Hillary Clinton

Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton (/ˈhɪləri daɪˈæn ˈrɒdəm ˈklɪntən/ ; born October 26, 1947) isan American politician and former United States Secretary of State in the administration of President Barack Obama from 2009 to 2013; a former United States Senator representing New York from 2001 to 2009; and, as the wife of President Bill Clinton, was First Lady of the United States from 1993 to 2001. She wasa leading candidate for the Democratic Party'snomination to the 2008 presidential election and has announced her candidacy for the Democratic nomination in the2016 presidential election.A native of Illinois, Hillary Rodham was the first student commencement speaker at Wellesley College in 1969 and earned a J.D. from Yale Law School in 1973. After a stint as a Congressional legal counsel, she moved to Arkansasand married Bill Clinton in 1975. She cofounded Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families in 1977, she became the first female chair of the Legal Services Corporation in 1978, and became the first female partner at Rose Law Firm in 1979. The National Law Journal twice listed her as one of the hundred most influential lawyers in America. During her tenure as First Lady of Arkansas from 1979 to 1981 and 1983 to 1992, she led a task force that reformed Arkansas's education system and sat on the board of directors of Wal-Mart and several other corporations.As First Lady of the United States, her major initiative, the Clinton health care plan of 1993, failed to gain approval from the U.S. Congress. In 1997 and 1999, she played a leading role in advocating the creation of theState Children's Health Insurance Program, the Adoption and Safe Families Act, and the Foster Care Independence Act. Her years as First Lady drew a polarized response from the American public. The only First Lady to have beensubpoenaed, she testified before a federal grand jury in 1996 regardingthe Whitewater controversy, but was never charged with wrongdoing in this or several other investigations during her husband's presidency. Her marriage to the president was subjected to considerable public discussion following the Lewinsky scandal of 1998.After moving to New York, Clinton was elected in 2000 the first female senator from the state; she is the only First Lady ever to have run for public office. Following the September 11 attacks, shesupported military action in Afghanistan and the Iraq Resolution, but subsequently objected to the George W. Bush administration's conduct of the Iraq war. She opposed most of Bush's domestic policies. Clintonwas re-elected to the Senate in 2006. Running in the 2008 Democratic presidential primaries, Clinton wonfar more primaries and delegates than any other female candidate in American history, but narrowly lost the nomination to Obama.As Secretary of State in the Obama administration from January 2009 to February 2013, Clinton was at the forefront of the U.S. response to the Arab Spring and advocated the U.S. military intervention in Libya. She took responsibility for security lapses related to the 2012 Benghazi attack, which resulted in the deaths of American consulate personnel, but defended her personal actions in regard to the matter. Clinton visited more countries than any other Secretary of State. She viewed "smart power" as the strategy for asserting U.S. leadership and values, by combining military power with diplomacy and American capabilities in economics, technology, and other areas. She encouraged empowerment of women everywhere and used social media to communicate the U.S. message abroad. Leaving office at the end of Obama's first term, she authored her fifth book and undertook speaking engagements before announcing her second run for the presidency in April 2015.。

希拉里新自传《艰难抉择》回忆母亲

希拉里新自传《艰难抉择》回忆母亲

Ahead of another possible presidential run, Hillary Clinton is opening up about her life in a new memoir, "Hard Choices," set to bepublished next month.在新一轮的总统竞选前期,希拉里·克林顿在她新的自传——《艰难抉择》中披露了她的个人生活。

