　　Ⅱ.阅读理解

　　Protect Your Online Reputation

　　Building a web site，launching a Twitter account，or writing a LinkedIn profile is vital for anyone trying to make a strong online presence.But having an online profile is just half of the game.After all，the Internet is not a one­way street.Sure，you control what you post on your own websites and online profiles，and a comment on your site or post on Facebook can be easily removed.But what about a blog authored by some angry reader?

　　“Nowadays，professional reputation is tied to online，”says Don Sorenson，CEO and founder of online reputation management firm Big Blue Robot.“And you can hardly imagine what people can write about you.I always talk about practicing how to manage your reputation.If you wait until you're in trouble，it's just too late.”

　　Owen Tripp，co­founder of the Redwood City，Calif­based_Reputation.com worked with one financial advisor whose client made an angry tweet about his investments not doing as well as the market，making the post instantly discoverable.The financial advisor was worried it would damage his reputation.

　　Maribeth Kuzmerski，founder of the Grayslake，Ill­based RedZone Marketing recalls one president of a big corporation whose own family member posed as a client，attacking his professional reputation until the negative content found its way into his top ten search results.Only after working hard to post positive comments and press releases about upcoming events were those negative posts be pushed back down.

　　People who believe reputation control is just for celebrities are kidding themselves.And those who believe they can avoid the problem by simply refusing to create their own online presence are in the dark.

　　“You have to decide how you want to be perceived when someone searches your name，”says Sorenson，“whether you are a potential employer，or a client，or a student.When you're looking at reputation management from a search engine viewpoint，it's primarily played on Google.And most people don't go past page one.”

　　Luckily there are steps people can take to actively manage how they appear on the web—from simple actions that can be set up in minutes，to those that require more investment of time.

　　【语篇解读】 本文讨论了在Facebook、Twitter等网络工具上保护个人名誉的问题。Facebook是一个社交网络服务网站，中文网名译为“脸谱网”，每天上载八百五十万张照片。Twitter也是一个社交网站，中文称“推特网”，提供微博客服务，允许用户将自己的最新动态和想法以短信形式发送给手机和个性化网站群。在Twitter上发布的信息叫Tweet。

　　1．The author believes that people might________on the Internet.

　　A．play half of the game

　　B．travel not just in one direction

　　C．have their reputation damaged

　　D．remove an angry reader's blog

　　解析　细节理解题。文章第一段开头讲述了建立网站或开通微博的优点：可以在网上树立自己强大的形象，接着用But转入主题，即网络是双向的，别人可能会在网络上发表不利于我们的信息。选项A和B是对文中game和one­way street的误读，选项D与文章不符。

　　答案　C

　　2．From the second paragraph，we can infer that Don Sorenson________.

　　A．establishes websites

　　B．operates a company

　　C．manages reputation

　　D．writes for Big Blue Robot

　　解析　推理判断题。第二段第一句说Don Sorenson创建了Big Blue Robot公司，而且是该公司的CEO，所以他负责这个公司的经营。A、C、D选项与文意不符。

　　答案　B

　　3．The author refers to Owen Tripp and Maribeth Kuzmerski as examples to show that________.

　　A．professional reputation is closely connected with online

　　B．professional people are worried about their reputation

　　C．negative content can be found in top ten search results

　　D．it's not easy to push negative posts back down

　　解析　推理判断题。作者在文章第二段开头提出了Nowadays professional reputation is tied to online的观点，接下来的第三和第四两个段落分别举例说明这个观点。B、C、D选项都符合文意，但都不是作者举Owen Tripp和Maribeth Kuzmerski的例子所想要说明的。

　　答案　A

　　4．The underlined word“perceived”in the 6th paragraph most probably means“________”．

　　A．ignored

　　B．dignified

　　C．discovered

　　D．identified

　　解析　词义猜测题。本文讲述的是在网络世界保护自己的名誉问题，所以，一个人的网络形象非常重要，也就是说，人们认为你是什么样的人很重要。ignored的意思是“被忽略的”，dignified意思是“有尊严的”，discovered意思是“被发现的”，都与上下文不符。

　　答案　D

　　5．The author writes this passage in order to________.

