The Internet affords anonymity to its users, a blessing to privacy and freedom of speech. But that very anonymity is also behind the explosion of cyber-crime that has 1 across the Web.

Can privacy be preserved 2 bringing safety and security to a world that seems increasingly 3?

Last month, Howard Schmidt, the nation’s cyber-czar, offered the federal government a 4 to make the web a safer place—a “voluntary trusted identity” system that would be the high-tech 5 of a physical key, a fingerprint and a photo ID card, all rolled 6 one. The system might use a smart identity card, or a digital credential 7 to a specific computer, and would authenticate users at a range of online services.

The idea is to 8 a federation of private online identity systems. Users could 9 which system to join, and only registered users whose identities have been authenticated could navigate those systems. The approach contrasts with one that would require an Internet driver’s license 10 by the government.

Google and Microsoft are among companies that already have these “single sign-on” systems that make it possible for users to 11 just once but use many different services.

12, the approach would create a walled garden ’’ in cyberspace, with safe neighborhoods “and bright streetlights” to establish a sense of a 13 community.

Mr. Schmidt described it as a “voluntary ecosystem” in which “individuals and organizations can complete online transactions with 14, trusting the identities of each other and the identities of the infrastructure 15 which the transaction runs.”

Still, the administration’s plan has 16 privacy rights activists. Some applaud the approach ; others are concerned. It seems clear that such a scheme is an initiative push toward what would 17 be a compulsory Internet “driver’s license” mentality.

The plan has also been greeted with 18 by some computer security experts, who worry that the “ voluntary ecosystem” envisioned by Mr. Schmidt would still leave much of the Internet 19 They argue that all Internet users should be 20 to register and identify themselves, in the same way that drivers must be licensed to drive on public roads.

Millions of Americans and foreigners see G. I. Joe as a mindless war toy, the symbol of American military adventurism, but that’s not how it used to be. To the men and women who 1 in World War II and the people they liberated, the G. I. was the 2 man grown into hero, the poor farm kid tom away from his home, the guy who 3 all the burdens of battle, who slept in cold foxholes, who went without the 4 of food and shelter, who stuck it out and drove back the Nazi reign of murder. This was not a volunteer soldier, not someone well paid, 5 an average guy, up 6 the best trained, best equipped, fiercest, most brutal enemies seen in centuries.

His name isn’t much. G. I. is just a military abbreviation 7 Government Issue, and it was on all of the articles 8 to soldiers. And Joe? A common name for a guy who never 9 it to the top. Joe Blow, Joe Palooka, Joe Magrac... a working class name. The United States has 10 had a president or vice-president or secretary of state Joe.

G. I. Joe had a 11 career fighting German, Japanese, and Korean troops. He appears as a character, or a 12 of American personalities, in the 1945 movie The Story of G. I. Joe，based on the last days of war correspondent Ernie Pyle. Some of the soldiers Pyle 13 portrayed themselves in the film.

Given the advantages of electronic money, you might think that we would move quickly to the cashless society in which all payments are made electronically. 1 , a true cashless society is probably not around the corner. Indeed, predictions have been 2 for two decades but have not yet come to fruition. For example, Business Week predicted in 1975 that electronic means of payment would soon “revolutionize the very 3 of money itself, ’’ only to 4 itself several years later. Why has the movement to a cashless society been so 5 in coming?

Although electronic means of payment may be more efficient than a payments system based on paper, several factors work 6 the disappearance of the paper system. First, it is very 7 to set up the computer, card reader, and telecommunications networks necessary to make electronic money the 8 form of payment. Second, paper checks have the advantage that they 9 receipts, something that many consumers are unwilling to

10 Third, the use of paper checks gives consumers several days of “float” ——it takes several days 11 a check is cashed and funds are 12 from the issuer’s account, which means that the writer of the check can earn interest on the funds in the meantime. 13 electronic payments are immediate, they eliminate the float for the consumer.

Fourth, electronic means of payment may 14 security and privacy concerns. We often hear media reports that an unauthorized hacker has been able to access a computer database and to alter information 15 there. The fact that this is not an 16 occurrence means that dishonest persons might be able to access bank accounts in electronic payments systems and 17 from someone else’s accounts. The 18 of this type of fraud is no easy task, and a new field of computer science is developing to 19 security issues. A further concern is that the use of electronic means of payment leaves an electronic 20 that contains a large amount of personal data. There are concerns that government, employers, and marketers might be able to access these data, thereby violating our privacy.

