19.The average computer user has between 5 and 15 username/password combinations to log in different kinds of accounts.Some demand you use a specific number of symbols and digits,while others require you to change your password every 60 days.The feeling of confusion resulting from memorizing these login information has grown so common that it actually has a name:password fatigue(疲劳).
Having to remember so many different passwords is annoying,but it can also be dangerous.Because it is virtually impossible to remember a unique password for each of these accounts,many people leave handwritten lists of usernames and passwords on or next to their computers.
(71)GWhile these practices make it easier to remember login information,they also make it easier for thieves to hack into accounts.
Single Sign-On (SSO) confirmation and password management software can help solve this problem.With SSO,users only need to remember one password to log in to the main system.
(72)DSSO software is typically used by large companies,schools,or libraries.
(73)EIf a user loses or forgets the password required to log in to SSO software,the user will then lose access to all of the applications linked to the SSO account.Users who rely on password management software face the same problems.
Although most websites or network systems allow users to recover or change lost passwords by providing email addresses or answering a prompt(提示),this process can waste time and cause further frustration.What is more,recovering a forgotten password is only a temporary solution.
(74)A
Some computer scientists have suggested computers rely on biometrics(生物测定学).(75)F The use of biometrics raises questions concerning privacy and can also be expensive to practice.
 Software engineers and computer security experts are still searching for the cure to password fatigue.Until they find the perfect solution,however,everyone will simply have to rely on the password system currently in place.

A.It does not address the larger problem of password fatigue.
B.These software programs have been built into many major web browsers
C.The problem with password management software makes users feel powerless.
D.The SSO software then automatically logs the user in to other accounts within the system.
E.However,SSO confirmation and password management software also have drawbacks.
F.This is a method of recognizing human users based on unique traits,such as fingerprints,voice,or DNA.
G.Others solve this problem by using the same password for every account or using extremely simple passwords.

分析 本文讲述了计算机用户由于用户名和密码过多而记混,产生一种叫"密码疲劳"的现象.如何解决这一问题,目前给出了一些方案但都不完美,需要进一步完善.

解答 71.G 根据下文"虽然这些做法更容易记住登录信息,但是它们也使小偷更容易窃取账户."可知,G项"也有的人通过每一个账户都使用一个密码,或者使用非常简单的密码这个方法来解决这个问题."符合语篇逻辑,故选G.
72.D 根据上文"With SSO,users only need to remember one password to log in to the main system."讲解SSO的工作原理,下文"SSO software is typically used…"讲解SSO的使用区域,与D项中的关键词"The SSO software"和"the system"相呼应,故选D.
73.E 上文给出SSO的解决方案,下文主要叙述SSO软件和密码管理软件的缺点,所以此处应为转折,"…also have drawbacks"是关键词,故选E.
74.A 前文提到恢复一个被忘记的密码只是一个暂时的解决方案.A项"它没有解决密码疲劳的大问题"符合语境,故选A.75.F 根据上文中的"biometrics(生物测定学)"可知,它涉及到指纹,DNA等.故选F.

点评 该类题型要求从短文后的七个选项中(均为完整的句子)选出五个能填入文章空处的最佳选项,主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握.分析篇章结构,把握全篇文脉是解题的关键.

7.Regarded as one of the English language's most gifted poets,John Keats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery,human nature,and philosophy.Although Keats didn't receive much formal literary education,his own studies and passion brought him much success.Additionally,his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly.
Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower,middle-class family,the young John didn't attend a private school,but went to a public one.His teachers and his family's friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies.After his father's death in the early 1800s,followed by his mother's passing due to tuberculosis (肺结核),he began viewing life differently.He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on.
At around the age of 16,the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor.However,his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy,especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser.He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816,entitled O Solitude!If I Must With Thee Dwell.Within two months in 1817,Keats had written an entire volume of poetry,but was sharply criticized by a magazine.However,the negative response didn't stop his pursuit of rhythm.
John Keats'next work was Endymion,which was published in May 1818.The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy's hope to overcome the limitations of being human.Following Engymion,however,he tried something more narrative-based and wrote Isabella.During this time,John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences.He would have to have the"knowledge"associated with his poems.His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned.However,a bout (发作) with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take his life in 1821.

56.John Keats'attitude towards life changed because ofD.
A.his early education from school

B.Keats received little education at school.
C.In 1816 Keats spent two months writing a poem.
D.Endymion was about a real love story.

A.knowledgeable                                          
B.experienced

7.The behaviour of a building's users may be at least as important as its design when it comes to energy use,according to new research from the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC).The UK promises to reduce its carbon emissions (排放)by 80percent by 2050,part of which will be achieved by all new homes being zero-carbon by 2016.But this report shows that sustainable building design on its own-though extremely important-is not enough to achieve such reductions:the behaviour of the people using the building has to change too.
The study suggests that the ways that people use and live in their homes have been largely ignored by existing efforts to improve energy efficiency (效率),which  instead focus on architectural and technological developments.
‘Technology is going to assist but it is not going to do everything,'explains Katy Janda,a UKERC senior researcher,‘consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most careful design.'In other words,old habits die hard,even in the best-designed eco-home.
Another part of the problem is information.Households and bill-payers don't have the knowledge they need to change their energy-use habits.Without specific information,it's hard to estimate the costs and benefits of making different choices.Feedback (反馈) facilities,like smart meters and energy monitors,could help bridge this information gap by helping people see how changing their behaviour directly affects their energy use; some studies have shown that households can achieve up to 15percent energy savings using smart meters.
Social science research has added a further dimension (方面),suggesting that individuals'behaviour in the home can be personal and cannot be predicted 一 whether people throw open their windows rather than turn down the thermostat (恒温器),for example.
Janda argues that education is the key.She calls for a focused programme to teach people about buildings and their own behaviour in them.

