The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Financial Times and some other newspapers have published articles indicating that cyber attacks targeting Google and several other U.S. companies were from China. Such accusations are biased(有偏见的).
These articles take as evidence that hackers’ IP addresses could be traced back to two schools in China. However, it is common sense that hackers can attack by controlling computers from anywhere in the world. This fact also explains why hackers are hard to be tracked down.
Computers in China are easy to be controlled by hackers as the majority of Chinese Internet users lack security awareness and adequate protection measures.
The hackers’ IP addresses could by no means vindicate(证明正确)the newspapers’ accusations that the attacks were carried out by Chinese citizens or from within China.
The New York Times says one of the schools from which the cyber attacks were said to originate has military support. Another school “has received financing from a high-level government science and technology project.”
The New York Times went to great lengths to mention that “graduates of one of the school’s computer science department are employed by the local military each year.” The paper, however, did not care to tell its readers that a school in China does not need to have any special relationship with the military to have its graduates in uniform. It is also true in the United States, where the New York Times is based.
China’s attitude toward cyber attacks has been unequivocal and has adopted laws against such crimes, as China is one of the countries that suffer from cyber attacks.
The U.S. government, on the other hand, takes an uncertain attitude toward cyber attacks. According to media reports, the U.S. Homeland Security and Defense departments have both openly employed hackers.
People with a “blackhat perspective” and knowing how to “do threat modeling” are the best choices, said Philip Reitinger, Department of Homeland Security deputy undersecretary, at an information security conference last October.
Cyber crimes could cause immense losses to individuals, companies and nations. Effective supervision(监督) and closer international cooperation are ways to improve cyber security. Finger pointing is not.
60. The passage is intended to tell us that __________.
A. IP addresses are often used as evidence to track down hackers
B. it’s not necessary for schools in China to contact the military
C. the U.S government openly employ hackers to deal with cyber attacks
D. the accusations of cyber attacks against China are unreasonable and irresponsible
61. The underlined word “unequivocal” in Paragraph 7 means __________.
A. clear　　 B. negative 　　 C. supportive D. vague
62. We can conclude from the passage that __________.
A. international cooperation and finger pointing are called for to ensure cyber safety
B. people skilled at doing threat modeling don’t have security awareness
C. some hackers work for the U.S. Homeland Security and Defense departments
D. hackers are difficult to catch because they can cause lots of losses to people
63. The passage is organized by __________.
A. raising questions and analyzing figures
B. making descriptions and giving explanations
C. presenting opinions and providing arguments
D. giving definitions and explaining details

Maja Kazazic looked closely down into the aquarium(水族馆). For two years, she’d been watching the injured dolphin named Winter swim around the tank. From a distance, the dolphin seemed approachable enough. Still, as Kazazic prepared to jump into the water, a little panic gradually came into her excitement.
The young woman eased herself into the pool. Despite her fear, she felt strong wearing her new leg. She was ready to make good on a promise from long ago.
In second grade in Mostar, Yugoslavia, Kazazic’s five-year-old cousin, Jasmina, died of leukemia(白血病). Kazazic swore that she would honor the little girl by swimming with a dolphin, an animal they both adored. “Jasmina never got the chance to do it,” says Kazazic, 32, “so I decided that someday I’d do it for her.”
In 1993, during the Bosnian civil war, 16-year-old Kazazic was badly injured. Her left leg was cut off just below the knee and was brought to the United States for treatment. A few months later, Kazazic received her first artificial leg. Because her right leg was also damaged, walking was still very painful. Nonetheless, she managed to graduate from a local high school.
After receiving a BA in psychology, she moved to Florida’s Gulf Coast. She liked watching the dolphins play at the aquarium. A young dolphin, Winter, who had lost her tail in a crab trap, caught Kazazic’s eye: “She swam more like a shrimp(虾) than a dolphin.”
After one doctor’s visit, trainers fit Winter with a high-tech tail. When it was done, Winter swam away fast. Kazazic was impressed. She approached the trainers, who put her in touch with the inventors. Within ten days, she had a new leg and she could walk without pain again.
Eight months later, Kazazic was ready to keep the promise she had made in honor of Jasmina. “After being in a war zone, this should be a piece of cake,” Kazazic said as she lowered herself into the tank. She held out a hand to Winter, who approached cautiously, and then moved away. After a few minutes, the dolphin let Kazazic move her hand gently over her back. The two started an hour-long swim around the pool. When Kazazic climbed out, her parents hugged her. She would have shouted with joy had she not been aware of dolphins’ sensitivity to noise. Instead she quietly said, “I felt I owed somebody something, and now I’ve paid my debt.” Out in the parking lot, she got into her car and shouted loudly and happily all the way.

a. Kazazic was brought to the USA for treatment.
b. Kazazic’s five-year-old cousin, Jasmina, died of leukemia.

Our eating habits(习惯) are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us would rather eat sweets and ice-cream than meat and rice. Sweets and ice-cream are not bad if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite(食欲). It is important for us to eat our meals at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it is a sign that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges(法官) used to decide whether a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not eat the bread, it showed that he was telling lies. Although this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed a very good way of finding out the fact. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in eating anything dry. Because he is worrying, he loses his appetite and does not want to eat.
61. We must have good eating habits because ____.
A. we want to eat more B. we want to enjoy our meals
C. we want to be healthy and strong D．we want to have a good appetite.
62. It is good to eat sweets and ice-cream ____.
A. when we are hungry . B. when we want to C. after the meal D. before the meal

A Father’s day is a day set aside for honouring fathers in church services and in
the home. It’s celebrated in the U.S. in the third Sunday of June. This idea was begun by Mrs John Bruces Dodd, who in 1909 persuaded an organization in Washington to
salute fathers with special church services. The idea was officially agreed to by President Woodrow Wilson in 1916. In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge suggested national celebration of the day to form closer relations between fathers and their children, and to impress upon fathers the full measure of their duties. The red or white rose is recognized as the official Father’s Day flower.

Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook by yourself? Have you been doing Internet shopping rather than going to the stores? What can' t you be bothered to do?
A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults prefer to catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs．
Just over 2000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health, Britain's largest health charity．The results were very astonishing．
About one in six people surveyed （调查） said if their remote control was broken, they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up．
More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus．Worryingly, of the 654 respondents with children, 64% said they were often too tired to play with them．
This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese （肥胖） before they start school．
Dr Sarah Dauncey, medical director of Nuffield Health, said; "People need to get fitter, not only for themselves but also for their families, friends and evidently their pets．If we don't start to take control of this problem, a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most basics of tasks．"
And Scotland's largest city, Glasgow, was ashamed as the most lazy city in the UK, with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise, followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton, both with 67%．
The results cause serious challenges for the National Health Service, where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year．
68．From the passage we can learn that _____．
A．Birmingham is second to Glasgow in laziness
B．half of the parents don't care enough for children
C．one in six people in the UK don't take exercise
D．British people are more lazy than those in other countries
69．The report suggests that some pre-school children in the UK are obese because_______.
A．they have a big appetite B．they have a sweet tooth
C．their parents often work too hard D．their parents seldom play with them
70．According to the passage, overweight might ______．