Thinner isn’t always better. A number of studies have __1___ that normal-weight people are in fact at higher risk of some diseases compared to those who are overweight. And there are health conditions for which being overweight is actually ___2___. For example, heavier women are less likely to develop calcium deficiency than thin women. ___3___ among the elderly, being somewhat overweight is often an ___4___ of good health.

Of even greater ___5___ is the fact that obesity turns out to be very difficult to define. It is often defined ___6___ body mass index, or BMI. BMI ___7__ body mass divided by the square of height. An adult with a BMI of 18 to 25 is often considered to be normal weight. Between 25 and 30 is overweight. And over 30 is considered obese. Obesity, ___8___,can be divided into moderately obese, severely obese, and very severely obese.

While such numerical standards seem 9 , they are not. Obesity is probably less a matter of weight than body fat. Some people with a high BMI are in fact extremely fit, 10 others with a low BMI may be in poor 11 .For example, many collegiate and professional football players 12 as obese, though their percentage body fat is low. Conversely, someone with a small frame may have high body fat but a 13 BMI.

文章分析

本文是一篇關(guān)于肥胖與健康關(guān)系新說法的議論文。第一段引出作者對身材的看法：并不是越瘦就證明人越健康。第二段中作者介紹了一種定義肥胖癥的指標(biāo) BMI。第三段中作者指出 BMI 其實揭示的是人體的脂肪量，并不是說明身材好壞的指數(shù)。第四段中講述了整個社會其實會給肥胖者貼上消極標(biāo)簽，無論是在電視節(jié)目中還是在孩子們的心目中，胖人的形象總是與消極聯(lián)系起來。最后一段講述了人們以健康的角度去考慮肥胖的影響，和已經(jīng)采取的一些對抗肥胖的種種策略。

試題解析

Thinner isn't always better. A number of studies have __1__ that normalweight people are in fact at higher risk of some diseases compared to those who are overweight. And there are healthy conditions for which being overweight is actually __2__. For example, heavierwomen are less likely to develop calcium deficiency than thin women. __3__,among the elderly, being somewhat overweight is often an __4__ of good health.

【譯文】太瘦也不總是好事。一些研究已經(jīng)得出結(jié)論：正常體重的人實際上比一些超重的人更容易患上某些疾病。有些肥胖對健康還有保護(hù)作用。例如稍微超重的女性跟消瘦的女性相比，不易受到鈣質(zhì)缺乏的影響。同樣的，在老年人中，一定程度上超重是身體健康的標(biāo)志。

1.【答案】B

2.【答案】A

3.【答案】C

4.【答案】A

Of even greater __5__ is the fact that obesity turns out to be very difficult to define. It is often defined __6__ body mass index, or BMI. BMI __7__ body mass divided by the square of height. An adult with a BMI of 18 to 25 is often considered to be normal weight. Between 25 and 30 is overweight. And over 30 is considered obese. Obesity, __8__,can be divided into moderately obese, severely obese, and very severely obese.

【譯文】需要更加關(guān)注是，很難對肥胖加以定義。肥胖經(jīng)常根據(jù)身體質(zhì)量指數(shù)來定義，或叫做 BMI，它等于身體重量除以身高平方。正常成年人的是 BMI 值應(yīng)該在 18～25 之間。25～30 的話視為超重。30 以上視為肥胖。肥胖依次能夠分為中度肥胖、重度肥胖和極度肥胖。

5.【答案】D

6.【答案】A

7.【答案】C

8.【答案】C

While such numerical standards seem __9__， they are not. Obesity is probably less a matter of weight than body fat. Some people with a high BMI are in fact extremely fit, __10__ others with a low BMI may be in poor __11__. For example, many collegiate and professional football players __12__ as obese, though their percentage body fat is low.Conversely, someone with a small frame may have high body fat but a __13__ BMI.

【譯文】雖然這些數(shù)字標(biāo)準(zhǔn)看起來直截了當(dāng)，實際卻不是這樣。肥胖相比體重而言，更強(qiáng)調(diào)脂肪含量。有些人BMI值很高，但是身材卻相當(dāng)好，有些人BMI值雖然低，但是體型卻很差。例如，有些職業(yè)足球運動員被認(rèn)為很胖，但是身體脂肪量卻很低。相反，一些小個頭的胖子BMI值卻正常。

Teachers, employers, and health professionals have been shown to harbor biases against the obese. __17__very young children tend to look down on the overweight,and teasing about body build has long been a problem in schools.

