D
Tess still stood hesitating like a swimmer about to make his dive, hardly knowing whether to return or move forward, when a figure came out from the dark door of the tent. It was a tall young man, smoking.
He had an almost black face, though red and smooth. His moustache was black with curled points, though he could not be more than twenty-three or-four. There was all unusual force in his face, and in his daring rolling eyes.
“Well, my beauty, what can I do for you?” said he, coming forward. And seeing that she was quite at a loss: “Never mind me, I am Mr. d’Urbervilles. Have you come to see me or my mother”
This differed greatly from what Tess had expected. She had dreamed of an aged and dignified face. She tried to keep calm and answered-“I came to see your mother, sir.”
“I am afraid you cannot see her-she is ill in bed,” replied the representative of the house; for this was Mr. Alec, the only son of the noble family. “What is the business you wish to see her about?”
“It isn’t business-it is-I can hardly say what.”
“Pleasure”
“Oh no. Why, sir, if I tell you, it will seem…”
Tess’s sense of a certain ridicule was now so strong that despite her general discomfort at being here, her rosy lips curved（弯曲）towards a smile, much to the attraction of the young man.
“It is so foolish,” she stammered（结结巴巴地说）; “I fear I can’t tell you”
“Never mind; I like foolish things. Try again, my dear,” said he kindly.
“Mother asked me to come,” Tess continued, “and, indeed, I was in the mind to do so myself. But I did not think it would be like this. I came, sir, to tell you that we are of the same family as you.”
“Ho! Poor relations!”
“Yes.”
“Stokes”
“No; d’Urbervilles.”
“Ay, ay; I mean d’Urbervilles.”
“Our names are worn away to Durbeyfield; but we have several proofs that we are d’Urbervilles. The local scholars hold the view that we are, …and…and we have an old seal（印章）and a silver spoon marked with the same castle as yours. So mother said we ought to make ourselves known to you, as we’ve lost our horse by a bad accident; we can hardly make a living.”
“Very kind of your mother, I’m sure.” Alec looked at Tess as he spoke, in a way that made her uneasy. ”And so, my pretty girl, you’ve come on a friendly visit to us, as relations.”
“I suppose I have,” looking less confident and uncomfortable again.
“Well—there’s no harm in it. Where do you live? What are you?”
—Tess of the d’Urbervilles By Thomas Hardy
67. How does Tess feel in the whole course of the meeting with Alec？
A. Excited and hopeful B. Nervous and uncomfortable
C. Surprised but comfortable D. Pleased but embarrassed
68. In the eyes of Tess, Alec is ________.
A. forceful and daring B. unfriendly and talkative
C. a gentle and reliable man D. older than she had expected
69. Why does Tess pay the visit to the d’Urbervilles？
A. To see Alec himself.
B. To see Alec’s mother.
C. To confirm that they are of the same family.
D. To make known their relationship and seek help.
70. Alec appears quite friendly to Tess mainly because ________.
A. Tess is his distant relation B. Tess looks polite to him
C. Tess is a pretty girl D. Tess looks ridiculous

One evening in February 2007 . a student named Paula Ceely brought her car to a stop on a remote in Wales . She got out to open a metal gate that blocked her path . That's when she heard the whistle sounded by the driver of a train.Her Renault Clio parked across a railway line. Second later,she watched the train drag her car almost a kilometre down the railway tracks.
Ceely's near miss made the news because she blamed it on her GPS device(导航仪).She had never driven the route before .It was dark and raining heavily . Ceely was relying on her GPS. But it made no mention of the crossing ."I put my complete trust in the device and it led me right into the path of a speeding train ,"she told the BBC.
W ho is to blame here ? Rick Stevenson ,who tells Ceely's story in his book When Machines Fail US, finger at the limitations of technology. We put our faith in digital devices, he says,
but our digital helpers are too often not up to the job. They are filled with small problems. And it’s not just GPS devices: Stevenson takes us on a tour of digital disasters involving everything from mobile phones to wireless key boards.
The problem with his argument in the book is that it’s not clear why he only focuses digital technology,while there may be a number of other possible causes. A map-maker might have left the crossing off a paper map. Maybe we should blame Ceely for not paying attention. perhaps the railway authorities are at fault for poor signaling system. Or maybe someone has studied the relative dangers and worked out that there really is something specific wrong with the CPS equipment. But Stevenson doesn’t say.
It’s a problem that runs through the book. In a section on cars, Stevenson gives an accout of the advanced techniques that criminals use to defeat computer-based locking systems for cars. He offers two independent sets of figures on car theft; both show a small rise in some parts of the country. He 
says that once once again not all new locks have proved reliable. Perhaps, but maybe it’s also due to the shortage of policemen on the streets. Or changing social circumstances. Or some combination of these factors .
The game between humans and their smart devices is complex. It is shaped by economics and psychology and the cultures we live in. Somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be way a wiser use of technology.

