第5题:A

【解析】51.目的意图题。题干“作者的文章以‘科技是一把双刃剑’开始是为了____”,由此可知,本题问的是作者第1段写“科技是一把双刃剑”的目的。后文着重写技术带来的隐患——医疗信息泄露的问题,第2段第1句LastweekPresidentBillClintonproposedacorollarytothepatients’billofrightsnowbeforeCongress:arighttomedicalprivacy.(上周,克林顿总统向国会提出了《病人权利法案》的一个必然结果:医疗隐私权。)由此可知,作者写第1段是为了引出下文关于医疗隐私权的问题,即互联网技术可能带来的潜在问题,B选项“呼吁人们注意技术可能给我们带来的潜在危险”,表述符合题意。A选项“证明医生对技术的不当使用会导致不良结果”,可定位到第1段第2句Technologyallowsdoctorstotesttheirpatientsforgeneticdefects—andthentoturnaroundandspreadtheresultsthroughouttheworldviatheInternet.(技术允许医生检测他们的病人的基因缺陷,然后通过互联网将结果传遍全世界。)由此可知,科技这把双刃剑在医疗领域主要涉及医疗信息的便捷传播带来的影响,这并不是医生对技术的不当使用,选项表述错误,排除;C选项“提醒病人可能遭受的伤害”,表述不正确,作者侧重将医疗隐私泄漏的问题,与harm“(故意)伤害”还是有点区别,排除;D选项“展示技术的优点和缺点”,本文作者侧重讲技术的不良影响,该选项关于表述不够准确,排除。因此,本题最佳选项为B。

52.事实细节题。题干“根据克林顿总统的提议,患者还可以进行以下操作,除了____”,可定位到第2段。B选项“决定如何使用他们的医疗信息”,可定位到第2段第2句Beginningin2002,underrulessettobecomelawinFebruary,patientswouldbeabletostipulatetheconditionsunderwhichtheirpersonalmedicaldatacouldbedivulged.(从2002年开始,根据2月即将生效的法规,病人将有权规定透露其个人医疗资料的条件。)由此可知,患者可以规定其信息的使用条件即如何使用他们的信息,选项表述符合原文,排除;C选项“对自己的医疗记录享有更多权利”,可定位到第2段第3、4句Thenwouldbeabletoexaminetheirrecordsandmakecorrections.Theycouldlearnwhoelsehadseentheinformation.(然后就可以检查他们的记录并做出更正。他们就能知道还有谁看过这些信息。)由此可知,患者有了检查并更正自己记录的权利,还能知道谁看过这些信息,选项表述符合原文,排除;D选项“起诉他们的保险公司滥用他们的医疗记录”,可定位到原文第2段第5句Improperuseofrecordsbyacaregiverorinsurercouldresultinbothcivilacriminalpenalties.(护理人员或保险公司对记录的不当使用可能导致民事或刑事处罚。)由此可知,患者有权起诉他们的保险公司滥用他们的医疗记录,选项表述与原文一致,排除。A选项“对他们的医生开诚布公”,可定位到最后一段第1句Oneaimoftherulesistoreassurepatientsaboutconfidentiality,therebyencouragingthemtobeopenwiththeirdoctors.(新规定的目的是为了让病人对自己的隐私放心,从而鼓励他们对医生开诚布公。)由此可知,鼓励患者对医生开诚布公是目的,而不是克林顿的题议,选项表述符合题意。因此,本题最佳选项为A。

53.事实细节题。题干“医生倾向于认为(克林顿的)规定____”,可定位到第3段第2、3句Thedoctorssaidtherulescouldactuallyerodeprivacy,…That,physicianssaid,wasaloopholethroughwhichHMOsandotherinsurerscouldpryintothedoctor-patientrelationship,…(医生们认为,这些规定实际上可能会侵犯隐私,……医生们认为,这是一个漏洞,医疗保健机构(HMO)和其他保险公司窥探医患关系……)由此可知,医生认为规定的弊端更明显,B选项“弊大于利”表述符合原文。A选项“可能会破坏医患关系”表述错误,不是会破坏医患关系,而是保险公司可能会窥探医患关系,排除;C选项“会阻止医生进行医学研究”、D选项“最终会导致更多的医疗费用和更差的医疗服务”原文并未提及,排除。因此,本题最佳选项为B。

54.目的意图题。题干“关于普林斯顿调查委员会1月份民调的例子是用来表明____”,可定位到最后一段。最后一段,第1句内容:这些规定的目的之一是让病人对自己的隐私放心,从而鼓励他们对医生开诚布公;第2句内容:各种癌症和性传播疾病都可能得不到治疗,因为患者害怕尴尬或失去保险。最后一句即这个例子:Thefearisreal:ClintonaidesnotedthataJanuarypoll…,suchapayingcashforservices.(这种担忧是真实存在的:克林顿的助手指出,普林斯顿调查研究协会今年1月进行的一项调查发现,六分之一的美国成年人曾做过一些不同寻常的事情来隐瞒医疗信息,比如用现金购买医疗服务。)由此可知,患者因为害怕尴尬或失去保险,而隐瞒病情,导致有些特殊疾病得不到治疗(这是一个问题),而民调的这个例子说明,美国人中这种害怕真实存在,即有很多美国人这么做,C选项“在美国,病人对医疗信息的隐瞒已经成为一个大问题”,表述符合原文。A选项“很多病人宁愿不治疗他们的疾病”,表述错误,患者们不是宁愿不治疗,而是害怕尴尬或失去保险,排除;干扰选项B“隐瞒医疗信息在美国很普遍”,表述不完整,不仅仅是隐瞒医疗信息很普遍,更重要的是隐瞒这些信息导致各种癌症和性传播疾病可能得不到治疗,排除;D选项“在美国病人中,用现金支付医疗服务是一种常见的做法”,这只是民调中的一个例子,不是作者写这个民调的目的,排除。因此,本题最佳选项为C。

