PASSAGE ONE WRN8#b  
    Whether the eyes are “the windows of the soul” is debatable; that they are intensely important in interpersonal communication is a fact. During the first two months of a baby’s life, the stimulus that produces a smile is a pair of eyes. The eyes need not be real: a mask with two dots will produce a smile. Significantly, a real human face with eyes covered will not motivate a smile, nor will the sight of only one eye when the face is presented in profile. This attraction to eyes as opposed to the nose or mouth continues as the baby matures. In one study, when American four – year – olds were asked to draw people, 75 percent of them drew people with mouths, but 99 percent of them drew people with eyes. In Japan, however, where babies are carried on their mother’s back, infants do not acquire as much attachment to eyes as they do in other cultures, As a result, Japanese adults make little use of the face either to encode(把…编码)or decode (理解) meaning. In fact, Argyle reveals that the “proper place to focus one’s gaze during a conversation in Japan is on the neck of one’s conversation partner.” 8#NIs@DJ  
The role of eye contact in a conversational exchange between two Americans is well defined: speakers make contact with the eyes of their listener for about one second, then glance away as they talk; in a few moments they re – establish eye contact with the listener or reassure themselves that their audience is still attentive, then shift their gaze away once more. Listeners, meanwhile, keep their eyes on the face of the speaker, allowing themselves to glance away only briefly. It is important that they be looking at the speaker at the precise moment when the speaker reestablishes eye contact: if they are not looking, the speaker assumes that they are disinterested and either will pause until eye contact is resumed or will terminate the conversation. Just how critical this eye maneuvering is to the maintenance of conversational flow becomes evident when two speakers are wearing dark glasses: there may be a sort of traffic jam of words caused by interruption, false starts, and unpredictable pauses.

PASSAGE TWO 6bA~mC^&  
fed[^wW  
    More and more, the operations of our businesses, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap substantial rewards, Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment. ]6i_d  
    It’s easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers. ^)%wq@Hi  
    Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it’s disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may have been the victims of uncommonly bad luck. (Ay4B*|!  
For example, a certain keypunch(键盘打孔)operator complained of having to stay overtime to punch extra cards. Investigation revealed that the extra cards she was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off (向…透露)the company that was being robbed. 6f5sIg  
Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met. LNyL>VHkK  
Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled(耍弄)the most confidential records right under the noses of the company’s executives . accountants . and security staff . And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere . h!t2H6eyF  
1.It can be concluded from the passage that _______. + "N<-  
A)   it is still impossible to detect computer crimes today yo Q?lh  
B)   computer crimes are the most serious problem in the operation of financial institutions n_!]B_Vd$  
C)   computer criminals can escape punishment because they can’t be detected fDm}J  
D)   people commit computer crimes at the request of their company (-G(^Tn  
2.It is implied in the third paragraph that _______. oN1wrf}Sh  
A)   many more computer crimes go undetected than are discovered no\}aTx  
B)   the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problem WkU) I2oH  
C)   most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimes [jtj~]&mO  
D)    most computer criminals who are caught blame their bad luck Um0<I)  
3.Which of the following is mentioned in the passage ? Jj^<:t5{rN  
A)   A strict law against computer crimes must be enforced . gp|7{}Q{  
B)   Companies need to impose restrictions on confidential information Q+%m+ /Zq  
C)   Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputation >FMT#x t  
D)   Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes . \ /X!tlwxh  
4.What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught ? :xUl+(+  
A)   With bad reputation they can hardly find another job . { $QF*j  
B)   They will be denied access to confidential records 5+Zx-oWq_  
C)   They nay way walk away and easily find another job . 1o"oa<*_  
D)   They must leave the country or go to jail X m:gD6;9  
5.The passage is mainly about __________ C_khd"  
A)   why computer crimes are difficult to detect by systematic inspection ]@<3 6ByM  
B)   why computer criminals are often able to escape punishment K&a]pL6D

