    科目：高中英语 来源：2016届江苏苏锡常镇四市高三教学情况调研（二）英语试卷（解析版） 题型：阅读理解

    Computer power is moving into the “cloud”—networks of data centres that use the Internet to supply all kinds of services, from e-mail and social networks to data storage and analysis.

    The rise of cloud computing is rapid and causing huge changes in the tech industry. The old guard is suffering: this week’s $67 billion merger (合并) between Dell and EMC, makers of computers and storage devices respectively (分别), was a marriage forced by the rise of the cloud. Disruptive (捣乱的) newcomers are blooming: if Amazon’s cloud-computing unit were a stand-alone public company, it would probably be worth almost as much as Dell and EMC combined.

    The gains for customers have been equally dramatic. Compared with older IT systems, cloud computing is often much cheaper. It adds tremendous flexibility: firms that need more computing capacity no longer have to spend weeks adding new servers and installing software. In the cloud they can get hold of it in minutes. Their applications can be updated continually, rather than just every few months. Individual users can reach their e-mails, files and photos from any device. And cloud services also tend to be more secure, since providers know better than their customers how to protect their computing systems against hackers.

    But cloud computing makes one problem worse. In the old IT world, once a firm or a consumer had decided on an operating system or database, it was difficult and costly to switch to another. In the cloud this “lock-in” is even worse. Cloud providers go to great lengths to make it easy to upload data. They accumulate huge amounts of complex information, which cannot easily be moved to an alternative provider.

    Cloud firms also create a world of interconnected services, software and devices, which is convenient but only for as long as you don’t venture (冒险) outside their universe. Being locked in to a provider is risky. Firms can start to tighten the screws by increasing prices. If a cloud provider goes bust (崩溃), its customers may have trouble getting back their data.

    These risks have already caused a debate about whether the cloud needs stricter regulation. Some European politicians want to force cloud providers to ensure that data can be moved between them. That is too heavy-handed, because strict rules will inhibit (阻碍) innovation in what is still a young industry. The history of computing suggests that common standards may well appear naturally in response to customers’ demands—just as in personal computers, where it is now much easier to use the same files on different systems.

    In the meantime, a few commonsense measures can reduce the risk of lock-in. Firms that use more than one cloud provider to host their data are less affected. So are those that keep their most important information in their own data centres. Consumers can take precautions, too. Some services are better than others at enabling users to move data between providers (Google does well on this score). Cloud computing promises its users many benefits, but don’t mistake it for some sort of digital heaven.

    1.The author takes “the merger between Dell and EMC” for example to show ________.

    A. the influence of cloud computing on computer and storage device makers

    B. the miserable sufferings of old computer companies

    C. the rapid development of new computer companies

    D. the interaction between old companies and newcomers

    2.With wide applications of cloud computing customers can ________.

    A. pay less for the older IT systems

    B. gain more computing capacity quickly

    C. know better about defeating the hackers

    D. install software within weeks

    3.The problem of “lock-in” can be dangerous because ________.

    A. it should ensure data can easily be moved to another provider

    B. it can create a network of services connected with devices

    C. it may make it difficult for customers to recover their data

    D. it will discourage an argument about stricter rules

    4.It can be inferred from the last two paragraphs that ________.

    A. the European politicians’ advice is perfect

    B. customers’ demands play a role in setting standards

    C. lock-in is caused by firms’ storing information in their own centres

    D. Google enables users to provide services and move data

    5.Which of the following sayings can best express the main idea of the passage?

    A. Everything has its time and that time must be watched.

    B. The grass looks greener on the other side of the fence.

    C. A candle lights others and consumes itself.

    D. Every white has its black, and every sweet has its sour.

    It's not often you get information about a destination from a heavy metal band, but in Debrecen, Hungary's second largest city, locals are used to having to make a noise to get heard.

    Just off the historic center, Roncs bar is a pub that also hosts live music. It has the atmosphere of a student party in an old building that might soon be knocked down.

    Roncs is owned by Hungary's best-known heavy metal rock band, Tankcsapda. Sometimes referred to as the “Hungarian Metallica", the band has taken a type of music that is famous worldwide and-through lyrics, album covers, and an annual New Year's party and concert-made it all about their home city.

    It's perhaps fitting that Tankcsapda should be seen as ambassadors for Debrecen-the city sometimes needs loud heavy metal rock music to get noticed. “Foreigners think that Hungary is Budapest and there's nothing else," is a familiar saying on Debrecen's[来源:streets.