阅读表达（共5小题, 每小题3分, 满分15分）
Let me tell you about five of the enemies we face from within．The first enemy that you’ve got to destroy before it destroys you is indifference．What a tragic disease this is! “Ho-hum，let it slide. I’ll just drift along．” Here’s one problem with drifting：you can’t drift your way to the top of the mountain．
The second enemy we face is indecision(优柔寡断). Indecision is the thief of opportunity and enterprise．It will steal your chances for a better future．Take a sword to this enemy．
The third enemy inside is doubt．Sure，there’s room for healthy skepticism．You can’t believe everything．But you also can’t let doubt take over．Many people doubt the past, doubt the future，doubt each other，doubt the government，doubt the possibilities and doubt the opportunities． , they doubt themselves．I’m telling you，doubt will destroy your life and your chances of success．It will empty both your bank account and your heart．Doubt is all enemy．Get rid of it．
The fourth enemy within is worry．We’ve all got to worry some．Just don’t let it conquer you．Instead, let it alarm you．Worry can be useful．If you step off the curb (路边) in New York City and a taxi is coming，you’ve got to worry．But you can’t let worry loose like a mad dog that drives you into a small corner．Here’s what you’ve got to do with your worries：drive them into a small corner. Whatever is out to get you，you’ve got to get it．Whatever is pushing on you, you’ve got to push back．
The fifth enemy is overcaution. It is the timid (胆小的) approach to life．Timidity is not a virtue；it’s an illness．If you let it go，it’ll conquer you．Timid people don’t get promoted．They don’t advance and grow and become powerful in the marketplace．You’ve got to avoid overcaution．
【小题1】What’s the best title for this passage? (Within 8 words)
.
【小题2】List three enemies inside that might prevent you from getting promoted．(Within 5 words)
.
【小题3】Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words or phrases．(Within 5 words)

首先请阅读下列6出电影的简要介绍，并按照要求匹配信息。
A．It is about the legend of vampire, the story of the wolf man, the
campus life, moved love story, horror, adventure and other elements. The story
begins with the main character, Isabella (Bella) Swan, moving from Phoenix, to
the small town of Forks, a dreary and rain-filled place, to live with her
father. She develops a relationship with fellow student, Edward Cullen, who
initially annoys her, but despite a rough beginning, they fall in love. After
witnessing some strange behavior from Edward, Bella eventually discovers that
he is a vampire, but despite the very real risk to her life, she cannot bear to
be apart from him. Eventually Bella is introduced to Edward’s vampire family,
not all of who welcome her with open arms, however, it is Edward’s family that
go to great lengths to save Bella when her life is threatened.
B. With an absent father and a withdrawn and
depressed mother, 17 year-old Ree Dolly keeps her family together in a dirt
poor rural area. She's taken backwards however when the local Sheriff（县治安官） tells her that her father put up
their house for his bail（保释）and unless he shows up for
his trial in a week's time, they will lose it all. She knows her father is
involved in the local drug trade and manufactures crystal meth but anywhere she
goes the message is the same: stay out of it and stop poking your nose in other
people's business. She refuses to listen, even after her father's brother,
Teardrop, tells her he's probably been killed. She pushes on, putting her own
life in danger, for the sake of her family until the truth, or enough of it, is
revealed.
C. Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute
best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep
within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most
vulnerable. Cobb's rare ability has made him a coveted（妄想的） player in this deceitful new
world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international
fugitive. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption（赎）. One last job could give him his life back but only if he can
accomplish the impossible-inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his
team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an
idea but to plant one. But no amount of careful planning or expertise can
prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every
move...
D. Reflecting on her earlier life, she
observes that for most of it she was either with a man or in the process of
leaving one, and so in the first stages of her journey she experiments with
singleness. Not with solitude, exactly, since Liz is naturally sociable and
acquires friends easily. Back home in New York she has Delia, and in Rome a
Swedish woman named Sofi introduces her to an amicable（心平气和）group of Italians, including a
fellow whose last name is Spaghetti. While he is seen mainly in group shots,
his namesake food is filmed in loving close-ups. In keeping with the theme of
self-examination, Liz’s trip is confined to countries that begin with the letter
“I”. From the ruins of Italy, to an ashram in India, and then to
Indonesia......
E. John Crowley is a worried businessman and
father of two children stricken with Pompe disease, suffering of muscle
deterioration（恶化）with an
age expectancy of nine years. With critical birthdays looming on the horizon,
Crowley decides to take a chance and pursue research scientist Robert
Stonehill, a rebellious thinker in the field of Pompe with radical ideas on
enzyme therapy. Promising money he doesn't necessarily have, Crowley talks
Stonehill into a business venture, pushing the irascible（暴躁的） scientist into research while he worries about the cash flow. With
the clock ticking, Stonehill presents challenging theories, irritating the
interest of pharmaceutical giants, who demand results practically overnight.
With Stonehill feeling the heat during this demoralizing process, Crowley
fights to maintain the face of Pompe, to keep the cure from becoming just
another compromised drug on the market.
F. Bob Ho, a Chinese spy who was loaned to
the CIA and is now retiring so he can settle down and marry his girlfriend,
Gillian, who lives next door and doesn't know he's a spy. She thinks he's a pen
importer. Around her, Bob acts like a boring country man, wears eyeglasses, and
hides his super-spy abilities. Gillian loves that he's normal and reliable, not
like her ex-husband, who ran off and left her with three kids. So Gillian has
to go out of town because her father's in the hospital, and Bob volunteers to
babysit so he can bond with the children. Meanwhile, a Russian terrorist named
Poldark has escaped CIA custody and is looking for a top-secret code that young
Ian accidentally downloaded from Bob's computer, which means Poldark and his
goons are going to show up any minute now and kill them all. Bob must save the
children -- and the world!
