27、列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。A Someday a stranger will read your email without your permission or scan the websites youve visited. Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits. In fact, it
28、s likely some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a policeman or a criminal. Whoever it is,they will see you in a way you never intended to be seenthe 21st century equal to being caught nake
29、dPsychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, though its important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. Actually few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are,where you are and
30、what you like. In some cases,a simple Google search can reveal what you think. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.The key question is: Does that matter? For many Americans, the answer apparently is “no”.When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy
31、, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found a majority of people are pessimistic about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is “slipping away, and that bothers me”But people say one thing and do another. Only a small part of Americans change any be
32、haviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths to avoid using the EZPass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquits has run a series of tests that reveal people will subm
33、it personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50centsoff coupon(优待券).But privacy does matter at least sometimes. Its like health:when you have it,you dont notice it. Only when its gone do you wish youd done more to protect it.56. From Paragraph 2,we can in
34、fer_.A. criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technologyB. people tend to be more frank with each other in the information ageC. in the 21st century people try every means to look into others secretsD. peoples personal information is easily accessed without their knowledge57.

36、 is like health in that_.A. its importance is rarely understood B. it is something that can easily be lostC. people will make every effort to keep it D. people dont treasure it until they lose itB Unlike chemists and physicists, who usually do their experiments using machines, biologists and medical
37、 researchers have to use living things like rats. But there are three Nobel prize-winning scientists who actually chose to experiment on themselves all in the name of science, reported The Telegraph. Werner Forssmann (Nobel prize winner in 1956) Forssmann was a German scientist. He studied how to pu
38、t a pipe inside the heart to measure the pressure inside and decide whether a patient needs surgery (手术). Experiments had been done on horses before, so he wanted to try with human patients. But it was not permitted because the experiment was considered too dangerous. Not giving up, Forssmann decide
39、d to experiment on himself. He anaesthetized (麻醉) his own arm and made a cut, putting the pipe 30 centimeters into his vein (血管). He then climbed two floors to the X-ray room before pushing the pipe all the way into his heart. Barry Marshall (Nobel prize winner in 2005) Most doctors in the mid-20th
40、century believed that gastritis was down to stress, spicy food or an unusually large amount of stomach acid (胃酸). But in 1979 an Australian scientist named Robin Warren found that the disease might be related to a bacteria (细菌) called Helicobacter pylori. So he teamed up with his colleague, Barry Ma
41、rshall, to continue the study. When their request to experiment on patients was denied, Marshall bravely drank some of the bacteria. Five days later, he lost his appetite and soon was vomiting (呕吐) each morning he indeed had gastritis. Ralph Steinman (Nobel prize winner in 2011) This Canadian scient
42、ist discovered a new type of immune system cell (免疫细胞) called the dendritic cell. He believed that it had the ability to fight against cancer. Steinman knew he couldnt yet use his method to treat patients. So in 2007, when doctors told him that he had cancer and that it was unlikely for him to live
43、longer than a year, he saw an opportunity. With the help of his colleagues, he gave himself three different vaccines (疫苗) based on his research and a total of eight experimental therapies (疗法). Even though Steinman eventually died from his cancer, he lived four and a half years, much longer than doc
