    15．Some people believe the world will come to an end if they say"no"．Thoughts that stop us from saying"no"include："If I say‘no'，everyone will hate me．People will think I'm rude．"Saying"no"to people you will harm them in some terrible way．
    None of the above will happen if you say"no"．People don't really care that much!Imagine someone asking to wear your new jacket and you say"no"．Even if that person asks why，you can be honest and tell her you've decided not to lend it out．You don't have to apologize or make up excuses．Imagine you ask your friend for a lift and he says，"Sorry，the car's full already．"Do you feel hurt？The fact is that the car's full．That's all．
    That doesn't mean it's always easy to say"no"，especially when you care about the person．Here are some confident ways of saying"no"that don't sound rude．How about saying，"I'll get to my homework right now．""I really don't have time to do that now．Can you get someone else to do it for you？"
    If you act like it's no big deal to say"no"，and just stay relaxed，then it doesn't have to be that important for the other person to get you to say"yes"．If you're at a party and someone hands you a beer，you can pass it on to the next person，or calmly say"no thanks"．
    Using humor is a good idea to avoid doing something you don't want to do．But if using nice jokes isn't easy for you，the following TIPS may help：Make an Excuse：It makes me throw up； Avoid It：I'm going to be late； we'd better hurry； Pour It on：Are you serious？I can't believe you said that!Switch Directions：Wait．I have to tell you about what Jenny said to me．

    B．the reasons why people are afraid of saying"no"
    C．the bad effects that saying"no"will bring about

    分析 本文主要讲述了如何不失礼貌地说"不"的技巧．

    解答 BACAD
    61．B 根据："If I say‘no'，everyone will hate me．People will think I'm rude．"Saying"no"to people you will harm them in some terrible way．可知，这都是人们害怕说NO的原因，故答案为B
    62．A 根据 None of the above will happen if you say"no"．People don't really care that much!可知，所NO的非常正常和自然的事情，故答案为A
    63．C 根据 That doesn't mean it's always easy to say"no"，especially when you care about the person．Here are some confident ways of saying"no"that don't sound rud可知，礼貌地说NO是需要技巧的，故答案为C

    点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是，仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案，这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱．所谓阅读理解，对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文，因此，每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查，再得出答案．也就是说，阅读理解的每一道题目，在原文都应该有明确的出处，我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句，（1）排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项（2）排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项 （3）排除用于过于极端或负面的选项（4）注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除．

    5．They may be just passing your office，computer bag slung （悬挂） over one shoulder．Or they may be sitting in a car outside it，causally tapping away at a laptop．They look like innocent passers-by．In fact，they are stealing your corporate secrets．
    Drive-by hacking is the trendy term given to the practice of breaking into wireless computer networks from outside the buildings that house them．A recent study in the UK，sponsored by RSA Data Security，found that two-thirds of organizations with wireless networks were risking their data in this way．Security experts patrolled （巡逻） several streets in the City of London seeking evidence of wireless networks in operation．
    Of 124 that they identified，83 were sending data without encrypting（加密） them．Such data could readily be picked up by a passer-by armed only with a portable computer，a wireless modem and a few pieces of software that can be freely downloaded from the Internet．
    The data could include sensitive company documents containing valuable information．Or they could be e-mail identities and passwords that could be used by hackers to log into corporate networks as if they were legal users．
    Most companies using wireless networking technology do not take even the simplest of measures to protect their data．Nearly all wireless network technology comes with some basic security features that need only to be activated （激活） in order to give a minimum level of security，for example，by encrypting the data being passed over the network．
    Raymon Kruck，business development manager at Check Point Software，a security technology specialist，believes this could be partly a psychological problem．People see the solid walls of their building as safeguards and forget that wireless networks can extend up to 200 meters beyond physical walls．
    Companies without any security at all on their wireless networks make it ridiculously easy for hackers to break in．Switching on the security that comes with the network technology should be automatic．Then there are other basic steps a company can take，says Mr．Kruck，such as changing the passwords on the network from the default （默认） setting．
    Companies can also install firewalls，which form a barrier between the internal network and the public Internet．They should also check their computer records regularly to spot any abnormal activity，which might betray the presence of a hacker．
    41．According to the study sponsored by RSA Data Security，two thirds of the subjectsC．
    A．had most of their company data stolen   
    B．depended on wireless computer networks
    C．were exposed to drive-by hacking       
    D．were unaware of the risk of wireless hacking
    42．Whichof the following is NOT considered in the study？A
    A．The number of computer hacking incidents．
    B．The number of wireless computer networks identified．
    C．The way in which data are sent and received．
    D．The way in which data are hacked and stolen．
    43．Most wireless network technology has．A
    A．data encryption program    
    B．password security programs
    C．illegal-user detection        
    D．firewall
    44．Raymond Kruck most probably agrees that wireless network security involvesB
    A．wireless signal administration  
    B．changes in user's awareness
    C．users'psychological health     
    D．stronger physical walls
    45．The passage is lost likely to be seen in aD
    A．book review    B．science fiction   C．textbook   D．computer magazine．

