One day last summer, watching the boys and girls trying to catch butterflies I remembered something happened when I was young．When I was a boy of 12 in South Carolina, something happened to me that cured me forever of wanting to put any wild creature in a cage. We lived on the edge of a wood, and every evening at dusk the mockingbirds would come and rest in the trees and sing. No musician can sing more beautiful than the birds. I decided that I would catch a young bird and keep it in a cage and in that way would have my own private musician. I finally succeeded in catching one and put it in a cage. At first, the bird flied about the cage, but eventually it settled down in its new home. I felt very pleased with myself and looked forward to some beautiful singing from my tiny musician. I had left the cage out, and on the second day my new pet’s mother flew to the cage with food in her mouth. The baby bird ate everything she brought to it. I was pleased to see this. Certainly the mother knew better than I how to feed her baby. The following morning when I went to see how my bird was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened! I had taken good care of my little bird. Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologist, happened to be visiting my father at the time, hearing me crying over the death of my bird, explained what had occurred. “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poison berries. She thinks it better for her young to die than to live in cage.” Never since then have I caught any living creature and put it in a cage. All living creatures have a right to live free. 【1】Why did the writer catch a mockingbird when he was a boy of 12? A.He had just got a new cage. B.He liked its beautiful feather. C.He wanted a pet for a companion. D.He wanted it to sing for him. 【2】The mockingbird died because it ______. A.drank the poisonous water by mistake B.was frightened to death C.refused to eat anything D.ate the poisonous food its mother gave it 【3】An ornithologist probably means ______. A.a religious person B.a kind person C.an expert in birds D.a schoolmaster 【4】What is the most important lesson the writer learned from the incident? A.Freedom is very valuable to all living things. B.All birds put in a cage won’t live long. C.You should keep the birds from their mother. D.Be careful about food you give to baby birds. |

Forget spending the whole night studying for the exam. There’s another way to cram (突击式学习) for tests. New research by scientists at Northwestern University in Chicago shows people can actually learn while they’re asleep. In the new study, published in the journal Nature Neuroscience, participants were given diagrams that showed them how to play two simple piano melodies, each 12 notes long. They spent an equal amount of time practicing playing each tune, and then took a 90-minute nap (小睡). While they slept, one of the melodies was quietly played on repeat for four minutes. As a result, upon awakening, the participants could accurately play the melody 4 percent more often than the melody that was not played while they slept, considering it resulted from just four minutes of “sleep-learning.” “The re-activation (重新激活) process in the experiment is thought to affect a naturally occurring memory consolidation (巩固) process that normally happens over months (possibly years),” said Paul Reber, a psychologist at Northwestern and co-author of the study. So, besides piano songs, what kinds of information can you “cram” while asleep? Clearly, resting your textbook near your dreaming head won’t do any good. “As long as the memory is tied to a specific type of sound, it looks like the sound can re-activate and strengthen the previously learned information,” Reber said. “It is possible that this effect would help with strengthening memories from a lecture and that it could even help speed up second-language learning.” In other words, if you’re learning a foreign language, it may help to put on recordings of the language while you sleep. If you need to memorize information presented in a classroom lecture, it might also help to record the lecture and play it quietly at night. 【1】The first paragraph serves as a(n) _____. A.introduction B.background C.comment D.conclusion 【2】In the new study, _____. A.the participants had learned to write the piano melodies B.the participants played each melody for about 90 minutes C.the two melodies were basically of the same level of difficulty D.the two melodies were played in turn while the participants slept 【3】What’s the author’s aim in giving the example of the study? A.To tell us the importance of sleep. B.To prove sleep-learning is possible. C.To recommend a way for us to learn music. D.To show that music can improve our memory. 【4】What did Paul Reber advise us to do when sleeping? A.Study music carefully. B.Record the sound of sleeping. C.Put a book beside our head. D.Play recordings quietly. |

The art of psychologically controlling people so that they give away secret or sensitive information is known as social engineering. These are non-technical attacks, which rely on fooling people into ignoring regular safety procedures. People involved in this criminal act either target individuals for things such as bank information and passwords, or they might target the employees of entire organizations for sensitive company information, which they can then use to make a lot of quick money on the market. The use of social engineering has increased greatly, because it’s much more difficult to hack (非法侵入) into someone’s software / password than it is to win their trust and make use of them to gain information that’s wanted. No matter how technically good the safety chain might be, information is always easy to attack if people with the information are easy to influence. Methods of social engineering are various. For instance, the criminal uses some form of physical media like a CD, which is given a legal but interesting label. It’s then purposely left in a place like a restroom or elevator, where it’s sure to be found by someone. When any person finds the CD, he / she is expected to get curious about the label and the data it contains. However, on inserting the CD into a computer, they unknowingly install malware (恶意软件) into the system, which could give the attacker unlimited access, not only to that computer, but also to the company’s internal network. Social engineering attacks are difficult to prevent completely. However, to make it difficult for social engineers and discourage them from attacking, some preventive measures need to be taken. For example, using advanced systems of security and different passwords for different accounts is very important. Regularly checking personal data and account details and making necessary upgrades to security are very helpful. More importantly, make sure that employees are trained to politely question people they don’t know, about their presence in the office building, and make sure that regular sessions (会议) and talks about security issues are held, so the problem of social engineering is always fresh in the minds of the employees. 【1】According to the author, social engineering _____. A.is a good skill B.helps keep secrets C.discourages employees D.could probably break the law 【2】What can be inferred from the second paragraph? A.More people are faced with social engineering. B.Social engineering is popular in few countries. C.It’s very easy to hack into someone’s software. D.Social engineering has attracted wide attention. 【3】To introduce how social engineering is used in Paragraph 3, the author _____. A.makes a to-do list B.gives an example C.offers an argument D.makes a comparison 【4】What is the last paragraph mainly about? A.The causes of social engineering. B.The effects of social engineering. C.The ways to prevent social engineering. D.Different types of social engineering. |

Learning to Give Praise to Others Words of praise, when used right, can have powerful positive effects on others. They are free, but they’re worth so much to the receiving person. 【1】 Your members didn’t follow you because of salaries but for more altruistic (利他的) reasons. Therefore, it is important that you give them the praise that is due for their efforts. 【2】 Don’t say, “You look good today.” when you could have said, “You look amazing today!” Don’t say, “Thanks for your effort.” Instead say, “I’m so thankful for your being on this project, we couldn’t have finished it without you!” Of course, with what I have mentioned above, be sure it’s coming from your heart. 【3】 Don’t praise if you don’t have a hint of appreciation for the person. Trust me, it will show in your eyes and the other party will feel upset. Insincere praise is flattery (恭维); you attempt to gain something from saying good things about the other person. Besides, praising in public is rather important. 【4】 When you praise a partner in public, you lift him up and his conduct for everyone in the room to see. Look for opportunities where you can publicly celebrate the hard work of certain people and make them feel they are great. I believe that as you begin using these communication tips and praising people around you, you’ll see a change in the atmosphere of your work environment. 【5】 Eventually, you’ll find yourself with a more effective team! A.So you need to be sincere in praise. B.This is more so in voluntary organizations. C.People will become happier and smile more. D.Words aren’t always necessary in praising others. E.It is much more effective than praising in private. F.Remember that measured praise is not praise at all. G.The best way to give praise is by being an example. |
