Fourth, electronic means of paym

6、ent may 14 security and privacy concerns. We often hear media reports that an unauthorized hacker has been able to access a computer database and to alter information 15 there. The fact that this is not an 16 occurrence means that dishonest persons might be able to access bank accounts in electronic

7、 payments systems and 17 from someone elses accounts. The 18 of this type of fraud is no easy task, and a new field of computer science is developing to 19 security issues. A further concern is that the use of e lectronic means of payment leaves an electronic 20 that contains a large amount of perso

12、essay entitled “ Making It in America” , the author Adam Davidson relates a joke from cotton about just how much a modern textile mill has been automated: The average mill only two employees today,” a man and a dog. The man is there to feed the dog is there to keep the man away from the machines.” D

13、avidson s article is one of a number of pieces that have recently appeared making the point that the reason we have such stubbornly high unemployment and declining middle-class incomes today is also because of the advances in both globalization and the information technology revolution, which are mo

14、re rapidly than ever replacing labor with machines or foreign worker. In the past, workers with average skills, doing an average job, could earn an average lifestyle ,But ,today ,average is officially over. Being average just won t earn you what it used to. It can t when so many more employers have

15、so much more access to so much more above average cheap foreign labor, cheap robotics, cheap software, cheap automation and cheap genius. Therefore, everyone needs to find their extra-their unique value contribution that makes them stand out in whatever is their field of employment. Yes, new technol

16、ogy has been eating jobs forever, and always will. But there s been an acceleration. As Davidson notes,” In the 10 years ending in 2009, U.S. factories shed workers so fast that they erased almost all the gains of the previous 70 years; roughly one out of every three manufacturing jobs-about 6 milli

17、on in total -disappeared. There will always be changed-new jobs, new products, new services. But the one thing we know for sure is that with each advance in globalization and the I.T. revolution, the best jobs will require workers to have more and better education to make themselves above average. I

18、n a world where average is officially over, there are many things we need to do to support employment, but nothing would be more important than passing some kind of G.I.Bill for the 21st century that ensures that every American has access to poet-high school education. 21. The joke in Paragraph 1 is

19、 used to illustrate_ A the impact of technological advances B the alleviation of job pressure C the shrinkage of textile mills D the decline of middle-class incomes 22. According to Paragraph 3, to be a successful employee, one has to_ A work on cheap software B ask for a moderate salary C adopt an

20、average lifestyle D contribute something unique 23.

Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for the text? A New Law Take

22、s Effect B Technology Goes Cheap C Average Is Over D Recession Is Bad Text 2 A century ago, the immigrants from across the Atlantic inclued settlers and sojourners. Along with the many folks looking to make a permanent home in the United States came those who had no intention to stay, and 7millin pe

23、ople arrived while about 2 million departed. About a quarter of all Italian immigrants, for exanmle, eventually returned to Italy for good. They even had an affectionate nickname, “uccelli di passaggio,” birds of passage. Today, we are much more rigid about immigrants. We divide nemcomers into two c

24、ategories: legal or illegal, good or bad. We hail them as Americans in the making, or our broken immigrantion system and the long political paralysis over how to fix it. We don t need more categories, but we need to change the way we think about categories. We need to look beyond strick definitions

25、of legal and illegal. To start, we can recognize the new birds of passage, those living and thriving in the gray areas. We might then begin to solve our immigration challenges. Crop pickers, violinists, construction workers, entrepreneurs, engineers, home health-care aides and physicists are among t

26、oday s birds of passage. They are energetic participants in a global economy driven by the flow of work, money and ideas .They prefer to come and go as opportunity calls them , They can manage to have a job in one place and a family in another. With or without permission, they straddle laws, jurisdi

27、ctions and identities with ease. We need them to imagine the United States as a place where they can be productive for a while without committing themselves to staying forever. We need them to feel that home can be both here and there and that they can belong to two nations honorably. Accommodating

28、this new world of people in motion will require new attitudes on both sides of the immigration battle .Looking beyond the culture war logic of right or wrong means opening up the middle ground and understanding that managing immigration today requires multiple paths and multiple outcomes. Including

29、some that are not easy to accomplish legally in the existing system. 26 “ Birds of passage” refers to those who_ A immigrate across the Atlantic. B leave their home countries for good. C stay in a foregin temporaily. D find permanent jobs overseas. 27 It is implied in paragraph 2 that the current im

30、migration stystem in the US_ A needs new immigrant categories. B has loosened control over immigrants. C should be adopted to meet challenges. D has been fixeed via political means. 28 According to the author, today s birds of passage want_ A fiancial incentives. B a global recognition. C opportunit

31、ies to get regular jobs. D the freedom to stay and leave. 29 The author suggests that the birds of passage today should be treated _ A as faithful partners. B with economic favors. C with regal tolerance. D as mighty rivals. 30 选出最适合文章的标题 A come and go: big mistake. B living and thriving : great ris

32、k. C with or without : great risk. D legal or illegal: big mistake. Text 3 Scientists have found that although we are prone to snap overreactions, if we take a moment and think about how we are likely to react, we can reduce or even eliminate the negative effects of our quick, hard-wired responses.

