B [2015.四川新津中学高三一诊]
A group of Russian criminals have stolen 1. 2 billion use-rname and password combinations for more than 500 million e-mail addresses. It's the largest known theft on the Inter?net, according to a report of The New York Times.
Cyber security firm Hold Security discovered the security breach. The firm found that the group of criminals collected personal information from 420, 000 websites, including household names and small Internet sites. The criminals were based in a small city in southern Central Russia. They hacked websites inside Russia as well as big companies in the US and other countries,T/ie New York Times reported.
The criminals found hundreds of thousands of weak web?sites and attacked their coding, Hold Security said. Alex Holden is the chief information security officer of Hold Secur?ity. "The hackers do not just target US companies; they tar?get any website they can get," Holden said. "And most of these sites are still easy to attack.,,
According to Hold Security, the criminals have been using the stolen information to send junk mail through e-mail and on social networks like Twitter. They can also use the 500 million stolen e-mail addresses to plan other crimes. They could use information from bank e-mails to steal your identity or sell the e-mail addresses to other criminals to make quick cash.
The reported break-ins are the latest events to raise doubts about security in big and small companies. Last win?ter, hackers stole 40 million credit card numbers and 70 mil?lion addresses, phone numbers and other personal informa?tion from the retailer Target Corporation. The brand is still working to regain its shoppers' trust.
John Prisco is the CEO of a security firm. He says secur?ity hackings are more common than many people and compa?nies realize. "This issue reminds me of an iceberg, 90% of which is actually under water," Prisco said in an e-mailed statement. So many cyber breaches today are not actually re?ported, because companies are losing information and they are not even aware of it.
Security experts believe hackers will continue breaking into computer networks unless companies become more pro?tective of personal information.

A [2015 •河南信阳高级中学高三第六次大考]
When Louisa Ball takes a nap, she sleeps for days on end, and no amount of shaking can fully wake her up. The British girl has a rare condition called Sleeping Beauty syn?drome. Doctors don't know what causes it or how to cure it― only know that it strikes teenagers and goes away by itself af?ter 8 to 12 years.
Louisa's mum, Lottie, told NBC Nexvs that the girl had flu-like symptoms just over a year ago. Shortly afterwards, she had her first period of long sleeping.
She was eventually diagnosed with Kleine-Levin syn?drome, whose victims worldwide may number no more than 1,000. The victims live normally for weeks or months at a time, with normal sleep patterns and normal energy levels. Then, with little warning, they'll go to sleep for days or weeks at a time. So far, Louisa's longest period in bed has been 13 days. Victims will wake briefly, but be disoriented and not fully awake. Louisa's parents force her awake so she can use the bathroom and eat.
Now, Louisa's friends can tell when a period is coming on. She stops talking and she may be annoyed easily. That's when she knows she has to get home to her bed. Louisa has slept through family vacations, the dance recitals she loves to perform in, and school tests. Now it becomes increasingly difficult to catch up on the missed schoolwork.
But just as doctors don't know the cause, they also don't know why it ends as mysteriously as it begins. The illness is unrelated to narcolepsy (嗜睡症),whose victims are con?stantly tired and drop off for brief periods of sleep at any?time.
It's so dramatic that some people have accused Louisa of making the false symptoms to get attention. Her father, Richard, thinks that's absurd.
1. The underlined word "disoriented " in the third paragraph
probably means "__________ ".
A. embarrassed B. disappointed
C. confused D, happy
2. We can learn from the passage that_____________ .
A. doctors have found the cure for Sleeping Beauty syn?drome
B.some people don't believe in the truth of \ Louisa's symptoms
C. Kleine-Levin syndrome has no effect on Louisa's study
and life
D. the narcolepsy victims sleep longer than those with Kleine-Levin syndrome
3. What can we learn about Louisa?
A. Louisa is fond of dancing.
B.Louisa can still manage finish her schoolwork without difficulty.
C.Louisa is a British girl who likes sleeping.
D.Louisa's longest sleeping period is 8 years.
4. Which is the best title of the passage?
A. What is narcolepsy
B. How Louisa overcame the difficulty
C. Rare illness turns a girl into a "Sleeping Beauty"
D. The latest research on Kleine-Levin syndrome

