In its latest move to fight online piracy (盗版), the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) has shut down hundreds of BT file-sharing websites, including the popular BTChina.net.
The name BT is short for Bit Torrent, one of the most common download methods used in China.As a result of sharing, the more people download the same thing, the faster the downloads get.Users can share software, music, movies, and digital books, TV dramas and pirated DVDs and CDs.
These BT sites were shut down either for operating without a license, or for breaking copyright law.The shutdown might have an immediate effect on the amount of downloads, but over time it will recover quickly, according to Aaron D.Hurvitz, a member of China’s intellectual property (知识产权) law firms.Netizens (网民) are beginning to search for new download sites.“The problem is, if you shut down the top two Bit-torrent sites, then people will simply go to number three, number four or number five on the list,” Hurvitz said.
Whether netizens like it or not, SARFT said the closed sites will have to solve the “copyright problem” if they want to reopen.Copyright should be protected.If you don’t pay for movies, investors lose money.Then no one will make movies in the future, experts say.
In the future, some experts say, the concept of “downloading” will disappear.You may not have to bother downloading content to your computer, but just enjoy it online.However, the concept of “copyright” will still be there, inspiring talented people to create new things, in which they take pride, and from which they make money.
60.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.Some sharing websites were shut down for lack of licenses.
B.Those closed websites will never be reopened.
C.The speed must slow down if many people download the same thing.
D.People won’t be able to enjoy content online in the future.
61.Through BT users CAN share ________.
A.movies and hardware B.e-books and TV dramas
C.computer parts and music D.copyright and pirated CDs
62.The author quoted Hurvitz’s words in Paragraph 3 to tell us ________.
A.there are several choices to download resources
B.how to find other ways to download resources
C.the shutdown can’t solve the copyright problem completely
D.there will be more problems for users’ downloading

举一反三
The job market continues to suffer the effects of last year’s financial crash. On the one hand more women have entered the labor market over the years, and on the other hand the economic recession (衰退) has hit men harder than women. In October the unemployment rate for men was almost 11% compared to 8% for women.
Industries that traditionally use lots of men have suffered deep cuts. For example, manufacturing (制造业) and building lost more jobs last month. But health care and temporary employment services have had job growth. Both of those industries employ high percentages of women.
Thirty years ago, women earned sixty-two cents for every dollar that men earned. Now, for those who usually work full time, women earn about eighty percent of what men earn. And a recent study from the University of California, Davis, reveals that women hold fifty-one percent of well-paid management and professional jobs. Yet the study also shows that men still hold about nine out of every ten top positions at most companies. The results have remained largely unchanged for five years.
Also, a new research paper in the journal Sex Roles looks at the experiences of women who are the main earners in their families. Rebecca Meisenbach at the University of Missouri in Columbia interviewed fifteen women. She found that they all value their independence and many enjoy having the power of control, though not all want it. But they even feel more pressure and worry. That is partly because of cultural expectations that working women should still take care of the children. Also, men who are not the main earners may feel threatened.
小题1:Which of the following is a reason why women have a larger share of jobs?
A.Women workers are paid less than men. |
B.More women now have higher education than men. |
C.The economic recession has affected men more than women. |
D.Industries that traditionally use lots of men now need more women. |
A.manufacturing | B.building | C.health care | D.farming |
A.$260 | B.$310 | C.$400 | D.$500 |
A.hopes to be less independent | B.has the power of control |
C.feels a bit threatened | D.is less worried |
The scientists’ study, requested by the European Commission, attacked the concept of “leisure noise,” saying children and teenagers should be protected from increasingly high sound levels---with loud mobile phones also coming in for criticism(批评).
“There has been increasing concern about exposure from the new generation of personal music players which can reproduce sounds at very high volumes without loss of quality,” the Commission, the EU’s executive arm, said in a statement.
“Risk for hearing damage depends on sound level and exposure time,” it said. More and more young people were exposed to the great threat(威胁)that leisure noise posed to hearing, it said.
Commission experts said that between 50 and 100 million people listen to portable music players on a daily basis.
If they listened for only five hours a week at more than 89 decibels(分贝), they would already be beyond EU limits for noise allowed in the workplace, they said. But if they listened for longer periods, they risked permanent hearing loss after five years.
The scientists calculated the number of people in that risk category at between five and 10 percent of listeners, meaning up to 10 million people in the European Union.
Sales of personal music players have soared in EU countries in recent years, particularly of MP3 players.
"I am worried that so many young people ... who are frequent users of personal music players and mobile phones at high acoustic levels, may be unknowingly damaging their hearing ," she said in the statement.
小题1:Which of the following can be the best title of the article?
A.Youngsters across Europe: suffer permanent hearing loss. |
B.MP3 players: sell best but do harm to youngsters |
C.The scientists’ study: requested by the EU |
D.EU warns youth: turn your MP3 players down! |
A.textbook | B.medical report |
C.teen magazine | D.governmental newspaper |
A.were uncovered | B.felt | C.realized | D.were faced with |
A.besides the high sound levels, scientists also criticized loud mobile phones. |
B.if one listened for 5 hours more a week at 100 decibels, he would risk permanent hearing loss. |
C.it is only the level of the sound that can do damage to hearing. |
D.the scientists said there were 5-10 percent of MP3 listeners risking hearing loss around the world. |
Blogs (博客) are the place where young people go to reveal their souls, to vent(发泄), and even to gossip.
Many people enjoy the freedom in blogging. Some, however, find that putting one’s life online can have a price. Some students in America got suspensions (暂停) because on their blogs they posted threatening words to their teachers.
Recent surveys found that nearly a fifth of teens who have access to the Web have their own blogs. And 38% of teens say they read other people’s blogs. By comparison, about a tenth of adults have their own blogs and a quarter say they read other people’s online journals.
With the development of the Internet, more and more people will be engaged in blogging.
In another survey, 79% of teens agreed that people at their age aren’t careful enough when giving out information about themselves online. Besides, careless blogging can also affect blog viewers. When you are angry or frustrated, your blog is the first place you turn to. The words you post then may not be rational which you may regret later. To minimize (减少) the negative effect, change the permission setting and make such posts “private” so that only you can read them.
As long as you are careful with what you post, blogging is a great means of staying in touch with friends and displaying one’s creative works.
68. Blogs are the place where people _________.
A. go online to have a chat B. go online to enjoy freedom
C. go online to express themselves freely D. exchange their views online
69. The fact that some American students got suspensions is used to show that ________.
A. people should be careful with what they write
B. people should not put their life online
C. American students are limited in blogging
D. anyone who has access to the Web has his blog

71. The passage is mainly about _________.
A. the number of people who have blogs B. the use people make of blogs
C. advantages and disadvantages of blogs D. the author’s suggestions about blogging
