Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girl friend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is, they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen - the 21st century replacement of being caught naked.Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that its important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs(碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.The key question is: Does that matter?For many Americans, the answer apparently is yes.When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found a strong bad feeling about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is slipping away, and that bothers me.But people say one thing and do another. Only a tiny part of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths(收费站) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquisti has run a series oftests that reveal people will give away personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon(优惠券)。But privacy does matter - at least sometimes. Its like health: When you have it, you dont notice it. Only when its gone do you wish youd done more to protect it.36. What does the author mean by saying the 21st century replacement of being caught naked?A. Peoples personal information is easily accessed without their knowledge.B. In the 21st century people try every means to look into others secrets.C. People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age.D. Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology.37. What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?A. Friends should open their hearts to each other.B. Friends should always be faithful to each other.C. There should be a distance even between friends.D. There should be fewer arguments between friends.38. Why does the author say we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret？ A. Modern society has finally developed into an open society.B. People leave traces around when using modern technology.C. There are always people who are curious about others affairs.D. Many search engines benefit from giving away peoples identities.39. What do most Americans do as for privacy protection?A. They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.B. They use various loyalty cards for business transactions(交易).C. They rely most and more on electronic devices.D. They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.40. According to the passage, privacy is like health because _.A. people will make every effort to keep it.B. its importance is rarely understoodC. it is something that can easily be lostD. people dont treasure it until they lose itBThis hotel in the trees is famous in the world. People who know very little about Kenya（肯尼亚）know of Treetops . When King George VI died, Princess Elizabeth was staying on the Treetop, and when she came down from there, she succeeded to the queen of the country. This hotel, in the middle of the forest, shows the pleasure of Africa. When you visit it, you will be sent into the heart of the forest by local buses, and then a guide, with a gun to protect you, will go with you to the House on the Treetops. Before and after dinner, for the whole night if you wish, you can sit on the corridor（走廊）, watching animals come to the water pool and the salt. The earliest hotel Treetops was built round a large tree on the opposite side of the water, but this was destroyed by fire and the new hotel Treetops, which is built round several trees, is much bigger. The dinning room at Treetops is small, and as the waiters cannot walk round to serve guests, a clever “railway service ” has been invented . Guests take their food as it passes slowly in front of them, along a line in the center of the table. There are many animals around the Treetops. When you visit them, you can see: Animals and their babies are waiting to greet the guests. Animals are enjoying the Treetops pool in the daylight. A long bodied, long ring tailed, very active catlike animal is a special one coming out at night. He hurts and eats anything he can overpower and is very destructive. He comes for his food every evening. Do not get too near him, as his teeth and claws（爪）can do you harm . These animals can be trained and become lovely pets. Some other animals have a thick coating of fur to keep him warm in the cold forest nights. Many buffaloes（水牛）come to the Treetops for water and salt during the day or night. 41.

But when British people say that their society is based on family life, they are thinking of “family” in its narrow, peculiarly European sense of mother ,father and children living together alone in their own house as an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and independent familyhence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life. For both the man and the woman, marriage means leaving ones parents and starting ones own life. The mans first duty will then be to his wife, and the wifes to her husband. He will be entirely responsible for her financial support, and she for the running of the new home. Their children will be their common responsibility and theirs alone. Neither the wifes parents nor the husbands, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts or uncles, have any right to interfere with themthey are their own masters.Readers of novels like Jane Austens Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times marriage among wealthy families were arranged by the girls parents, that is, it was the parents duty to find a suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillful encouragement to lead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until that time, the girl was protected and maintained in the parents home, and the financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in their giving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry. It is very different today. Most girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially independent before their marriage. This has had two results. A girl chooses her own husband, and she gets no dowry.46. What does the author mean by “Family is of course an elastic word”?A. Different families have different ways of life.B.

Having taught in the US for 17 years，I have no doubt about my ability to hold their attention and to impress on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue. I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “stand up!” The entire class rose as I entered the room and l was somewhat confused about how to get them to sit down again，but once the embarrassment(尴尬) was over, I quickly regained my calmness and admiration. I went back to my office with the rosy glow which came from a strong sense of achievement. My students kept diaries. However, as I read them the rosy glow was gradually replaced by a strong sense of sadnessThe first diary said, “Our literature teacher didnt teach us anything today perhaps her next lecture will be better.” Greatly surprisedI read diary after diary, each expressing a similar theme. “Didnt I teach them anything? I described the entire Western philosophy and laid the historical background for all the works we will study in class,” I complained. “How should they say I didnt teach them anything?” It was a long term, and it gradually became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as those of my students. I thought a teachers job was to raise interesting questions and provide enough background so that students could draw their own conclusions. My students thought a teachers job was to provide exact information as directly and clearly as possible. What a difference! However, I also learned a lot，and the experience with my Chinese students has made me a better American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture.51.
