政治经济类 ‎1    In fairy tales, it's usually the princess that needs protecting. At Google in Silicon Valley, the princess is the one defending the castle. Parisa Tabriz is a 31-year-old with perhaps the most unique job title in engineering- “Google Security Princess”. Her job is to hack into the most popular web browser (浏览器) on the planet, trying to find weaknesses in the system before the “black hats” do. To defeat Google's attackers, Tabriz must firstly think like them.‎ ‎    Tabriz's role has evolved dramatically in the eight years since she first started working at Google. Back then, the young graduate from Illinois University was one of 50 security engineers---today there are over 500.‎ ‎    Cybercrime (网络犯罪) has come a long way in the past decade - from the Nigerian Prince Scam to credit card theft. Tabriz's biggest concern now is the people who find bugs in Google's software, and sell the information to governments or criminals. To fight against this, the company has set up a Vulnerability Rewards Program, paying anywhere from $100 to $ 20,000 for reported mistakes.‎ ‎    It's a world away from Tabriz's computer-free childhood home in Chicago. The daughter of an Iranian-American doctor father, and Polish-American nurse mother, Tabriz had little contact with computers until she started studying engineering at college. Gaze across a line-up of Google security staff today and you'll find women like Tabriz are few and far between ‎(稀少的) ---though in the last few years she has hired more female tech geniuses. She admits there's an obvious gender disequilibrium in Silicon Valley.‎ ‎    Funnily enough, during training sessions Tabriz first asks new colleagues to hack into not a computer, but a vending machine. Tabriz's job is as much about technological know-how (专门知识) as understanding the psychology of attackers.‎ ‎1.What can we learn about Tabriz from the passage? A.She was the first female engineer at Google. B.She must think differently so as to defeat the attackers. C.Her job relates to not only technology but also psychology. D.Her frequent contact with computers in childhood benefits her a lot. 2.Why has Google set up a Vulnerability Rewards Program? A.To protect Google against ‎ cybercrime. B.To monitor the normal operation of Google. C.To help the government locate the cybercriminals. D.To raise people's awareness of personal information safety. 3.What does the underlined word “disequilibrium” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A.Imbalance. B.Preference. C.Difference. D.Discrimination. 4.Which of the following could be the best title of this passage? A.What leads to cybercrime B.The "Security Princess" who guards Google C.Measures taken by Google to protect its users D.How to become an excellent security engineer ‎2    Over seven months have passed since Panamanian officials launched an expansion of the world famous Panama Canal. Officials agreed to the expansion so that many of the world’s largest cargo ships (货船) could easily pass through the canal. Yet the $ 5.25-billion project has problems. It says ships still continue to rub against the canal’s walls and wear out its defenses designed to protect both shipping and the waterway.‎ A dangerous system ‎    The canal links two oceans-the Atlantic and the Pacific-through a system of locks (船闸). The locks are like steps. They raise and lower ships from one part of the waterway to another on their trip from ocean to ocean.‎ ‎    With the old locks, which are still in use, large ships would be tied to powerful engines on both sides. These engines help to keep the ships in the center of the canal. In the new locks, the ships are tied to tugboats (拖船). One tugboat is tied to the front of the ship, with the other tied to the back. These boats then guide the ships through the canal.‎ ‎    At first, pilots of the cargo ships and tugboat operators would sometimes try to rub the boats against the canal walls as a way to keep the ships straight. But this caused damage to rubber padding (垫料) lining the walls.‎ ‎    Not enough training ‎    Even before the expanded canal opened in June 2016, tugboat operators had expressed concern about the new system. Many asked for more training. The fears and dangers remain, although the boats are going through.‎ ‎    The Panama Canal Authority reports that, between June 2016 and January 2017, there were only 15 incidents that resulted in damage to locks or ships. That represents about 2 percent of the 700 times ships that have sailed through the expanded canal.‎ ‎    Pilots have argued they should be replaced with a system of floating bumpers (减震) like those used in some European locks. Officials say they plan to continue operating with the current system of defenses, but changes could happen in the future.‎ ‎1.What is the difference between the new locks and the old ones? A.The old locks don’t need rubber padding as defenses. B.The new locks need tugboats tied to both sides of the ships. C.The new locks are easier for the largest ships to pass through the canal. D.The old locks need powerful engines to drag the ships through the canal. 2.What is the Panama Canal Authority’s attitude towards the expanded canal? A.Cautious. B.Critical. C.Positive. D.Doubtful. 3.What can we learn about the current system of defenses? A.No ships shall rub against the canal walls to protect it. B.Nothing will be done at present to improve it. C.More training will be given to pilots for it. D.A new system will replace it.‎ ‎3     While small may be beautiful, tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems, particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.