       Steve Paul Jobs was an American businessman and widely recognized as a pioneer of the personal computer revolution. He was co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Company. His death is a great loss to us. The following is some more information about him.

61.    

       After Apple’s founding, Steve Jobs became a symbol of his company and industry. At the time of his resignation, and again after his death, he was widely described as a pioneer and genius perhaps one of the foremost-in the field of business, creation and product design, and a man who had changed the face of the modern world, completely changed at least six different industries. His death was considered a loss to the world by commentators(评论家) across the globe.

62.    

       Memorial candles and iPads to Steve Jobs lie outside the Apple Store in Palo Alto, California. Apple has lost a creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve Jobs have lost a dear friend and an inspiring guide. Steve jobs leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.

63.    

       As is still clearly remembered, it was not long before Steve Jobs left his office as CEO of Apple. But he remained at the company as chairman of the company’s board. Hours after the announcement, Apple shares dropped by five percent in after-hour trading. The relatively small drop, when considering the importance of Steve Jobs to Apple, was associated with the fact that his health h ad been in the news for several years, and he was on medical leave since January 2011.

64.    

       Steve Jobs took a job as a technician at Atari company in California in 1974. He traveled to India in the summer of 1974. Seven months later, he returned to Atari and was assigned to create a circuit board for the game Breakout. With Wozniak, the founder of Atari, Steve Jobs began attending meetings of the Homebrew Computer Club where he got to know Edwin H. Land, the inventor of instant photography and founder of Polaroid Corporation, and modeled his career after him.

65.   

       Apple announced that it would buy NeXT for $429 million. The deal was finally made in late 1996, bringing Steve Jobs back to the company he co-founded. In order to concentrate Apple’s efforts, Steve Jobs stopped a number of projects. With the purchase of NeXT, much of the company’s technology found its way into Apple products. Under his guidance the company increased sales significantly with the introduction of the iMac and other new products. Since then, appealing designs and powerful branding hve worked well for Apple.

The policeman moved up the avenue impressively. It was barely 10 o’clock at night, but the chilly wind with rain had kept people out of the streets.

The policeman suddenly slowed his walk. In the doorway of a darkened store a man leaned, with an unlighted cigar in his mouth. As the policeman walked up to him the man spoke up quickly.

“It’s all right, officer,” he said, “I’m just waiting for a friend. It’s an appointment made twenty years ago. Well, about that long ago there used to be a restaurant where this store stands —‘Big Joe’ Brady’s restaurant.”

“Until five years ago,” said the policeman. “It was torn down then.”

The man in the doorway struck a match and lit his cigar. The light showed a pale, square-jawed face with keen eyes, and a little white scar near his right eyebrow. His scarf pin was a large diamond.

“Twenty years ago tonight,” said the man. “I dined here at ‘Big Joe’ Brady’s with Jimmy Wells, my best friend, and the finest guy in the world. He and I were raised here in New York, just like two brothers, together. I was eighteen and Jimmy was twenty. The next morning I was to start for the West to make my fortune. You couldn’t have dragged Jimmy out of New York; he thought it was the only place on earth. Well, we agreed that night that we would meet here again exactly twenty years from that date and time, no matter what our conditions might be or from what distance we might have to come. We figured that in twenty years each of us ought to have our fortunes made, whatever they were going to be.”

“It sounds pretty interesting,” said the policeman. “Rather a long time between meets, though, it seems to me. Haven’t you heard from your friend since you left?”

“Well, yes, for a time we corresponded,” said the other. “But after a year or two we lost track of each other. Yet I know Jimmy will meet me here if he’s alive, for he always was the truest guy in the world. He’ll never forget. I came a thousand miles to stand in this door tonight, and it’s worth it if my old partner turns up.”

The policeman twirled his club(警棍) and took a step or two, saying: “I’ll be on my way. Hope your friend comes around all right.”

“I’ll give him half an hour at least. If Jimmy is alive he’ll be here by that time. So long, officer.”

“Good-night, sir,” the policeman went away.

The man who had come a thousand miles to fill an appointment with the friend of his youth, smoked his cigar and waited.

About twenty minutes he waited, and then a tall man in a long overcoat, with collar tuned up to his ears, hurried across from the opposite side of the street. He went directly to the waiting man.

“Is that you, Bob?” he asked, doubtfully.

“Is that you, Jimmy Wells?” cried the man in the door.

“Bless my heart!” exclaimed the new arrival, grasping both the other’s bands with his own. “It’s Bob, sure as fate. I was certain I’d find you here, Well, twenty years is a long time.”

“You’ve changed lots, Jimmy. I never thought you were so tall by two or three inches.”

“Oh, I grew a bit after I was twenty. Come on, Bob; we’ll go around to a place I know of, and have a good long talk about old times.”

The two men started up the street, arm in arm. The man from the West, his egotism(自负) enlarged by success, was beginning to outline the history of his career. The other, hidden in his overcoat, listened with interest.

At the corner stood a drug store, brilliant with electric lights. When they came in, each of them turned to gaze upon the other’s face.

The man from the West stopped suddenly and released his arm.

“You’re not Jimmy Wells,” he said sharply. “Twenty years is a long time, but not long enouth to change a man’s nose from straight to flat.”

The tall man said, “You’ve been under arrest for ten minutes, Bob. Chicago thinks you may have dropped over our way and asks us to have a chat with you. Going quietly, are you? That’s sensible. Now, before we go on to the station here’s a note to you. You may read it here at the window. It’s from Patrolman （巡警） Wells.”

The man from the West unfolded the little piece of paper. His hand was steady when he began to read, but it trembled a little when he had finished. The note was rather short.

