填空题In brand-new offices with a still-empty game room and enough space to triple their staff of nearly 30, a trio of entrepreneurs is leading an Internet start-up with an improbable mission: to out-Google Google. The three started Powerset, a company whose aim is to deliver better answers than any other search engine—including Google—by letting users type questions in plain English. And they have made believers of Silicon Valley investors whose fortunes turn on identifying the next big thing. Powerset is hardly alone. (41) . And Wikia Inc, a company started by a founder of Wikipedia, plans to develop a search engine that. like the popular Web-based encyclopedia, would be built by a community of programmers and users. (42) . It also shows how much the new Internet economy resembles a planetary system where everything and everyone orbits around search in general, and around Google in particular. Silicon Valley is filled with start-ups whose main business proposition is to be bought by Google, or for that matter by Yahoo or Microsoft. Countless other start-ups rely on Google as their primary driver of traffic or on Google's powerful advertising system as their primary source of income. Virtually all new companies compote with Google for scarce engineering talent. (43) "There is way too much obsession with search, as if it were the end of the world." said Esther Dyson, a well-known technology investor and forecaster. "Google equals money equals search equals search advertising; it all gets combined as if this is the last great business model." It may not be the last great business model, but Google has proved that search linked to ,advertising is a very large and lucrative business, and everyone—including Ms. Dyson, who invested a small sum in Powerset—seems to want a piece of it. Since the beginning of 2004, venture capitalists have put nearly $350 million into no fewer than 79 start-ups that had something to do with Internet search, according to the National Venture Capital Association, an industry group. (44) Since Google's stated mission is to organize all of the world's information, they may still find themselves in the search giant's cross hairs. That is not necessarily bad, as being acquired by Google could be a financial bonanza for some of these entrepreneurs and investors. (45) . Powerset recently received $12.5 million in financing. Hakia, which like Powerset is trying to create a "natural language" search engine, got $16 million. Another $16 million went to Snap, which has focused on presenting search results in a more compelling way and is experimenting with a new advertising model. And ChaCha. which uses paid researchers that act as virtual reference librarians to provide answers to users' queries. got $6.1 million. Still, recent history suggests that gaining traction is going to be difficult. Of dozens of search start-ups that were introduced in recent years, none had more than a 1 percent share of the United States search market in November. according to Nielsen NetRatings, a research firm that measures Internet traffic.[A] Powerset could possibly steal a lead if it improves search results by a significant measure with natural language and simultaneously incorporates a near-equivalent to Google's existing capabilities.[B] Even as Google continues to outmaneuver its main search rivals, Yahoo and Microsoft, plenty of newcomers—with names like hakia, ChaCha and Snap--are trying to beat the company at its own game.[C] These ambitious quests reflect the renewed optimism sweeping technology centers like Silicon Valley and fueling a nascent Internet boom.[D] But in the current boom, there is money even for those with the audacious goal of becoming a better GooSe.[E] And divining Google's next move has become a fixation for scores of technology blogs and a favorite parlor game among technology investors.[F] An overwhelming majority are not trying to take Google head on, but rather are focusing on specialized slices of the search world, like searching for videos, blog postings or medical information.[G] The venture capitalists made the investment based on an assumption that Powerset would complete the licensing deal,

填空题[A] Running after Them Doesn"t Help Anybody [B] Remember Newton"s Third Law [C] Show Some Respect for the Things They Care About [D] 18 Years Old:The Beginning of Adulthood [E] Know Strength and Weakness of Your Child [F] Don"t Look Under the Mattress [G] Be Consistent When your child becomes a teenager, you"re well over halfway through the job of raising them, and you have only a few years left to instill all those values and principles you want them to go into adult life with. And suddenly, they look as if they"re throwing away all the work you"ve put in up to now. But actually, if you just keep your head, and follow these essential teenage Rules, you"ll find you come out the other end with a terrific adult you can really be proud of. 41.______ Unless your child is putting themselves in serious danger, you really do have to put up with it. The more you try to tell them, the more you push them in the opposite direction. They"re looking for something to kick at, to rebel against, because they"re programmed to. The more force you use, the more they"ll use. Remember Newton"s third law of motion? For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. So what can you do when you see them going wrong? You can tell them what you think, but don"t tell them what to do. 42.______ Teenagers are up to things you don"t want to know about. For example, your daughter has gone further than you"d like with her boyfriend. And they"ve almost certainly been offered drugs, but they won"t have any evidence of it hanging around in their room, so there"s no point looking under the mattress or reading their secret diary. And what are you going to do about it — confront them? I think not. You"ll severely damage your relationship, and they"ll just keep them under the floorboards instead. Maybe you should think back to the things you did as a teenager that you didn"t want your parents to know about. See? Your kids are just being perfectly normal teenagers. 43. ______ It"s one of the many paradoxes of teenagers. On the one hand, they want to rebel, to shock you, to do things that get to you, and on the other hand, they want your approval and your goodwill. So when you criticize your teenager"s choices, you criticize them. It"s an age of fragile egos and easily knocked self-esteem, and it"s easy to make your teenager feel that you disapprove, or even that you don"t like them. Whether it"s their music or their politics or the way they dress or their decision to become vegetarian, they need to know that it"s okay with you. 44.______ You started off with 18 years and counting. How many have you got left? Because when you get to zero, they"ll be on their own. I know parents who are still looking after their kids when they"re 18. And the kids, not being crazy, let them do it. It takes two to play that game. You know your child"s strengths and weaknesses as well as anyone. So think through what they still need to learn, and make sure they do. If they"re hopeless with money, teach them to budget. Get them to do the family shopping for a week on your usual budget, or get firm about not paying to fill up their car beyond the agreed amount. 45. ______ Your kids need to know what is and isn"t acceptable. And they judge that by what was and wasn"t okay yesterday and the day before. If they"re not getting a consistent message, they"re clueless as to how they have to behave, and those all important boundaries aren"t being properly maintained. That means the kids feel confused, insecure, and perhaps even unloved. If you"ve decided that you don"t allow the kids to stay late outside, you have to stick to it. Just because your little one was a bit sad about something today, and you"re feeling a bit down yourself anyway... no, no, no ! Stop right there ! Let them come back at once and it will be ten times harder to say no to them next time, and they won"t understand why. Say no now and you"re only being cruel to be kind.

填空题Translate the following two passages into Chinese．(厦门大学2011研，考试科目：写作与英汉互译)Now I recognize many are pessimistic about this process. The cynics say that Israelis and Palestinians are too distrustful of each other, and too divided internally, to forge lasting peace. Rejectionists on both sides will try to disrupt the process, with bitter words and with bombs and with gunfire. Some say that the gaps between the parties are too big: the potential for talks to break down is too great: and that after decades of failure, peace is simply not possible.I hear those voices of skepticism. But I ask you to consider the alternative. If an agreement is not reached, Palestinians will never know the pride and dignity that comes with their own state. Israelis will never know the certainty and security that comes with sovereign and stable neighbors who are committed to coexistence.