【譯文】今天我們都有向肥胖貼歧視標(biāo)簽的趨勢。媒體中呈現(xiàn)肥胖者時通常把他們的臉蓋起來。與肥胖聯(lián)系起來的原型總是包括懶惰，缺乏意志力，對成功的期望值不高。教師，雇員和健康工作者都是對肥胖抱有偏見。甚至小孩子也看不起肥胖的者，在學(xué)校嘲笑身材體型不好的同學(xué)一直是一個存在的問題。

14.【答案】D

15.【答案】B

16.【答案】D

17.【答案】A

Negative attitudes toward obesity, __18__ in health concerns, have stimulated a number of antiobesity __19__. My own hospital system has banned sugary drinks from its facilities.

【譯文】基于健康考慮的對肥胖的消極態(tài)度，已經(jīng)引發(fā)一系列的對抗肥胖的相關(guān)措施。我自己工作的醫(yī)院的供飲設(shè)備已經(jīng)停止發(fā)放含糖飲料。很多雇員已經(jīng)有了減肥健身的積極性。米歇爾奧巴馬已經(jīng)倡議發(fā)起一些明確的對抗兒童發(fā)胖的活動，甚至表明它是我們最大的安全威脅。

1、Happy people work differently. They’re more productive, more creative, and willing to take greater risks. And new research suggests that happiness might influence(1)firm’s work, too.

Companies located in places with happier people invest more, according to a recent research paper. (2) , firms in happy places spend more on R&D (research and development). That’s because happiness is linked to the kind of longer-term thinking (3) for making investments for the future.

The researchers wanted to know if the (4) and inclination for risk-taking that come with happiness would (5) the way companies invested. So they compared U.S. cities’ average happiness (6) by Gallup polling with the investment activity of publicly traded firms in those areas.

(7) enough, firms’ investment and R&D intensity were correlated with the happiness of the area in which they were (8) .But is it really happiness that’s linked to investment, or could something else about happier cities (9) why firms there spend more on R&D? To find out, the researchers controlled for various (10) that might make firms more likely to invest – like size, industry, and sales – and for indicators that a place was (11) to live in, like growth in wages or population. The link between happiness and investment generally (12) even after accounting for these things.

The correlation between happiness and investment was particularly strong for younger firms, which the authors (13) to “l(fā)ess codified decision making process” and the possible presence of “younger and less (14) managers who are more likely to be influenced by sentiment.” The relationship was (15) stronger in places where happiness was spread more (16) .Firms seem to invest more in places where most people are relatively happy, rather than in places with happiness inequality.

(17) this doesn’t prove that happiness causes firms to invest more or to take a longer-term view, the authors believe it at least (18)at that possibility. It’s not hard to imagine that local culture and sentiment would help (19) how executives think about the future. “It surely seems plausible that happy people would be more forward-thinking and creative and (20) R&D more than the average,” said one researcher.

Some imagine that the coming work-free world will be defined by (2) . A few wealthy people will own all the capital, and the masses will struggle in an impoverished wasteland.

A different and not mutually exclusive (3) holds that the future will be a wasteland of a different sort, one (4) by purposelessness: Without jobs to give their lives (5) , people will simply become lazy and depressed.

Because humans have an inherent need to (1)uncertainty, according to a recent study in Psychological Science. The new research reveals that the need to know is so strong that people will (2) to satisfy their curiosity even when it is clear the answer will(3) .

In a series of four experiments, behavioral scientists at the University of Chicago and the Wisconsin School of Business tested students' willingness to (4) themselves to unpleasant stimuli in an effort to satisfy curiosity. For one, (5) each participant was shown a pile of pens that the researcher claimed were from a previous experiment. The twist? Half of the pens would (6) an electric shock when clicked.

Twenty-seven students were told which pens were electrified; another twenty-seven were told only that some were electrified (7) left alone in the room, the students who did not know which ones would shock them clicked more pens and incurred more shocks than the students who knew what would (8) .Subsequent experiments reproduced this effect with other stimuli,(9)the sound of fingernails on a chalkboard and photographs of disgusting insects.

The drive to (10) is deeply rooted in humans, much the same as the basic drives for (11) or shelter, says Christopher Hsee of the University of Chicago. Curiosity is often considered a good instinct-it can (12) new scientific advances, for instance-but sometimes such ( 13) can backfire. The insight that curiosity can drive you to do (14) things is a profound one.

Unhealthy curiosity is possible to ( 15 ), however. In a final experiment, participants who were encouraged to (16) how they would feel after viewing an unpleasant picture were less likely to ( 17) to see such an image. These results suggest that imagining the (18) of following through on one's curiosity ahead of time can help determine (19) it is worth the endeavor.

