Most places in the world, however, have them regularly (有规律的). Countries that have a lot of earthquakes
are usually quite mountainous (多山的).
The most talked about earthquake in the United States was in San Francisco in 1906. Over 700 people
died in it. The strongest one in North America was in 1964. It happened in Alaska.
Strong earthquakes are not always the ones that kill the most people. In 1755, one of the strongest
earthquakes ever recorded was felt in Portugal. Around 2,000 people died.
In 1923, a very strong earthquake hit the Tokyo, Yokohama area of Japan. A hundred and forty thousand
people died. Most of them died in fires which followed the earthquake.
One of the worst earthquakes ever was in China in 1976. It killed a large number of people. The worst
earthquake ever reported was also in China, in which 400,000 people were killed or injured. This earthquake
happened in 1556.
Earthquakes worry people a lot. The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming. People
can not prepare for it.

C. regularly in most places in the world

newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet.
If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kid"s huge memory. It can recite
many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season.
He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US.
However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get stranger answers. A question about Smarter
Child"s age returns. "One year, 11 days, 16 hours, 7 minutes, and 47 seconds!" Asking where he lives gets,
"In a clean room in a high-tech building in California．"
Smarter Child uses the vast information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer
questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the
weather, he visits www.intellicast.com.
Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Internet, an artificial being with the
combined knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However
if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-computer David in the movie A.I.,
Artificial Intelligence, he must overcome two problems.
The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files are labeled in different
ways. That"s why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a
much more difficult task to let him find it himself.
Another problem is that while Smarter Child can process (处理) information more exactly and faster
than any human, he lacks common sense-a basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious to any young
child.
B. where we people can find Smarter Child
C. where weather forecasts are made
D. which is about artificial intelligence
B. tell us how the American government is run
C. provide us with a famous poem by Shakespeare
D. learn how to tell right behaviors from wrong ones.
B. A.I. Artificial Intelligence is probably the name of a film about a boy-computer.
C. Smart Child can recognize different files and find information needed on his own.
D. We have similar product now which has the knowledge of Einstein, Nixon and Spears.
B. Smarter Child
C. The Future of Internet
D. Intelligence Development
Typing your password or credit card number into a computer is a moment"s work. But if you think your
personal details disappear as soon as you hit the Return key, think again: they can sit on the computer"s hard
disk for years waiting for a hacker (黑客) to take them.
As people spend more time on the web and hackers become more experienced, the dangers of storing
personal information on computers are growing by the day, security experts say. There are some safe-guards,
such as never allowing your computer to store your passwords. But even that in no guarantee of security.
When you type in a password, it is stored in random access memory (RAM), where it is held temporarily
until other data overwrites it or the computer is switched off.
But every so often, the computer copies the contents of its RAM onto hard disk, where it is easy to prey
(捕获) for a hacker, who can read it directly or design a worm to e-mail it back. The longer sensitive data
stays in RAM, the more likely it is to be copied onto the disk, where it stays until it is overwritten-which might
not happen for years.
Tal Garfinkel and colleagues from Stanford University have created a software tool which simulates (模拟)
the workings of a complete computer system. Within the simulation, sensitive data can be tagged and then
tracked as it passes through the system. Next, Garfinkel and his team simulated computers running common
software that regularly handles passwords or secret personal information, such as Internet Explorer, the
Windows login script and Apache server software.
In a paper to be presented, they conclude that the programs took no measures to limit the length of time
the information is kept. Some of the tested software even copied the sensitive information, obviously without
restraint (阻拦).
B. Passwords help keep your personal information.
C. It"s unsafe to store personal information on computers.
D. There are some safeguards for your personal information.
B. the hard disk
C. a worm
D. the e-mail
B. protect personal information from being stolen
C. see how a complete computer system works
D. tag and track sensitive data on the computer
B. Hackers should be heavily punished.
C. Better computer programs are needed.
D. Program developers are to blame.

same time about 1,300 American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and learn the rest
of the world.
Here is a 2-way student exchange in action. Fred, 19, spent last year in Germany with George"s family.
In turn, George"s son Mike spent a year in Fred"s home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived. But after 2 months of studying, the
language became easy for him. School was completely different from what he had expected and it was much
harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took 14 subjects instead of 6 that
were usually taken in the US.
Family life, too, was different. The father"s word was the law. All the activities were done with the family
rather than individually. Fred found the food to be too simple at first. He also missed having a car.
"Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out to have a good time. In Germany, you walk but
you soon learn to like it."
At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his own ideas. "I suppose
I should criticize American schools." he says, "It is far too easy for our level but I have to say that I like it a
lot in Germany, we do nothing buy study. Here we take part in many other activities. I think that maybe
American schools are better in training their citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two."

and liberal arts (文科) classes in high school, a practice that allows them to stay competitive (有竞争力的) in
college entrance exam by choosing preferred subjects. The debate came after the Ministry of Education began
to ask for opinions from the public on Friday on whether it was necessary and possible to stop the dividing
system, which has been accepted for decades.
In a survey started by www. qq. com, more than 260 000 people cast their votes, with 54 percent of
those voted for the abolishment (废除) and 40 percent against.
A netizen from Chengdu said:"Sciences can activate the mind, while arts could strengthen their learning
ability."
But some people disagreed with him. A netizen nicknamed "gentle scholar" said the students would have
more burden if they have more subjects to study. "You don"t even know how difficult the courses are. I
suggest a survey among students."
"Abolish the current system of division? We have to study nine subjects? Finally we will study everything
and have learnt little," wrote another netizen.
Li Yanling, an education expert in Beijing, called on education authorities to consider students" school
burden. Chinese students are required to choose either arts or sciences subjects after ten years" education,
which include six years in primary school, three years in junior high school and one year in senior high
school.
Besides the Chinese language, mathematics and English, which are must for everyone, science students
are required to take physics, biology and chemistry, while arts students study politics, history and geography.
B. find a good job after graduation
C. have more advantages to enter a university
D. show interest in daily life
B. is against the abolishment
C. doesn"t care the abolishment
D. prefers students to learn more
B. More people on the Internet are for the abolishment
C. The students who are against the abolishment think abolishing the current system of division will heavy
their burden.
D. Science students are required to take physics, biology and chemistry besides Chinese, math and English.
