MedicineCA Strange Illness D. Twelve HoursCE-mail systems at thousands of companies and government offices around the world were attacked by a virus(病毒)called “Melissa” that disguises(伪装)itself as an “important message”from a friend. In spite of a weekend of warnings，more than 50 000 computers at about 100 places around the world have been attacked by the virus，computer security experts said on Monday. The virus began to show up last Friday and spread rapidly on Monday by making computers fire off dozens of infected(被传染的)e-mails. Although the virus causes no serious damage to a computer, its effect was far reaching. To make matters worse, a similar virus called “Papa” was discovered on Monday. Papa is programmed to send out even more infected e-mails than Melissa. The Melissa virus comes in the form of an e-mail, usually containing the subject line“Important Message”. It appears to be from a friend. The body of the e-mail message says，“Here is that document you asked for., dont show it to anyone else.” Attached(附)to the message is a document file. Once the user opens that file, the virus digs into the users address book and sends infected documents to the first 50 addresses. E-mails from the Papa virus include an attached spreadsheet(电子数据文件)file. When the user opens that file, the virus sends 60 infected e-mails. The reason why this is spreading so fast is that you are getting it from people you know. You should never open documents or attachments from people you dont know. People who get an unexpected e-mail with the “important message” subject line should delete it immediately and not open the message.28. Thousands of computers were attacked by the Melissa virus _.A. covered with an important messageB. under cover of a message needing immediate attentionC. under the clothes of an important e-mailD. with a beautiful coat29. The Melissa virus made a computer _.A. receive tens of bad e-mailsB. fire at many sick e-mail messagesC. send out scores of infected messagesD. burn with a fire because of many infected e-mails30.

If you opened an infected file by Melissa virus，the virus would _.A. damage the users address book at onceB. soon spread through the users list of addressC. let the first 50 addresses go out of the computerD. change the users address book in the computerDNorah had a cottage on a cliff above a big bay. In winter it could be very nasty because of strong winds and sea spray. In fact, when a gale was blowing, Norah and her husband got used to sleeping in a small room downstairs, because their bedroom upstairs, which faced the gales, had a very big window, and they were afraid that an extra violent gust might break it and blow pieces of broken glass over them. Also, the salt spray from the sea put an end to many of the colourful plants Norah planted in her garden. She tried putting up a fence to protect them, but the wind just hit it, went up over the top and then down the other side, so in the end she filled the garden with trees and bushes that liked salt. But most of the summer Norah enjoyed her cottage and garden very much. At weekends she could sit out of doors in the sun, looking at the beautiful view, with interesting ships and boats passing by, and she could very easily cycle down to the sea for a swim. Now, Norah and her husband had plenty of friends and relations. In the summer lots of them used to come to enjoy the beautiful place, and in the end it really became quite annoying for Norah and her husband. When they were at home, they found friends and relations arriving, expecting to be given unlimited drinks and meals, and to sit in the sun for hours, talking as if Norah and her husband had nothing else to do but entertain and listen to them. This went on for several years. Norah did not wish to appear rude by refusing to let her friends and relations in, but on the other hand, she was getting tired every summer.Then one day Norah was complaining about this to her hairdresser while she was doing her hair. “Youre disturbed by too many uninvited guests, are you?” said the hairdresser. “Why dont you try my way of escaping?” “Whats that?” asked Norah.“Well,” the hairdresser answered, “when the bell rings, I put on my coat and take my shopping bag. If its someone I dont want to see, I say innocently, Im sorry, but Ive got to go out. But.”32. The underlined word “cycle” can be replaced by_.A. ride by bike B. drive C. walkD. go by ship33. We can infer that_.A. a lot of friends came to visit them in winterB. few friends came to visit them in winterC. friends came to visit them only for drinks and mealsD. Norah was a good cook34. Which of the following is the best title ？A. A Good Place of Enjoying the SeaB. A Warm-hearted CoupleC. A Clever Way of EscapingD. A Visit to Norah 35. What is the hairdresser likely to continue to say in the end? A. If I am tired, I say, “Sorry, can you come next time?”B. If its someone I like to see, I say, “How lucky! Ive just come in!”C. If its someone I like to see, I say, “How happy to see you! I was going shopping, but now Ive changed my mind.”D. If it is fine that day, I say, “Im tired of this, but Ill show you around the place, anyhow.”第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Womens Sports Foundation has discovered that sports offer some other benefits(益处) for girls besides having fun and getting fit.