    6．English is an important global language，but that doesn't mean it's easy to learn．Many experts have tried to make English easier for students to learn-but they weren't always successful．
    In 1930，Professor CK Ogden of Cambridge University invented Basic English．It had only 850 words （and just eighteen verbs） and Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours．The problem was that people who learned Basic English could write and say simple messages，but they couldn't understand the answers in"real"English!It was also impossible to explain a word if it wasn't in the Basic English word list．For example，if you wanted a watermelon，you asked for"a large green fruit with the form of an egg，which has a sweet red inside and a good taste"!
    RE Zachrisson，a university professor in Sweden，decided that the biggest problem for learners of English was spelling，so he invented a language called Anglic．Anglic was similar to English，but with much simpler spelling．"Father"became"faadher"，"new"became"nue'and"years"became"yeerz"．Unfortunately for some students of English，Anglic never became popular．
    Even easier is the language which ships'captains use：it's called"Seaspeak"．Seaspeak uses a few simple phrases for every possible situation．In Seaspeak，for example，you don't say，"I'm sorry what did you say？"or"I didn't understand，can you repeat that？"It's just"Say again．"No more grammar!
    In the age of international communication through the Internet who knows？…a new form of English might appear．A large number of the world's e-mails are in English and include examples of"NetLingo"like OIC （Oh，I see） and TTYL （Talk to you later）．In another fifty years，English might not exist…we will probably all speak fluent Internetish!
    36．The best title for the passage would beD．
    A．Seaspeak      B．Basic English       C．Internetish       D．Easy English    
    37．It will take a person aboutCweeks to learn Basic English if he spends two hours learning it every day．
    A．six           B．four               C．two             D．three
    38．According to Professor Zachrisson，what was the biggest problem for learners of English？D
    A．Grammar．B．Vocabulary．C．Speaking．D．Spelling．
    39．Which of the following is likely to be Anglic？B
    A．IOU  B．A graet batl．C．Long time no see．D．Two five，no lights．
    40．What might happen to English in another fifty years？A
    A．It might be replaced by Internetish．
    B．It might become a global language．
    C．It might take the place of all other languages．
    D．It might become more and more difficult．

    3．As the summer time approaches，more and more commercials and advertisements can be seen on the mass media encouraging students to join English study tours abroad．The purpose of these tours is to provide students with an opportunity to learn English in a native speaking environment and use English in real situations．Parents always believe that their children will automatically speak good English after attending these study tours．However，for me，as an English major and former participant of many English study tours，I find these summer tours ineffective．
    Parents who send their children abroad for a summer to study English usually believe that the native speaking environment，including the courses，teachers，and host families，can help their children to learn English better．This might be true if the students really study hard and they really get an all-English environment．But the fact is that，most of the time，the tour part is more important than the study part．Although these tours take place in foreign countries，students are rarely exposed in an all-English environment．You will find that，in the morning classes，Taiwanese students would like to stick together and speak Chinese with each other，even though there are some students from other countries．In the afternoon，the students go on a sightseeing excursion with their companions from Taiwan； they speak Chinese of course．In the evening，when students return to the host families，they would stay in their room and share the day with their roommate，another Taiwanese student．People who speak the same language with you is like a log（原木）in the ocean when living in a foreign country where you can not express yourself well，so that you would naturally stick with them．This is especially true with children．
    Another unrealistic expectation parents have for these tours is that the experience of living abroad can make their children more independent and mature．However，maturity does not come overnight．It takes time and practice．The most important of all is that they need a good mentor（顾问）．None of these exist in the study tours．

    30．Which of the following is the most important thing for children who study in an English environment according to the writer？B
    A．Host families．    B．Hard work．    
    C．Courses．          D．Teachers．
    31．The underlined word"mature"in the last paragraph probably meansD．
    A．active         B．free        
    C．outgoing       D．grown-up
    32．What's the author's attitude towards the English study tours abroad？B
    A．Doubtful．     B．Negative．   
    C．Positive．     D．Neutral．

    7．Like many other places in the world，recently，Indiana education officials decided that the schools of the state will not be required to teach handwriting skills to students any longer．Instead，they will focus their energies on teaching students how to type．Is handwriting still an important skill？An online survey received some surprising responses．
    Handwriting is not necessary．Students only need to know how to read it，and the only time that they must write something is to make a signature．Why stress them more than they need to be stressed？We already put so much pressure on them to perform on state tests．-Rita
    Children don't write letters now．They send e-mails or text messages．A lot of those old ways are going away．How many bills do you pay by writing a check anymore？-Brown

    4．Have you ever been afraid？Do thunder and lightning make your heart beat faster？Maybe your mouth goes dry when your teacher says you will be given a test，or your palms（手掌） sweat when it's your turn to give your report in front of the class．Perhaps you   get butterflies in your stomach when you see the bully （欺负人的人） who chooses you．
    We all have fears sometimes．That's true no matter how big we are or how brave we can be．Fear of getting too close to a campfire may save you from a bad burn．And fear of getting a bad grade on a test may make you study hard．Being nervous can also sharpen your senses and help you perform better during a track meet．Some people even enjoy being a little scared （恐惧的）．That's why they like to watch scary movies．

    Tell your parents if your anxiety becomes strong and is getting in the way of what you want to do．Your parents can take you to a doctor，who can help to find out if a medical problem is making you feel anxious．But you can also try these ways to kill the feeling yourself．

    A．Get angry．    B．Get nervous．
