It began as a game: High school and college students studying computer technology figured out they could use personal computers to break into telephone company computers and make free, long-distance telephone calls. These young computer talents soon gained the name "hackers".

Police arrested a few hackers, but many went on to even more complex hacking. One of them was arrested for making illegal telephone calls and later he used a phone to change a police officer's credit records to get back at the officer for arresting him. He also used a computer to change his college records to give himself better grades.

As hackers gained experience, they began invading computers at banks, airlines and other businesses. In one case a hacker instructed an airline' s computer to give him free airplane tickets.

The U.S. government is worried that hackers may break into its networks of defense computers. The government's secrets are easily attacked because thousands of government computers are connected by telephone lines that hackers can get into.

In November 1988, a college student entered a U.S. Defense Department computer network called Arpanet. The hacker injected a computer program that made copies of itself throughout Arpanet. Some hackers use viruses to destroy all the data in a computer. But in this case, government officials shut down the network before the program reached every computer in the system. Shutting down the system angered many researchers who were using the computers. The hacker turned himself in to the police and he was charged with a crime.

The incident put the spotlight on computer hacking in the United States. Many companies have hired experts to protect their computers from hackers, and many computer experts now advise companies on how to protect their computers.

The U.S. government believes foreign governments have hired hackers to try to break into top-secret defense computers.

Experts disagree over whether a computer network can ever be safe from hacking. But in the future, some of the most outstanding minds in the U.S. will be working to frustrate the attempts of computer hackers.

1.What did the first hackers do?

A.They broke into government computers. B.They destroyed airplane ticket systems.

C.They played computer games. D.They made free phone calls.

2.Why can U.S. government computers be easily hacked into?

A.They have no defense systems. B.They are connected by telephone lines.

C.They are partly accessible to the public. D.They lack complex processing programs.

3.What happened to the government computers in November 1988?

A.They lost all of the important data.

B.They were shut down by researchers.

C.They were invaded by a college student.

D.They got totally ruined by a computer program.

4.What did companies decide to do to protect their computer systems?

A.Employ computer talents. B.Build secret defense systems.

C.Ask the government for help. D.Collect and analyze the data of hackers.

As a public school superintendent(督导), I believe the best way to prepare students for colleges and careers is to focus on providing instructional programs and opportunities that help them become good thinkers. To do this, teachers and actually everyone else in a community, should play a role as a “cognitive coach” to students, helping develop good thinkers among our youth.

The best way for you to become a cognitive coach is to seek out and engage school children and adolescents in meaningful conversations. The objective here is to get kids talking about what they think, how they feel, and what they believe whenever and wherever you may find them. It may be in a classroom. It may be at the grocery store. It may be at a basketball game. It doesn’t matter where as long as you engage students in a topical conversation and, hopefully, even a debate. Mainly, you want to encourage students to voice their opinion about things. Get them to take a position on “this thing, or that thing,” and ask them to support their position with evidence. Curiously enough, the simple process of engaging students in real life conversations and debates will serve to strengthen what they have learned in the classroom, and help them create their own knowledge about a subject or a topic.

Learning indicates that a student has been exposed to material, understands the material, and can recall the information. Knowledge, on the other hand, goes beyond recall and includes information processing, application to other situations, consideration of meaning, and contrasting with other concepts. Naturally, the topic of conversation you engage in with one of your learners will differ from student to student, and in the level of complexity based on child’s age and developmental level. Even a kindergartener has an opinion about things that are going on in his or her life. Engaging in conversation with any members of your learning community in ways that get at what they have learned and what they know will help them develop higher order reasoning skills.

A student’s synthetic thinking(综合思维) process occurs when a respected adult asks a question, particularly a question that requires reflection. I think all adults in a community have a responsibility to help children with this process, with the goal of producing independent thinkers.

1.According to writer, what most helps develop students’ thinking?

A. Enlarging one’s knowledge.

B. Learning from respected adults.

C. Attending instructional programs.

D. Making evidence-based arguments.

2.Which is the best question raised by a cognitive coach?

A. What have you learnt recently?

B. Will you pay by the credit card?

C. Where are you going this weekend?

D. How do you like this basketball team?

3.The writer mentions a kindergartener in Paragraph 3 in order to _____.

A. emphasize the importance of being a good thinker

B. suggest that education should start at an early age

C. prove that even children have their own ways of thinking

D. explain the necessity of choosing proper conversation topics

4.What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To state an education idea.

B. To assess a teaching strategy.

C. To introduce a learning method.

D. To compare different education methods.

Is there clear boundary between science and the liberal arts as a major for college students?　 The question of whether our government should promote science and technology or the liberal arts in higher education is not an either / or proposition (命题), although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM (science, technology, engineering, maths) -related fields can make it seem that way.

The latest congressional report acknowledges the critical importance of technical training, but also stresses that the study of the humanities (人文学科) and social sciences must remain central elements of America’s educational system at all levels. Both are critical to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic society, become innovative (创新的) leaders, and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the reflection on the　 great ideas of mankind over time provides.

Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates’ job prospects (前景) as technological advances and changes in domestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce wages and cut jobs. Under this circumstances, it’s natural to look for what may appear to be the most “practical” way out of the problem. “Major in a subject designed to get you a job” seems the obvious answer to some, though this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as “soft” often, in fact, lead to employment and success in the long run. Indeed, according to surveys, employers have expressed a preference for students who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well, think critically, research creatively, and communicate easily.

Moreover, students should be prepared not just for their first job, but for their 4th and 5th jobs, as there is little reason to doubt that people entering the workforce today will be called upon to play many different roles over the course of their careers. The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose educations have prepared them to be flexible. The ability to draw upon every available tool and insight - picked up from science, arts, and technology - to solve the problems of the future, and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves, will be helpful to them and the　 United States.

1.What does the latest congressional report suggest?

A. Higher education should be adjusted to the practical needs of society.

B. The liberal arts in higher education help enrich students’ spiritual life.

C. STEM-related subjects help students find jobs in the information society.

D. The humanities and STEM subjects should be given equal importance.

2.What does the author say about the so called soft subjects?

A. They are essential to students’ healthy growth.

B. They improve students’ communication skills.

C. They broaden students’ range of interests.

D. They benefit students in their future life.

3.What is the main concern of students when they choose a major?

A. The academic value of the courses.

B. Their interest in relevant subjects.

C. Their chances of getting a good job.

D. The quality of education to receive.

4.What advice does the author give to college students?

A. Try to take a variety of practical courses.

B. Prepare themselves for different job options.

C. Adopt a flexible approach to solving problems.

D. Seize opportunities to tap their potential.
