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 viruses. Obviously all these computers had been infected by computer viruses. Its said that the computer viruses were made by two or three Philippine young men fond of playing tricks. They all had excellent education. They created the viruses just to show their intelligence. The kind of computer viruses 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, whats 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 U.S. 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.56. When the viruses attack the computers, the computers will work_. A. normally B. abnormally C. faster D. well57. Two or three Philippine young men created the computer viruses to_. A. damage the computers B. test their ability C. tell the world that they were intelligent D. play a trick on operations of the computers58. According to the passage, computer viruses seem to _.A. have been in nature for years B. exit in any computersC. be able to be got rid of in the near future D. be difficult to get rid of at present59. The most serious damage caused by the viruses is that_.A. the computers functions are lowered B. the normal programs are damagedC. all the information stored in the computers is goneD. the computers infected by the viruses can no longer be usedBHow do American babies get their names when they are born?Wed better know the formation of American names before we answer this question. A native American may have his name in two or three parts. Ronald Reagan, the 40th President of the United States, had his name in two parts. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the 32nd President, had his name in three parts. The first part is the given name, or the first name. The second part is the middle name or middle names, as Delano in Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The last part is the family name, surname or the last name, as Reagan in Ronald Reagan. How does an American baby get his given name? Generally, when an American baby is born, the parents may pick up a name from a name book, or think of a name they like, and give it to the baby as the given name. Sometimes, the given name means something. If a girl babys given name is Alice, then she is hoped to be noble or cheerful, because Alice means noble and of good cheer. If the parents give their daughter Linda as the first name, then the parents hope their daughter to be pretty or beautiful, because it means that. If a boys given name is David, then he could be his parents beloved one, because David means a beloved person. But sometimes, the given name is just a given name, and it doesnt mean anything. In another case, parents can give their baby the given name according to their hobby or desire. Then how do American babies get their middle names? We must take peoples relationship into consideration when we answer this question. If the parents respect or hope to remember the grandparent, then they give their baby a middle name after the grandmother or grandfather. If the parents have a very close friend, they may pick their baby a middle name after their friend. Some parents name their baby after themselves. Some even give the baby a middle name according to a famous person. So a baby may have one or two or even more middle names if the parents wish. A baby gets his family name after his fathers family name. If the fathers family name is Smith, then the babys family name will be Smith, too.60. The underlined phrase “in another case” means _. A. for another example B. on the contrary C. in addition D. in case 61 . From the name “Linda Smith” we know that _.A .Its a girl B. Her parents names are Smith. C. Her parents want her to be pretty or beautifulD. All the above 62. Which of the following sentences shows the main idea of this passage?A. How do American babies get their names when they are born?B. Wed better know the formation of American names. C. Sometimes the given name doesnt mean anything. D. Parents give their baby the given name according to their hobby or desire.63. Which of the following is true about American names?A. Each American name has 3 parts: the first name, the middle name and the last name.B. A babys given name is usually the same as his/her grandparent.C. Parents may pick up a name for the baby after their friend has found one. D. A baby may have 2 or 3 middle names.CThere are some stock markets(股票市场) in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock market, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or a company. And each share means certain ownership of a factory or a company. Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks and try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money.Of course, investing(投资) money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money. No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or a company does a good job, the stock may still go down.No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling(赌博). All are eager to make money by gambling in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are please that so many people are willing to gamble. Indeed, the stock market is an attractive part of the business world. 64. If you are investor, you _ in the stock market. A. can always make money B. can tell exactly when the stock goes up or down C. may sometimes lose money D. your gambling is always safe65.

Which of the following is NOT right? A. Going to the stock market is like gambling. B. The stocks will always go up if a factory or company does a good job. C. People who are not rich will possibly become rich by buying or selling stocks. D. People buy or sell stocks in the hope of making money.67. Factories and companies are pleased that so many people gamble, because_. A. they can make them rich B. they need more people to work for them C. they need their money to do business D. some people win and some loseDA few months ago, millions of people in London heard alarms all over the townThe Emergency services, the Fire Departments, the Police, hospitals, and ambulances stood by, ready to go into actionIn railway underground stations, people read notices and maps that told them where to go and what to do in the emergencyThis was Exercise Flood Call, to prepare people for a flood emergencyLondon wasnt flooded yet, but it is possible that it would beIn 1236 and in 1663, London was badly floodedIn 1928, people living in Westminster, the heart of London, drowned in floodsAnd in 1953, one hundred people, living on the eastern edge of the London suburbs were killed, again, in the floodsAt last, Greater London Council took actions to prevent this disaster from happening againThough a flood wall was built in the 1960s, Londoners still must be prepared for the possible disasterIf it happens, 50 underground stations will be under waterElectricity, gas and phone services will be out of actionRoads will be drownedIt will be impossible to cross any of the bridges between north and south LondonImagine: London will look like the famous Italian city, VeniceBut this Exercise Flood Call didnt cause panic among LondonersMost people knew it was just a warningOne lady said, “Its a flood warning, isnt it?
