a new study in the journal science says yes, but the spread of such mobile software that can bring harm to our cell phones wont 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. 17. whats the passage mainly about? a. the operating system of cell phones. b. the threat of cell phone viruses. c. the wide use of cell phones. d. computer viruses. 18. when _, cell phone viruses can be dangerous. a. all the cell phones work on the same operating systemb. microsoft operating system for cell phones is createdc. users can see each other on the phone d. bluetooth is widely used19. what can we infer about bluetooth according to the scientists? a. it can increase the chances of cell phone viruses greatly. b. it can help us to stop the spreading of cell phone viruses. c. it wont possibly cause the outbreak of cell phone viruses. d. it can make users have close physical relation with one another. 20. we can learn from the passage that_. a. it is impossible to catch viruses on our cell phonesb. cell phones are not well connected with the internetc. it is dangerous for people to download ring tones to cell phonesd. more than one operating system is available for cell phone users nowunit 2a（2012哈尔滨模拟)flight distance any observant people have noticed that a wild animal will allow a man or other potential enemy to approach only up to a given distance before it escapes. “flight distance” is the term used for this interspecies spacing. as a general rule, there is a positive relationship between the size of an animal and its flight distancethe larger the animal, the greater the distance it must keep between itself and the enemy. an antelope will escape when the enemy is as much as five hundred yards away. the wall lizards flight distance, on the other hand, is about six feet. flight is the basic means of survival for mobile creatures. critical distance critical distance apparently is present wherever and whenever there is a flight reaction. “critical distance” includes the narrow zone separating flight distance from attack distance. a lion in a zoo will flee from an approaching man until it meets a barrier that it cannot overcome. if the man continues the approach, he soon penetrates（穿过，透过）the lions critical distance, at which point the cornered lion turns back and begins slowly stalking（逼近）the man. social distance social animals need to stay in touch with each other. loss of contact with the group can be fatal （致命的）for a variety of reasons including exposure to enemies. social distance is not simply the distance at which an animal will lose contact with its groupthat is, the distance at which it can no longer see, hear, or smell the groupit is rather a psychological distance, one at which the animal apparently begins to feel anxious when it goes beyond its limits. we can think of it as a hidden band that contains the group. social distance varies from species to species. it is quite shortapparently only a few yardsamong some animals, and quite long among others. social distance is not always rigidly（刻板地）fixed but is determined in part by the situation. when the young of apes and humans are mobile but not yet under control of the mothers voice, social distance may be the length of her reach. this is readily observed among baboons（狒狒）in a zoo. when the baby approaches a certain point, the mother reaches out to seize the end of its tail and pull it back to her. when added control is needed because of danger, social distance shortens. to show this in man, one has only to watch a family with a number of small children holding hands as they cross a busy street. 1. which of the following is the most suitable explanation to “flight distance”? a. distance between animals of the same species before escaping. b. distance between large and small animals before escaping. c. distance between an animal and its enemy before escaping. d. distance between certain animal species before escaping. 2. if a lions critical distance is penetrated, it will _. a. begin to attackb. try to hidec. begin to jumpd. run away3. the example of the children holding hands when crossing the street in the last paragraph shows that _. a. social distance is not always neededb. there is no social distance among childrenc. humans are different from animals in social distanced. social distance is sometimes determined by outside factors4. which of the following can be the best title of the passage? a. critical distanceb. spacing in animalsc. relationship between animalsd. psychological distanceb（2012沈阳四校模拟) im a volunteer for the american diabetes (糖尿病) association(ada). i am on the planning committee for a one-day cycling event called “tour de cure”. its sponsored by the ada and the profits（利润） of this event are used for diabetes research and program funding. while i was talking to people about our “tour de cure” event in downtown denver one day, i met a young boy wearing a red hat from oklahoma named jack. i think he was 1011 years old. it was the jar of red rubber wrist bands (the american diabetes association diabetes awareness wrist bands) that caught jacks eyes. these are the bands we give out to people who have diabetes, who have a family member who has diabetes or to those people who know someone who has diabetes. people wear these for a variety of reasons: in memory of a loved one, to promote diabetes awareness and to show support for people who have diabetes. jack walked towards me eyeing the jar and then he said, “can i have one of those? ” so, i replied to jack, “do you have someone in your family who has diabetes? ” jack said, “no, but i know someone who has diabetes. ” so i gave him one to wear for his friend. then, jack began looking at our “tour de cure” photo album. when jack had finished and was about to go, he looked up at me and said, “would you take a donation? ” i was surprised to hear this from a 1011-year-old boy, but i said, “yes. ” i took the lid of our donation container off as jack was reaching into his pocket. his hand came out clinched around the donation he was about to make. it was my impression that what he had in his hand was everything he had in his pocket, as he did not count it. after jack dropped his donation into the container, i gave him a high- five, as i so often do to acknowledge an accomplishment or an appreciation. i also gave him a handshake before he parted. after jack left, i counted his gift$3. 00. i then realized that he gave all he had, without counting the cost. the heart of the child made me smile that day. thank yo
