阅读理解     Someday a stranger will read your e­mail without your permission or scan the websites you"ve visited. 
Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find 
out your shopping preferences or calling habits.     
     In fact, it"s likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without 
your permission? It might be a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a policeman or a criminal. 
Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen—the 21st century equal to being 
caught naked(裸露的).     
     Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, though it"s important to reveal(透露) yourself to friends, 
family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. Actually few boundaries remain.
     The digital breadcrumbs(面包屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct 
who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what 
you think, like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.     
     The key question is:Does that matter? For many Americans, the answer apparently is "no".     
When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey 
found a majority of people are pessimistic about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they 
feel their privacy is "slipping away, and that bothers me".     
     But people say one thing and do another.  Only a small part of Americans change any  behaviors in 
an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths(收费亭) to avoid 
using the EZ­Pass system that can track(跟踪) automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket 
loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquits has run a series of tests that reveal people will 
submit personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50­cents­off 
coupon(优惠券).      
     But privacy does matter at least sometimes. It"s like health; when you have it, you don"t notice it. 
Only when it"s gone do you wish you"d done more to protect it. 1.What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends? A. There should be a distance even between friends.
B. There should be fewer quarrels between friends.
C. Friends should always be faithful to each other.
D. Friends should open their hearts to each other. 2.Why does the author say "we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret"?A. There are always people who are curious about others" affairs.
B. Many search engines profit by revealing people"s identities.
C. People leave traces around when using modern technology.
D. Modern society has finally developed into an open society. 3.What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection? A. They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.
B. They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it. 
C. They rely more and more on electronic equipment. 
D. They use various loyalty cards for business deals. 4.What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection? A. They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.
B. They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it. 
C. They rely more and more on electronic equipment. 
D. They use various loyalty cards for business deals.

举一反三
阅读理解     BELIEVE it or not, the color of the tie Barack Obama wore to the inauguration (就职典礼) is now
a hotly debated topic.The level of public interest in Obama"s tie might seem strange but many people
believe his choice will symbolize the type of government he plans to run, as the color of a politician"s tie
is thought to convey ideas of power, trustworthiness and more.
     Polities of ties
     It may be the least practical item of male dress, but it is arguably the most expressive.In the UK and
many other countries around the world, conservative (保守的) politicians may wear a blue tie and their
liberal opponents a red one.In America, the colors go the other way round.The Republicans have in
recent years become associated with the color red, and the Democrats with blue.But in spite of this,
Bush wears blue ties more often than any other color.
     What they mean
     According to Sharon Haver, editor of focusonstyle.com, in America the feelings associated with
colors overrule their political significance."A guy who wants to be regarded as strong and in charge
would wear red, " Haver says.Unsurprisingly, the business tycoon Donald Trump is known for wearing
red ties.But what about blue?According to Haver, "Blue is a softer color...Look at the sky.It"s peaceful
and calm and trustworthy."
     Selecting the right tie for the right occasion
     Perfect job interview tie
     Perhaps no other tiewearing occasion is as important as the job interview.Gilchrist, the fashion expert,
advises playing it safe and choosing a conservative one.Best choices are solids, stripes or small patterns.
An excellent color is burgundy (深红色) or another serious color.Avoid pink or yellow, which suggests
that the wearer lacks gravity.
     Pattern ties, Gilchrist suggests, should be limited to a maximum of three colors.A striped tie is a safe
choice as this is acceptable to everyone.Last, Gilchrist recommends saving the expensive "hip" tie for
those applying for glamorous creative jobs.
    Datenight tie
     When picking out the right tie for taking a girl out on a date, spend more time considering color than
pattern.According to studies, women are attracted to men wearing the color blue, because blue gives the
image of a "stable, faithful, constant, always there" person.So what is the worst color to wear on a date?
"Flattened caterpillar (毛虫) yellowgreen, " according  to Gilchrist, "it will repel both sexes equally."1. Why are people interested in the tie that Obama wore to the inauguration?A. Because they think the tie he wore will enable them to know about his personalities and policies.
B. Because they want to advise him how to select an appropriate tie for such a big occasion.
C. Because they think the tie will tell if he is trustworthy as they expected when he assumes office.
D. Because they believe the tie is an essential part of dressing to a mature politician like Obama.2. What can we infer about Bush, the former president, from the passage?A. He was probably liberal in his policies when he was in power.
B. He was a Republican when he served as president.
C. He wore only blue ties and had no ties of alternative colors.
D. He wanted to make himself unique by the tie that he wore.3. The example of "the business tycoon Donald Trump" is given to________.A. prove that color reflects people"s feelings to a certain degree
B. show that Donald is so wealthy that he can afford expensive ties
C. tell that Donald is physically strong and can handle everything
D. explain that red is a popular color, especially with businessmen4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. Ties can be ignored by politicians since they are the least practical item of male dress.
B. Do choose ties carefully before dating, because it is the most important occasion.
C. Why to avoid pink or yellow ties in job interviews is that they don"t match the atmosphere.
D. The more colorful the tie is, the more likely you"ll get the job you want.