And in an excerpt published by Vogue on Mother's Day, Clinton remembers how her mother, Dorothy Howell Rodham, comforted her following her loss in the 2008 campaign."Having her so close became a source of great comfort to me, especially inthe difficult period after the end of the 2008 campaign," Clinton writes. "I'd come home from a long day at the Senate or the State Department, slide in next to her at the small table in our breakfast nook, and let everything just pour out."Dorothy Howell Rodham died in 2011 at age 92."When I became Secretary of State, Mom was just about to turn 90," Clinton writes. "She had been living with us in Washington for the past few years, ever since being alone in her apartment overlooking the zoo on Connecticut Avenue became too much. Like so many Americans of my generation, I felt both blessed to have these extra years with an aging parent and very responsible for making sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Mom gave me so much unconditional love and support when I was growing up in Park Ridge, Illinois; now it was my turn to support her."She "loved mystery novels, Mexican food, 'Dancing with the Stars'" and her grandchildren, including Chelsea Clinton, the former first daughter. "For Chelsea, her grandmother was one of the most important figures in her life," Clinton writes. "Mom helped Chelsea navigate the unique challenges of growing up in the public eye and, when she was ready, encouraged her to pursue her passion for service and philanthropy."I'm not sure if I ever saw Mom happier than at Chelsea's wedding," Clinton continues. She "exulted over her joyful, radiant granddaughter."Rodham's "own childhood was marked by trauma(创伤) and abandonment":In Chicago her parents fought frequently and divorced when she and her sister were young. Neither parent was willing to care for the kids, so theywere put on a train to California to live with their paternal grandparents in Alhambra, a town near the San Gabriel Mountains east of Los Angeles. The elderly couple was severe and unloving. One Halloween, after Mom was caught trick-or-treating with school friends, a forbidden activity, she was confined to her room for an entire year, except for the hours she was in school. She wasn't allowed to eat at the kitchen table or play in the yard.精彩推荐:必克英语/。

专四英语考试听力要点及应试技巧

专四英语考试听力要点及应试技巧

专四英语考试听⼒要点及应试技巧 专四英语听⼒是考试的重点,那么应该如何得分呢?以下是店铺为⼤家搜索整理的专四英语考试听⼒要点及应试技巧,希望对正在关注的您有所帮助!更多精彩内容请及时关注我们应届毕业⽣考试⽹! 对策⼀: (⼀)听写 1.听写的测试要点听写所涉及的知识⼤致可分为语⾔因素和⾮语⾔因素两⼤类。

语⾔因素主要指语⾔知识,即语⾔基本功中包括诸如语⾔知识、词汇知识、句法知识和语⽤知识等。

现分述1)语⾔知识。

包括对英语每⼀个⾳的发⾳部位和发⾳⽅法,对元⾳和辅⾳的语⾳特征及区别,对⾳节结构和同化的规则,对省⾳和加⾳的现象,以及对语调和重⾳规则等知识的了解和掌握。

2)词汇知识。

包括对英语词汇的分类、构词规则,以及习语、短语的了解和掌握。

3)句法与语义知识。

包括对句⼦结构,句型转换规则,语义特征如歧义、反义等知识的了解和掌握。

4)语⽤知识。

包括对语⾔⾏为的预设、指⽰以及语⾔环境等相关知识的了解和掌握。

2.听写的基本应试对策1)注意语⾳问题。

误听是听写中常出现的错误。

很多考⽣有这样的体会:有些单词写出来认识,但在录⾳中却听不出来或听错。

这种情况经常发⽣。

因为在英语⾥,同⼀个字母就有多种不同的读⾳,例如:bag, what, class, alike等词中的字母“a”的读⾳就各不相同。

⽽同⼀个读⾳可以⽤⼏个不同的字母来表⽰,例如:[i]的读⾳,在busy, private, homeless, women, la dies, hymn, give, Sunday等词中的拼写形式⼜不相同。

所以考⽣⼀定要弄懂某⼀字母在具体单词中的正确发⾳,以及某⼀单词中每个字母的正确发⾳,以免在听⼒上产⽣错觉。

2)处理好听与写的关系。

听与写是⼀对⽭盾。

由于时间限制,有些考⽣可能出现顾了听⽽来不及写或顾了写⽽影响听的现象。

因此,在听写中必须正确处理好两者的关系。

在听写中,写应依据以下三个步骤:①听;②边听边写;③边听边检查。

Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton

Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton

United States Senator
When New York's long-serving United States Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan announced his retirement in November 1998, several prominent Democratic figures, including Representative Charles B. Rangel of New York, urged Clinton to run for Moynihan's open seat in the Senate election of 2000. She became the first first lady of the United States to be a candidate for elected office.
Response to Lewinsky scandal

