and you don't have to wait until shops open or the CD/DVD you want is posted to you. However, you could be in big trouble if you are caught. You could go to prison as a result of acting unlawfully, but so far only a tiny amount of people have been charged with downloading illegally. The majority of people who download illegally, and use the files for their personal use, will not get in trouble. And that's why it's important for people to understand what the long-term consequences are if they don't want to pay for their music, films and TV. Will film and music companies still spend millions of pounds every year if they have no chance of making a profit? The answer is plainly "no".
Finally I would like to say that the Internet offers a lot of services for money, but people will always try to get them for free. To summarise my thoughts, I'd like to highlight that illegal downloading is both unfair towards producers and dangerous for those who practise this kind of activity. You have to decide whether to buy or download.
1. Why do many people download files free from the Internet?
A. Because they follow others' examples to do such things.
B. Because they don't think they may be charged by the producer.
C. Because they think everything on the Net can be shared by others.
D. Because they think it is legal, convenient and easy.
2. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
A. Downloading helps movies become more popular.
B. Downloading free files is as illegal as stealing.
C. Sharing files on the Internet is dangerous.
D. Sharing files on the Internet can make a profit.
3. What does the underlined word "highlight" in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Stress.
B. Explain.
C. Admit.
D. Deny.
4. What is the author's purpose of writing this text?
A. He advises readers to download legal files.
B. He asks readers to limit the amount of free downloading.
C. He wants to make it clear that downloading for free is against the law.
D. He tells readers how to avoid being charged for downloading.
II. 语法填空

These people, who 2. ________ (know) as "Net refuseniks", make up 44% of UK households, or 11.2 million people in number.
The research also showed that more than 70 percent of these people said that they were not interested in getting 3. ________ (connect) to the Internet. This number has risen 4. ________ just over 50% in 2005 to the present 70%, with most lacking in many computer 5. ________ (skill) as a reason for not using the Internet, though some also said it was because of the cost.
More and more people are getting broadband(宽带) and high speed net 6. ________ (be) almost everywhere in the UK, but there are still a lot of people who wouldn't like 7. ________ (take) the first step.

If the gap(落差) between those 9. ________ use the Internet and those don't continues to widen, those without broadband will get left behind and miss many chances, 10. ________ (especial) in their work.
III. 话题微写作 (人与社会之信息技术与安全)

I. 阅读理解
A篇 语篇导读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者儿时的亲身经历,感受到现代的电子搜索使人们可以直接得到所搜索的东西,但是也让人们失去了很多意想不到的快乐。
1. A 词义猜测题。根据第一段最后一句可知,作者要等待一整天才能看到下一集,所以当片尾曲开始时,作者会感到沮丧。故推知,deflated意为“沮丧的”,与depressed意义一致。故选A。
2. C 细节理解题。根据第四段第二、三句及最后一句可知,罗斯阿姨家的不同的阅读材料给作者带来了快乐。故选C。
3. D 推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句及第五段前两句可知,意料之外的东西可以给人们带来很多快乐,而电子搜索会直接提供人们所搜索的东西,人们不太可能遇见意料之外的东西,所以作者认为电子搜索带走了人们意想不到的快乐。故选D。
4. B 标题归纳题。根据第三段前两句和第五段前两句并结合文章内容可知,本文主要介绍了电子搜索使人们可以直接得到所搜索的东西,但是也让人们失去了很多意想不到的快乐,所以B项“在一个只属于你的世界里,我们的孩子错过了什么”可以作为文章标题。故选B。
B篇 语篇导读:本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了从互联网上下载文件的行为是否合法。作者明确指出,在大多数情况下,免费下载和分享是非法行为,并将其与商店行窃相比较。文章分析了人们倾向于免费下载的原因(便捷、免费),但也指出了其长期后果:如果创作者无法获利,他们将不再投入资金制作新的作品。最后,作者强调非法下载对生产者不公,对下载者也有风险,并呼吁读者做出正确选择。
1. D 细节理解题。根据第三段前两句“Many people may think it better, easier and cheaper to do downloading. I think, that is the main reason...”以及后文对便捷性的描述可知,许多人认为免费下载更好、更容易、更便宜(即认为其合法、便捷且容易)。选项D概括了此意。A、B、C三项在文中均未直接提及或支撑。
2. B 推理判断题。根据第二段作者将下载比作在商店偷窃(“It should be compared with stealing in a store.”),并明确指出“Downloading from the Internet is a theft”可以推断,免费下载文件就像偷窃一样是非法的。A项与文意相反(下载会导致电影无法盈利);C项“危险”不是本段强调重点;D项“可以盈利”与文意相悖。
3. A 词义猜测题。分析最后一段,“To summarise my thoughts, I'd like to highlight that...”意为“总结我的想法,我想强调……”。highlight在此处意为“强调,突出”,与stress同义。B(解释)、C(承认)、D(否认)均不符合语境。
4. C 写作目的题。通读全文,作者开篇提出“下载是否合法”的问题,并给出否定答案,接着将其类比为偷窃,分析人们免费下载的原因和潜在后果,最后总结指出非法下载的不公与风险。全文的核心目的是阐明免费下载是违法的这一观点。A项“建议下载合法文件”不是主要目的;B项“限制免费下载量”未提及;D项“告知如何避免被起诉”与文意不符。
II. 语法填空
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在英国不使用网络的人的数量在上升,同时他们也会失去很多机会。
1. the 考查固定短语。the number of 意为“……的数量”,为固定短语。
2. are known 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。设空处是who引导的定语从句的谓语动词;此处陈述客观事实,应用一般现在时;表示“作为……而有名”,应用短语be known as;从句主语who指代的是先行词These people,所以be动词用复数形式are。
3. connected 考查形容词。设空处在系动词get后作表语,应用形容词connected。
4. from 考查介词。介词短语from...to...意为“从……到……”。
5. skills 考查名词的数。设空处作介词in的宾语,应用名词;根据many可知,应用名词的复数形式。
6. is 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。设空处在句中作谓语;叙述客观事实,应用一般现在时;主语是high speed net,所以be动词用单数形式。
7. to take 考查非谓语动词。would like to do意为“想要做某事”,为动词短语。
8. increasing 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,此处为“with+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,设空处和宾语之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,应用动词的现在分词形式作宾语补足语。
9. who 考查定语从句。设空处引导定语从句,先行词是those,指人,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词who。
10. especially 考查副词。设空处应用副词形式作状语,修饰后面的介词短语in their work。

1. As time goes on; more and more popular
2. becomes the focus of people's concern; which does deserve
3. devote to the information security technology; providing