PASSAGE THREE yW=hnV{  
9oau _ Q#  
It is often claimed that nuclear energy is something we cannot do without . We live in a consumer society where there is an enormous demand for commercial products of all kinds . Moreover . an increase in industrial production is considered to be one solution to the problem of mass unemployment . Such an increases presumes an abundant and cheap energy supply . Many people believe thatnuclear energy provides an inexhaustible and economical source of power and that it is therefore essential for an industrially developing society . There are a number of other advantages in the use of nuclear energy . Firstly , unclear power , except for accidents . is clean A further advantage is that a nuclear power station can be run and maintained by relatively few technical and administrative staff . The nuclear reactor represents an enormous step in our scientific evolution and . whatever the anti-nuclear group says , it is wrong to expect a return to more primitive sources of fuel ,. However . opponents of nuclear energy point out that nuclear power stations bring a direct threat not only to the environment but also to civil liberties . Furthermore . it is questionable whether ultimately nuclear power is a cheap source of energy . There have . for example , been very costly accidents in America , in Britain and , of course . in Russia . The possibility of increases in the cost of uranium(铀)in addition to the cost of greater safety provisions could price nuclear power out of the market . In the long run , environmentalists argue , nuclear energy wastes valuable resources and disturbs the ecology to an extent whish could bring about the destruction of the human race . Thus if we wish to survive , we cannot afford nuclear energy .In spite of the case against nuclear energy outlined above , nuclear energy programmes are expanding . Such an expansion assumes a continual growth in industrial production and consumer demands . However , it is doubtful whether this growth will or can continue . Having weighed up the arguments on both sides . it seems there are good economic and ecological reasons for sources of energy other than nuclear power . u.K'"-xt4K

Reading Passage 3 <\5{R@A*6

Bush to thank Canberra for support X\;y;pmRH  
CANBERRA, Australia (CNN) -- U.S. President George W. Bush has arrived in Australia's capital on the last leg of his Asia trip to thank Prime Minister John Howard for his steadfast allegiance to the U.S. and support for the war on terror. .eE5pyw+C  
Bush will address a joint sitting of the national Parliament, visit the national war memorial and discuss trade and the terror war with Howard during his 21-hour stay. gnQd#`  
The Australian government hopes to use the visit to advance the progress of discussions which could lead to the striking of a free trade deal between the two nations. >2a~hW|,  
The Australian government has been a staunch supporter of the Bush administration's war on terror, contributing troops and military hardware to the actions in Afghanistan and Iraq and backing the U.S. position in international forums such as the United Nations. <*[(t;i  
Bush has described Howard as a "good friend" and a "man of steel" and the two leaders appear to have established a genuine rapport. D<MtLwH  
But Bush also created a diplomatic hiccup last week by referring to Australia as a "sheriff" in the Asian region, a description which does not sit well with some of Australia's neighbors who consider Canberra to be too closely aligned to Washington. bu]bfnYi9  
During his speech to the parliament, Bush is expected to thank Howard's conservative government for its support, and justify the use of military force in Iraq. d^7<l_u~ !  
Bush is the fourth U.S. president to visit Australia, following Bill Clinton, his father George Bush and Lyndon Johnson in making the trip Down Under. Rh=h{O  
Police are expecting around 5,000 demonstrators to attend rallies on Thursday with most voicing their anger over the Iraq war. They are also protesting the detention of Australian citizens at Guantanamo Bay military prison. ?^dyQhb  
But security will attempt to prevent protestors from getting within 500 meters of the president and have banned loudspeakers being directed at the official party. .FeEK(  
The Canberra visit is the final leg of a six-nation tour by President Bush which included attending the APEC leaders summit in Bangkok, Thailand. VD4(  
The trip also coincides with a four-day visit from Chinese President Hu Jintao to Australia, although the two leaders' paths will not cross. Hu will also address the Australian parliament. M- n +3E9  
Bush arrived in Australia from Indonesia where he spent three hours on the tourist island of Bali, the site of deadly terror bombings a year ago which killed more than 200 people, including around 90 Australians. gY%-0@g  
Bush has praised Indonesia for its support in the global war on terror and vowed to win the fight against terrorism. %EuSP0  
"Today we pay tribute to the victims, we remember the suffering of their families and we reaffirm our commitment to win the war on terror," Bush said at a press conference on Wednesday with Indonesian President Megawati Sukarnoputri. <*L8kNykK  
Before the Bali attacks last October, Indonesia -- the world's most populous Muslim nation -- was criticized for ignoring the terrorism problem and militant Islamic extremism within its borders. F J)la9  
The Indonesian terrorist attacks have been blamed on the al Qaeda terror network's arm in Southeast Asia, Jemaah Islamiyah, which has an estimated 3,000 members. s^cHR1^  
In the wake of the nightclub blasts, Jakarta doubled its efforts to crackdown on terrorism and apprehended dozens of JI suspects which earned the praise of international leaders. o.,hCg)X  
While both leaders characterized their talks as productive and positive, Megawati admitted that the two leaders did not agree on every issue. |q?A8@\u  
"Despite the fact that we do not always share common perspective ... we both continue to hold mutual understanding that it is to the interest of the two countries to maintain consultation and cooperation in the pursuit of global peace," Megawati told reporters. [|vd r.  
With anti-U.S. sentiment in Indonesia at an all-time high, Bush also pushed to ease a growing gulf in attitudes towards America among Indonesia's Muslim population. hT< v8  
He met with eminent Hindu, Islam and Christian leaders during the Bali stopover for frank talks described by Megawati as a "positive development". y&UsSS  
"Both sides were in agreement about the importance of religious tolerance as one of the major pillars of democracy in Indonesia," she said at the press conference. &a V`u?'e  
The U.S. president urged Indonesia not to allow terrorism to be born out of religion. bFcI\Q{4  
"Americans hold a deep respect for the Islamic faith," Bush said. "We know that Islam is fully compatible with liberty and tolerance and progress because we see the proof in your country." \Q]7Hw<  
"Terrorists who claim Islam as their inspiration defile one of the great faiths. Murder has no place in any religious tradition. It must find no home in Indonesia," he said. DUaj]V{_^

