　　二、阅读理解

　　A

　　A San Diego boy

　　Kristoffer Von Hassel has attracted the gaming world's attention after he exposed a security weakness that let him log into his dad's Xbox Live account, without permission.

　　Kristoffer's father, Robert, noticed soon after Christmas that his son was logging into his account and playing games that weren't appropriate for his age. When he was asked how, Kristoffer showed him a hack that seems simple but is fairly impressive considering a 5­year­old boy found it.

　　Kristoffer would go to his dad's account and type in an incorrect password. That would take him to a password verifications screen, where he would simply tap the space bar repeatedly and then press

　　“Enter”．

　　“How awesome that is！” said Davies, who works in online security himself.

　　“Just being 5 years old and being able to find a vulnerability and getting attached to that.

　　I thought that was pretty cool.”

　　He told KGTV that Kristoffer has figured out three or four other

　　“hacks”， including getting past the lock on a smartphone by holding down the

　　“home”

　　key for long enough.

　　Davies reported the vulnerability to Microsoft. And Microsoft acted, issuing a fix for it.

　　“We're always listening to our customers and thank them for bringing issues to our attention，”

　　the company said in a written statement.

　　“We took security seriously at Xbox and fixed the issue as soon as we learned about it.”

　　The company has even included Kristoffer's name on a list of security researchers who have helped make online Microsoft products safer.

　　For his discovery, or more. accurately, for reporting it with his father's help, Kristoffer will receive four games, $ 50 and a year's subscription to Xbox Live from Microsoft.

　　这是一篇资讯报道。一个五岁的圣地亚哥男孩引起了游戏界的关注，因为他竟在不知道密码的情况下使用父亲的账号成功地登录了Xbox Live游戏平台，从而暴露了微软公司的一个安全漏洞，对此微软公司及时地进行了修复和处理。

　　1．Why did a San Diego boy attract the gaming world's attention?

　　A. He is a security researcher.

　　B. He designed a new software.

　　C. He is addicted to playing games.

　　D.

　　He got past the lock of a game.

　　答案　D

　　解析　细节理解题。根据第一、二段的内容可知，一个五岁的圣地亚哥男孩引起了游戏界的关注，因为他在不知道密码的情况下成功地登录了父亲的游戏账号，从而暴露了微软公司的一个安全漏洞，因此选择D。

　　2．The main idea of Paragraph 3 is how Kristoffer

　　.

　　A. logged into his dad's Xbox account

　　B. managed to set his own password

　　C. learned to gain access to the game

　　D. played computer games on his own

　　答案　A

　　解析　段落大意题。第三段介绍了Kristoffer在登录父亲的游戏账号时输入不正确的密码，然后在进行密码确认时，他仅仅重复地敲击空格键后按回车键就成功地登录了父亲的账号，所以该段主要介绍了Kristoffer如何登录父亲的游戏账号，应选择A。

　　3．What is Microsoft's attitude to the problem reported by Davies?

　　A. Critical and negative.

　　B. Friendly and sympathetic.

　　C. Serious and responsible.

　　D. Cold and casual.

　　答案　C

　　解析　观点态度题。根据倒数第二段中的”And Microsoft acted, issuing a fix for it”及“We took security seriously at Xbox and fixed the issue as soon as we learned about it”可知，微软公司对Davies报告的问题采取了认真负责的态度，对漏洞进行了及时的修复。因此选择C。

　　4．The underlined word

　　“vulnerability” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to

　　.

　　A. security failing

　　B

　　system protection

　　C. system accident

　　D. data fault

　　答案　A

　　解析　词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“after he exposed a security weakness”并结合画线词所在的句子可知，ulnerability应指安全漏洞，因此选择A。

　　B

　　The crowd at the airport flowed forward. The passengers had been waiting for a couple of hours for an airline employee to open the door leading to the plane outside. No one was in a good mood. An old man got trapped in the middle of the rush. He fell down without being able to break his fall. His head hit the concrete floor. Blood poured from his forehead. He appeared to be unconscious. Everyone rushed past him, except Dana. She called for help.

　　A minute later, a young airline employee showed up. Hardly looking at the old man, she told Dana to get aboard her plane. She said the old man would be okay, and walked away.

　　Dana screamed for help. An airport supervisor appeared. He told Dana to get on the plane. Dana said that she was not moving until an ambulance arrived. The supervisor said her plane would leave without her. Dana said that she didn't care.

