C

It is reported that the Twitter accounts of U.S. president Barack Obama, singer Britney Spears and other famous figures were hacked on Monday.

Twitter founder Biz Stone, in a post on the official company blog, said a total of 33 Twitter accounts had been hacked including those of Obama, Spears and Rick Sanchez, a CNN television presenter with tens of thousands of followers. As a result, fake messages sent out in their names on the micro-blogging service.

Twitter is a social-networking blog site that allows users to send status updates, or “tweets,” from cell phones, instant messaging services and Facebook in less than 140 characters.

“We immediately locked down the accounts and investigated the issue,” Stone said. “These accounts were changed by an individual who hacked into some of the tools our support team uses to help people do things like editing the email address associated with their Twitter accounts.”

The message from the fake Obama invited recipients (接受者)to take a survey and win 500 dollars worth of gas while the CNN presenter pretended to tell his followers that he was “high on crack” and would probably not be coming into work on Monday. Twitter was also an attack target over the weekend in which hackers attempted to get passwords and other personal information from Twitter users. Stone said Monday’s hacking incident was unrelated to the whishing scam(欺骗).

The attacks are the first known security issues with Twitter, which has grown as a popular social networking site during the last year. Launched in August , it has been accepted willingly by a number of celebrities including Obama, who has more than 150,000 followers, and four-time NBA champion Shaquille O'Neal of the Phoenix Suns.

63. According to the passage, Twitter__________. A. was founded by Barack Obama and Britney Spears B. forces people to change their own information C. allows users to check others’ wrong messages D. is a popular social networking blog site

. What can users do while on Twitter? A. Having an interview with others. B. Repairing the website with tools. C. Helping people who are in trouble. D. Editing their own email addresses.

65. The following statements are true except _________. A. There is only a security problem known to people B. Twitter takes immediate action after the incident C. Obama’s accounts have been changed on purpose D. The CNN presenter is coming to work on Monday 66. The passage wants to________. A. introduce a new website to people B. explain the methods to avoid safety issues C. describe an accident on a blog site D. show the popularity of a wet site

D

Researchers Look Behind the Tears to Study Crying

Many of American people found themselves unusually moved by the historic presidential inauguration(就职演说)last week in Washington. Watching the huge crowds, we saw laughter, cheers, hugs-but also many tears. It made us wonder: why do people cry? Surely tears must be good for us—a way to calm the mind and cleanse the body. Yet studies show that crying sometimes makes people feel worse.

Three researchers in Florida and the Netherlands recently looked more deeply into the subject. They examined detailed descriptions of crying experiences. Psychologist Jonathan Rottenberg at the University of South Florida says they wanted to study crying as it happens in everyday life, not in a laboratory.

The team analyzed information from the International Study on Adult Crying. As part of that study，three thousand people in different countries, mostly college students, wrote about recent crying experiences. They noted causes, surroundings and any people involved in the event. They also reported how they felt after they cried. Professor Rottenberg says the research showed that all crying experiences are not created equal. Crying does not always make a person feel better, he says. About ten percent of people reported feeling worse after they cried. But a third felt better after crying. And a majority reported the experience as helpful.

The research showed that people who cry alone may not do as well as those with others around. People who reached out for emotional support at the time and received it reported better results from the crying experience. But Professor Rottenberg says those who felt shame or embarrassment while crying were less likely to report that crying had been helpful.

Research has shown that women cry more often and more intensely than men. But it may not be to better effect, says the psychologist. The new findings, he says, did not show that a person’s sex was an advantage of beneficial crying. That is to say, that women cry more does not mean they are more likely to have a “good” cry.

The paper entitled Is Crying Beneficial? appeared in December in Current Directions in Psychological Science. And there is more to learn. Jonathan Rottenberg says the science of crying is still in its infancy.

67. The presidential inauguration in the first paragraph is mentioned to_________. A. show the importance of speeches. B. introduce the topic about crying

C. explain people’s dissatisfaction with the result D. describe a historic moment causing crying 68. How did the researchers carry out the research?

A. They studied crying experiences in labs instead of in everyday life. B. They collected the crying experiences of the students at the colleges. C. They studied the crying experiences of adults from various countries. D. They noted their own crying experiences and compared with others. 69. We can learn from the passage that________. A. it may be better to cry alone than with others around B. some support from others may make crying helpful

C. women who cry more of ten may have better effects than men D. the effects will be better if you feel shy while crying

70. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. Most people can benefit from crying. B. The more you cry, the better you will feel. C. People always feel it a shame to cry. D. Crying experiences make people worse.

We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.

“You could win prizes.” our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing. “The first prize is ten dollars. You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster. ”

We studied the board critically. Some of us looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard, rocking the sheets to the right or left while we conjured up our designs. Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. We had plans for that ten–dollar grand prize, each and every one of us. I’m going to spend mine on candies，one hopeful would announce, while another practiced looking serious, wise and rich.

Everyone in the class made a poster. Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins, while others used nothing but colored construction paper. Some of us used big designs，and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one corner of our poster and let the space draw the viewer’s attention to it. Some of us would wander past the good students’ desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. It was yet another grown-up trick they seemed especially fond of making all of us believe we had a fair chance, and then always–always–rewarding the same old winners.

I believe I drew a sailboat，but I can’t say that with any certainty. I made it. I admired it. I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen, and then I turned it in. Minutes passed.

No one came along to give me the grand prize, and then someone distracted me，and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.

I was still sitting at my desk，thinking, “What poster?” when the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.

71. What was the teacher’s requirement for the poster? A. It must appear in time. B. It must be done in class.

C. It must be done on a construction sheet. D. It must include the words on the blackboard.

72. The underlined phrase in paragraph 3 most probably means _________. A. formed an idea for

B. made an outline for C. made some space for D. chose some colors for

73. After the teacher’s words，all the students in the class _________. A. 1ooked very serious B. thought they would be rich C. began to think about their designs D. began to play games

74. After seeing the good students’ designs, some students _________. A. 1oved their own designs more B. thought they would not win the prize C. put their own designs in a corner D. thought they had a fair chance

75. We can infer from the passage that the author _________. A. enjoyed grown-up tricks very much B. 1oved poster competitions very much C. felt surprised to win the competition D. became wise and rich after the competition

These years, global warming is becoming a serious problem, endangering people’s life.

There are several reasons for the rise of temperature. First of all, a lot of greenhouse gas is produced by cars and factories; further more, people burn a lot of coal and wood for their life,so the loss of forests is another reason for global warming.

Global warming will cause some harmful effects. In the first place, some islands will disappear because of the rise of sea level. Extreme weather will also result from global warming. What’s worse when temperature rises, the production of crops will decrease, which directly endangers people’s lives. If the temperature keeps rising, some animals and plants will disappear from the planet, thus destroying the ecosystem.

Facing such a threat, we should join efforts to ‘cool’ the earth. For example, we can take a subway or bus to work instead of driving private cars to reduce greenhouse gas. All in all, we are supposed to remember it’s our responsibility to save our earth.