Trade, N. Korea top Hu's agenda LKhUqW  
SYDNEY, Australia (CNN) -- Chinese President Hu Jintao has arrived in Australia for a four-day visit with talks on trade and North Korea high on the agenda. 5~v({R.  
Hu was greeted Wednesday morning at Sydney airport by Australian Prime Minister John Howard, who thanked him for his key role in attempting to defuse the nuclear standoff with Pyongyang. Z<`QDBN"4  
"I thanked him for the very constructive role that China is playing, and we'll have an opportunity when he's in Australia later this week to have a further discussion," Howard said Wednesday after Hu's arrival. 5-*/wKjLz  
"China remains the key player," he said. Dc U$sf*  
Australia is keen to forge closer economic and political ties with China, which is already a major trading partner. :M3Fq@w=  
Hu will attend a lunch hosted by Australia's official head of state, Governor-General Michael Jeffery, Wednesday then meet with Australian business leaders in Sydney Thursday morning. b}WU  
Australia will be hoping to build on the success of last year's $17.5 billion deal to supply China with liquefied natural gas, and win contracts related to the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. qeypa !  
But the main prize is a free trade deal with Asia's emerging economic powerhouse. r3'0{Nn+  
Already two-way trade between the nations is worth around $15 billion a year, with Australia primarily exporting energy and raw commodities, such as iron ore, and importing low-cost manufactured goods. G@s rQum(  
Hu and Howard will sign a number of trade agreements on Friday in Canberra, with media tipping one of those will be a deal to begin a feasibility study into a bilateral free trade pact. W2'u]1bs  
The Australian newspaper Wednesday quoted Canberra sources as saying such a study would take up to two years but that there was "a genuine willingness" on China's part to bolster economic and trade links between the two nations. f-^JI*hj  
Australia is also hoping to strike a similar deal with the United States and to pull off both deals by the end of the decade would be considered a crowning achievement for the Howard government. p[>! ;qI  
Hu is scheduled to address a joint sitting of the Australian parliament on Friday, one day after U.S. President George W. Bush does the same. RGsgT^  
3v\}4)A[  
The two visits have prompted a security clampdown in the national capital, although the leaders' paths will not cross during their time in Australia. ]v=A}}kS  
Canberra protests are expected for Hu's visit from supporters of the Falun Gong movement, Free Tibet activists and critics of China's human rights record.
