单选题Owning a web page sounds cool. You can be the master of the page, putting up your favorite hot sports, news, pop music and latest Hollywood movies, all of which can be found quite easily on the net. But what if the services expose your personal data like birthday, health condition, bank account, ID card and even your personal shortcomings to commercial websites who will use them to strengthen e-marketing? Worse, some business players may pass you by and sell your personal data to other firms to get a profit. The rapid growth of the Internet has led to individual privacy abuse. It will be a headache in the future. Cases are showing up recently that some unethical players earn big money from selling individual profiles on-line. A leading US- based net firm has been spotted using technology to track down every action netizens (网民)make while shopping through its website. Zhang Jing, a 27-year-old staff member at a local lifestyle website, woke up one morning and found her emails were stuffed with junk emails, unwelcome on-line commercial ads and a large amount of sexual stuff. "My mailbox gets full of this awful stuff and I feel sick, " said Zhang. "Laws should be set up as soon as possible, otherwise the problem will get worse. " However, as the Internet goes beyond national borders, protection efforts will be limited without global cooperation. It needs global commitment and a wide respect for the rules of the game. Meanwhile, experts have called for the development of technology and software such as a firewall to protect netizens' privacy. Software that can track down firms who are using technology to follow on-line shopping activities and bar firms who abuse personal data will be available on the market soon. Firms plotting to make an illegal profit from the abuses will shoot themselves in the foot in the end and netizens themselves should be well aware of the issue and resort to legal actions to solve the problem.

单选题Most people buy a lot of gifts just before Christmas. But some people think they buy too much. They have started a special day called Buy Nothing Day. They don"t want anyone to go shopping on that day.
Buy Nothing Day is November 29. It"s 25 days before Christmas. The idea for Buy Nothing Day started in Vancouver, British Columbia. Now people all over the United States celebrate Buy Nothing Day. In California, parents and children get together to read stories, sing songs and paint pictures. The children talk about why they don"t need a lot of toys.
This year in Albuquerque, New Mexico, high school students wanted to tell other students about Buy Nothing Day. They organized a simple dinner to give people information about Buy Nothing Day. They asked restaurants in the neighborhood to donate (赠送) the food. They made posters (海报) and talked to other students about it. The dinner was a big success, and many students agreed not to buy anything on November 29. The students at the high school liked the idea of this new tradition. Next year, they want to have another dinner to inform more people about Buy Nothing Day!

单选题Chess(国际象棋) must be one of the oldest games in the world. An Arab traveler in India in the year 900 wrote that it was played "long, long ago". Chess was probably invented in India. And it has been played everywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400. The name "chess" is interesting. When one player is attacking the other's king, he says, in English, "cheek". When the king has been caught and cannot move anywhere, he says "check mate". These words come from Persian. "Shah mat" means "the king is dead". That is when the game is over, and one player has won. Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could only move one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the board. It would be interesting to know why this has happened! Chess takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You don't have to be a master chess player in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first time the Americans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the chess masters are able to play many people at the same time. The record was set when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people play chess by post. This must make chess the slowest game in the world.

Two sisters,Mildred Hill,a teacher at the
Louisville,Kentucky Experimental Kindergarten.and Dr Patty Hill,the principal of
the same school,together wrote a song for the children,entitled"Good Morning to
All"．When Mildred combined her musical talents，as the resident experton
spiritual songs,and as the organist for her church,with her sister's expertise
in the area of kindergarten education,"Good Morning to All"was sure to be a
success． The sisters published the song in a collection
entitled"Song Stories of the Kindergarten"in 1893.31 years later,after Dr Patty
Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia
University's Teacher College,a gentleman by the name of Robert H.Coleman
published the song,without the sisters'permission．To sdd insult to injury,he
added asecond verse,the familiar"Happy Birthday to You"．
Mr.Coleman's addition of the second verse popularized the song
and,eventually,the sistersoriginal first verse disappeared."Happy Birthday to
You",the one and only birthday song,hadalthgether replaced the sisters'original
title."Good Morning to All"． After Mildred died in
1916,Patty,together with a third sister named Jessica,sprang intoaction and took
Mr.Coleman to court.In court,they proved that they,indeed,owned the
melody.Because the family legally owns the song,it is entitled to royalties from
it,whenever it is sungfor commercial purposes．
单选题Dolphins (海豚) live their whole lives in water. But they are mamma& (哺乳动物J) that live in water. That' s why a dolphin comes to the top of the water so often. A dolphin' s nose isn' t easy to see. It' s just a tiny hole on top of the dolphin' s head. This hole is called a blowhole. A dolphin comes up every half minute or so to breathe. It opens its blowhole and takes in air. Then it closes its blowhole tight and dives into the water again. But a dolphin can stay under the water for six or seven minutes if it has to. It holds its breath. A dolphin hears with two ears. It hears all sorts of small noises under water. It hears small stones rolling. It can hear sounds fish and other dolphins make. A dolphin's ears may be extra small, but its mouth is extra big. It has to be big. It holds almost one hundred teeth. These teeth are all the same shape and size. They are used for catching food, but not for chewing (咀嚼) it. A dolphin opens its big mouth. It seizes (抓住) a fish firmly between its two rows of teeth. Then it swallows (吞下) the whole fish. A dolphin swims very fast. It is said that a dolphin swims faster than anything else in the water. So engineers are studying its skin and shape. They are learning ways to make boats go faster through the water. It is well known that dolphins are very smart. Some scientists say they are smarter than dogs. Others say they are smarter than apes (类人猿).
