Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.Time limitation: 3 minutes and 48 seconds

A scandal (丑闻) at the University of Virginia last week has focused attention on the battle against copying from the Internet, which has made cheating (欺骗) in the Information Age easier, faster and-until now-harder to catch.

In one case, 122 students are guilty of copying information for a physics exam. They could be expelled (开除) or lose their recently earned degrees from the school in Charlottesville, Virginia, U.S.A. Suspicion (怀疑) surfaced when a student who scored poorly on a paper complained to physics Professor Louis Bloomfield that some people were getting better grades by copying others' work. Bloomfield created a computer program to search for similar phrasing of six consecutive (连续的) words or more. He ran 1,500 program and found 122 had similar wording-including 60 papers that were nearly the same. His widely reported findings illustrate how some have taken advantage of the online world.

\"The school is really struggling with this issue of how easy it is to copy from the Net,\" said Wendy Robinson, who teaches an \"Ethics（道德）and the Internet\" course at Duke University. \"It really runs wild on campuses.\" At the urging of university officials, more than a dozen states have fought back by passing laws against the sale of term papers that can be passed off as students' own work.

Part 6 Reading Comprehension (Multiple

Choice)

(每小题：2 分)

Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.For world news, people now turn to the Internet to learn about events as they are happening. The Pathfinder mission to Mars (火星) and the problems with the space station drew millions of people to the Web for more up-to-date detail than were available

elsewhere.

A change like this is often generational. Where older people have to learn something new outside their everyday experiences, kids who grow up with a new technology simply treat it as given. Colleges in particular are providing the basis for a Web ready culture.

Today in the United States, there are over 22 million adults using the Web, about half of whom access the Internet at least once a day. Meanwhile, the variety of activities on the Web is broadening at an amazing rate. There is almost no topic for which you cannot find fairly interesting material on the Web. Many of these sites are getting excellent traffic flow. Want to buy a dog? Or sell a share? Or order a car? Use the Internet. Where are we going to get the time to live with the Web? In some instances, people will actually save time because the Web will make doing things better and more quickly than in the past. Being able to get information about a major buy is one example. Finding out how much your used car is worth is another. And finding the cheapest way of getting to Florida is a third. This information is very easy to find on the Web, even today. In other instances, people will trade the time they now entertainment they will find on the computer screen. People, particularly young ones, will spend less time in front of a television screen, and more on the Web.

spend reading the paper, or watching television, for information or

1.People wanted to see the troubles experienced by ______.A. the internet

3.What can we understand from the second paragraph?A. The web culture is generational and older people cannot possibly bridge over it.

B. The web culture is dominated by young people because they are more eager to learn it.

C. Young people find it easy to absorb newly-established technologies.

D. Older people are set in their ways and they don't want to acquire new knowledge.

4.What is done by around 11 million people?A. They buy things on the internet.

B. They provide fairly interesting information.C. They broaden the activities on the net.D. They use the internet every day.

5.How will people find time for the net?A. The net will actually save them time.B. The net will provide excellent traffic flow.C. The net will offer shares of time to buy.D. The net will become quicker than in the past.

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.British writer Arthur C. Clarke's science fiction novel Childhood's End describes a future world society. The following is part of his description.

By the standards (标准) of all earlier ages, it was Utopia (a perfect society). Ignorance, disease, poverty(贫穷), and fear had actually stopped existing. The memory of war was fading into the past as a bad dream disappears with the dawn; soon it would lie outside the experience of all living men.

With the energies of society going to construction sites, the face of the world had been remade. It was a new world. Production had become largely automatic: the robot (机器人) factories produced goods in such unending production lines that all the ordinary goods of life were practically free. Men worked in the interest of the comfort they wanted; or they did not work at all.

It was one world, although the old names of the old countries were still used. There was no one on earth who could not speak English, who could not read, who was not within range of a television set, who could not visit the other side of the world within twenty-four hours.

Crime had almost disappeared. It had become both unnecessary and impossible. When no one lacks anything, there is no point in stealing.

One of the most obvious changes had been a slowing down of the mad speed that had so described (赋予......特征) the twentieth century. Life was freer than it had been for generations. It, therefore, had less competing for the few, but more peace for the many. Western man had relearned-what the rest of the world had never forgotten-that there was nothing wrong with relaxing (休闲) as long as it did not fall into ordinary laziness.

Education was now much more thorough and much more common. Few people left college before twenty-and that was merely the first stage, since they usually returned again at twenty-five for at least three more years, after travel and experience had broadened their minds. Even then, they would probably take review courses at times for the rest of their lives in the subjects that particularly interested them.

Another great change was the great moving ability of the new society. Thanks to the efficiency of air transport, everyone was free to go anywhere at a moment's notice. There was more room in the skies than there had ever been on the roads, and the twenty-first century had repeated, to a large degree, the great American achievement of putting a nation on wheels. It had given wings to

the world.

There were plenty of specialists, but few creative workers broadening the areas of human knowledge. Curiosity remained, and the free time to enjoy it, but the heart had been taken out of original scientific research. It seemed fruitless to spend a lifetime searching for secrets that the great creators had probably found ages before...

6.In the last sentence of the first paragraph the word \"it\" refers to ________.A. the memory of warB. the warC. the bad dreamD. the past

construction sites\" (Para. 3) means that ________.A. when workers go to the building sitesB. when workers put all their efforts into building

C. when workers put all their energies into building factoriesD. when workers use all the energies on the construction sites
