A smart card is a card that is carried with either a microprocessor and a memory chip or only a
memory chip that is not programmable. The microprocessor card can add,delete, and deal with the
information on the card, while a memorychip card can only do one thing.
Smart cards, unlike magnetic stripe cards, can do many different things and hold a lot of information.
In this way, they do not need to get information from a faraway place when they are used.
Today, there are several kinds of smart cards, all of which are very popular in the market: IC
(Integrated Circuit) Microprocessor Cards (chip cards) offer a larger memory and better security
than the traditional magnetic stripe cards do. Chip cards can also hold data. These cards are used for
many things. Thus, chips have been the main platform for cards that hold a secure digital identity. Some
examples of these cards are:
Cards that hold money.
Cards that provide safe access to a network.
Cards that allow setting stop boxes on televisions to remain safe from privacy.
Optical Memory Cards look like cards with a piece of CD on the top. Optical memory cards can
store up to 4MB of data. But once written, the data cannot be changed or removed. Thus, this type
of card is good for keeping records, such as medical files, driving records or travel histories. Today,
these have no processors in them (although this is coming in the near future). While the cards are almost
as cheap as chip cards, the card readers are expensive.

| Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy.Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier,have better marriages and have more respectable occupations. Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs.Even judges are softer on attractive defendants(被告). But in the executive circle,beauty can become a liability. While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder,it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were thought as having more integrity than plainer men；effort and ability were thought to account for their success. Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones；their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female executives.Interestingly,though,the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes. Why are attractive women not thought to be able?An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine and an attractive man more masculine(有男子气概的)than the less attractive ones.Thus,an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs,but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the"masculine"qualities required. This is true even in politics."When the only clue is how he or she looks,people treat men and women differently,"says Anne Bowman,who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates.She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs,one of men and one of women,in order of attractiveness.The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices.They were asked to rank them again,in the order they would vote for them. The results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men,but the women who had been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes. 1. The underlined word "liability"(in Para.1)most probably means "________". A. misfortune B. instability C. disadvantage D. burden 2. In traditionally female jobs,attractiveness________. A. reinforces(加强)the feminine qualities required B. makes women look more honest and capable C. is of primary importance to women D. often enables women to succeed quickly 3. Bowman"s experiment reveals that when it comes to politics,attractiveness________. A. turns out to be an obstacle to men B. affects men and women alike C. has as little effect on men as on women D. is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women | ||||||||||||||

| 任务型阅读。 阅读下面短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。 注意:每个空格只填一个单词。 Celebrating sleep World Sleep Day, observed on 21 March, was created to bring attention to the growing number of sleep problems worldwide. Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modern world ignore its importance. As a result, sleep problems are increasingly common. In 2002, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece conducted a survey of over 35,000 people in 10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa. Of the people that responded to the survey, 24 percent said that they did not sleep well, and based on their responses, 31.6 percent were diagnosed with insomnia (失眠) and another 17.5 percent were diagnosed with borderline insomnia. In addition, 30.7 percent of survey respondents reported visiting a doctor for help with sleep problems and 11.6 percent said that they felt very sleepy during the day. Overall, the survey found that many people suffer from the effects of poor quality sleep, some examples of which are being unable to fall asleep and waking up in the middle of the night. The main factors causing these problems are pressure from school or work and a fast pace of life, but noise pollution and light pollution also interfere with sleep and contribute to poor quality sleep. The survey"s findings are particularly troubling because large numbers of people were found to have difficulty sleeping at night. The shortterm effects of this are tiredness and trouble concentrating. If this happens for a long time, the risk of gaining weight and having a heart attack may increase. There are many things you can do to improve the quality of your sleep. First, you should have regular sleep habits. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day. You also need to make your bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you. At night, you should also avoid things that contain caffeine, such as chocolate, coffee, tea and many soft drinks, as caffeine may keep you from sleeping. Getting a good night"s sleep is important for everyone. By following the advice above, you can rest better at night and work better during the day. Title: Celebrating Sleep
