单选题{{B}}Text 3{{/B}} Wise compromise is one of the basic principles and virtues of the British. If a continental greengrocer asks 14 shillings ( or crowns, or francs) for a bunch of radishes, and his customer offers 2, and finally they strike a bargain agreeing on 6 shillings, this is just the low continental habit of bargaining; on the other hand if the British dock-workers or any other workers claim a rise of 4 shillings per day, and the employers first flatly refuse even a penny, but after a six weeks' strike they agree to a rise of 2 shillings a day -- that is yet another proof of the British genius for compromise. Bargaining is a repulsive habit; compromise is one of the highest human virtues -- the difference between the two being that the first is practiced on the Continent, the latter in Great Britain. The genius for compromise has another aspect, too. It has a tendency to unite together everything which is bad. English club life, for instance, unites the liabilities of social life with the boredom of solitude. An average English house combines all the curses of civilization with the ups and downs of life in the open. It's all right to have windows, but you must not have double windows because double would indeed stop the wind from blowing right into the room, and after all, you must be fair and give the wind a chance. It is a right to have central heating in an English home, except in the bathroom, because that is the only place where you are naked and wet at the same time, {{U}}and you must give British germs a fair chance{{/U}}. The open fire is an accepted, indeed a traditional institution. You sit in front of it and your face is hot whilst your back is cold. It is a fair compromise between two extremes and settles the problems of how to burn and catch cold at the same time. English spelling is a compromise between documentary expressions and an elaborate code-system; spending 3 hours in a queue in front of a cinema is a compromise between entertainment and asceticism; the English weather is a fair compromise between rain and fog; to employ an English charwoman is a compromise between having a dirty house Or cleaning it yourself; Yorkshire pudding is a compromise between a pudding and the country of Yorkshire.

单选题{{B}}Text 2{{/B}} In many businesses, computers have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, flexible, and do not make mistakes. As one hanker said, "Unlike humans, computers never have a bad day." And they are honest. Many banks advertise that their transactions are "untouched by human hands" and therefore safe from human temptation. Obviously, computers have no reason to steal money. But they also have no conscience, and the growing number of computer crimes shows they can be used to steal. Computer criminals don't use guns. And even they arc caught, it is hard to punish them because there are no witnesses and often no evidence. A computer cannot remember who used it: it simply does what it is told. The head teller at a New York City Bank used a computer to steal more than one and a half billion dollars in just four years. No one noticed this theft because he moved the money from one account to another. Each time a customer he had robbed questioned the balance in his account, the teller claimed a computer error, then replaced the missing money from someone else's account. This man was caught only because he was a gambler. When the police broke up an illegal gambling operation, his name was in the records. Some employees use the computer's power to get revenge on employers they consider unfair. Recently, a large insurance company fired its computer-tape librarian for reasons that involved her personal rather than her professional life. She was given thirty days' notice. In those thirty days, she erased all the company's computerized records. Most computer criminals have been minor employees. Now police wonder if this is "the tip of the iceberg". As one official says, "I have the feeling that there is more crime ont there than we are catching. What we are seeing now is all so poorly done. I wonder what the real experts are doing—the ones who really know how a computer works."

单选题My family and I recently returned from a trip to Alaska, a place that combines supernatural beauty with a breathtaking amount of bear risks. I''ll start with some facts at a glance: 　　WHERE ALASKA IS: Way the hell far from you. Beyond Mars. 　　HOW YOU GET THERE: You sit in a variety of airplanes for most of your adult life. 　　WHAT THEY HAVE THERE THAT WILL TRY TO KILL YOU: Bears. 　　I am quite serious about this. Although Alaska is now an official United States with modem conveniences such as rental cars and frozen yogurt, it also contains a large number of admitted bears, striding freely about the landscape, and nobody seems to be the least bit alarmed about this. In fact, the Alaskans seem to be proud of it. You walk into a hotel or department store, and the first thing you see is a glass case containing a stuffed bear the size of a real one. Our hotel had two of these. It was what we travel writers call "a two-bear hotel". Both bears were standing on their hind legs and striking a pose that said: "Welcome to Alaska! I''m going to tear your arms off!" 　　This struck me as an odd concept, greeting visitors with a showcase containing a major local hazard. It''s as if an anti-drug organization went around setting up glass display cases containing stuffed drug smugglers, with little plaques stating how much they weighed and where they were taken. 　　Anyway, we decided the best way to deal with our fear of bears was to become well informed about them, so we bought a book, Alaska Bear Tales. Here are some of the chapter titles, which I am not making up. 　　"They''ll Attack Without Warning" 　　 "They''ll Really Attack You" 　　"They Will Kill" 　　"Come Quick ! I''m Being Eaten by a Bear !" 　　"They Can Be Funny" 　　Ha ha ! I bet they can. I bet Mr. and Mrs. Bear and a bundle of hilarity as they fight playfully over the remaining portion of a former tourist plumped up by airline food. But just the same, I'' m glad that the only actual, nonstuffed, practicing bears that we saw were in the zoo.
