三.阅读理解
A
Some people might think that online privacy (隐私) is a well, private matter. If you don’t want your information getting out online, don’t put it on social media. Simple, right
But keeping your information private isn’t just about your own choices. It’s about your friends’ choices, too. Results from a study show that, with the development of all kinds of social media, people may need to stop and think about just how much they control their personal information, and where the boundaries of their privacy are.
When someone joins a social network, the first order of business is, of course, to find friends. To help the users to find their friends, many apps offer to import the contact list (导入联系人清单) from someone’s phone or e-mail or Facebook, to find matches with people already in the network. “Sharing those contact lists m seems harmless,” says David Garcia, a computational social scientist at the Complexity Science Hub Vienna in Austria. “People giving contact lists aren’t doing anything wrong,” he says, “You are their friend. You give them the e-mail address and phone number,” Most of the time, you probably want to stay in touch with the person, possibly even via the social media site.
But the social network then has that information—whether or not the owner of it wants it to be shared.
Social platforms’ ability to collect information into what are called shadow profiles first came to light with a Facebook bug in 2013. The bug accidentally shared the e mail addresses and phone numbers of some 6 billion users with all of their friends, even when the information was public.
Facebook immediately corrected the mistakes. But later, some users noticed that the phone numbers on their Facebook profiles had still been filled in—even though they had not given Facebook their digits. Instead, Facebook had collected the numbers from the contact lists innocently provided by their friends, and filled in the missing information for them. A shadow profile had become reality.
It’s no surprise that a social platform could take names, e mail addresses and phone numbers and match them up with other people on the same platform. But Garcia wondered if these shadow profiles could be extended to people not on the social platform at all.
He turned to a social network called Friendster which was closed up in 2015. Friendster was launched in 2002. In 2008, the social site attracted more than 115 million users. But by 2009 people began to jump ship for other sites, and finally Friendster closed for good. However, by using the, Internet Archive—a nonprofit library, Garcia still found lots of users’ information about Friendster.
“You are not in full control of your privacy,” he concludes. If your friend is on a social platform, so are you. And you don’t have a choice in the matter. Garcia published his findings on August 4 in Science Advance.
( )1. The apps help; us to find friends in the following ways EXCEPT ______ .
A. through phone numbers B. through e mail C. through Facebook D. through ID number
( )2. What can you know about the Facebook bug in 2013
A. The bug shared all the personal information of Facebook users to their friends.
B. All the Facebook users find their phone numbers on their Facebook profiles.
C. Few people 1 knew Facebook would collect information into shadow profiles.
D. Facebook refused to correct the bug.
( )3. Why did Garcia turn to study Friendster
A. Because he showed a great interest in Friendster.
B. Because Friendster is very popular among young people.
C. Because he wanted to find whether shadow profiles affected people not on the social platform.
D. Because his science center asked him to do study about that.
( )4. What can we infer from the passage
A. With some media, we don’t need to make friends in the real world.
B. You can keep your personal information as long as you don’t use social media.
C. Facebook is widely used around the whole world.
D. Even if you are not on a social platform, your information may still be shared.
( )5. Which can be the best title of the passage
A. How to protect your personal information. B. Respect online privacy.
C. Social media is not safe. D. Online privacy stays just in your imagination.
B
For his eleventh birthday, Lin was given a gift that would shape his life, On that day his father took him to the Children’s Activity Centre and said he could choose any course that interested him. There was just one requirement; Lin would have to promise to study it for at least one year.
To that point Lin had had many hobbies, but none kept his interest for more than a week or two. His mum once gave him a bag of stamps to encourage stamp collecting. That hobby lasted a week. Then his father got him some paints hoping that Lin’s artistic side would shine through. Those paints were now under his bed, still unopened. This time Lin’s parents would let him decide.
Lin’s eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed all the courses on offer. He stopped at “Photography”. He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera. Although Lin’s family weren’t poor, they weren’t rich either, and a camera cost a lot of money. He continued looking.
The next course to catch his eye was “Language Art”. He didn’t even know what that meant. His father explained that it taught people how to make public speeches. Lin, a shy boy, could think of nothing worse.
Then he saw it. “Cooking” sounded like something he’d like to do. It was inexpensive and convenient. It could be done alone and it was also creative.
Based on Lin’s hobby history, his dad had doubts, but he agreed. Much to his parents’ surprise, Lin kept his promise. He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday, and practised at home, making delicious meals for his family. Everyone looked forward to birthdays, when they could eat his cakes. Lin got great satisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others.
The months turned to years but his hobby never changed again.
Now Lin is an adult and runs a successful restaurant. When customers say they enjoy his meal, he still gets the same pleasure he did as a child, and remembers the special gift he received all those years ago.
( ) 1. Why didn’t Lin choose to study photography
A. Because it was too expensive. B. Because he had no interest in it.
C. Because he was not very creative. D. Because it was not offered that term.
( ) 2. The underlined expression “catch his eye” in Paragraph 4 means ______ .
A. make him excited B. cause him surprise C. get his attention D. help him see clearly
( ) 3. Which of the following best describes Lin’s interest in cooking
A. It only lasted for a short time. B. It seemed to match his character.
C. It was forced on him by his parents. D. It developed slowly over many months.
( ) 4. Why did the father have doubts about Lin’s choice of cooking
A. Because Lin wasn’t good at cooking. B. Because cooking wasn’t very convenient.
C. Because he didn’t think Lin would continue. D. Because cooking wasn’t a good hobby for a boy.
( ) 5. What’s the best title for the passage
A. A Strict Father B. A Changeable Boy C. The Fun of Cooking D. The Birthday Gift

One possible version:
Research has shown that music has an important effect on one’s moods. So people use different kinds of music to change moods.
If you feel stressed and worry a lot, you can listen to pop music and you will feel relaxed. Some students are crazy about computer games and feel overexcited, so they can listen to country music and they will feel calm and peaceful. Some people feel tired and sleepy, so they can listen to rock music. After listening, they will feel excited. Sometimes I feel lonely and sad. I often listen to light music. It makes me feel happy again.