阅读理解     Have you ever thought about what determines the way we are when we grow up?Remember the
TV program Seven Up?It started following the lives of a group of children in 1973.We first meet them
as wideeyed sevenyearolds and catch up with them at sevenyear intervals: nervous 14yearolds, serious
21yearolds and then grownups.
     Some of the stories are inspiring, others sad, but what is interesting in almost all the cases is the way
in which the children"s early hopes and dreams are shown in their future lives.For example, at seven,
Tony is a lively child who says he wants to become a sportsman or a taxi driver.When he grows up, he
goes on to do both.How about Niki?She says, "I would like to find out about the moon." And she goes
on to become a space scientist.As a child, softspoken Bruce says he wants to help "poor children" and
ends up teaching in India.
     But if the lives of all the children had followed this pattern, the program would be far less interesting
than it actually was.It was the children whose childhood did not prepare them for what was to come that
made the program so interesting.Where did their ideas come from about what they wanted to do when
they grew up?Are children influenced by what their parents do, by what they see on television or by
what their teachers say?How great is the effect of a single important event?Many film directors, including
Steven Spielberg, say that an early visit to the cinema was the turning point in their lives.Dr Margaret
McAllister, who has done a lot of research in this area, thinks that the major factors are parents, friends
and their wider society.1. What does the text mainly discuss?A. New ways to make a TV program interesting.
B. The importance of TV programs to children.
C. Different ways to make childhood dreams come true.
D. The influence of childhood experience on future lives.2. What does the underlined word "influenced" mean in the last paragraph?A. Impressed.  
B. Improved.
C. Affected.  
D. Attracted.3. What are the examples in Paragraph 2 meant to show?A. Many people"s childhood hopes are related to their future jobs.
B. There are many poor children in India who need help.
C. Children have different dreams about their future.
D. A lot of people are very sad in their childhood.4. Spielberg"s story is meant to show that________.A. going to a movie at an early age helps a child learn about society
B. a single childhood event may decide what one does as a grownup
C. parents and friends can help a child grow up properly
D. films have more influence on a child than teachers do

     Flying across the globe,whether on business or for leisure,is usually effortless-you just have to
book your ticket,pack your bags and show up at the airport with your passport.You board the
plane and several cocktails and movies later,you arrive at your destination.People are becoming
more aware of their smart travel.Here are some tips on how to be a clever traveler.
Easy checkin
     Avoid the queue and check yourself in by using the MAS Web CheckIn (malaysiaairlines.
com) in the comfort of your own home or office.Passengers can now check in online anytime
from 24 hours to 90 minutes ahead of the scheduled departure time (出发时间).This is
available for flights departing from all MAS stations-except Paris,Kunming,Xiamen and Bandar
Seri Begawan-to all MAS destinations.You can even select preferred seats online.
Bag hygiene (卫生)
     No,we"re not talking about the cleanliness of your bags!It"s aviation talk for a bag that doesn"t
carry any old baggage tags (标签) with barcodes (条码) that could confuse the baggage sensor
(探测装置).
If you find yourself arriving in Sydney while your bag lands in Tokyo,it could be because of your
old baggage tag.Another reason why bags go missing could be the printing quality of the barcodes;
bags are misdirected because the sensors can"t read the codes correctly.
Less is more
     Most airports around the world now set a weight limit of 32kg per piece of baggage.This will not
only help protect the airline workers" health,it will also be easier for you to carry your bags around.
Avoid packing dangerous goods or placing valuables inside your checkin luggage.Ensure that locks
are properly secured as a lot of baggage locks are found caught between the conveyor belts.
Smaller and softer bags are usually placed inside a tray at checkin to protect the locks from contact
with the conveyor belt.