‎ The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB), which was formed six months ago to campaign for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants. Beds that are too small,‎ ‎ shower heads that are too low, and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height, it says.‎ ‎     But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met. The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds, doorways, and chairs has remained unchanged.“The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it, so even a king-size bed at 6′6″ (6 feet and 6 inches) is falling short for 25% of men, while the standard 6′3″ bed caters for less than half of the male population.” Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy, “seven-foot beds would work fine.”‎ ‎     Similarly, restaurant tables can cause no end of problems. Small tables, which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them, are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.Some have already taken note, however. At Queens Moat Houses′ Caledoman Hotel in Edinburgh, 6′6″beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors, particularly Americans.‎ ‎1.What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?‎ A.To provide better services. B.To rebuild hotels and restaurants. C.To draw public attention to the needs of the tall. D.To attract more people to become its members.‎ ‎2.Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to Phil Heinricy?‎ A.7′2″. B.7′ C.6′6″ D.6′3″‎ ‎3.What may happen to restaurants with small tables?‎ A.They may lose some customers. B.They may start businesses elsewhere. C.They have to find easy chairs to match the tables. D.They have to provide enough space for the long-legged.‎ ‎4.What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?‎ A.Tall people pay more for larger beds. B.6′6″beds have taken the place of 6′3″beds. C.Special rooms are kept for Americans. D.Guest rooms are standardized.‎ ‎4    Yelp, the San Francisco Internet company that makes reviews of restaurants and other businesses across a large part of America, is getting into the food delivery business.‎ ‎    Today, the company has announced that it has agreed to acquire Eat24, a food company that delivers food to homes on behalf of partner restaurants. Yelp is paying $134 million for the company—$75 million in cash and the rest in stock. Eat24 works with 20,000 restaurants in more than 1,500 cities all over the U.S.‎ ‎    On Yelp's reviews site, you can find new restaurants to suit your tastes, and now that the company is acquiring Eat24, the idea is that it will also let you take the next step: order food to your door.‎ ‎    “If you're looking at a restaurant, you want to be able to book that restaurant,” Yelp co-founder and CEO Jeremy said in a Tuesday interview. “If we can integrate(融入) that into the Yelp experience, it makes the site much better.”‎ ‎    The move is just one way that some of Internet's most recognizable names are branching into online food delivery to improve their existing business. Last August, payments company Square bought Caviar, a high-end quick food delivery service. And that same month, Uber tested a fast food delivery service called UberFRESH, which aimed to deliver meals from local restaurants to customers in less than 10 minutes.‎ ‎    In each case, food delivery can provide an added source of income, and it can also help these companies push the use of their existing services. The market for food delivery is hardly small, and mobile technologies can speed up the process, potentially expanding the business even further.‎ ‎1.How does Yelp pay for the company Eat24?‎ A.Totally by cheque. B.Totally in ‎ cash. C.Partly in stock. D.Only in credit.‎ ‎2.Customers can do all the following on the new Yelp's website EXCEPT ________.‎ A.finding the restaurants they like B.booking a restaurant they like C.ordering food to their door D.enjoying much cheaper food ‎3.What does the underlined word “acquire” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A.Bargain. B.Claim. C.Request. D.Purchase.‎ ‎4.From the passage, we can infer that many companies ________.‎ A.begin to set up their own food branches B.make little money from their existing business C.begin to attach importance to food delivery making D.give up the present business and turn to food making ‎5、    When Columbus “sailed the ocean blue in 1492” he wasn't looking for America, he was searching for a route from Spain to China; America just got in the way.‎ ‎    The Spanish were after the riches of Asia: silk, dates, spices. Until later adventures discovered how to sail to the Far East, trade with China depended on the Silk Road. The trade between China and Europe brought huge wealth, so the Spanish had a strong desire to find a new way lo the East. Eventually a way appeared; as sea traffic developed from the 17th century onwards, the overland route diminished.‎ ‎    Now China is seeking to revive(复兴) the Silk Road and is preparing to invest 4 trillion pounds in new roads trail links, oil pipelines and other basic facilities. It is hoped that goods can be shipped westwards by land far more quickly and economically than by sea.‎ ‎    But the plan is also to attract more tourists. Actually, China does pretty well for tourists already; it’s the world's fourth most visited country. Two cities Beijing and Shanghai possess the tourism ‎ business, with significant interest in destinations such as Xi'an and Chengdu. While Beijing is modern, cities such as Lanzhou and Dunhuang have one foot planted firmly in old China.‎ ‎    Other places featured include Xi'an, the former capital of China, where you can come face to face with the Terracotta Army built to protect China's first emperor in the afterlife. From Lanzhou tour members take the train to Jiayuguan,China’s western gateway and a key location on the Silk Road.