  E-mail systems at thousands of companies and government offices around the world were attacked by a virus called“Mellissa”that disguises itself as“important message”from a friend.

  Even though there was a weekend warning, more than 50,000 companies at about 100 places around the world have been attacked by the virus, computer experts said on Monday.

  The virus began to show up last Friday and spread rapidly the next first workday by making computers send off dozens of e-mails containing the virus.Although the virus had no long-lasting damage to a computer, its effects were far-reaching.

  Michael Vatis, a senior US official said military and government computers were damaged, along with thousands of the other institutions systems.

  The body of e-mail message says,“here is what you ask for---”once the user opens it, the virus digs into the users address book and sends out messages to the first 50 address.The reason why the virus spreads so rapidly is that you're getting it from people you know and trust.So anyone who gets an unexpected e-mail with the“Important Message”subject line is advised not to open it and to delete it immediatel.

“I Love You”Virus

On May 21,1999,some American scientists were working at the computers to look for information they needed.Suddenly they saw a lot of very bright red spots crossing the computers’screens.At the same time the computers were working much slower.To find out what was happening they stopped their work to check some parts of the computers.To their horror,they found out that most of their stored information was got rid of by computer virus! Obviously all these computers had been infected by computer virus.

It is said that the computer virus was made by two or three Philippine young men fond of playing tricks.They all had excellent education.They created the virus just to show their intelligence.The kind of computer virus is named“I Love You”Virus.This virus can hide in computers for long.When the time comes it will attack the computers by lowering the important functions,damaging their normal programs or even getting rid of a great deal of information which operators of the computers often use or store;even worse,it still can reproduce itself in great quantities within a short time.

We come to know that “I Love You”Virus often attacks computers on Mondays and that it is spreading to many computers in the world.Among the countries that suffered computer viruses last year are Britain,Australia,Switzerland and the US.Those who made the computer viruses have been found out slowly and carefully.But till now,how to get rid of the terrible viruses remains a problem.

61.In 1999,the virus made American scientists’information______.

A.all lost            B.partly lost                  C.none lost        D.mostly lost

62.The most terrible character“I Love You”Virus is______.

A.it can hide in computers for long

B.it can damage computer’s normal programs

C.it can get rid of all the information that the operator stores

D.it can reproduce itself in great quantities in a short time

63.All the following countries have been attacked by“I Love You”Virus EXCEPT______.

A.Britain            B.Australia                   C.Switzerland     D.Japan

64.According to the passage,which is NOT true about“I Love You”Virus?

A.Have found who made it                      B.Have found the solution to it

C.Have been attacked by it                      D.Have no effective method to it

Scientist Florence Wambugu works with farmers in Kenya, a country in East Africa.  She helps them grow bigger and better crops. Wambugu is especially interested in finding simple ways to produce more food.

In the past ten years, Wambugu has spent much of her time studying sweet potatoes, which are an important food in her part of Kenya. A virus kept attacking the plants. It stopped the sweet potatoes from growing well. Because of the virus, some farmers lost three quarters of their crops.

Wamugu went to war against the virus. Her search for a way to save the sweet potatoes led to a lab in St.Louis, Missouri.

The lab mainly works on genes, the chemical “computer programs” found in the cells of living things. Genes tell a plant to produce pink flowers or an animal to grow black hair. Now scientists have found ways to move genes from one living thing to another. That process is called genetic engineering.

Wambugu spent three years in the lab. As a result, she created a sweet potato plant that could fight off the virus. Wambugu tested her research in Kenya, and her plants produced wonderful sweet potatoes.

That’s just the beginning, Wambugu believes. Genetically modified foods, she thinks, could help farmers in poor countries grow badly needed crops, thus, fewer people will go hungry.

41.     The text is written mainly to _________

A. tell us sweet potatoes are in danger of being attacked by virus

B. introduce Wambugu’s contribution to genetic engineering

C.introduce a new way of killing plant viruses

D. tell how hard Wambugu worked in her lab for three years

42.     What caused Wambugu to set up a lab in St. Louis, Missouri?

A. Her wish to save sweet potatoes in Kenya.

B. Her great interest in genetic engineering.

C. Her love for sweet potatoes.

D. Her interest in plant life.

43.     The fourth paragraph mainly explains what _________is.

A. a crop virus              B. chemical technology

C. a computer program       D. genetic engineering

44.     What is Wambugu’s attitude toward “genetic engineering”?

A. It will help more hungry people.

B. It should be carefully used.

C. It has more disadvantages than advantages.

D. It is a too expensive technology at present.

45.     According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A. Florence Wambugu often helps farmers with their work.

B. Florence Wambugu has studied sweet potatoes for 10 years.

C. Genes can be moved from one thing to another.

D. Florence Wambugu has succeeded in creating genetically modified sweet potatoes.
