问答题
Read the passage carefully to find the answers for Questions 1 to 5. Answer each question in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.  Questions 1to 5are based on the following passage.  In many businesses, computers have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, flexible, and do not make mistakes. As one banker said, “Unlike humans, computers never have a bad day.” And they are honest. Many banks advertise that their transactions are “untouched by human hands” and therefore safe from human temptation (诱惑). Obviously, computers have no reason to steal money. But they also have no conscience (良知), and the growing number of computer crimes shows they can be used to steal.  Computer criminals don’t use guns. And even if they are caught, it is hard to punish them because there are no witness and often no evidence. A computer cannot remember who used it: it simply does what it is told. The head teller at a New York bank used a computer to steal more than one and a half billion dollars in just four years. No one noticed this theft because he moved the money from one account to another. Each time a customer he had robbed questioned the balance in his account, the teller claimed a computer error, then replaced the missing money from someone else’s account. This man was caught only because he was a gambler. When the police broke up an illegal gambling operation, his name was in the records.  Some employees use the computer’s power to get revenge (报复) on their employers they consider unfair. Recently, a large insurance company fired its computer-tape librarian for reasons that involved her personal rather than her professional life. She was given thirty days notice. In those thirty days, she erased all the firm’s computerized records.  Most computer criminals have been minor employees. Now police wonder if this is “the tip of the iceberg”. As one official says, “I have the feeling that there is more crime out there than we are catching. What we are seeing now is all so poorly done. I wonder what the real experts are doing—the ones who know how a computer works.”  Questions:1.What is the passage mainly about?  2.Why did many banks claim the transactions to be safe?  3.How did the bank teller cover up his crime?  4.What must the librarian do thirty days after she received the notice?  5.What is the difference between computer criminals and ordinary criminals?

正确答案:
1.Computer crimes. / Computer criminals. 本文主要讲述的是借助计算机实施的犯罪行为。
2.Because they are untouched by human hands / are handled by computers. 由文章第一段可知,人们普遍认为不经人手的操作(或电脑操作)是非常安全的,因为他们觉得这样可排除由于人抵不住诱惑而犯错。
3.By claiming a computer error. 由第二段中间部分Each time a customer he had robbed questioned the balance in his account, the teller claimed a computer error…可知,出纳员用计算机错误来掩饰他的罪行。
4.Leave her job. / Quit her work. 第三段提到Recently, a large insurance company fired its computer-tape librarian…She was given thirty days notice.。the librarian被公司开除了,也就意味着她要离开她的工作岗位或停止工作。
5.the computer criminals don’t use guns. 根据文章第二段第一句话可知,计算机犯罪和一般犯罪的区别在于前者不使用枪,即使他们被抓住了也很难找到证人或证据。

第5题:

单选题
A: Hi. Excuse me... um... do you need any help?  B: ______
A

Yes, but are you sure you can help me?

B

Oh, yes. Do you have tennis shoes?

C

Well, I’d like one chicken burger and a cup of coke, please.

D

Oh, yes, I do. I’ve been walking around in circles. I can’t seem to find the train station.


正确答案: D
解析:
A方主动向B方提供帮助,B方需作出接受或谢绝对方好意的答复。B项和C项通常是对”Can I help you?”作出的答复,但显然不符合这一对话场合的要求;A项前半部分对,后半部分提出需要什么帮助,这不符合这一对话的逻辑关系。D项是在这种情景下正确的回答。