“Bob: I was at the appointed place on time. When you struck the match to light your cigar I saw it was the face of the man wanted in Chicago. Somehow I couldn’t do it myself, so I went around and got a plain clothes man to do the job. JIMMY.”

       Has the threat of cyber(网络)-war entered a significant new stage? Look at the reports of activity on the digital battlefield. Cyberspace, some call it the new field of war, after land, sea, air and space. The 2010 Stuxnet(蠕虫病毒) cyber-attack on Iran’s uranium enrichment plant(铀浓缩厂), suspected to have come from Israel or the US, seemed to confirm the existence of this kind of war.

       Stuxnet raised the fear of cyber-attack. The recently discovered computer virus called Duqu Trojan, which contains some Stuxnet code, is built to steal information about computers controlling industrial palnts. IT security experts suspect Duqu came from the same source as Stuxnet, and may be seeking weak points for future attack.

       Despite all this activity, the nature of cyber-threats remains unclearly described. Experts have been warning for years about dangers of being attacked in US government and private computer networks. In 2009, Obama launched a 60-day cyberspace security review to assess the threats. It concluded they were horrible, and urged the government to figh the threat under the direction of the US National Security Council, along with cooperation with other countries and private industry.

       Firewalls guarding US military(军事) information are attacked mercilessly, sometimes successfully. “Over the past decade, large quantities of data have been taken out by foreign hackers,” then US vice defense secretary William Lynn said in July. A single such attack in March saw 24,000 files stolen. Yet cyber-war goes far beyond this activity. There is industrial spying; criminal attacks, including stealing military secrets; and selling fake military parts on the internet, which can damage or destroy equipment. Opposition groups create their own threats. Thus security must go far beyond protecting government documents and facilities.

       Unavoidable offence is studied too, secretly. But governments are unwilling to attack openly. News reports in the US claimed that Barack Obama’s administration chose not to launch a cyber-attack against Libyan air defenses in March. “The US decision not to aim at Libya was largely political,” says James Lewis, a White House high official. Also, he adds, Obama did not want to be the first to openly launch a new form of war. October saw a great deal of talk about cyber-war. Also in October, the US Department of Defense announced that the country’s highest military officers were reviewing the rules of engagement for cyber-war. A few days later, another report suggested a certain country may have launched a cyber-attack against two US civilian satellites.

       Caution and a focus on defense make sense. Computer technology spreads fast. It does not pay to attack if your weapons can be turned against you. The computer virus Duqu Trojan is troublesome, but more extensive Stuxnet cyber-attack could lead to a real cyber-war.

       I was brought up in the British, stiff upper lip style. Strong feelings aren’t something you display in public. So, you can imagine that I was unprepared for the outpouring of public grief(悲伤) at a Chinese funeral.

       My editorial team leader died recently after a short illness. He was 31. The news was so unexpected that it left us all shocked and upset. A female colleague burst into tears and cried piteously at her desk. Somehow we got through the day's work. The next day was the funeral.

       Our big boss stepped forward to deliver a eulogy and was soon in tears. She carried on, in Chinese of course, but at the end said in English: "There will be no more deadlines for you in heaven." Next came a long-term colleague who also dissolved in tears but carried on with her speech despite being almost overcome by emotion. Then a close friend of the dead man paid tribute(哀悼), weeping openly as he spoke. Sorrow is speading. Me and women were now sobbing uncontrollably. Finally, the man's mother, supported between two women, addressed her son in his coffin. At one point, the mother almost collapsed and had to be held up. We were invited to step forward to each lay a white rose on the casket. Our dead colleague looked as if he was taking a nap. At the end of the service I walked away from the funeral parlor stunned at the outpouring of emotion.

       In the UK, families grieve privately and then try to hold it together and not break down at a funeral. Here in China it would seem that grieving is a public affair. It strikes me that it is more cathartic to cry your eyes out than try to keep it bottled up for fear of embarrassment, which is what many of us do in the West.

       Afterwards, a Chinese colleague told me that the lamenting at the funeral had been restrained(克制) by Chinese standards. In some rural areas, she said, people used to be paid to mourn noisily. This struck me like something out of novel by Charles Dickens. But we have all seen on TV scenes of grief-stricken people in Gaza and the West Bank, in Afghanistan, Iraq and the relatives of victims of terrorist bombings around the world. Chinese grief is no different. I realized that it's the reserved British way of mourning that is out of step with the rest of the world.

       It was our newspaper's production day. We were bussed back to the office to resume work. No more deadlines for our former colleague, but we had to pull together to put the newspaper to print. The boss invited the team to go out for dinner after work. We relaxed, smiled, joked. There was no mention of the funeral or our poor colleague. Enough sorrow had been shed already. We needed a break.

41．The underlined words “stiff upper lip style” mean “       ”.

       A．cold-blooded         B．warm-hearted       C．self-controlled       D．light-hearted

42．At the funeral,         .

       A．five individuals made speeches               B．the boss’s speech was best thought of

       C．everyone was crying out loudly                D．the writer was astonished by the scene

43．According to the writer, people in the West      .

       A．are not willing to be sad for the dead     B．prefer to control their sadness in public

       C．cry their eyes out at the public funeral   D．have better way to express sadness

44．It is implied that        .

       A．the English might cry noisily for the dead in Dickens’ time

       B．Chinese express their sadness quite unlike other peoples

       C．victims of terrorist bombings should be greatly honored

       D．English funeral culture is more civilized than the others

45．This passage talks mainly about          .

       A．an editor’s death                                     B．bad funeral customs
