we’re not aware how cheaply we can make this food ourselves. "

Enough “meaningless drivel”. That’s the message from a group of members of the UK
government who have been examining how social media firms like LinkedIn gather and use social
media data.
The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee’s report, released last week, has
blamed firms for making people sign up to long incomprehensible legal contracts and calls for an
international standard or kitemark (认证标记) to identify sites that have clear terms and
conditions.
“The term and conditions statement that we all carelessly agree to is meaningless drivel to
anyone,” says Andrew Miller, the chair of the committee. Instead, he says, firms should provide a
plain-English version of their terms. The simplified version would be checked by a third party and
awarded a kitemark if it is an accurate reflection of the original.
It is not yet clear who would administer the scheme, but the UK government is looking at
introducing it on a voluntary basis. “we need to think through how we make that work in
practice,” says Miller. Would we pay any more attention to a kitemark? “I think if you went and
did the survey, people would like to think they would,” says Nigel Shadbolt at the University of
Southampton, UK, who studies open data. “We do know people worry a lot about the
inappropriate use of their information. But what would happen in practice is another matter,” he
says.
Other organisations such as banks ask customers to sign long contracts they may not read or
understand, but Miller believes social media requires special attention because it is so new. “We
still don’t know how significant the long-term impact is going to be of unwise things that kids put
on social media that come back and bite them in 20 years’ time,” he says.
Shadbolt, who gave
evidence to the committee, says the problem is that we don’t know how companies will use our da
ta because their business models and uses of data are still evolving. Large collections of personal
information have become valuable only recently, he says.
The shock and anger when a social media firm does something with data that people don’t
expect, even if users have apparently permission, show that the current situation isn’t working. If
properly administered, a kitemark on terms and conditions could help people know what exactly
they are signing up to. Although they would still have to actually read them.
33. What does the phrase “meaningless drivel” in paragraphs 1 and 3 refer to?
A. Legal contracts that social media firms make people sign up to.
B. Warnings from the UK government against unsafe websites.
C. Guidelines on how to use social media websites properly.
D. Insignificant data collected by social media firms.
34. It can be inferred from the passage that Nigel Shadbolt doubts whether_______.
A. social media firms would conduct a survey on the kitemark scheme
B. people would pay as much attention to a kitemark as they think
C. a kitemark scheme would be workable on a nationwide scale
D. the kitemark would help companies develop their business models
35. Andrew Miller thinks social media needs more attention than banks mainly because_______.
A. their users consist largely of kids under 20 years old
B. the language in their contracts is usually harder to understand
C. the information they collected could become more valuable in future
D. it remains unknown how users’data will be taken advantage of
36. The writer advises users of social media to_______.
A. think carefully before posting anything onto such websites
B. read the terms and conditions even if there is a kitemark
C. take no further action if they can find a kitemark
D. avoid providing too much personal information
【答案】33. A 34. B 35. D 36. B
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。当我们在社交媒体上注册登记的时候,总会签署一些无意义的法律合同,
文章就此现象展开了讨论,并列举了多人的不同观点。
【33 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句“...... has blamed firms for making people sign up to long
incomprehensible legal contracts....”可知很多社交媒体公司和用户签订了没有意义的法律合
同。而这些合同是没有意义的废话,也起不到任何作用,很多用户根本没有仔细阅读合同的
具体内容。所以通过上下文的语境可以判断出第 1 和第 3 段中的“meaningless drivel”指的是
社交媒体公司让人们签署的法律合同。故选 A。
【34 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中 Would we pay any more attention to a kitemark? “I think if you went
and did the survey, people would like to think they would,” says Nigel Shadbolt at the University
of Southampton, UK, who studies open data.”可知,我们能不能多注意一下认证标记?“我认为
如果你去做了调查,人们会认为他们会去做,”英国南安普敦大学研究公开数据的 Nigel
Shadbolt 说。由此可推知,Nigel Shadbolt 怀疑人们是否会像他们认为的那样关注认证标记。
故选 B。
【35 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段 Other organisations such as banks ask customers to sign long contracts
they may not read or understand, but Miller believes social media requires special attention
because it is so new. “We still don’t know how significant the long-term impact is going to be of
unwise things that kids put on social media that come back and bite them in 20 years’ time,” he
says.可知其他机构,如银行,会要求客户签署他们可能不会读或理解的长期合同,但 Miller
认为,社交媒体需要特别关注,因为它是太新了。他说:“我们仍然不知道孩子们在社交媒
体上放的不明智的东西会产生多大的长期影响,而 20 年后这些东西又会回来伤害到他们。”
由此可知,Andrew Miller 认为社交媒体比银行需要更多的关注,主要是因为用户的数据将
如何被利用仍然是个未知数。故选 D。
【36 题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一句 If properly administered, a kitemark on terms and conditions
could help people know what exactly they are signing up to. Although they would still have to
actually read them.可知如果管理得当,一个关于条款和条件的认证标记可以帮助人们知道他
们到底签了什么。尽管他们仍然需要真正阅读它们。由此可知,作者建议社交媒体用户阅读
条款和条件,即使有一个认证标记。故选 B。
D
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡
上将该项涂黑。
Bad news sells. If it bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are
the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers. But now that information is
being spread and monitored(监控) in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By
tracking people’s e-mails and online posts, scientists have found that good news can spread faster
and farther than disasters and sob stories.
“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the University of
Pennsylvania. “They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling. But when you share a
story with your friends, you care a lot more how they react. You don’t want them to think of you
as a Debbie Downer.”
Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication—e-mails, Web posts and reviews,
face-to-face conversations—found that it tended to be more positive than negative(消极的), but
that didn’t necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often
simply because people experienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility,
Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousands of articles on
The New York Times’ website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e-mailed” list for six
months. One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to
make the list than non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times’ readers and made
them want to share this positive feeling with others.
Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired negative feelings
like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused(激发)
one way or the other, and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more
likely it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious: Why Things Catch
On.”

The Thursday of the camp week is Fire Truck Day,when dozens of local fire trucks arrive,
along with camp alumni(校友),doctors and nurses,and family members.Campers get to see fire
vehicles up close and interact with the firefighters.
Sometimes,they are the very ones who rescued the campers,months or years earlier.It is,they
say,a bond that never goes away.But Fire Truck Day contributes in another way,allowing them to
see each other in a different light.
Memories of a bad fire can be unforgettable.Nearly two years ago,Pazdernik carried an
injured girl out of a burning house in which her parents perished,and later the girl was adopted by
a kind family.
On Fire Truck Day,Pazdernik got to see the girl he saved,Shaniya Simpson.She shared a hug
with the firefighters who had rescued her.and said it was good to see them.
"I think it helps her heal,"said Kim Canterbury,who was Shaniya's teacher at the time of the
fire."Just by saying thank you."

you had an impact on her,"he said."lt's definitely a lot more fulfilling."
