Since the Internet has come into homes,the daily life has never been the same again.But the thing that worries most of us is that we can get viruses from the Internet.Will we catch viruses on our cell phones? A new study in the journal Science says yes,but the spread of such mobile software that can bring harm to our cell phones won’t reach dangerous levels until more cell phones are on the same operating system.  

Computers are easily attacked by viruses because they share data,especially over the Internet.Of course,nowadays,more people are using their cell phones more and more frequently.They use them for emailing, text messaging and downloading troublesome ring tones,etc.So it is obvious that cell phone viruses are a threat,as well.

Scientists used nameless call data from more than six million cell phone users to help model a possible outbreak.And they concluded that viruses that spread from phone to phone by Bluetooth are not much concerned,because users have to be in close physical relation for their phones to“see”one another.However, viruses that spread through multimedia messaging services can move much faster,because they can come in disguise,such as a cool tune sent by a friend.The good news is that to be effective.These viruses need their victims to all use the same operating system,which not enough of us do,because there is no Microsoft operating system for mobile phones,yet.Thank goodness.

46.what does the underlined word“disguise”in the last paragraph mean?

    A.Surprise.    B.Danger.    C.Hiding the identity.D.Using the same system.

    B.It can help us to stop the spreading of cell phone viruses.

    C.It won’t possibly cause the outbreak of cell phone viruses.

    D.It can make users have close physical relation with one another.

49.We can learn from the passage that __________________   .

November 17 is an important day for black cats in Italy. An animal rights group has named that day as“Black Cat Day”to stop the killing of thousands of the cats. Why do people hate this animal So much? It is because people believe black cats bring bad luck if you see them walking across your path.

The black cat is just one of the symbols of superstition(迷信).You may already know that Western people don’t like the number 13.Besides knocking over a salt bottle,they also believe that walking under a ladder, opening an umbrella indoors and breaking a mirror can also bring bad luck.

According to Andrew Macaskill, who works for Teens, British people believe it is unlucky to see one magpie(喜鹊).But two bring good luck.“In Britain,people like to have a horseshoe over the door. They believe it can bring good luck. "Macaskill said. “But the horseshoe needs to be the right way up.The luck runs out if it is upside down.”

In the US.people usually spit on a new baseball bat before using it for the first time.They think this can bring good luck.Also,it is believed that good spirits live in trees.So by knocking on anything made from wood,people can call upon those spirits for protection against misfortune. People in the US also believe there are devils in brooms(扫帚). So don’t lean a broom against a bed.The evil spirits will cast a spell on the bed.

I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt’s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.

I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then.

The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times.”

My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.

From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.

Probiotic (益生菌) yoghurt(酸奶) and yoghurt drinks may not be as healthy as they   26    (claim) to be. The European Food Safety Authority (FESA) has found that there is not enough evidence    27    these products have a positive effect on the immune system and digestive health.

The    28    (produce) of these products have been claiming that these foods could help relieve digestive irregularity and improve the immune system. They have complained    29    the FESA standards, “Those must be the most strict standards, aren’t they?” However, their complaints don’t help consumers, who   30    (simple) want to know whether probiotic food products,    31    range from yoghurts and yoghurt drinks to dietary supplements, are likely to benefit their health.

Are you tired of traveling with family, friends, the loved one or passing acquaintances?

 Young people are grabbing their passports and trekking around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone with only their backpacks.

Kristina Wegscheider, from San Jose in California, the US, first traveled unaccompanied when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life.

 “It opens your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone,” said the 28­year­old, who works in human resources for a technology company.

 Foreign lands can be tricky to navigate at the best of times. With no one to help you read a map, look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, they are challenging.

 This is what drives young people to go alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.

 Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go backpacking last year.

 He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He says he wished he had gone on his own earlier.

 “The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I'm tackling a difficult task,” said the 30­year­old. “I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”

 One of the greatest concerns of young people who are considering traveling abroad unaccompanied is that they'll be lonely. Yet, young people are also fascinated by loneliness. Perhaps it is because they have grown up in a world where you are always contactable, and want to know what it's like to be cut off. Or, perhaps it's because they believe that only by being without distractions can you truly experience the world around you.

 The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said,“Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter.”

72.What's the main idea of the passage?

A.Traveling with backpacks appeals only to young people.

B.Traveling is what everyone should do at least once in life.

C.Traveling alone can get one into the heart of the wilderness.

D.Travel alone with baggage left behind.

73.The underlined word in the second paragraph means ________.

A.learning foreign cultures                          B.flying

C.hiking                                                   D.making new friends

74.Which of the following is NOT the benefit of traveling alone?

A.It opens up your mind to new things.

B.It makes others believe you can make it on your own.

C.It is beneficial to building up your character.

D.It will leave you in the wilderness as if you are cut off.

75.What can we infer from the last but one paragraph?   

A.Being alone does great harm to the young when traveling.

B.Loneliness is the only concern of young people traveling alone.

C.No youths have ever experienced being cut off before.

D.Regardless of loneliness, young people like challenging themselves by traveling alone.