B [2015 .江西新余一中高三三模] People aren't walking any more―if they can figure out a
way to avoid it.
I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn't in any hurry, either.I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness:motorosis.
It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(免疫的),for I was bred in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as a good day's walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as a sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced―and beat―a teenage foot?ball player the 168 steps up the Statue of Liberty.
Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physi?cian* Sir Adolphe Abrahams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A person who avoids exer?cise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise―the most familiar and natural of all.
It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flow?ers, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car.
The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don't dare to approach nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.
I say that the green of forests is the mind's best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.
4. What was life like when the author was young?
A. People often walked 25 miles a day.
B. People usually went around on foot.
C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty.
D. People considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.
5. The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that___________ .
A. middle-aged people like getting back to nature
B. people need regular exercise to keep fit
C. walking in nature helps enrich one's mind
D. going on foot prevents heart disease
6. What is compared to "a steel river" in Paragraph 6?
A. A ray of traffic light. B. A queue of cars.
C. A flash of lightning. D. A stream of people.
7.What is the author's intention of writing this passage?
A. To encourage people to return to walking.
B. To recommend people to give up driving.
C. To advise people to do outdoor activities.
D. To tell people to reflect more on life.

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。
Smart phone stress: Are you a victim of "always on" cul?ture?
You're on holiday but secretly check your work e-mails the moment you wake up. You get anxious if there's no Wi-Fi in the hotel or mobile phone signal up the mountain. 5 And you secretly worry things will go wrong at work if you're not there. These are the typical signs of "always on" stress caused by smartphone addiction.
Work-life balance
Pittsburgh-based developer Kevin Holesh developed an app named Moment to monitor his usage of his phone. The app enables users to see how much time they're spending on the device and set up warnings if self-controlled usage limits are offended. 6 "Some time on your phone, some time off it, enjoying your loving family and friends around you."
"Always stressed"
7 You're not giving your body time to recover, so you're always stressed. And the more tired and stressed we get, the more mistakes we make. 8 The fact that we can stay connected to the workplace wherever we are in the world is feeding deep-rooted insecurities.
Slowdown in decision
We now consume media for more hours than we sleep. 9 It actually makes it more difficult to make decisions and many are becoming less productive because they're flooded by it all and feel they can never escape the office.
A.Moment's goal is to promote balance in your life.
B.You get excited if you receive a text message or an e-mail
from a friend.
C.This is leading to a sort of slowdown in decision and it is creating more stress in the workplace.
D.The negative impact of "always on" culture is that your mind is never resting.
E.Physical and mental health therefore can suffer.
F. Mobile phone companies argue that mobile connectivity is beneficial.
G. You are nervous if your phone is getting low on power.

The historic centre of Vienna has been added to UNESCO's World Cultural Heritage list. Thus, St. Stephen's Cathedral, the Imperial Palace and many oth?er historic buildings are now recognized as being among the 700 outstanding cultural and natural monuments of mankind―others include the Pyramid Fields from Giza to Dahshur, the historic centre of Rome, the Kremlin with the Red Square, the Chinese Wall, the Taj Mahal and the Grand Canyon.
Vienna's historic centre, in its unity, is considered one of the most beautiful city landmarks in Europe. Three eras left their mark on the former residence of the Habsburgs : the Middle Ages with Gothic St. Stephen's Cathedral whose spire points towards heaven, one of Vienna's landmarks; the Baroque whose most important achievement is the Imperial Palace with its sumptuous cupolas (奢华的圆顶);the Ring Boulevard era of the late nineteenth century, when such splendid buildings as the Vienna State Opera and the Museum of Fine Arts were built to replace the former city walls.
The imperial flair of the centre of Vienna is en?hanced (加强)by numerous churches, mansions and parks, as well as by rich art collections gathered by wealthy rulers. And the centuries-old musical tradition ranges from the Court Chapel of the Imperial Palace to Mozart's immortal (不朽的)music and the waltzes of Johann Strauss. Also inseperably linked to the centre of the city are the delights of Viennese cuisine, the gemiitlichkeit of Viennese coffeehouses and nostalgic shopping at former purveyors (伙食承办商)to the im?perial court.
5. Which of the following is not mentioned as cultural and natural monuments of mankind?
A.The Taj Mahal.
B.The Pyramid Fields.
C.The Kremlin with the Red Square.
D.The Court Chapel.
6.The second paragraph is developed mainly by .
A.following the order of place
B.providing examples
C.making comparisons
D.analyzing causes
7.What do the underlined words "imperial flair" in the last paragraph mean?
A. Culture atmosphere. B. Art style.
C. Royal style. D. Royal palace.
8.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The universal value of the world heritage in Vi?enna.
B.Vienna's becoming one of the cultural and natu?ral monuments of mankind.
C.The introduction of the historic centre of Vienna.
D.The special culture atmosphere of the historic centre of Vienna.