1、Weighing yourself regularly is a wonderful way to stay aware of any significant weight fluctuations.(1), when done too often, this habit can sometimes hurt more than it (2) .

As for me, weighing myself every day caused me to shift my focus from being generally healthy and physically active to focusing (3) on the scale. That was bad to my overall fitness goals. I had gained weight in the form of muscle mass, but thinking only of (4) the number on the scale, I altered my training program. That conflicted with how I needed to train to (5) my goals.

I also found weighing myself daily did not provide an accurate (6) of the hard work and progress I was making in the gym. It takes about three weeks to a month to notice significant changes in weight (7)altering your training program. The most (8) changes will be observed in skill level, strength and inches lost.

For these (9) , I stopped weighing myself every day and switched to a bimonthly weighing schedule (10) . Since weight loss is not my goal, it is less important for me to (11) my weight each week. Weighing every other week allows me to observe and (12) any significant weight changes. That tells me whether I need to (13) my training program.

I also use my bimonthly weigh-in (14) to get information about my nutrition as well. If my training intensity remains the same, but I’m constantly (15) and dropping weight, this is a (16) that I need to increase my daily caloric intake.

The (17) to stop weighing myself every day has done wonders for my overall health, fitness and well-being. I am experiencing increased zeal for working out since I no longer carry the burden of a (18) morning weigh-in. I’ve also experienced greater success in achieving ray specific fitness goals, (19) I’m training according to those goals, instead of numbers on a scale.

Rather than (20) over the scale, turn your focus to how you look, feel, how your clothes fit and your overall energy level.

1、Being a good parent is what every parent would like to be. But defining what it means to be a good parent is undoubtedly very(1) , particularly since children respond differently to the same style of parenting. A calm, rule-following child might respond better to a different sort of parenting than, (2) , a younger one sibling.

(3) , there’s another sort of parent that’s easier to (4) : a patient parent. Children of every age benefit from patient parenting. Still, (5) , every parent would like to be patient, this is no easy(6) . Sometimes, parents get exhausted and are unable to maintain a(7) style with their kids. I understand this.

You’re only human, and sometimes your kids can(8) you just a little too far. And then the(9) happens: You lose your patience and either scream at your kids or say something that was too(10) and does nobody any good. You wish that you could (11) the clock and start over. We’ve all been there.

If you consistently lose your(15) with your kids, then you are inadvertently modeling a lack of emotional control for your kids. We are all becoming increasingly aware of the(16) of modeling patience for the younger generation. This is a skill that will help them all throughout life. In fact, the ability to maintain emotional control when(17) by stress is one of the most significant of all life’s skills.

Certainly, it’s (18) to maintain patience at all times with your kids. A more practical goal is to try,， to the best of your ability, to be as tolerant and composed as you can when faced with(19) situations involving your children. I can promise you this: As a result of working toward this goal, you and your children will benefit and(20) from stressful moments feeling better physically and emotionally.

    It's not difficult to set targets for staff.It is much harder,_1_ to understand their negative consequences. Most work-related behaviors have multiple components. 2_ one and the other become distorted.

    Travel on a London bus and you'll_3_ see how this works with drivers. Watch people get on and show their tickets.Are they are carefully inspected? Never.Do people get on without paying? Of course! Are there inspectors to 4 that people have paid? Possibly,but very few. And people who run for the bus? They are 5 . How about jumping lights? Buses do so almost as frequently as cyclists.

    Why Because the target is _6_.People complained that buses were late and infrequent,_7_,the number of buses and bus lanes were increased,and drivers were_8_ or punished according to the time they took.And drivers hit their targets. But they _9_ cyclists.If the target was changed to_10_,you would have more inspectors and more sensitive pricing. If the criterion changed to safety, you would get more __11_ drivers who obeyed traffic laws. But both these criteria would be at the expense of time.

    There is another_12_:people become immensely inventive in hitting targets. Have you 13_ that you can leave on a fight an hour late but still arrive on time? Tailwind? Of course not!Airlines have simply changed the time a _14_ is meant to take.A one-hour flight is now billed as a two-hour flight .

    The _15_ of the story is simple,Most jobs are multidimensional with multiple criteria. Choose one criterion and you may well_16_others.Everything can be done faster and made cheaper, but there is a_17_ .Setting targets can and does have unforeseen consequences

    This is not an argument against target-setting.But it is an argument for exploring consequences first.All good targets should have multiple criteria_18_ critical factors such as time,money,quality and customer feedback.The trick is not to_19_just one or even two dimensions of the objective, but also to understand bow to help people better_20_ the objective .