　　An ambulance and two attendants finally arrived. The attendants said that the man would be okay, but he would need stitches(缝线).

　　They put him into the ambulance and drove off.

　　On her way to the plane, which was still refueling, Dana saw the employee who had ignored the old man at first. The employee said, “ You're lucky. The plane didn't leave without you”．

　　“The plane？”

　　Dana asked.

　　“Who cares about the plane? How could you be so cold? That was an old man; he could have been your grandfather! How would you like it if everyone just stepped over your grandfather and went on their way？”

　　这是一篇记叙文。机场准备登机的人群把一位老人撞倒了，在这个时候，故事的主人公出现了，她一直等到救护车来了之后才上飞机，并斥责了机场工作人员的冷漠。

　　5．What does the story mainly tell us about Dana?

　　A. She works as a young airline employee.

　　B. She was waiting for a plane with her grandfather.

　　D. She knows how to do first aid to an old man.

　　答案　C

　　解析　细节理解题。从故事的发展看，那位老人在人群中被撞倒之后只有Dana关心这位不省人事的老人，机场的工作人员、管理者都只管催她赶紧上飞机，因此选C。

　　6．From the story, we know that

　　.

　　A. Dana finally took the plane on time with the help of a young airline employee

　　B. the old man knew it was Dana who helped him from beginning to end

　　C. people at the airport were too cold to care about others at that time

　　D. an airport supervisor ordered the plane not to leave without Dana

　　答案　C

　　解析　细节理解题。无论是乘客还是机场的工作人员和管理者都没有关心老人的情况，因此选C。

　　7．The character of Dana may best be described as

　　.

　　A. pessimistic

　　B. optimistic

　　C. punctual

　　D. sympathetic

　　答案　D

　　解析　推理判断题。老人摔倒后只有Dana停下脚步，宁可赶不上飞机也要等到救护车前来救助老人，由此推断她很有同情心。

　　答案与解析　

　　作者与妻子约定七点在餐馆就餐，但是作者的迟到以及解释让彼此产生误解。向朋友描述了这种情况后，朋友指出了问题所在。 于是作者开始理解妻子。

　　1．B　根据上文可知，作者和妻子约定一起吃饭，所以他们是达成一致意见，7点在饭店见面。agree to do“一致同意做……”。

　　2．A　根据下文的I had a good excuse，可知，作者感到有点宽慰的是，他有个很好的借口，故选A。

　　3．D　根据上文可知，作者有个好借口，因为一个商业会议超时了，而作者没有浪费时间，故选D。

　　4．C　根据上文We had

　　1

　　to meet at the restaurant at seven o'clock可知。

　　5．A　作者能分辨出他的妻子生气了。could合语境。

　　6．D　根据下文，作者告诉妻子关于这个商业会议的事情，以为迟到是不可避免的。故选D。

　　7．A　根据下文内容，作者的解释让事情更糟，所以和前面句子是转折关系。

　　8．C　根据上文，可知作者的迟到让妻子很生气，而且他的解释让事情更糟，这也使作者快要发疯了。因为用了as well，所以不是作者的妻子，而是需要代词指代作者本人。9．D　根据句意：几个星期后，我将这件事描述给朋友Ken Hardy，故选D。

　　10．B　make a mistake固定搭配“犯错误”。

　　11．A　be stuck in固定搭配“卡住，陷入”。

　　12．D　根据第二段可知，作者认为自己不是故意这么做的，所以用intend和mean意思相近。

　　13．B　根据上句：那并不是重点，你们的谈话中重要的是你的迟到是怎么影响Eleanor的，所以选B。

　　14．A　他指出作者的重点是意图，而Eleanor的重点是结果，这两种话是表示转折关系，所以选A。

　　15．C　根据上文可知作者和妻子两个人理解的重点不一样，所以两个人都感觉被误解而疯狂，所以选C。

　　16．D　句意：多思考Ken的话，我逐渐意识到这种分歧的根源，所以选D。

　　17．B　真正重要的是行动的结果。matter意为“要紧，有关系”。

　　18．A　根据上文可知行动的结果更重要，所以作者应该开始对话，表达自己的行为对妻子有怎样的影响，选A。

　　19．D　根据上文可知作者本应该表达自己的行为对妻子有怎样的影响。所以应该省去解释自己迟到的意图以后再说，或者永远不要说。

　　20．C　根据上文提到了misunderstood，可以知道作者通过和妻子的交谈真的理解了她对于我迟到的结果的体验，故选C。
