    Watch out, Yahoo. There is a search engine out there with super speed and accuracy. It’s very cool.

    Google is the Web’s largest search engine. In just two years it has gained a reputation for surprising speed and accuracy, delivering what you are looking for in a second. The site now does this 40 million times a day --- a number achieved without spending a penny on a TV or newspaper ad.

    Google doesn’t need them. In the past six months alone, the site has won a Webby (the online version of the Oscar) for technical excellence, set a new record for search engines by indexing a billion Web pages.

    Yahoo still has ten times the audience, but Google consistently ranks first in customer satisfaction: 97% of users find what they are looking for most or all of the time. “You see people smile when they use it, like they’ve found something no one else knows about,” says Danny Sullivan, editor of an online newsletter.

    No one is smiling more than Larry Page, 27, and Sergey Brin, 26, who seem certain to become billionaires when the company goes public, probably sometime in 2004. they make a great comedy duo(成对的表演者)。When they first met as Ph. D. students, the pair say, they found each other horrible – “I still find him horrible,” adds Brin – but driven together by a computer-science project aimed at coming up with better ways of searching the Web.

    The idea behind the Google is that traditional search engines are stupid. They think relevance (关联) is based on repetition; if you type in a request for Tiger Woods, say, you’ll get websites listed according to how many times those words appear. Not only is this no guarantee of quality, but it’s also open to abuse. If you own a Tiger fan site and want to lead more people to it, simply type his name thousands of times in the site’s source code(编码).

    1What does the underlined word “them” in the third paragraph refer to?

    A. 40 million times              B. Speed and accuracy. 

    C. TV and newspaper ads.        D. Web pages

    2. Which of the following win greater customer satisfaction?

    A. Yahoo        B. Tiger Woods      C. Larry Page     D. Google

    3. It can be inferred that Page and Brin ______________.

    A. hold very important positions in Google

    B. are two ordinary computer programmers of Google.

    C. used to hate each other very much

    D. hold quite different opinions of computer-science

    4. We can learn from the last paragraph that ___________.

    A. Google is open to abuse

    B. Google remains a traditional search engine

    C. Google thinks relevance is based on repetition

    D Google is better than traditional search engines

    C
    　　What comes as a shock to many Westerners may be the unfriendly way that some Chinese treat waiters and waitresses in restaurants and bars. Over the last few years,as many in Beijing have made fortunes,I and many of my foreign friends have noticed a downturn in the treatment of those who work all hours and often live in terrible conditions to bring us our food,guard our homes and sell us clothes.It's not the common citizens,but the young nouveau riches(暴发户) Chinese in Beijing who are mostly guilty of this both social and human misbehavior.
    　　It is not unusual to see and hear these people,especially the young women among their ranks,speaking rudely to the waiters and waitresses,as they sit there in the misguided belief that the latest mobile phone,a new car and designer clothes give them the right to talk to people like dirt.In one recent incident(事件) in an expensive restaurant near where I live ,I overheard the table next to me,two guys and a girl,tell the waitress "You really are stupid ",because she had brought them two glasses instead of three.They all burst into loud laughter as the young girl ran away to fetch another.In anther incident I saw a waitress reduced to tears as four well-dressed girls criticized everything from her accent to her looks.
    　　Lately I have noticed that this rather unpleasant aspect of the nouveau riches has been taken up by many of their foreign peers(同类人).So I ask Beijing's bright young things to set a good example,and treat all people with equal respect.And I urge foreigners to follow the good examples of their Chinese language teachers and textbooks while adding some of the pleasantries of their own cultures,so that cultural interpenetration(相互渗透) has a positive influence and not a negative one.
    　　Here I'd like to leave you with the words from Confucius:"What you do not wish for yourself, do not "do to others."
    　　64.The writer has noticed that less respect is shown to _______ in Beijing in recent years.
    　　　A.common citizens          B.waiters and the like
    　　　C.young nouveau riches      D.some foreigners
    　　65.The two incidents mentioned in Paragraph 2 are used to show ______.
    　　　A.waiters and waitresses can make excusable mistakes
    　　　B.waitresses are usually too shy to be laughed at
    　　　C.some Beijingers are too particular about restaurant service
    　　　D.what's being talked about is not rare
    　　66.The young Beijingers are asked to set a good example in order to ______
    　　　A.have good influence over foreigners
    　　　B.leave a good impression on foreigners
    　　　C.educate younger Chinese
    　　　D.develop traditional Chinese culture
    　　67.The origial title of the article is most likely to be _______.
    　　　A.One Dark Side of the Bright Chinese Capital
    　　　B.Beijing's Young Nouveau Riches,Watch Out
    　　　C.Dno't Throw Away Good Manners,Please
    　　　D.People Like Waiters Live at Bottom of Society

    If you haven’t heard or seen anything about Road Rage in the last few months, you’ve probably been avoiding the media. There have been countless stories about this new and scary phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. You have most likely encountered aggressive driving or Road Rage recently if you drive at all.
    While drunk driving remains a critical problem, the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. For instance, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Association, 41,907 people died on the highway last year. Of those deaths, the agency estimates that about two-thirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behavior.
    Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now, and why is it something that seemed almost nonexistent a few short years ago? Experts have several theories, and all are probably partially correct. One suggestion is sheer overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. However, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more cars in the same amount of space; and the problem is magnified（增强） in urban areas. Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day, stress levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers. These factors, when combined in certain situations, can spell Road Rage.
    You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud at a slower driver, sounded the horn long and hard at another car, or sped up to keep another driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!
    Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do to avoid any major conflict. If you are easily influenced by Road Rage, the key is to discharge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another driver’s rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.
    【小题1】The first sentence in Para. 1 implies that ______.

    A．onemaybeangeredbymediareportsandwantstoavoidthem
    B．themediainventedtheterm“RoadRage”onlyafewmonthsagoC．RoadRagehasreceivedmuchmediacoverageinthelastfewmonthsD．peoplenotinterestedinthemediaknowlittleaboutrecenthappenings
    【小题2】The underlined word “spell” in Para. 3 means ________.
    A．relieveB．causeC．spreadD．prevent
    【小题3】Which of the following characterizes aggressive driving?
    A．Talking while driving.B．Driving at high speed.
    C．Sounding the horn when passing.D．Shouting at another driver.
    【小题4】The last paragraph is intended to _________.
    A．tellpeoplehowtodealwithRoadRage
    B．informpeoplehowaggressivedriverscouldbe
    C．showpeoplehowtocontrolthemselveswhenangry
    D．warnpeopleagainsteyecontactwithanotherdriver