33、Snap decisions can be important defense mechanisms; if we are judging whether someone is dangerous, our brains and bodies are hard-wired to react very quickly, within milliseconds. But we need more time to assess other factors. To accurately tell whether someone is sociable, studies show, we need at

34、 least a minute, preferably five. It takes a while to judge complex aspects of personality, like neuroticism or open-mindedness. But snap decisions in reaction to rapid stimuli aren t exclusive to the interpersonal realm. Psychologists at the University of Toronto found that viewing a fast-food logo

35、 for just a few milliseconds primes us to read 20 percent faster, even though reading has little to do with eating. We unconsciously associate fast food with speed and impatience and carry those impulses into whatever else were doing, Subjects exposed to fast-food flashes also tend to think a musica

36、l piece lasts too long. Yet we can reverse such influences. If we know we will overreact to consumer products or housing options when we see a happy face (one reason good sales representatives and real estate agents are always smiling), we can take a moment before buying. If we know female job scree

37、ners are more likely to reject attractive female applicants, we can help screeners understand their biases-or hire outside screeners. John Gottman, the marriage expert, explains that we quickly “ thin slice” information reliably only after we ground such snap reactions in “ thick sliced” long-term s

38、tudy. When Dr. Gottman really wants to assess whether a couple will stay together, he invites them to his island retreat for a muck longer evaluation; two days, not two seconds. Our ability to mute our hard-wired reactions by pausing is what differentiates us from animals: doge can think about the f

39、uture only intermittently or for a few minutes. But historically we have spent about 12 percent of our days contemplating the longer term. Although technology might change the way we react, it hasnt changed our nature. We still have the imaginative capacity to rise above temptation and reverse the h

40、igh-speed trend. 31. The time needed in making decisions may_. A vary according to the urgency of the situation B prove the complexity of our brain reaction C depend on the importance of the assessment D predetermine the accuracy of our judgment 32. Our reaction to a fast-food logo shows that snao d

41、ecisions_. A can be associative B are not unconscious C can be dangerous D are not impulsive 33. Toreverse the negative influences of snap decisions,we should_. A trust our first impression B do as people usually do C think before we act D ask for expert advice 34. John Gottman says that reliable sn

42、ap reaction are based on_. A critical assessment B thin sliced study C sensible explanation D adequate information 35. The author s attitude toward reversing the high-speed trend is_. A tolerant B uncertain C optimistic D doubtful Text 4 Europe is not a gender-equality heaven.In particular, the corp

43、orate workplace will never be completely family friendly until women are part of senior management decisions,and Europe,s top corporate-governance positions remain overwhelmingly male .indeed,women hold only 14 percent of positions on Europe corporate boards. The Europe Union is now considering legi

44、slation to compel corporate boards to maintain a certain proportion of women-up to 60 percent.This proposed mandate was born of frustration. Last year, Europe Commission Vice President Viviane Reding issued a call to voluntary action. Reding invited corporations to sign up for gender balance goal of

45、 40 percent female board membership. But her appeal was considered a failure: only 24 companies took it up. Do we need quotas to ensure that women can continue to climb the corporate Ladder fairy as they balance work and family? “ Personally, I don t like quotas,” Reding said recently. “ But i like

46、what the quotas do.” Quotas get action: they “ open the way to equality and they break through the glass ceiling,” according to Reding, a result seen in France and other countries with legally binding provisions on placing women in top business positions. I understand Reding s reluctance-and her fru

47、stration. I don t like quotas either; they run counter to my belief in meritocracy, government by the capable. Bur, when one considers the obstacles to achieving the meritocratic ideal, it does look as if a fairer world must be temporarily ordered. After all, four decades of evidence has now shown that corporations in Europe as the US are evading the meritocratic hiring and promotion of women to top position no matter how much “ soft pressure ” is put upon them. When women do break through to the summit of corporate power-as, for example, Sheryl Sandberg rece
