1.What is identity theft? Identity theft occurs when someone steals your personal information to take over your credit accounts,open new ones,access bank accounts,or commit many other crimes in your name and at your expense.When it strikes,the effects can be disastrous.What's more,because it frequently involves no physical theft,identity theft may not be noticed by its victims until significant damage has already been done-often several months and thousands of pounds later.It's estimated that more than 100,000 people are affected by identity theft in the UK each year,costing the British economy over £1.3 billion annually.
How does it happen?
These are some of the ways crooks get hold of your personal information:
?Fake emails
You may receive an email seemingly from,say,your bank requesting that you follow a link and key information into a website that looks very similar to your bank's own site but is in fact a fake.
?Pretext phone calls
A crook pretending to be an official from,for example,your bank may phone up asking you to give personal or account details as a security check.
?Dishonest people
Sometimes sales assistants,unknown(不知情的)to you,swipe your card through a machine which records its details.At the workplace,a fellow employee can use your personal details fraudulently.
How can you protect yourself?
Be careful who you give your personal details to,and tear up documents like credit-card slips before you throw them away.Don't make this serious crime easy for crooks!
(1)What do we know about identity theft according to the passage?
A.It is a frequent physical theft.
B.It is only committed by strangers.
C.It is easy to be noticed by victims.
D.It is costly to individuals and society.
(2)Identity theft may happen when

2.Real financial security and freedom is not in our job but in our passion.It's easy to define and evaluate a man by his pursuit.Joseph Campbell once said, "Follow your dream and the universe will open doors where there are only walls."
In life,we'll always be found doing any of these two things:either making a living or making a difference.Pensions (養老金)and salaries stop many from pursuing excellence while passion unlocks hidden potentials that equip us for challenges and opportunities.A job helps us make a living while passion enables us to make a difference.
I want to sincerely help to adjust and clarify the misguided belief among workers that a job is a means of livelihood.Rather,it should be a means to fuel our passion.The earlier you realize this basic truth of life,the more clearly you'll be able to position yourself in living a life of impact and value.
The success of Kentucky Fried Chicken(KFC)shows how meaningful it is to pursue your passion instead of your pension.Its founder,Colonel Harland Sanders,didn't realize this until he was given his first social security check of 105 dollars.But he decided that there surely was something to do for himself and other people instead of living on that small pension.He was determined to engage himself in what brought him impact and value.Drawing inspiration from his mother's special recipe for fried chicken,he invented "finger-licking" seasoning with eleven spices and herbs.Despite much rejection,he managed to round up some investors and promote company's rapid expansion to more than 6,000 locations.Sanders' life pointed towards two facts about making a difference:one,there is no age that is too old to make a difference;two,there is nothing too small or insignificant to make a difference with,as long as it is your passion.
(1)How does the author support his argument in paragraph 2?
A.By listing examples.
B.By including a quote.
C.By showing contrast.
D.By sharing his experience.
(2)How did Sanders probably feel when offered his first social security check?
A.Deeply moved.
B.Internally motivated
C.Greatly relieved.
D.Pleasantly surprised
(3)What does the author intend to do ?
A.Give career guidance.
B.Advise us to pursue our passion.
C.Persuade us to get a well-paid job.
D.Secure our position.
(4)What is the best title for this text?
A.Following Your Dreams
B.Working for Pension
C.To Work or not to Work?
D.Passion or Pension?組卷:0引用:1難度:0.5 -
3.On July 14,2017,Maryam Mirzakhani,Stanford professor of mathematics and the first female winner of the Fields Medal in Mathematics,died at the age of 40.
The news was especially hard-hitting for a generation of younger academics who have always held Maryam as a role model whose example is helping redefine women's status in science and especially mathematics.What was fun was that Maryam always tried to avoid the media's spotlight.Her modesty (謙虛) and simplicity despite being the first woman to gain such high status in the world of mathematics—winning what's often called the "Nobel Prize of math"—stood out to those who knew her.
Maryam originally wanted to be a writer,a passion of hers that never faded away even during her postgraduate studies.However,she found an even greater joy in how rewarding it felt to solve mathematical problems.As a student,she was the first female member of Iran's national team to participate in the International Math Olympiad (IMO),and she won two gold medals in two years—still a record.
She received her bachelor's degree in Iran and later studied at Harvard.In 2014,Maryam was recognized with the Fields Medal,the highest-ranking award in mathematics.Her work focused on curved surfaces like spheres (球體).Her achievements have applications in other scientific fields including engineering and material science.Unfortunately,at that time she was already tackling the breast cancer.
Maryam's legend(傳奇)may continue to grow after her early death.Still only 20 percent of full-time math teachers at U.S.universities are women.The example of a woman who rose to the top of this still very male field may help inspire math's next generation.
In the same way people think of Marie Curie or Jane Goodall as scientific pioneers,Maryam Mirzakhani will go down in history as a trailblazer as well as a mathematical genius.
(1)What makes Maryam internationally recognized?
A.Her unfading passion for writing.
B.Fighting against sexual discrimination.
C.Coming under the media's spotlight frequently.
D.Being the first female Fields Medal winner.
(2)What's Maryam's attitude towards fame?
A.Resistant.
B.Realistic.
C.Enthusiastic.
D.Doubtful.
(3)What can we know about Maryam?
A.She got her bachelor's degree at Harvard.
B.She won gold medals for Iran in IMO.
C.She applied mathematics to material science.
D.She instructed some female students to reach the top.
(4)What does the underlined word "trailblazer" mean in the last paragraph?
A.Talent.
B.Model.
C.Pioneer.
D.Follower.組卷:2引用:5難度:0.5

Dear David,
I'm so sorry to hear that you catch a cold on your way here. Of course I'd be happy to take you to see doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM).
Lucky, I happen to know a doctor Mrs Yan, who is fully qualifying and has worked for nearly 30 years in the hospital near my house, She has such much experience that she has a very good knowledge of herbal medicine. I plan to take you directly to visit her. I'm sure she'll be able to help yourself.
TCM doctors don't treat for everyone in the same way. Moreover, TCM can not only produce effective cures and have few side effect.
Seeing you on Monday. I hope you will get well soon.
Yours,
