Over the next five years, the music 4 never materialized and I nearly stopped. Then, in 2012, I 5 the song to a music-sharing website. I didn’t think anything more would come of it, but just wanted someone to 6 my music.
Later that year, I received an email 7 from Universal Music in Hong Kong, requesting a(n) 8 for the song. I negotiated a contract for $5,000 for the use of the song and 9 straight away.

After coming off stage, I had photographers and journalists 15 to interview me and hundreds of people 16 to have their photograph taken with me. The next morning, I found out my song had gone to number one in the iTunes chart in Hong Kong, 17 Lady Gaga.

Email is a great way of sending an anonymous (匿名的) message. In seconds one can create a new email account that easily masks the true identity of the account holder. When messages are sent with this account, the receiver will have no idea who sent the messages. Sometimes such messages are harmless ads for a variety of products. At times, however, these anonymous emails can be disturbing.
When first faced with an annoying email message, the receiver's first reaction may be to try to find out who sent it. Many people believe that there is no database of email addresses available to them. While this may have been the case during the early days of the Internet, it is no longer true today.
There is now a legitimate (合法的) process available to trace the origin of an email. It's called “Reverse Email Lookup”. One might think that such an important service would be extremely expensive, but the opposite is the case. Reverse email searches, if performed by the proper company, can be very affordable.
Online security is an extremely pressing issue that affects every computer user. If someone sent an email, how did they get the address?Who are they?What are their intentions?A reverse email search can begin to address these important security concerns.
Many people are beginning to take advantage of reverse email searches and statistics show that more and more people are using this service. Again, in today's security?conscious world, many people merely want to know who is sending emails. Viruses and malware (恶意软件) are sent by email, so experienced computer users will not open an email from an unknown source. A reverse email search can help prove that a received email is legitimate.
21.This text mainly tells us about________.
A.the email's advantage of sending messages anonymously
B.a service that helps trace the origin of an email
C.how to advertise a variety of products by email
D.how to keep our personal computer away from viruses
22.From Paragraph 3, we can know that “Reverse Email Lookup” is ________.
A.now only available to the police
B.not so expensive as people think
C.mainly designed for companies
D.not a legitimate service yet
23.“Reverse Email Lookup” can help us to________.
A.figure out what an email is about without opening it
B.send emails without showing our own email address
C.point out our spelling mistakes in an email and correct them
D.identify whether an email we received is safe or not
24.What can we infer from the passage?
A.There is no database of email addresses available to people today.
B.Our computer might be attacked by viruses if we open an anonymous email.
C.Email has more disadvantages than advantages.
D.Sending anonymous emails should be banned.

Taking a picture of your tongue with a mobile phone could soon instantly tell you how healthy you are. Researchers believe the images can reveal important information about a patient's health and even give them early warning of serious illness.
A team at the University of Missouri is developing a system that can analyze pictures using a 5,000?year?old Chinese principle, which is based on the flow and balance of positive and negative energies in the body, and uses the tongue as a key to learning about a person's physical health, or “zheng” according to Chinese medicine.
“Within a year, our goal is to create an application for smartphones that will allow anyone to take a photo of their tongue and learn the status of their zheng,” said Dong Xu, chair of MU's Computer Science Department in the College of Engineering and the co?author of the latest study.
The software analyzes images based on the tongue's color and coating to distinguish between tongues showing signs of “hot” or “cold” zheng. Shades of red and yellow are associated with hot zheng, whereas a white coating on the tongue is a sign of cold zheng.
“Hot and cold zheng doesn't refer directly to body temperature,” said Xu, “rather, it refers to a series of symptoms associated with the state of the body as a whole.”
For the study, 263 gastritis (胃炎) patients and 48 healthy volunteers had their tongues analyzed. The gastritis patients were classified by whether they showed infection by a certain bacteria as well as the intensity of their gastritis symptoms. In addition, most of the gastritis patients had been previously classified with either hot or cold zheng. This allowed the researchers to test the accuracy of the software's analysis.
“Our software is able to classify people based on their zheng status. And as we continue to work on the software we hope to improve its ability,” said another co?author Ye Duan, “eventually everyone will be able to use this tool at home using webcams or smartphone applications, which will allow them to monitor their zheng and get an early warning about possible ailments.”
25.The software mentioned in the passage is based on________.
A.the latest development of smartphones
B.a traditional Chinese medical principle
C.the changes in one's flow and energy
D.symptoms related with the state of the body
26.According to Chinese medicine, zheng refers to________.
A.one's body temperature
B.the physical health of a person
C.the possible disease of a person
D.the color and coating of one's tongue
27.The study led by Dong Xu proves________.
A.the effect of the software
B.the software's great prospect
C.the advancement of smartphones
D.the greatness of Chinese medicine
28.The underlined word “ailments” can be replaced by“________”.
A.analysis B.effects
C.illnesses D.applications
29.It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A.the software still needs improvement
B.the subjects in the study are all gastritis patients
C.the software has been in market for a year
D.the subjects in the study are classified by age
