Ashenden knew several European languages and the fact that he was a writer provided excellent cover: on the pretext that he was writing a book he could, without attracting attention, visit any neutral country. It was while they were discussing this point that the Colonel said, You know you might get material that would be very useful to you in your work. Ill tell you an incident that occurred only recently. Very dramatic. A foreign government minister went down to a Mediterranean resort to recover from a cold and he had some very important documents with him that he kept in a dispatch case(公文箱). A day or two after he arrived, he picked up a beautiful blonde at some restaurant or other, and he got very friendly with her. He took her back to his hotel, and when he came to himself in the morning, the lady and the dispatch-case had disappeared. They had one or two drinks up in his room and his theory is that when his back was turned the woman slipped a drug in his glass. Do you mean to say that happened the other day? said Ashenden. The week before last. Impossible, cried Ashenden. Why! Weve been putting that incident on the stage for sixty years, weve written it in a thousand novels. Do you mean to say that life has only just caught up with us? Well, I can guarantee the truth of the story. said the Colonel, And believe me, the government has been put to no end of trouble by the loss of the documents. Well sir, if you cant do better than that in the Secret Service, sighed Ashenden, Im afraid that as a source of inspiration to the writer of fiction, its washout.51How did the Colonel suggest that Ashendens being a writer would relate to his work as a spy?A.

Although they did not admit any wrongdoing, they each agreed to pay thousands of dollars to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).“I dont believe that I did anything wrong,” said Daniel Peng at Princeton University, one of the four. “I hope that for the sake of artists, the larger issues can soon be resolved.” None appears to have made any money off the file-sharing systems they operated, which were confined to their campuss computer networks.The payments mark the first time record companies have recovered money from individuals in the US accused of piracy on file-sharing networks. This may be a sign of things to come, as the industry starts taking its battle against online piracy directly to users.Many record-company executives(主管) blame the long slump in CD sales on file-sharing networks, which let users copy songs from each others computers for free.Matt Oppenheim, senior vice president of business and legal affairs for the RIAA, said the settlements, although well below what the companies could have asked for, were “the right amount” given the situation.He also noted that since the four lawsuits were filed, at least 18 campus file-sharing networks have been taken down by their operators.59What does “a hidden price tag” (Paragraph 1) mean? A. Record companies intentionally hide the high price of the music. B. It happens that the music price tag isnt obvious. C. One has to pay for having downloaded music freely at last. D. One has to pay for the music in the future even if its allowed to be downloaded freely now.60Which of the following is true? A. The four students planned to violate the companys copyright. B. They realized they had done a wrong thing. C. They refused to pay money to RIAA. D. They didnt make any money on file-sharing networks.61Whats the probable meaning of “slump” (Paragraph 6)? A. Decline. B. Increase. C. Keeping the same. D. Jump.62Whats the main idea of the whole passage? A. The students should be responsible for their behavior. B. Its too late for record companies to protect their rights.C. Record companies have taken action to protect their copyrights by accusing individuals of piracy on file-sharing networks.D. Some record companies wanted to earn money by accusing people of pirating music.DIm usually fairly sceptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any of these statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, I was struck by a report which concluded that todays children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s. In fact, the analysis showed normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago. Why are Americas kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physical isolation brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among other things and a growing perception (看法) that the world is a more dangerous place. Considering that we cant turn the clock back, adults can still do plenty to help the next generation cope(应付). At the top of the list is nurturing（培养）a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No child is an island. Strengthening social ties help build communities and protect individuals against stress. To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers. Your family will thank you later. They will have more time for face-to-face relationships, and they will get more sleep. Limit the amount of virtual violence your children are expected to. Its not just from video games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news. Keep your expectations for your daily routine. It will help you cope with your own anxiety and provide a good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesnt have to ruin your life.63The author thinks that the conclusions of any research about peoples state of mind are _.A. surprising B. confusing C. illogical D. questionable64What does the author mean by saying “we cant turn the clock back” (Para 3)?A. Its impossible to slow down the pace of change.B. The social reality children are facing cant be changed.C. Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten.D. Its impossible to forget the past.65The first and most important thing parents should do to help their children is _.A. to provide them with a safer environmentB. to lower their expectations for themC. to get them more involved sociallyD. to set a good model for them to follow66Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Sometimes local news about murder and crime also affects children a little.B. TVs and computers play an important role in isolating children from the real world.C. To children, anxiety is completely avoidable.D. Exercise does not help to lessen childrens anxiety.EJust five one-hundredths of an inch thick, light golden in color and with a perfect “saddle curl,” the Lays potato chip seems an unlikely weapon for global domination. But its maker, Frito-Lay, thinks otherwise. “Potato chips are a snack food for the world,” said Salman Amin, the companys head of global marketing. Amin believes there is no corner of the world that can resist the charms of a Frito-Lay potato chip.Frito-Lay is the biggest snack maker in America owned by PepsiCo and accounts for over half of the parent companys $3 billion annual profits. But the U.S. snack food market is largely saturated, and to grow the company has to look overseas.Its strategy rests on two beliefs: first a global product offers economies of scale with which local brands cannot compete. And second, consumers in the 21st century are drawn to “global” as a concept. “Global” does not mean products that are consciously identified as American, but ones that consumes-especially young people are linked across cultures by shared beliefs and tastes. Potato chips are an American invention, but most Chinese, for instance, do not know that Frito-Lay is an American company. Instead, Riskey, the companys research and development head, would hope they associate the brand with the new world of global communications and business.With brand perception a crucial(决定性的) factor, Riskey ordered a redesign of the Frito-Lay logo(标识).The logo, along with the companys long-held marketing image of the “irresistibility” of its chips would help facilitate the companys global expansion.The executives acknowledge that they try to swing national eating habits to a food created in America, but they deny that amounts to economic imperialism(势力扩张). Rather, they see Frito-Lay as spreading the benefits of free enterprise across the world. “Were making products in those countries, were adapting them to the tastes of those countries, building businesses and employing people and changing lives,” said Steve Reinemund, PepsiCos chief executive.67It is the belief of F