. . . . .
.
. .
In 1998, the Clintons' relationship became the subject of much speculation when investigations revealed that the President had had an extramarital affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. Events surrounding the Lewinsky scandal eventually led to the impeachment of Bill Clinton by the House of Representatives. When the allegations against her husband were first made public, Hillary Clinton stated that they were the result of a "vast right-wing conspiracy", rather than any wrongdoing by her husband.After the evidence of President Clinton's encounters with Lewinsky became incontrovertible, she issued a public statement reaffirming her commitment to their marriage, but privately was reported to be furious at him and was unsure if she wanted to stay in the marriage.The White House residence staff noticed a pronounced level of tension between the couple during this period.

大学英语阅读三级Passage

大学英语阅读三级Passage

大学英语阅读三级PassageThe secret of being born lucky is a summer birthday, with May babies most likely to enjoy a lifetime’s good fortune, according to a study of more than 40,000 people. The time of year at which you are born has an enduring influence on levels of optimism and self-reported luck, according to research by British and Swedish scientists. May was the luckiest month in which to be born, with 50 per cent of those born then considering themselves lucky, while October was the least lucky month, with just 43 percent claiming good fortune.The findings add to growing evidence that the phenomenon of luck is not all down to chance, but is affected by a person’ s general disposition.Other research has shown that whether people think themselves fortunate depends less on objective success than on having a “glass half-full” or “half-empty” approach to life. “What we are seeing suggests that something is influencing how people perceive their luckiness. My hypothesis is that people create their own luck by traits such as optimism, that luck is a psychological phenomenon rather than a matter of blind chance,” said Professor Richard Wise man, who led the research.The pattern of the results, with those born in spring and summer reporting themselves luckier than those born in autumn or winter, could have two potential explanations, Professor Wiseman said.1. According to the passage, whether people think themselves lucky not depends on the following factors EXCEPT ______A) one’s objective success B) one’s general dispositionC) one’s attitude to life D) one’s place of birth2. According to the passage, those who were born in _______ regard themselves as the most fortunate.A) March B) April C) May D) October3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A) Optimistic people tend to be luckier.B) Devoted people tend to be luckier.C) Objective success is more important than one’s general disposition in feeling lucky.D) People drinking more water tend to be luckier.4. Which of the following words can best replace the word “trait”(Line 8, Para.2)?A) quality. B) expectation. C) belief. D) idea.is the best title for the passage?A) Luck is Something Born.B) Luck is Not All Down to Chance.C) Luck is A Matter of Blind Chance.D) Luck and Age.Passage 2Researchers say most of us make instant judgement about a person on the basis of how they look. They say facial features can determine whether we like or trust someone. It may even influence how we vote.“Over the years, we have found that facial features affect the way many of us perceive others,” says Elisabeth Cornwell, a psychology researcher at the university’s Perception Laboratory. Studies suggest that people are less likely to trust those with particularly masculine features, such as a square jaw, small eyesor big nose. “They are perceived as dominant and less trustworthy,” says Ms Cornwell. “It doesn’t mean that men who look more masculine are less trustworthy—It’s just our first impressions. “ Those with less masculine features—larger eyes, a smaller nose and thinner lips—are deemed to be more trustworthy. “We are very good at processing these features quickly,” says Ms Cornwell.The researchers are putting their science to the test at the Royal society’s annual summer exhibition in London. They have subtly manipulated the faces of Prime Minister T ony Blair, Conservative leader Michael Howard and Liberal Democrat leader Charles Kennedy accentuating their dominant and tru stworthy features respectively. “We have u sed a computer programme to change the shape of their face and features. We hope it will help people to understand our work.” So should we expect to see Tony Blair, Michael Howard and Charles Kennedy at the exhibi tion getting tips? “I don’t think it’s something they will want to try,” says Ms Cornwell. “It’s not really possible with television. We all know what they look like. I think they would be naive to try it.”1. Why are people less likely to trust those with particularly masculine features?A) Because they are bad-tempered.B) Because they are perceived as dominant and less trustworthy.C) Because they are perceived as tricky.D) Because they are more stubborn.2. According to the passage, which of the following is perceived as a g masculine feature?A) Larger eyes. B) A square jaw.C) A