Georgina, known as Georgie, will turn 16 later this week and organized the party with two friends. Her mother said they had originally looked at the option of booking a nightclub, but decided the £1,000 fee was too steep. She said, “It seemed that realistically the only place Georgina could have her party was at home.”
Georgie Hobday's parents had grown-ups to be in charge, a proper guest list, and a ban on alcohol. So they thought they had her 16th birthday party under control. Unfortunately, it was advertised on Facebook.
Around 400 uninvited guests stormed into the family's townhouse in Brighton on Saturday and gatecrashed(擅自参加) the event. They violently forced their way past the adults on duty, breaking light bulbs, knocking over plants and tearing up the garden. Twelve police cars had to be called in to send them on their way. The troublemakers were the Facebook Republican Army, a group who look for teenage parties to crash through social networking sites.
Yesterday Georgie's mother, Sylvia Meli, said to the newspaper reporter, “It was an absolute horror show. The garden has been ruined and the grass is just mud. I'll never have a party for my daughter here again. I think Facebook is a major cause, as well as texting.”
A gatecrasher said this is just the kind of party they like to gatecrash. They're in their late teens and early 20s and they are quite intimidating. When they turn up at a teenage party they know that no one will dare to say anything to them so they can do what they want. Once they've found a party they put the word out through texts and news spreads fast.
A Sussex police spokesman said, “There was a sea of people, and it was difficult to move, which was a major safety problem that required a lot of police time and resources.” Mrs Meli added, “I do understand at that age they have nowhere to go because they couldn't go to clubs. But invading(蜂拥而入) someone else's party and wasting police time and money is not the answer.”
语篇导读 即将16岁的Georgie在家里举办生日聚会,但“脸书共和军”不请自来,不仅破坏了她的生日聚会,而且把她家弄得乱七八糟。
1.What made Georgie's parents give up holding the party at a nightclub?
A.The high cost. B.The limited time.

A.Ambitious. B.Frightening.

词 数 346 难度
Imagine you're standing in line to buy a snack at a store.You step up to the counter and the cashier scans your food.Next, you have to pay.But instead of scanning a QR code with your smartphone, you just hold out your hand so the cashier can scan your fingerprint. Or, a camera scans your face, your eyes or even your ears.
Now, this type of technology might not be far away.As technology companies move away from the traditional password, biometric(生物特征识别的) security, which includes fingerprint, face and voice ID, is becoming increasingly popular.
In 2013, Apple introduced the iPhone 5s, one of the first smartphones with a fingerprint scanner.Since then, using one's fingerprint to unlock a phone and make mobile payments has become commonplace, bringing convenience to our lives.And since 2016, Samsung has featured eye-scanning technology in its top smartphones, while Apple's new iPhone X can even scan a user's face.But despite its popularity, experts warn that biometrics might not be as secure as we imagine. “Biometrics is ideally good in practice, not so much,” said John Michener, a biometrics expert.
When introducing the new iPhone's face ID feature, Phil Schiller, Apple's senior vice-president, said, “The chance that a random person in the population could look at your iPhone X and unlock it with his or her face is about one in a million.” But it's already been done.In a video posted on a community website Reddit, two brothers showed how they were each able to unlock the same iPhone X using their own face.And they aren't even twins.
“We may expect too much from biometrics,” Anil Jain, a computer science professor at Michigan State University, told CBS News. “No security systems are perfect.”
Earlier last year, Jain found a way to trick biometric security.Using a printed copy of a thumbprint, she was able to unlock a dead person's smartphone for the police, according to a tech website Splinter.“It's good to see biometrics being used more,” Jain told CBS News, “because it adds another factor for security.But using multiple security measures is the best defense.”
语篇导读 本文介绍了生物特征识别技术的最新发展情况,以及它们存在的安全问题。
5.Which is the latest identification technology in a smartphone according to the passage?
A.Face scanning. B.Eye scanning.
C.QR code scanning. D.Fingerprint scanning.
解析 A 细节理解题。根据第一、二段可知,生物特征识别技术比二维码更先进;再根据第三段可知,智能手机生物识别技术——指纹扫描、眼部扫描、面部扫描依次出现,因此面部扫描技术是智能手机的最新识别技术,故选A项。
6.What is a major problem of the iPhone X's face ID system?
A.It takes too long to unlock the phone.
B.It often fails to recognize its owner's face.
C.Face data can be used for other purposes.
D.Different faces can be used to unlock the same phone.
解析 D 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中所举的例子In a video…they aren't even twins可知,人脸识别系统的一个主要问题是不同的脸可以解锁同一部手机,故选D项。
7.What is Anil Jain's opinion about biometric security?
A.It is as secure as traditional measures.
B.It is perfect without much improvement.
C.It has caused much trouble for the police.
D.It should be used with other security measures.
解析 D 观点态度题。根据倒数第二段及最后一段最后一句可知,Anil Jain认为没有哪项安全技术是完美的,生物特征识别技术应与其他安全措施一起使用,故选D项。
8.What does the author intend to tell us in this passage?
A.The popularity of biometrics.
B.Security problems of biometrics.
C.Various problems with biometrics.
D.Great changes caused by biometrics.
解析 B 写作意图题。作者首先介绍了当前几种先进的生物特征识别技术,然后通过举例说明人脸识别技术存在的问题,并建议多种安全措施一起使用。由此可知,作者是想告诉读者生物特征识别技术存在的安全问题,故选B项。