    Debrecen has, at times, been more important than the current seat of power, with locals claiming it takes over in times of trouble.

    That doesn't quite add up.

    Debrecen survived an attack from the Mongols in the 13th century, the Black Death, 150 years of struggle against the Ottomans and numerous conflicts, and yet it[来源:has still only briefly been the country's capital twice. This happened for the first time after a short-lived revolution in 1849, and for a second time at the end of World War II.

    Today, Debrecen may not be well known to tourists, but that only adds to the charm of this relaxed city. It's a small place; the historical center is sized for strolling (散步) and regular cafe stops. There's also a view of Debrecen's mix of architectural styles, a result of the frequent large fires that back in the 19th century led the city's

    students to form one of Europe's first-ever fire brigades (消防队).

    You can also see traditional weathercocks from the rooftops, featuring Islamic star and crescent moon symbols that once advertised to Ottoman invaders that the city preferred trading to fighting.

    Trade meant that Debrecen's skilled people became very successful and the city became famous for-among other things-fine foods, hats and clay pipes. In the early 19th century, 10 million clay pipes were reportedly made a year, with thousands bought for Britain's navy.

    1.What do Debrecen citizens expect Tankcsapda to do?

    A. Introduce heavy metal music to Hungary.

    B. Hold parties featuring live heavy metal music shows.

    C. Try to make Debrecen known with its music.

    D. Create a unique type of heavy metal music.

    2.Why are locals used to having to make a noise to get heard?

    A. Because they feel their city is too quiet and relaxed.

    B. Because they dislike it that the world only knows Budapest in Hungary.

    C. Because they think it helps create a powerful image of their city.

    D. Because all kinds of music bars bring their city alive.

    3. What does the underlined word refer to?

    A. Styles. B. Conditions.

    C. Atmosphere. D. Climate.

    4.What is the key message the author wants to deliver in this passage?

    A. Debrecen actually is more important than Budapest.

    B. Debrecen is a place which is worth visiting.

    C. Debrecen citizens love music and create their unique culture.

    D. Debrecen citizens are proud of their culture and history.

    As the labor market becomes more attractive, more companies are sending their employees to school. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is the latest company to use tuition assistance for employees – which for decades has been a part of many business’ benefits packages – as part of a renewed effort to bring in and cultivate talent. And while the impact of such programs has yet to be fully assessed, many see it as a positive – although gradual – movement.

    “For workers, it gives them a better opportunity for development,” says Colleen Flaherty Manchester, a professor. “For firms, they are able to recruit the type of employees who have value education and are less likely to turn over, and thus have a higher level of retention(保留) .”

    In all, 56 percent of US organizations offer undergraduate educational assistance while 52 percent offer graduate assistance.

    Largely driving the trend are Millennials, who happen to be the fastest-growing people in the US workforce today and to whom the idea of tuition support from employers is especially appealing. Nearly 60 percent of Millennials surveyed said they would choose a job with strong professional-development potential over one with regular pay raises. Employers are absolutely adapting to Millennials in the workplace. They recognize that they need more experience, more knowledge, more mentoring to be successful. And they’re asking for it.

    Of more than 140,000 Starbucks employees, only about 4,000 have signed up for the company’s College Achievement Plan. What the long-term effects such programs might have for companies’ retention and turnover rates remain unclear. But, the pluses of these programs are more important than the minuses. We’re going to see a lot more of this in the future.

    1.Using tuition assistance for employees ________.

    A. has attracted a large number of talents

    B. is a trend that formed recently

    C. has existed for scores of years

    D. is well received by employees

    2.What can we learn from what Colleen Flaherty said?

    A. It is merely beneficial to employees

    B. It is a win-win event for employees and employers.

    C. Valuing education has become a trend for all companies.

    D. It turns out to be tough for firms to find suitable employees.

    3.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

    A. Regular pay raises.

    B. More chances to be successful.

    C. Educational support.

    D. Professional–development potential.

    4.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the programs?

    A. The programs can guarantee the employees a good job.

    B. The impact of the programs remains to be estimated.

    C. Employees will benefit more from the programs than companies.

    D. It’s less likely that employees will remain in the same company after receiving the programs.

    We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. __2.__ Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. ___3.__ If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.

    ___4.__ According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “__5.___”.

    A. A healthy body contributes to one’s intelligence.

    B. Parents should also be careful about what they say to young children.