smaller nose. D) Thinner lips.3. What can be inferred from the passage?A) Most of us tend to judge people by how they look.B) Some studies show that people with particular masculine features are more dominant.C) A candidate with less masculine features is more likely to win a vote.D) Most of us are with masculine features.4. Why will Tony Blair not want to change his facial features according to the passage?A) Because he is so popular that everyone knows what he looks like.B) Because he does not want to get tips.C) Because he has great confidence in his looks.D) Because he is very naive.5.. What is the best title for the passage?A) Facial Features.B) How People Perceive Others.C) Facial Features Are Everything.D) How Facial Features Affect One’s First Impression.Passage 3British university entrants expect to be provided with washing machines and dryers in their rooms, and even car parking spaces, a survey has found. Students are also less prepared to tolerate poor quality living conditions than their predecessors, says the survey by British polling organization Mori.More than 1,000 full-time undergraduates and postgraduates from 21 universities across the UK were surveyed for the research. It shows that location is the key factor in choosing accommodation for students—nearly half of thoseinterviewed said that being close to their place of study was the most important factor in their choice. Cost came second, with evidence that many parents foot the bills for their children’s rent. The survey also shows that students are no longer prepared to carry bags of washing to the nearest launderette. These newcomers expect washers and dryers to be provided with their ac commodation. The study also highlights those things today’s students expect as standard—communal areas to be cleaned regularly, utility bills to be included, even private car parking space to be included.Separate findings from the UK’s National Union of S tudents published earlier this year show more than half of students in private rented accommodation are living in unsatisfactory conditions.1. Who are the subjects of the survey?A) Some oversea students in U. K.B) Some undergraduates and postgraduates in U. K. universities.C) Some graduates in U. K. universities.D) Some British students in other countries.2. What kind of accommodation is the most attractive to students according to the survey by British polling organization Mori?A) An apartment near their universities.B) A cheap house far way from their universities.C) An apartment with car parking space.D) An apartment with washing machines.3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A) The survey described in the passage is conducted by UK‘ s National Union ofStudents.B) Most of the subjects are from universities in London.C) Most college students pay the rent by themselves.D) Students think that communal areas should be cleaned regularly by cleaners rather than themselves.4. According to the passage, the choice of accommodation is influenced by the following factors EXCEPT ______.A) convenience B) comfortC) low rents D) weather5. What does the survey indicate?A) U. K. university students are increasingly satisfied with their living conditions.B) U. K. university students are less and less energetic.C) U. K. university students demand higher qualities of their living conditions.D) U. K. university students pay less and less attention to their studies. Passage 4The former first lady and now New York Senator, Hillary Rodham Clinton, has written a book about her eight years in the White House. It is being released with a great deal of public fanfare. The book reveals details about the notorious Monica Lewinsky scandal involving her husband, President Clinton.In Living History, the wife of former President Clinton recounts the moment when Mr. Clinton informed her that he had, fact, had what he called “a relationship that was not appropriate” with Miss Lewins ky, then a White House intern. She writes, “I’ could hardly breathe. Gulping for air, I started crying and yelling at him. What do you mean? What are you saying? Why did you lie to me? I was furious and getting more so by the second. Hejust stood th ere s aying over and over again, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I was trying to protect you and Chelsea, referring to their daughter.”Mrs. Clinton says she hopes that people will read the book for more than intimate details of her troubled marriage. “It’ s a pretty lo ng book, and it’s about my life, and it’s about all of the issues that I’ve worked on, particularly on behalf of women and children, and things that I’ ye cared about literally since I was a little girl,” she said. “I think it will give people more insight and, perhaps, answer questions. It’s also my story.”Publisher Simon & Schuster paid Senator Clinton $ 8 million for the 560-page book, and has ordered an unusually large first printing of one-million copies. Publishing rights to the book already have been sold in 16 countries.1. What appeals to the readers most in the book Living History according to the passage?A) Hilary’s eight years in the White House.B) Hilary’s troubled marriage.C) The issues that Hilary have worked on.D) Hilary’s life as a sena tor.2.