66.As to energy use,the new research from UKERC stresses the importance ofB.
A.zero-carbon homes       
B.the behaviour of building users
C.sustainable building design
D.the reduction of carbon emissions
67.The underlined word"which"in Paragraph 2refers to"D."
A.the ways
B.their homes
C.developments       
D.existing efforts
68.What are Katy Janda's words mainly aboutA?
A.The importance of changing building users,habits.
B.The necessity of making a careful building design.
C.The variety of consumption patterns of building users.
D.The role of technology in improving energy efficiency.
69.The information gap in energy useA.
A.can be bridged by feedback facilities
B.affects the study on energy monitors
C.brings about problems for smart meters
D.will be caused by building users'old habits
70.What does the dimension added by social science research suggestC?
A.The social science research is to be furthered.
B.The education programme is under discussion.
C.The behaviour of building users is unpredictable.
D.The behaviour preference of building users is similar.

14.One year our family decided to have a special celebration of Mother's Day,as a token of appreciations for all the sacrifices that Mother had made for us.After breakfast we had arranged,as a surprise,to hire a car and take her for a beautiful drive in the country.Mother was rarely able to have a treat like that,because she was busy in the house nearly all the time.
But on the very morning of the day,we changed the plan a little,because it occurred to Father that it would be even better to take Mother fishing.As the car was hired and paid for,we might as well use it to drive up into the hills where the streams are.As Father said,if you just go driving without object,you have a sense of aimlessness,but if you are going to fish there is a definite purpose that heightens the enjoyment.
So we all felt it would be nicer for Mother to have a definite purpose.Father had just got a fishing rod the day before,which he said mother could use if she wanted to.Only Mother said she would much rather watch him fish than try to fish herself.
So we got her to make up a sandwich lunch in case we got hungry,though we were to come home again to a big festive dinner.
Well,when the car came to the door,it turned out that there was not as much space in it as we had supposed.It was plain that we couldn't all get in.
Father said that he could just stay home and put in the time working in the garden.He said that there was a lot of rough dirty work that he could do,like digging a trench for the garbage,which would save hiring a man,and so he said that he'd stay home; he said that we were not to let the fact that he had not had a real holiday for three years stand in our way.He wanted us to go right ahead and not to mind him.
But of course we all felt that it would never do to let Father stay home,especially as we knew he would make trouble if he did.The two girls,Anne and Mary,would have stayed and helped the maid get dinner,only it seemed such a pity,for the two girls were eager to show their new hats on a lovely day like this.But they said that Mother had only to say the word and they'd gladly stay home and work.Will and I would have dropped out,but unfortunately we wouldn't have been any use in preparing the dinner.

36.The author's family decided to celebrate Mother's Day specially toB.
A.show love for their mother
B.show gratitude to their mother
C.show respect for their mother
D.to make up for a previous appointment
37.According to Paragraph 2,we know that the plan was changed becauseA.
A.Father proposed to go fishing out
B.we thought that driving out is boring
C.we failed to hire a car to go out
D.the car was not big enough
38.What problem did we find when the car arrived?C
A.The car was too old to drive on mountain roads.
B.The car was larger than we expected.
C.The car was too small to accommodate us all.
D.The car was too plain looking.
39.Why didn't the author drop out of the activity?C
A.Because his sisters didn't join in.
B.Because he needed to have dinner.
C.Because he couldn't cook the dinner.
D.Because he hadn't had a real holiday for three years.
40.Which of the following proverbs describes the text best?B
A.Everything comes to him who waits.

2.Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger,but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways.You may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water.A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater.Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers.It come from underground.The more roads and parking lots we pave,the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.
Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺).Driver climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall,but in any case,good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.
Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference,too.In the United States,a family of four can use 1.5tons of water a day!This shows how much we depend on water to live,but there's a lot we can do to lower the number.
You can take steps to save water in your home.To start with,use the same glass for your drinking water all day.Wash it only once a day.Run your dishwasher (洗碗机)only when it is full.Help your parents fix any leaks in your home.You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.

60.Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?C
A.Using river water.
B.Throwing batteries away.
C.paving parking lots.
D.Throwing rubbish into lakes.
61.What can be inferred from the text?B
A.All water shortages are due to human behavior.
B.It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.
C.There is much we can do to reduce family size.
D.The average family in America makes proper use of water.
62.The last paragraph is intended toD.
A.show us how to fix leaks at home 
B.tell us how to run a dishwasher
C.prove what drinking glass is best for us 
D.suggest what we do to save water at home
63.The text is mainly aboutD.
A.Why paving roads reduces our water 
B.how much we depend on water to live
C.why droughts occur more in dry climates
D.how human activity affects our water supply.
