第二部分 阅读理解(满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
People often feel anonymous (匿名) on the Internet. They believe their browsing behaviors and what 21.(6分)
they buy or write can be private as they want. In fact, that’s far from true, a new study finds.
Websites usually offer a statement that describes what they may or may not do with data about a user’s activities. You might be attracted to read through that entire document. But be prepared for disappointment. These documents tend to list only a small part of the websites which are allowed to have access to your data. Therefore, it’s impossible for users to make informed judgments about how private their online activities are.
The new research explored the disclosure on data-sharing by 200, 000 websites. These included the Arkansas state government homepage and the Country Music site. The study analyzed how these sites shared data with third parties. Such recipients of your data could be advertisers or companies that make money by selling personal data. The study also examined how those sites had described their policy for protecting the data privacy.
Timothy Libert, who works at Oxford University, studies data privacy. For this analysis, he used a software tool called webXray. It tracked 1.8 million data shared by each of those websites with third-party data collectors. Only 14.8% of those data went to third parties that were named in the sites privacy policies.
Data that were transferred to widely familiar third parties—Google, Facebook and Twitter—were more likely to be leaked than those were transferred to unknown parties. Libert found that 38.3% of data sent to Google had been leaked.
Even if a website listed all of the third parties it shared your data with, users still might never learn how widely their data had been shared. Why? Third parties that receive data can later share those data again. Think of your data now being transmitted to anonymous fourth and fifth parties. Getting online is “sort of like throwing beans in the air,” Libert concludes. “There’s no way to know where your data end up.” 1、What aspect of the websites statements will disappoint people? A.The length of the documents. C.The readability of the contents.
B.The reliability of the information. D.The accuracy of the language.
2、What does the underlined word “disclosure” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Reveal. C.Disappointment.
3、What did Libert find in his study?
A.More than a quarter of data-sharing went to unnamed third parties. B.The data on the Internet is always kept secret by third parties. C.Widely familiar third parties could collect users’ data more difficultly. D.Widely familiar third parties were more likely to leak out users’ online data. 4、What is the best title for the text? A.Famous websites are no longer safe
B.Money. D.Advertisement.
B.Private data can no longer be private C.Data-sharing is becoming very unpopular
D.Large companies make money by selling personal data
22.(8分)Instagram is containing so many photos of food---now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks. I always thought people's taking pictures of their food was kind of silly, but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK, I'd probably do it too. “The Picture House” is the world's first pay-by-photo restaurant—you order, click a photo of the food, share on Instagram and eat for free!
The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant (巨人)Birds Eye, who came up with the idea to cash in on people’s addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online. They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals. So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.
The pop-up diner was open in Soho, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don't have to pay for, if they photo and Instagram it.
The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for Life,” campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. “Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special,” said marketing director Margaret Jobling.
The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far. And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year, in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat. 1、Instagram probably is_______________.
A.a restaurant free of charge B.a campaign of “Food for Life” C.a new marketing project D.a program used to share photos
2、“The Picture House” encourages sharing photos of its food to_____________. A.raise the price of frozen food B.attract more customers C.create a new social media trend D.reward the regular customers 3、Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage? A.No Need to Pay. B.The Pop-up Diner. C.Pay by Picture. D.Food for Life
23.(8分) At the age of seven, while his friends were spending their allowances on things like candy and toys, Jose Adolfo Quisocola was busy saving money for basic purchases. To try to get his peers(同 龄 人 ) to do the same,
the boy from Peru came up with the idea of an eco-bank, the Bartselana
Student Bank, which allows kids of all ages to become financially independent while also helping the environment. Set up in 2012, the bank is the world’s first bank for kids. To become a member, a kid has to bring in at least 5 kilograms of solid waste and set a savings goal. Once accepted, all bank “partners” are required to deposit at least one additional kilogram of recyclables on a monthly basis and observe other requirements, such as attending financial education and environmental management workshops.
The waste accumulated is sold to local recycling companies, who, thanks to Jose’s efforts, pay a
higher-than-market rate for everything brought in by the bank members. The money received is placed in the personal account where they collect until the savings goal is reached. The account holder can then withdraw the money, or choose to leave it and continue to grow for a bigger target. “At the beginning, my teachers thought I was crazy or that a child could not undertake this type of project,” Jose recalls, “They did not understand that we are not the future of the country but its present. Luckily, I had the support of the school headmaster and an assistant in my class.”
The boy’s efforts paid off, and by 2013, the bank had over 200 members, who brought in one ton of recyclable waste. Today, the eco-bank, which now has the support of several local institutions, boasts ten educational centers. They are designed to teach the over 3,000 students, aged 10 to 18 , to become financially independent, use their money wisely, and help the environment.
Not surprisingly, Jose’s efforts have earned him several national and international awards. On November 20, 2018, Jose won Children’s Climate Prize, which comes with a medal and $5,500 in prize money and is given to a child or youth who has accomplished an extraordinary achievement for the climate or environment. 1、Why did Jose set up the bank?