词 数 213 难度
Denmark is famous for being the “happiest country in the world.” __1__?Here are three reasons why Danes are happier than you.
★ Danes Trust Each Other
__2__. Many Danes don't lock their cars, doors or front doors. They've got used to delivery men just appearing in their front halls with a package.
★ The Danish Welfare State Works
Danes pay some of the highest income tax rates in the world. __3__. They get free health care, free college education(students are actually paid $900 a month), highly subsidised(补贴的) child care and generous unemployment benefits. So Danes consider paying taxes as investing in their society. They are purchasing quality of life.
★ __4__
“Work-life balance” in Denmark isn't just an HR advertisement, it's a way of life. Danish workers work at 33 hours a week on average. As for parental leave, Denmark again has one of the most generous policies in the world. The government requires all employers to offer up to 52 weeks of leave—for either mother or father. __5__.
For all of the time off that Danish workers take, economic productivity doesn't seem to suffer. The idea is that you work hard, get the work done and then go home. Danes don't waste time at the office on Facebook.
A.Danes Live a Green and Healthy life
B.Danes Work less and Stay with Families More
C.The Danish sense of trust is deep in their daily life
D.Trust isn't a natural quality, but is taught in schools
E.So why exactly are Danes winning the happiness race
F.But in exchange, every Dane benefits from the welfare system
G.Meanwhile, the state provides financial support for up to 32 weeks
语篇导读 本文解释了丹麦人比其他国家的人幸福感更强的原因。
1.解析 E 顺承关系。根据空后的问号可知,空处应填问句,只有E项符合;E项中的why与空后一句中的reasons对应,衔接紧密,故选E项。
2.解析 C 总分关系。本段核心词为trust,C、D两项符合;根据空后下文可知,讲的是日常生活中的信任,D项中的in schools与下文无关,故选C项。
3.解析 F 转折关系。本段关键词welfare。空处前后内容为转折关系;F项中But表示转折,并有welfare呼应标题,故选F项。
4.解析 B 总分关系。空处为小标题,下文主要讲丹麦人在工作与家庭之间的时间分配,故选B项。
5.解析 G 递进关系。空前几句讲丹麦的产假政策,G项(同时,政府提供长达32周的经济资助)紧承上文,故选G项。

Dear Gabriela,
Thanks for your last letter. I'm glad that you're interested in reading books ① English. I've just finished ② Pride and Prejudice.
The story is very old-fashioned, ③ it's very good. It's a very romantic story. In the beginning the main ④ have a very bad ⑤ impression on each other. However, when ⑥ know each other better—well, I'll let you to ⑦ read the book to find that out!
The language is not difficult. I'm sure you will like ⑧ character, Elizabeth Bennet. She ⑨ just like you! Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy the book. Write back soon and tell me ⑩ you get on.
Maria
① 解析 表示“用某种语言”用介词in。
② 解析 finish后接动词作宾语时,用动名词形式。
③ 解析 此处表示“这个故事很老但是很好”,前后为转折关系,故用but连接。
④ 解析 根据后面的have以及each other可知此处应用名词复数形式。
⑤ 解析 根据句子结构可知,此处作定语,修饰名词impression,故用形容词。
⑥ 解析 此处指代小说中的主角们,应用they。
⑦ 解析 let后用不带to的不定式作宾语补足语。
⑧ 解析 此处特指小说中的人物Elizabeth Bennet,故用定冠词the。
⑨ 解析 句意:她十分像你!“像某人”要用be like sb。
⑩ 解析 此处指看小说进展如何,应用副词how。