55.判断推理题。A选项“美国政府将加强对患者个人信息使用的控制”,可定位到第2段第1句LastweekPresidentBillClintonproposedacorollarytothepatients’billofrightsnowbeforeCongress:arighttomedicalprivacy.(上周,克林顿总统向国会提出了《病人权利法案》的一个必然结果:医疗隐私权。)由此可知,美国政府计划通过新的法案加强对医疗隐私权的规定,根据法案内容可知,规定都是关于医疗信息使用的。选项表述符合原文。B选项“新规定使保险公司处于非常不利的地位”,可定位到原文第3段第4句theinsurersprotestedthattheruleswouldmakethemvulnerabletolawsuits.(保险公司抗议说,这些规定将使他们容易受到诉讼。)第5句Theywereespeciallydisturbedbyaprovisionholdingthemliableforprivacybreachesby“businesspartners’’suchaslawyersandaccountants.(他们尤其感到不安的是,有一项条款要求他们对律师和会计师等“商业伙伴”的隐私侵犯负责。)由此可知,新规定对保险公司的行为增加了限制,但这是为了规范他们的行为,保护隐私权,不能证明保险公司处于不利地位,除非这家保险公司想做一些违反规定的事情。选项表述不符合原文,排除;C选项“医生和保险公司都因为同样的原因而违反规定”,可定位到原文第3段。根据这段内容可知,医生和保险公司因为一些不同的原因都对规定不满,并且都认为该规定会增加医疗保健成本,都抱怨增加政府的审查。由此可知,没有依据表明他们因为相同的原因而违反规定,选项表述不符合原文,排除;D选项“患者有权完全控制自己的医疗信息”,可定位到第2段最后一句Theplaywas,saidClinton,“anunprecedentedsteptowardputtingAmericansbackincontroloftheirownmedicalrecords.”(克林顿说,这是“让美国人重新掌握自己的医疗记录的前所未有的一步”。)由此可知,这只是美国人重新掌握自己的医疗记录的一大步,还不能完全控制,选项表述错误,排除。因此,本题最佳选项为A。

【答案】华威制造集团(WarwickManufacturingGroup,WMG)创始人兼负责人库马尔•巴特(KumarBhatt)教授与马可尼公司(Marconi)人事主管罗布•米金(RobMeakin)建立了合作关系,培养工程师和管理人员掌握电子技术。新知识伙伴关系将包括一个由40名马可尼经理组成的团队,巴特教授称之为电子工程管理或E2。许多工程和非工程公司都对这些令人兴奋的项目表示了兴趣。

巴特教授认为,电子商务在很大程度上改变了商业环境。许多首席执行官不了解新技术的力量,在某些情况下,他们实际上是在抵制变革。他说:“只要有足够多的行业领袖认识到电子商务的潜在好处,电子商务将使英国有可能发生第二次生产力革命。”这可能会使日本经济接近于消除与主要竞争对手之间仍然巨大的竞争力差距。在过去的五年中,由于信息技术的发展,美国制造业的生产率提高了30%。在英国,我们可以实现更多,成功的电子商务将对英国经济产生数十亿美元的价值。”英国已经比其他欧洲国家更多地使用计算机辅助设计和制造(CAD/CAM)和管理信息技术系统,而且英国政府积极推动电子商务。但据巴特教授观察,英国从未将科技作为增长动力。“关于电子工程管理,你可以保留你的遗留系统;你只需要用一个信息引擎把这些系统连接起来。只要按下一个按钮,项目经理就可以看到项目的状态,精确地识别问题,并根据比过去更完整的信息做出几乎立即的决定。”E2项目是华威制造集团(WarwickManufacturingGroup)与美国领先的电子商务研究中心卡内基梅隆大学(CarnegieMellon)结盟的结果。后者将负责培训马可尼在美国的许多经理,该集团在美国有一半的业务。在英国,巴特教授与太阳微系统公司、甲骨文公司和参数技术公司合作,在大学建立了一个价值数百万英镑的E2设计和制造中心,用于培训和研究。

巴特教授认为,电子商务正在改变商业,以至于WMG很可能更名为华威电子制造集团。但他警告称:“电子商务带来的全球化步伐正在加快。虽然网络允许英国工业取代它们的欧洲同行,它还提供了亚洲国家超越。这是第一次不是西方世界的特权,因为这项技术是普遍的。

【答案】政府急切地想把韩国处境最艰难的公司卖给外国人。官员们相信,这是加快自1997年金融危机开始的企业重组的最佳途径,也是为可持续的经济增长开辟道路的最佳途径。在与外国收购者进行了数月断断续续的谈判后,本周,政府的计划向前迈出了一大步,然后又后退了一大步。