A.To raise money and set up a recycling company. B.To buy necessities and donate them to needy kids. C.To save much money and protect the environment. D.To educate the students and help them win prizes. 2、How can a kid be admitted to the eco-bank? A.By donating to the eco-bank.
B.By turning in one kilogram of waste in a month. C.By sending in an application.
D.By presenting a goal and a certain amount of waste. 3、How did the teachers feel about Jose’s program? A.Doubtful.
B.Excited.
C.Moved.
4、What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A.How the environment is improved. C.How tons of waste has been recycled.
D.Worried.
B.What the project has achieved. D.What support the local institutions get.
24.(8分)A bite from a tsetse fly is an extremely unpleasant experience. To make matters worse, several species of tsetse fly can transmit diseases. One of the most dangerous is a parasite(寄生虫) that causes \"sleeping sickness\".
After the initial bite, sleeping sickness symptoms often start with a fever, headaches and aching muscles. As the illness goes on, those infected become increasingly tired, which is where it gets its name.
It is worth noting that sleeping sickness is no longer as deadly as it once was. In the early 20th Century several hundred thousand people were infected each year. By the 1960s the disease was considered \"under control\" and had reached very low numbers, making its spread more difficult. But in the 1970s there was another major infection, which took 20 years to control. Since then, better screening programs and earlier treatments have reduced the number of cases dramatically. In 2000 this figure dropped to fewer than 3,000. The World Health Organization (WHO) hopes the disease will be completely removed by 2020. More problematically, a series of new studies have shown that the parasite is more complicated than previously believed.
Sleeping sickness has always been considered—and analyzed—as a blood disease, because the parasites can readily be discovered in the blood of its victims. However, in a recent study found that the parasite can stay in the skin and fat, as well as in the blood. There may even be a higher density(密度)of the parasite in the skin than in the blood. That means a person can have no symptoms but still both harbor the disease and spread it. The finding could explain the mysterious 1970s infection, and why the disease can spring up in areas that had previously been cleared. 1、What's the danger of a tsetse fly bite?
A.It makes people sleepy. B.It causes skin disease. C.It brings about deaths. D.It transmits deadly parasites. 2、What can we infer about sleeping sickness from Paragraph 3? A.It's still a threat to human health. B.It's not that dangerous at present. C.It's incurable in the early 20th century. D.It's completely under control in the 1960s.
3、What does the underlined \"harbor\" most probably mean? A.carry B.resist C.exchange D.hide
4、What does the latest research indicate according to the passage?
A.Sleeping sickness is a blood disease.
B.Skin is more suitable for the parasite to grow. C.Sleeping sickness can be spread with no signs. D.Parasites in the skin caused the 1970s infection.
25.(10分) 3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to create things we need very quickly and easily using 3D printers. But can you imagine printing food?
Some scientists are trying to revolutionize the dining experience by doing this. They hope that having a 3D printer in the kitchen will be as common as the microwave oven or blender.
Scientists say that it’ll be quite easy: you simply have to select a recipe and put the raw food ‘inks’ into the printer. You can also modify the instructions to make the food exactly how you want it. This means that it would be very quick and easy to create tasty and nutritious meals.
Using 3D printers to create your meals would also be saving the environment. There would be less need for traditional growing, transporting and packaging processes as food production would be a lot more efficient. For example, alternative ingredients(原料) such as proteins from algae, beetroot leaves and insects could be converted into tasty products.
Printing food could also help people who suffer from dysphasia (a swallowing disorder). They could program the printer to print softer versions of their favorite foods so that they would not have trouble in swallowing them.
However, some people think that a future of 3D food printing would be a disaster. It could take away many jobs, including those fro growing, transporting and packaging food. Imagine a world where there was no need for farming or growing crops and the same tastes could be printed from a raw “food ink”. Likewise, traditional cafes and restaurants might lose business. Also, there are concerns about the nutritional value of printed food: is it really possible to be get the nutrients we need from food –based inks and gels(凝胶)?
What’s more , cooking and eating together with family and friends has long been a traditional and enjoyable activity. It is hard to imagine a world where the pleasure of cooking is dead and meals can be created at the touch of a button.
1、Which of the following best describes 3D food printing? A.Quick and popular. B.Easy and efficient. C.Nutritious and tasty. D.Soft and convenient.
2、Why do some think that 3D food printing would be a disaster?
A.Traditional food would disappear. B.Many people could lose their jobs. C.It would affect the people’s health. D.We could all eat the same food.
3、What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.3D food printing will replace traditional cooking. B.The future of 3D food printing is uncertain. C.It would hurt our tradition of food culture. D.3D food printing would be a failure.
4、Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A.3D food “printing”: coming to the kitchen B.Can 3D printing create everything? C.3D—printing food will be in fashion! D.The disadvantage of 3D food printing
