For each of them the re are four choices marked A), B), c) and D). You should choose the best choice Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage: More and more, the operations of our businesses, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap substantial rewards. Even worse, a numbe of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment. It's easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it's disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may be the victims of uncommonly bad luck. For example, a certain keypunch(键盘打孔) operator complained of having to stay overtime to punch extra cards. Investigation revealed that the extra cards he was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off(向……透露) the company that was being robbed. Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled(/ F)the most confidential records right under the noses of the company's executives, accountants, and security staff. And so another computer 41. It can be concluded from the passage er s he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere criminal departs with just the recommendation A)it is still impossible to detect computer crimes today B)computer crimes are the most serious problem in the operation of financial institutions C)computer criminals can escape punishment because they can't be detected D) people commit computer crimes at the request their company 42. It is implied in the third paragraph that A)many more computer crimes go undetected than are discovered B)the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problem C) most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimes D)most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their bad luck 43. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage? A)Astrict law against computer crimes must be enforced B)Companies need to impose restrictions on confidential information

And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere. 41. It can be concluded from the passage that __________. A) it is still impossible to detect computer crimes today B) computer crimes are the most serious problem in the operation of financial institutions C) computer criminals can escape punishment because they can't be detected D) people commit computer crimes at the request their company 42.

We live in a consumer society where there is an enormous demand for commercial products of all kinds Moreover, an increase in industrial production is considered to be one solution to the problem of mass unemployment. Such an increase presumes an abundant and cheap energy supply. Many people believe that nuclear energy provides an inexhaustible and economical source of power and that it is therefore essential for an industrially developing society. There are a number of other dvantages in the use of nuclear energy. Firstly, nuclear power, except for accidents, is clean. A further advantage is that a nuclear power station can be run and maintained by relatively few technical and administrative staff. The nuclear reactor represents an enormous step ientific evolution and, whatever the anti-nuclear group says, it is wrong to expect a return to more primitive sources of fuel. However, opponents of nuclear energy point out that nuclear wer stations bring a direct threat not only to the environment but also to civil liberties Furthermore, it is questionable whether ultimately nuclear power is a cheap source of energy There have, for example, been very costly accidents in America, in Britain and, of course, in Russia. The possibility of increases in the cost of uranium( th) in addition to the cost of greater safety provisions could p rice nuclear power out of the market. In the long run, environmentalists argue, nuclear energy wastes valuable resources and disturbs the ecology to an extent which could bring about the destruction of the human race. Thus, if we wish to survive, we cannot afford nuclear energy. In spite of the case against nuclear energy outlined above, nuclear energy programmes are expanding. Such an expansion assumes a continual growth in industrial production and consumer demands. However, it is doubtful whether this growth will or can continue. Having weighed up the arguments on both sides, it seems there are good economic and ecological reasons for sources of energy other than nuclear power 46. The writer's attitude toward nuclear energy is A)indifferent B)favorable C)tolerant 47. According to the opponents of nuclear energy, which of the following is true of nuclear energy? A)Primitive B)Exhaustible C)Cheap D)Un 48. Some people claim that nuclear energy is essential because A)it provides a perfect solution to mass unemployment
C) Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputation D) Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes. 44. What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught? A) With a bad reputation they can hardly find another job. B) They will be denied access to confidential records. C) They may walk away and easily find another job. D) They must leave the country or go to jail. 45. The passage is mainly about __________. A) why computer crimes are difficult to detect by systematic inspections. B) why computer criminals are often able to escape punishment C) how computer criminals manage to get good recommendation from their former employers D) why computer crimes can't be eliminated Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage: It is often claimed that nuclear energy is something we cannot do without.

They tell us a good deal about the wearer's background, personality, status, mood, and social outlook Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to manipulate people's impression of us. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the initial phases of interaction that is likely to occur. An elderly middle-class man or woman may be alienated(疏远……) by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the persons education, background, or interests People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits(E*), including the number of boyfriends they likely have had and whether they smoke or d rink. Newscasters, or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more convincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conservatively. And collage students who view them selves as taking an active role in their inter personal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can relate instances in which the clothing we wore changed the way we felt about ourselves and how we acted. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you anticipated a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance. In the workplace, men have long had well-defined precedents and role models for achieving success. It has been otherwise for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain about the appropriate mixture of"masculine"an d"feminine"attributes they should convey by their professional clothing. The variety of clothing alternatives to women has also beer greater than that available for men.