‎ ‎    There is also a four-day coach journey along the original Silk Route through the Xinjiang region to Kashgar. Along the way,at Kurla,you can visit the ruins of the Iron Fortress.‎ ‎1.What does the underlined word “diminished” in Paragraph 2 mean? A.Discovered. B.Disappeared. C.Disturbed. D.Displayed. 2.What is the purpose of reviving the Silk Road? A.To rebuild the ruins of the Iron Fortress. B.To construct new roads and other basic structures. C.To make transportation westwards faster and cheaper. D.To draw more inland tourists' attention to the western gateway. 3.What can we learn about the Silk Road? A.It is nothing but a trade route. B.It may destroy some cities' ancient style. C.It attracts foreign investment of 4 trillion. D.It promotes the tourism industry of China. 4.What is the best title for the text? A.The Charming of the Silk Road B.The Function of the Silk Road C.The Origin of the Silk Road D.The Future of the Silk Road ‎6、     A new commodity brings about a highly profitable,fast-growing industry,urging antitrust(反垄断)regulators to step in to check those who control its flow. A century ago ,the resource in question was oil. Now similar concerns ares being raised by the giants(巨头)that deal in data, the oil of the digital age. The most valuable firms are Google,Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft. All look unstoppable.‎ ‎     Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up. But size alone is not a crime,The giants' success has benefited consumers. Few want to live without search engines or a quick delivery, Far from charging consumers high prices, many of these services are free (users pay, in effect, by handing over yet more data). And the appearance of new-born giants suggests that newcomers can make waves, too.‎ ‎     But there is cause for concern. The internet has made data abundant, all-present and far more valuable, changing the nature of data and competition. Google initially used the data collected from users to target advertising better. But recently it has discovered that data can be turned into new services: translation and visual recognition, to be sold to other companies. Internet companies’ control of data gives them enormous power. So they have a “God’s eye view” of activities in their own markets and beyond.‎ ‎     This nature of data makes the antitrust measures of the past less useful. Breaking up firms like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves: in time, one of them would become great again. A rethink is required—and as a new approach starts to become apparent, two ideas stand out.‎ ‎     The first is that antitrust authorities need to move form the industrial age into the 21st century. When considering a merger(兼并),for example, they have traditionally used size to determine when to step in. They now need to take into account the extent of firms' data assets(资产) when assessing the impact of deals. The purchase price could also be a signal that an established company is buying a new-borm threat. When this takes place,especially when a new-born company has no revenue to speak of, the regulators should raise red flags.‎ ‎     The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of on-line services have over data and give more to those who supply them.Companies could be forced to consumers what information they hold and how many money they make form it.Govemments could order the sharing of certain kinds of data, with users' consent.‎ ‎     Restarting antitrust for the information age will not be easy But if govemments don't wants a data oconomy by a few giants, they must act soon.‎ ‎1.Why is there a call to break up giants?‎ A.They have controlled the data market B.They collect enormous private data C.They no longer provide free services D.They dismissed some new-born giants ‎2.What does the technological innovation in Paragraph 3 indicate?‎ A.Data giants’ technology is very expensive B.Google’s idea is popular among data firms C.Data can strengthen giants’ controlling position D.Data can be turned into new services or products ‎3.By paying attention to firms’ data assets, antitrust regulators could                   .‎ A.kill a new threat B.avoid the size trap C.favour bigger firms D.charge higher prices ‎4.What is the purpose of loosening the giants’ control of data?‎ A.Big companies could relieve data security pressure. B.Governments could relieve their financial pressure. C.Consumers could better protect their privacy. D.Small companies could get more opportunities.‎ ‎7、A billionaire has recently made one of the biggest charitable(慈善的)donations to a university in China’s history. Chen Tianqiao donated $115 million to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to help advanced brain research. The donation will be spent deepening the understanding of how the brain works. Chen has been interested in brain research, believing it can shape the industries such as artificial intelligence and virtual reality. However, this huge donation has caused heated discussing among Chinese scholars and internet users alike.‎ Many criticized him for choosing to give money to a foreign university rather than home institutes for brain research, which are developing fast and are on track to catch up with the US in just a few years. Rao Yi, a biologist at Peking University, even said the donation was a typical mistake.‎ Others, however, support his choice. They believe Caltech is a more reasonable choice compared to Chinese research institutions. Caltech has a long history and has taken a leading position in biology, and therefore it produces more efficient results. In addition, the results of the research benefit not only the American people, but also the rest of the world.