Which of the following can best describe Hilary’s reaction when Mr. Clinton told her his inappropriate relationship with Miss Lewinsky?A) Indifferent. B) Calm.C) Angry. D) Astonished.4. What is Hilary’s comment on her own book?A) It is more than interesting.B) It can meet the need of people to know about other’ s intim acy.C) It is an academic bookD) The language of the book is beautiful.5. What CANNOT be inferred from the passage?A) Living History is expected to sell well.B) Living History will be published beyond America.C) Mrs. Clinton is well paid for the book Living History.D) Mr. Clinton is a responsible husband.passage 5The human form of mad cow disease, an incurable, brain-wasting illness that’s killed more than 100 people in Britain, has claimed its first Canadian victim. Canadian health officials confirmed Thursday that the unidentified man died sometime this summer. The man, who lived in the western province of Saskatchewan, contracted the disease from eating contaminated meat while traveling in Britain.Dr. Antonio Giulivi, an official with the government agency Health Canada, quickly moved to calm fears by assuring the public the disease had not entered the Canadian food supply.The variant of the cow-killing illness, known as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, is believed to be caused when ground parts of diseased cattle are mixed into cattle feed and those cows are turned into processed meats for human consumption. Though the disease cannot be confirmed until an autopsy is performed on the dead brain, symptoms of human infection include uncontrolled shaking, dementia and finally paralysis.But while government officials insisted safeguards are in place to keep the disease out of Canadian meat, warnings were issued to 71 patients at the hospital where the infected man wastreated before his illness was identified. Those patients had been treated with the same medical instruments used on the diseased man. Though the instruments were cleaned and disinfected, officials said a theoretical possibility remains that those people could have been infected.News of the death initially sent Canadian restaurant stocks into a tailspin, but most of them recovered by the end of the trading session.1. Where is the Canadian supposed to contact mad cow disease?A) In Saskatchewan. B) In Britain.C) In Canada. D) Not mentioned.2. Which part of the body does the mad cow disease mainly affect?A) Hands. B) Legs.C) Brain. D) Liver.3. Why did the Canadian government issue warnings to 71 patients?A) They ever used the same medical instruments with the first Canadian victim.B) They were intimate relatives of the first Canadian victim.C) They had ever traveled to Britain.D) They were supposed to have contacted mad cow disease.4. What did Health Canada do after the mad cow disease infected a Canadian?A) Health Canada concealed the truth by all means.B) Health Canada tried to remove public fear.C) Health Canada succeeded in curing the victim.D) Health Canada tried to find ways to cure the disease.5. What can be inferred from the passage?A) The news of the mad cow disease death has no effect on Canadian economy.B) We can decide whether a person contract mad cow disease by the symptoms of uncontrolled shaking, dementia and paralysis.C) Some cows in Canada contracted mad cow disease.D) The mad cow disease is not completely known to the scientists yet.Passage 6A United Nations report is sounding an alarm on the state of the earth’s natural resources, in advance of this month’ s U. N. -sponsored sustainable development summit in Johannesburg.The report says sea levels rose and forests were destroyed at unprecedented rates during the last decade. It notes that more than 40 percent of the world’s population—two billion people now face water shortages. And it predicts that with the global population expected to increase from six billion to eight billion people over the next 25 years, further environmental stress is expected. . Undersecretary General Nitin Desai says the most important message in the report is that the world’s environmental crises are interrelated. As an example, he cites the “Asian Brown Cloud,” a “poisonous cocktail” of particulate matter, chemicals, and various aerosols currently hanging over a vast area of southeast Asia.“Here you have a situation which arises because of the unsustainable way energy is used in this region, which is leading to these problems which impact on agriculture, on water, on health,” said Mr. Desai. “If you really want to address water, agriculture and health, you have to address energy. You can’t reduce poverty unless you also address land and water. Youcan’t improve children’s hea lth without addressing water and sanitation and air quality.”Mr. Desai, who will lead the Earth Summit, says that governments must form specific partnerships to reduce threats in five areas: water, energy, agriculture, biodiversity and health.1. When is the . report mentioned in the passage released?A) At the sustainable development summit.B) Before the Earth Summit.C) After the sustainable development summit.D) Last year.2. “Asian Brown Cloud” is used as an example to show that ______A) environmental protection needs cooperation.B) Asia is the most polluted area in the world.C) air pollution in Asia is very serious.D) travelers are warned not to visit Asia.3.

