FOR Chinese students the end of their senior year is filled with studying and stress as they prepare for the college entrance exams in June.But for American high school seniors the experience couldn’t be more different. The end of senior year is a celebration of their time in high school and involves parties,games and fun.
Senioritis is a commonly used expression.It means seniors have a disease which makes them unable to do work.This starts in April when seniors find out whether they have been accepted to university.

The“Senior Show”is usually a part of Senior Week,which is a week specifically dedicated(专用的) to seniors.During this week,seniors usually get academic or athletic awards they have won over their high school careers.The seniors also vote for one of their male and female classmates who they believe is the best-looking or funniest or most involved,etc.These are then published in the yearbook.
The yearbook is an important part of high school for seniors.It is usually dedicated to them and has all their pictures and some words from them in it.Then seniors go around and get it signed by their friends so they can always remember their time together.
Of course during all of this time,seniors are preparing for the Senior Prom,which is an important moment in American culture.It is the most important dance in a young American’s life.

To find out how the name Canada came about, we must go back to the 16th century. At that time, the French dreamed of discovering and controlling more land across the world. In 1535 Francois I, King of France, ordered a navigator (航海家) named Jacques Cartier to explore the New world and search for a passage to India.
Cartier first arrived at the Gulf of the St. Lawrence, which he wanted to explore. He did not know
what to expect but he hoped that this Gulf was just an arm of the ocean between two islands. If it
was, he would soon be on his way to the Far East. So he sailed upwards along the St. Lawrence
River. However, instead of reaching Asia he arrived at Quebec or Stadacona, as the Indians called
it. It was at this point that the term “Canada” entered the country’s history. Clearly the word
“Canada” came from an Indian word “Kanata”, which means village. Cartier first used it when he
referred to Stadacona or Quebec. What a huge “village” Canada is!
57. What was Cartier ordered to do?
A. To build a new country
B. To find the New World
C. To get in touch with the American Indians
D. To know more about America and find a new way to Asia
58. When Cartier reached the Gulf of St. Lawrence he hoped ________.
A. he had got to the Far East             B. it was a water way to the New World
C. it was a water way to the Far East       D. he had sailed into the Pacific
59. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Quebec and Stadacona were tow islands.
B. The Indian language for village is Stadacona.
C. Quebec and Stadacona were two villages in Canada.
D. Stadacona was what the Indians called Quebec.
60. Canada was first used to refer to __________.
A. Asia     B. the New World       C. a village         D. Quebec

B
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 to rip them off.
As people spend more time on the web and hackers become more sophisticated, the dangers of storing personal information on computers are growing by the day, security experts say. There are some safeguards, such as never allowing your computer to store your passwords. But even that is 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 prey 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 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 confidential 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 virtually no measures to limit the length of time the information is retained. Some of the tested software even copied the sensitive information, apparently without restraint.
This is the first time anyone has tried to measure the extent of this problem, says Rebecca Wright, a security expert at Stevens Institute of Technology. Garfinkel hopes the results will arouse software developers to take action.
40．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．It is secure to use your password as long as you hit the Return key.
B．Your personal details is likely to be in danger if you spend more time on the web.

D．Never allowing your computer to store your passwords will be safe.
41．Which of the following is NOT the reason for the unsafety of a password?
A．It will be stored in RAM.
B．It will be copied onto hard disk.
C．It might not be overwritten.
D．It will disappear as soon as you hit the return key.
42．Tal Garfinkel and his team measured the extent of security of .
A．simulating the working of a complete computer system
B．tagging sensitive data
C．passing through the system
D．running common software
43 What can be inferred from the passage?
A．The length of the time the information is stored is not limited.
B．The programs can not retain the information.
C．The security problem should be paid more attention to.
D．Some sensitive information has been copied.