‎ A similar controversial case started two years ago when Pan Shiyi, chairman of SOHO China, donated $15 million to Harvard University to help disadvantaged Chinese students.‎ Many believe that China is still behind in the management and use of donated money, and that as a result, Chinese charity donors are looking abroad. In comparison, Western countries like the US, which have a long history of donating money, have well-developed systems that use money efficiently. They can also provide full access for donors who want to track the use of the money. To get more donations, Chinese universities should be braver and more honest. They need self-reflection, rather than envy.‎ ‎1.Why did Chen’s donation draw criticism? A.It was not given to a Chinese university. B.It was one of the largest to altech. C.It was not used efficiently in the USA. D.It was used in brain research. 2.What is the reason for some people in favor of Chen’s choice?s A.The Chinese are just too envious B.The achievements will benefit the whole world C.Caltech is a university with a longer history D.The fund can help disadvantaged Chinese students 3.What is then author’s purpose to mention Pan Shiyi in the passage? A.To suggest the enthusiasm of the billionaires about universities. B.To show off generosity of the billionaires in China. C.To inform some Chinese students are poor at ‎ academy D.To prove the widespread disagreement over donating abroad. 4.What does the author think of the Chinese universities should do to get more fund? A.explore artificial intelligence B.grow fast and catch up with the US C.use the donations efficiently and reasonably D.educate braver and more honest graduates ‎8    Travis is the manager of G&G where he is responsible for forty employees(雇员) and profits(利润) of over $2 million per year. He's never late to work. He does not get upset on the job. When one of his employees started crying after a customer screamed at her, Travis took her away. "Your working uniform is your shelter," he told her. "Nothing anyone says will ever hurt you. You will always be as strong as you want to be."     Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses, an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee's occupation. The training has, Travis says, changed his life. G&G has taught him how to live, how to focus, how to get to work on time, and how to master his emotions(情绪). Most importantly, it taught him willpower.     At the center of that education is an extreme focus on an all-important habit; willpower. Dozens of cases show that willpower is the single most important habit for a person's success.     And the best way to strengthen willpower is to make it into a habit. "Sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren't working hard—but that's because they've made it automatic," Angela Duckworth, one of the University of Pennsylvania researchers said. "Their willpower occurs without them having to think about it."     The company spent millions of dollars developing programs of study to train employees on self-control. Managers wrote workbooks that serve as guides to how to make willpower a habit in workers' lives. Those courses arc, in part, why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than $10 billion a year. 1.We learn from Paragraph 2 that employees in G&G must ________. A.learn to give lectures B.attend education programs C.design a working ‎ uniform D.develop a common hobby 2.Willpower will become a habit when employees can _________. A.focus on the profits B.benefit from the job C.protect themselves well D.control their feeling well 3.What can we infer from the passage? A.G&G has grown into a large company. B.G&G will spend half its profits training employees. C.G&G may become more successful in the future. D.G&G has to produce more workbooks for managers. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 答案以及解析 ‎1答案及解析：‎ 答案： 1.C; 2.A; 3.A; 4.B 解析： 1.细节理解题。根据文章最后一句话Tabriz's job is as much about technological know-how(专门知识)as understanding the psychology of attackers.

When considering a merger(兼并), for example, they have traditionally used size to determine when to step in. They now need to take into account the extent of firms' data assets(资产) when assessing the impact of deals. ”可知,以前介入的标准是看公司的规模,而现在则应把数据资产的范围考虑在内。 4.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“...give more to those who supply them. Companies could be forced to reveal to consumers what information they hold and how much money they make from it. Governments... with users’ consent." 可知,大公司垄断数据信息,也不利于小公司更好地服务消费者,也不利于政府开展工作。弱化这种垄断将会给小公司带去更多的发展机会。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎7答案及解析：‎ 答案：1.A; 2.B; 3.D; 4.C ‎ ‎ ‎8答案及解析：‎ 答案： 1.B; 2.D; 3.C 解析： 1.文章介绍G&G公司的成功秘诀是让职员参加一个教育课程,从而获得自控力,使意志力成为习惯。细节题:根据第二段的第一句话:Travis picked up that lecture in one of his G&G training courses, an education program that began on his first day and continues throughout an employee's occupation.可知G&G公司的雇员从第一天就要开始上这个教育课程,而且是贯穿整个的工作,所以他们必须参加教育课程,所以选B。 2.细节题:根据第四段的第二个句子:"Sometimes it looks like people with great self-control aren't working hard—but that's because they've made it ‎ automatic,"有自控的人不要很努力就可以获得意志力,因为它们已经是自动的了,可知当职员能够控制他们的感情的时候,意志力就成为了习惯,所以选D。 3.推理题:根据文章最后一段的最后一句话:Those courses arc, in part, why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than $10 billion a year.可知G&G公司花了很多精力来训练职员的自控力,并一直发展很快,所以可以推断出以后会更加成功的,所以选C。 【长难句分析】Those courses are, in part, why G&G has grown from a sleepy company into a large one with more than seventeen thousand stores and profits of more than $10 billion a year.在某种程度上,那些课程是G&G由一个死气沉沉的公司发展成为一家拥有17,000多家商店,每年利润超过100亿美元的大公司的原因。该句为复合句。句中Those courses是主语,are是连系动词,why引导一个表语从句,从句中介词with引导的and并列的两个名词性短语用作定语。‎ ‎ ‎