What doe s the word “address” (Line 4, Para. 3) mean?A) Speak to. B) Make a formal speech to.C) Deal with. D) Make use of.5. What can be inferred from the passage?A) Natural resource shortage will be a great problem in the future.B) Poverty can be reduced by increasing production.C) Sustainable development is impossible.D) Southeast Asia is the most polluted area in the world.Passage 7The University of Chicago is a private, nondenominational, coeducational institution of higher learning and research. It is located in the community of Hyde Park—South Ken-wood, a culturally rich and ethnically diverse neighborhood, seven miles south of downtown Chicago.The University was founded by John D. Rockefeller. William Rainey Harper was its first president. Classes began on October 1, 1892, with an enrollment of 594 students and a faculty of 103, including eight former college presidents. In 1930 the undergraduate College and the graduate divisions were created. Such cross-fertilization continues to characterize the University.Candidates for admission to graduate programs in the divisions at the University of Chicago should address their inquiries, including requests for application forms, to the dean of students of the graduate division to which application is being made.An applicant who holds a degree from an accredited institution is considered for admission on the basis of (1) an undergraduate record, (2) a well-organized plan for graduate study, (3) Graduate Record Examination (GRE) and TOEFL scores, where required, and (4) recommendations from three college faculty members acquainted with the character, ability, potential, qualifications, and motivation of he applicant.

Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less frequently, the two- year study showed. And it wasn’t that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually appeared to cause the bad feelings.Researchers are puzzling over the results, which were complete contrary to their expectations. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others. The fact that Internet use reduces time available for family and friends may account for the drop in well-being, researchers hypothesized. Faceless, bodiless“virtual”communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation, and the relationships formed through it may be shallower. Another possibility is that exposure the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.“But it’s important to remember this is not about the technology per se ; it’s about how it is used,” says psychologist Christine Riley of Intel, one of the study’s sponsors. “It reallypo ints he need for considering social factors in terms of how you design applications and services for technology.”1. The word “well-being” (Line 1, Para. 1) is c losest in meaning toA) trouble B) health C) depression D) excitement2. What is the intended conclusion of the research conducted by Carnegie?A) Internet use may lead to mental dissatisfaction.B) Internet use is sure to cause a decline in mental well-being.C) People who spend just a few hours on the Internet will be happier.D) People who use TV are less socially healthier than those who use the Internet.3. Which of the following CANNOT explain the result of the research according to the passage?A) Internet users may spend less time with their family and friends.B) The “virtual” communication may be less psychologically satisfying.C) Internet users may be less satisfied with their lives.D) Internet users make too many friends through the Internet.4. What lessons may be drawn from the result of the research?A) We should not have developed the Internet technology.B) We should change the way we use the Internet.C) We need Internet technology very much.D) TV is more useful than the Internet.5. What is the best title for the passage?A) The Popularity of Internet Use.B) The History of Internet Use.C) The Harm of Internet Use.D) The Fast Development of Internet Use.Passage 9The computer virus is an outcome of the computer overgrowth in the 1980s. The cause of the term “computer virus” is the likeness between the biolo gical virus and the evil program infected with computers. The origin of this term came from an American science fiction The Adolescence of P-1written by Thomas J. Ryan, published in 1977. Human viruses invade a living cell and turn it into a factory for manufacturing viruses. However, computer viruses are small programs. They replicate by attaching a copy of themselves to another program.Once attached to me host Program, the viruses then look for other programs to“infect”. In this way, the virus can spre ad quickly throughout a hard disk or an entire organization when it infects a LAN or a multi-user system. At some point, determined by how the virus was programmed the virus attacks. The timing of the attack can be linked to a number of situations, including a certain time or date, the presence of a particular file, the security privilege level of the user, and the number of times a file is used. Likewise, the mode of attack varies. So-called “benign”viruses might simply display a message, like the one tha t infected IBM’s main computer system last Christmas with a season’s greeting. Malignant viruses are designed to damage the system. The attack is to wipe out data, to delete files, or to format the hard disk.1. What results in the wide spread of computer viruses according to the passage?A) The overgrowth of computer.B) The likeness between the biological virus and evil program.C) The American science fiction The Adolescence of P-ID) The weak management of the government.2. What is computer virus in fact?A) A kind of biological virus.B) A kind of evil program.C) A kind of biological worm.D) Something that only exists in the fictions.3. What usually determines the variety of the virus attacks?A) The time the attack is made.B) The presence of a particular file.C) The security privilege level of the user.D) The different ways the virus was programmed.4. What is the harm of “benign” viruses according to the passage?A) “Benign” virus might wipe out data from the computer.B) “Benign” virus might de lete files.C) “Benign” virus might display a message.D) “Benign” virus might format the hard disk.5. Where does the term “computer virus” come from?A) It comes from a play.B ) It comes from a computer game.C) It comes from a science fiction.D) It comes from a news report.Passage 10Fast food, a mainstay of American eating for decades, may have reached a high in the United States as the maturing baby-boom generation looks for a more varied menu. Fast food still represents a $ 102 billion a year industry, but growth has turned sluggish recently amid tough competition from retail food stores and a more affluent population willing to try new things andspend more, analysts say.Signs of trouble in fast food include price-cutting by industry leaders, including efforts by McDonald’s to attract customers with a 55cent hamburger, and major players pulling out or selling. 0’ Pepsico, for example, is selling its fast-food restaurant divi sion that includes Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and KFC. “It’s becoming harder a nd harder for these firms to grow,” said Jim Brown, a professor of marketing at Virginia Tech University. “I think in the United States fast food has reached a saturation point becaus e of the number of competitors and the number of outlets.”Fast-food restaurant revenues grew 2. 5 per cent in 1996, according to industry figures, the slowest since the recession of 1991. That is a far cry from the levels of the 1970s and1980s. According to the Food Marketing Institute, consumers are using supermarkets for 21 per cent of take-home food, nearly double the level of a year ago. While fast-food restaurants still lead, their share slipped significantly, from 48 per cent in 1996 to 41 percent in 1997.1. According to the passage, the following factors EXCEPT _____ lead to the slower growth of fast food industry.A) the tough competitionB) a richer populationC) the saturation of marketD) the lower quality of fast food2. Which of the following signs does NOT show that fast food industry is experiencinga hard time?A) Price-cutting by industry leaders.B) The leading role of fast food in the market of take-home foodC) The selling of KFC.D) The pulling out of some fast food restaurant.3. Who is a strong competitor to fast-food restaurants in the market take-home food according to the passage?A) Supermarkets. B) Chinese restaurants. C) Hotels. D) Groceries.4. What can be inferred from the passage?A) Fast-food restaurant revenues are declining.B) Fast food is very popular in the 1970s and the 1980s.C) The baby boom generation has never liked fast food.D) Rich people like fast food more.5. What is the passage mainly concerned about?A) The popularity of fast food.B) The disadvantage of fast food.C) The troubles of fast food.D) The advantages of fast food.。
