(C)

In the villages of the English countryside there are still people who remember the good old days when no one bothered to lock their doors. There simply wasn’t any crime to worry about.

Amazingly, these happy times appear still to be with us in the world’s biggest community. A new study by Dan Farmer, a gifted programmer, using an automated investigative program of his own called SATAN, shows that the owners of well over half of all World Wide Web sites have set up home without fitting locks to their doors. SATAN can try out a variety of well-known hacking tricks on an Internet site without actually breaking in. Farmer has made the program publicly available, amid much criticism. A person with evil intent could use it to hunt down sites that are easy to burgle.

But Farmer is very concerned about the need to alert the public to poor security and, so far, events have proved him right. SATAN has done more to alert people to the risks than cause new disorder.

So is the Net becoming more secure? Far from it. In the early days, when you visited a Web site your browser simply looked at the content. Now the web is full of tiny programs that automatically download when you look at a Web page, and run on your own machine. These programs could, if their authors wished, do all kinds of nasty things to your computer.

At the same time, the Net is increasingly populated with spiders, worms, agents, and other types of automated beasts designed to penetrate the sites and seek out and classify information. All these make wonderful tools for antisocial people who want to invade weak sites and cause damage.

But let’s look on the bright side. Given the lack of locks, the Internet is surely the world’s biggest (almost) crime-free society. Maybe that is because hackers are fundamentally honest. Or that there currently isn’t much to steal. Or because vandalism (蓄意破坏) isn’t much fun unless you have a peculiar dislike for someone.

Whatever the reason, let’s enjoy it while we can. But expect it all to change, and security to become the number one issue, when the most influential inhabitants of the Net are selling services they want to be paid for.

72. By saying “…owners of well over half of all World Wide Web sites have set up home without fitting locks to their doors” (Lines 3-4, Para. 2), the author means that

A. those happy times appear still to be with us B. there simply wasn’t any crime to worry about

A. to investigate the security of Internet sites B. to improve the security of the Internet system C. to prevent hackers from breaking into websites D. to download useful programs and information 74. Farmer’s program has been criticized by the public because .

A. it causes damage to Net browsers B. it can break into Internet sites

C. it can be used to cause disorder on all sites D. it can be used by people with evil intent 75. The author suggests in the last paragraph that . A. we should make full use of the Internet before security measures are strengthened

B. we should alert the most influential businessmen to the importance of guaranteeing quality of their services C. influential businessmen should give priority to the improvement of Net security

D. net inhabitants should not let security measures affect their joy of surfing the Internet

(D)

Whenever you see an old film, even one made as little as ten years ago, you cannot help being struck by the appearance of the women taking part. Their hair-styles and make-up look dated; their skirts look either too long or too short; their general appearance is, in fact, slightly ludicrous and seems to suggest that they belong to an entirely different age.

This illusion is created by changing fashions. Over the year, the great majority of men have successfully resisted all attempts to make them change their style of dress. The same cannot be said for women. Each year a few so-called top designers in Paris or London lay down the law and women all over the world rush to obey. The decrees of the designers are unpredictable and dictatorial. This year, they decide in their arbitrary fashion, skirts will be short and waists will be high; zips are in and buttons are out. Next year the law is reversed and far from taking exception, no one is even mildly surprised.

If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they shudder at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are annually black-mailed by the designers and the big stores. Clothes, which have been worn only a few times, have to be discarded because of the dictates of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a women is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.

Changing fashions are nothing more than the deliberate creation of waste. Many women squander vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women, who cannot afford to discard clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Hem-limes are taken up or let down; waist-lines are taken in or let out; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.

No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability. They take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, providing they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn’t at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shivering in a flimsy dress on a wintry day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in dainty shoes.

The fashion frenzy of women is so obvious that one may even wonder—do constantly changing fashions of women’s clothes, to some extent, reflect basic qualities of fickleness and instability? That is for you to decide. 76. What does “ludicrous” mean in Paragraph One?

A. fashionable B. glamorous C. absurd D. charming 77. Why are women mercilessly exploited by the fashion designers?

A. They love new fashion. B. They love new clothes. C. They want to look beautiful. D. They are too vain. 78. What are fashion designers interested in?

A. The constant changes in fashion reflect the qualities of women.

B. New fashions in clothing are created solely for commercial exploitation of women. C. The top designers seem to have the right to dictate the latest trend in fashion. D. Compared with women, men have the basic quality of reliability. 第 II 卷 ( 51 分) I. Recitation (6%)