　　A．underline the importance of protecting online reputation

　　B．encourage people to build a website or launch a Twitter account

　　C．inform readers of the latest development in online activities

　　D．instruct readers on how to use search engines

　　解析　主旨大意题。本文第一段引出网络名誉的问题，第二段讲述了网络与人的名誉的关系，第三、四两段举例说明网络很容易使人的名誉受到伤害，最后讲到要致力于保护我们在网络上的名誉。所以，作者的写作意图很明显：要保护我们在网络上的名誉，B、C、D项都偏离了作者的写作意图。

　　答案　A

　　Ⅲ.阅读表达

　　阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

　　[1]If you're planning a trip to the United States, be very careful.You could easily break one of our laws and not know it.We're not talking about obviously illegal activities, like throwing a chair through your hotel window.No, there are other more diffcult­to­understand offences1 that could get you in trouble.

　　[2]When you visit Alabama, whatever you do, do not sprinkle salt on any railroad tracks.Not only is it against the law in that southern state—it's punishable by death.The law is real, at least according to warnings flying all over the Internet.We can't find the actual legal statement, though, so this is quite possibly one of those urban legends.

　　[3]Do you want to go whale hunting？Don't do it in Utah, where it's supposedly illegal.It doesn't matter that Utah is 1,500 kilometres from the nearest ocean：whale hunting is forbidden there.

　　[4]And be warned, you can't legally set a mousetrap2 in California without a hunting license, either.Tease a skunk3 in Minnesota, and they can send you to prison.

　　[5]You're probably saying, “If these silly old laws are real, why________？” Well, suppose you're on the town council in Waterville, Maine.You stand up and claim that it's high time to get rid of the law that makes it illegal to blow your nose in public.The voters in Waterville would drive you out of office for wasting time on such things.And a lot of old laws, if they really exist, have to do with religious beliefs and lovable animals, so some interest group would be sure to get involved if you made a fuss4.

　　[6]As for that salt­on­the­tracks law, we asked around to see why such a thing might have become law.It turns out that during the main period of railroad building in the nation, crews used to spread salt in the wintertime.Freezing mud that reached track level could derail5 a train, and rock salt kept the mud soft.The problem was that the salt attracted cattle, and hitting one of them could derail a train for sure.

　　Notes：

　　1．offence/əˈfens/n.违法行为；犯罪

　　2．mousetrap/ˈmaʊstræp/n.捕鼠器

　　3．skunk/skŋk/n.北美臭鼬

　　4．fuss/fs/n.(为小事)大吵大闹，大发牢骚

　　5．derail/dIˈreIl/v.使(火车)出轨

　　1．How does the author introduce the topic of the text？(no more than 4 words)

　　答案　By imagining a situation.

　　2．Fill in the blank in Paragraph 5 with proper words.(no more than 6 words)

　　_________________________________________________________________

　　答案　not get rid of them/don't they get rid of them

　　What activities may be seen as illegal in the United States, according to the text？(no more than 10 words)

　　①_______________________________________________________ in Utah

　　②___________________________________________________ in Minnesota

　　③___________________________________________________ in Waterville

　　答案　Whale hunting　Teasing a skunk　Blowing your nose in public

　　4．Why do many old laws exist in the United States？(no more than 12 words)

　　_________________________________________________________________

　　_________________________________________________________________

　　答案　Because they have something to do with religious beliefs and lovable animals.

　　5．What is the main topic of the last paragraph？(no more than 8 words)

　　_________________________________________________________________

　　答案　The reasoning behind the salt­on­the­tracks law./Why sprinkling salt on railroad tracks is illegal.
