17、asswords and other valuable information.And now a new kind of worry:someone could seize control of your wireless home network and steal your information from under your nose.Thats the possibility raised by a couple of cyber security researchers from the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium.The p

18、roblem,they say,is a weakness in the very protocol meant to make wi-fi secure.That protocol is called Wi-Fi Protected Access II,WPA2.And WPA2s weakness could allow an attacker within physical range of your wi-fi network to make a copy of that network that they could then control.The researchers call

19、 their approach a key reinstallation attack,or KRACK.Its important to know that KRACK attack remains a possibility for now.The senits realized the threat while investigating wireless security.Theyll present this research on November 1st at the Computer and Communications Security(CCS)conference in D

20、allas and in December at the Black Hat Europe conference in London.In their KRACK assumption,wireless devices would be fooled into connecting to the false network.And the attacker would be able to access all of the information that devices send and receive while connected to that networkeven if that

21、 information has been coded.Android and Linux would be especially easy to attack because of how their encryption keys(密钥)are configured(设定).One measure of protection against such an attack would be to make sure they youve install(安装)the most up-to-date versions of your apps,browsers and wireless rou

22、ter software.Updated software is most likely to include the security patches(补丁)needed to avoid falling victim to a KRACK attack,because chances are that KRACK wont remain simply a proof-of concept for long.24.What are home Internet users concerned about now?A.Their Internet may be disconnected.B.Th

25、Purchase the best-quality apps.B.Keep the proof of KRACK long.D.Install the latest relevant software.C.Ignore the patches of the computers C Working at a desk all day may not be as bad for your health as sitting in front of a television after work.That is a finding of a new study done in the United

26、States.It also suggests that not all forms of sitting are equally bad.Jeanette Garcia works as a researcher at the University of Central Florida in Orlando and she led the study.“Weve been hearing more and more about how siting is the new smoking.she said.She added that other evidence suggests a rel

27、ationship between health problems and time spent sitting.“However,its bee unclear whether all sitting is created equal,suggesting that as long as you reduce any type of sitting,then thats helpful in improving health,”she added.“This study suggests that this may not be the case,and that we should foc

28、us more on leisure time sitting,mainly television viewing time,rather than other sitting,in general.”The study followed close to 3,600 African-American adults.Almost one third of them watched TV for more than four hours a day.A little more than one third of the subjects spent between two and four ho

29、urs a day sitting in front of the TV.The remaining third watched TV for less than two hours a day.Researchers followed the group for an average of 8.4 years.During the study,205 of the subjects died and 129 others suffered a heart attack or stroke(中风)。Compared to people who watched less than two hou

30、rs of television daily,those who spent more than four hours in front of the TV were 49 percent more likely to die or have a heart attack or stroke.But the undesirable health effects of watching TV appeared to be limited to adults who failed to get the recommended amount of weekly exercise.That is ar

31、ound 150 minutes of mild physical activity or 75 minutes of strong exercise every week.The study had some limitations,however.Lin Yang,another researcher,says that sitting in front of the TV might be worse than sitting at a desk because people snack while watching TV.Some people simply stay up too l

32、ate and do not get enough sleep.“Eating treats or lack of sleep could both cause weight gain and increase risk factors for heart disease.These factors could make people more likely to die early,she added.28.What can we learn from Jeanette Garcias study?A.All forms of sitting are equally bad.B.Less s

35、,moved home to the Midwest,graduated from college and landed a secure job in a firm.Matt fought alongside Jeff,left the Amy at the same time and headed home to North Carolina.By the time he was in his 30,though,Matt was unemployed and dependent on government checks.Why did Jeff develop so well while

36、 Matt lost his civilian footing?The answer,according to Daniel M.Gade,a retired office,and Daniel Huang,a former Wall Street Journal reporter,is the Department of Veterans Affairs(VA)in particular,its strong disability system.In their convincing description,the authors show in detail how a well-inte

37、nded system can unintentionally lead fragile veterans,step by step,away from the worlds of work and community.The path typically starts just before separation from the service.Soldiers meet with VA representatives who emphasize opportunities to collect disability compensation(补偿).Jeff,for example,wa

38、nted to“get out and get on”with his life,while Matt took the VA agents advice“and applied for every condition he could think of.”Mats career plan had been to attain an ideal job in law enforcement(执行),but the field was highly competitive.So he took a job with his dads construction company.But the ph

39、ysical damage of the job was too much for his knees and back.Deeply depressed,now out of work and living in his parents home,Matt tried college but felt unbearable.Meanwhile,anxious about his future,he kept applying for higher disability ratingsreceiving,eventually,a monthly tax-free check over$3,00

40、0.For many partially or fully disabled veterans,PTSD(创伤应急障碍)is their primary diagnosis(诊断).The condition,can be very weak,but it is also treatable.A psychologist told the authors that,when it comes to PTSD,the agency“has been doing harm to millions of veterans by telling them that theyre disabled.”I

41、n Matts case,remarkably,even after the VA determined him to be“housebound,”it didnt mandate(强制执行)treatment.“The natural athlete who had conquered his fear of heights to excel as an airborne(空降的)soldier,the authors write,had become a disabled man one year later.”The VAs record on treatment in general

42、 looks poor:More veterans today,relative to their overall numbers,are compensated for disabilities than ever before in the VAs history.Under 0.1%of the veterans who receive disability benefits for mental disorders have their benefits reduced over time because their condition has improved.31.Whats th

43、e purpose of Paragraph 1?A.To lead to the topic.B.To give examples.C.To clarify opinions.D.To introduce two veterans.32.Why did Matt fall into the difficult situation according to Daniel M.Gade and Daniel Huang?A.He depended too much on VA.B.He didnt fight as bravely as Jeff.C.He didnt benefit from

44、the system.D.He was unwilling to work in a firm.33.What does the underlined expression probably mean in Paragraph 3?A.To follow the VA Agents advice.B.To stay away from work and community.C.To leave the army and get along well with other veterans.D.To earn his own living rather than apply for compen

45、sation.34.What attitude did Matt take facing his present situation?A.Positive.B.Negative.C.Optimistic.D.Cautious.35.Why did the airborne soldier become a disabled man?A.He failed to conquer his fear.B.The AV made the false diagnosis.C.He didnt get enough compensation.D.The VA didnt provide proper se

46、rvice.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Advantages of Solar Power As the name suggests,solar power makes the most of the sunlight and is put to good use for its users.Despite some disadvantages,the advantages of it are so great that they cannot be ignored.In sh

47、ort,solar electricity system is an excellent addition to other conventional sources of energy.36 A solar panel system,when coupled to your electric function,can sufficiently reduce or even cancel your electric bill,yet providing you with the option of using traditional power whenever needed.37 It is

48、 simple to operate as well and this is another advantage.Just ensure that you have the right technology in terms of space use and performance.But perhaps the most widely well-known advantage of solar power is that this is green energy.38 This is a great advantage in todays world where we need to be

49、concerned about the high levels of pollution and global warming.Let us all take some responsibility and do something that can clean up our atmosphere to some extent at least.So while on the one hand solar power is clean,on the other hand,it can also greatly reduce the electricity bill of the users.3

50、9 So if you are thinking in terms of installing a solar electric system in your home or commercial property,you should go ahead and do it by all means.And the best news is that the solar power system can be built in your house itself._ 40 That is why you need a brochure that can tell you all about t
