Passage 4

　　The latest version of the “Love Bug” computer virus failed to cause nearly as much harm as its predecessor because companies remained on alert.

　　The new virus, dubed “NewLove”, slowly spread across the world over the past two days, infecting thousands of computers.

　　But the damage caused didn’t approach that caused by the first version, which infected millions of computers around the world two weeks ago and caused more than $10 billion in damages.

　　Because awareness was heightened by the Love Bug, network administrators responded much more quickly to NewLove and stymied it before it got out of control.

　　“In this perspective, Love Bug was a very positive wakeup call,” said Gene Hodges at security company Network Associates Inc, in Santa Clara, Calif.

　　“NewLove” is similar in form to the Love Bug, but it’s much more destructive. The virus appears as an attachment to an e-mail whose subject begins with “FW:” If a user clicks on the attachment’s scroll-like icon, every file on their hard drive is destroyed.

　　“Basically, it’s going to traxh your machine,” said Eric Chien, chief researcher at Symantec’s antivirus lab in the Netherlands.

　　The Love Bug only killed a small set of files, including graphics files. The new virus even wipes out the Windows cooperating system.

　　1. Which of following is not true in relation to “l(fā)ove B”?

　　A. It is a computer virus.

　　B. It kills files in a computer.

　　C. It appears as an attachment to an e-mail whose subject begins with”FW:”.

　　D. It was more harmfull to the computer world than “NewLove” virus.

　　答案：　C

　　考點：　該題是一個詢問題，考的是對"愛蟲"病毒的理解.

　　解析：　本題提問的是就"愛蟲"病毒而言，以下哪一個不正確.從文章的第一句話我們可以得知，最近，計算機病毒"愛蟲"的一種新形式帶給全球的危害不像先前的"愛蟲"那么嚴(yán)重，因為各個公司已經(jīng)有所提防.全文最后一段告訴我們，"愛蟲"病毒只毀壞一小部分文件，包括一些圖表文件，但是，"新歡"病毒則會破壞整個計算機系統(tǒng).由此可見，選項A，B和D都是正確;而選項C是"新歡"所為，并不是"愛蟲"所為.這一點明確陳述在第六段的第二句中，所以答案為C.

　　2. What does the word “stymie”(in the sentence “network administerators responded%and stymied it before it got out of control”) mean?

　　A. obstruct. B. get rid of . C. switch D. be frightened.

　　答案：　A

　　考點：　這是一個詞匯題，考的是對單詞"stymie"的理解.

　　解析：　本題提問的是"stymie"為何義;該詞出現(xiàn)在第四段中.它所在的句子的意思是：由于："愛蟲"提高了人們的警惕，所以，網(wǎng)絡(luò)管理員這次反應(yīng)非�？�，及時制止了""的蔓延.由此可見，本題的答案應(yīng)該是A(阻止，制止).

　　3. What does the “NewLove” bug basically do?

　　A. It sends some bugs into your computer.

　　B. It destroys your computer.

　　C. It shows tenderness to your computer.

　　D. It saves the files in your computer.

　　答案：　B

　　考點：　這是一個細(xì)節(jié)判斷題，考的是"新歡"根本上來說是干什么的.

　　解析：　本題的答案在原文第七段中直接陳述.在該段中，荷蘭Symantec抗病毒實驗室主要研究人員Eric Chien說道，"根本上來說，它將毀壞你的機器".因此，答案是B.

　　4. “NiwLove” ____.

　　A. was blocked before it went out of control.

　　B. destroys Windows operating system.

　　C. kills files in computers.

　　D. all the above.

　　答案：　D

　　考點：　這是一個理解判斷題，考的是對單詞"新歡"的理解.

　　解析：　從第四段的最后一句話我們可以得知，因為有了上次"愛蟲"的教訓(xùn)網(wǎng)絡(luò)管理員這次反應(yīng)非�？�，及制止了"新歡"的蔓延.所以選項A是正確的.再從文章的最后一段中來看，我們可以知道，該"新歡"病毒不但毀壞計算機文件，而且會破壞整個計算機操作系統(tǒng)，所以選項B和C也是正確的，由此可見，D為本題的答案.

　　5. If you are a computer user, you should ____in time of “NewLove”.

　　A. open your e-mail whose subject begins with whatever letter.

　　B. keep your computer off all the time.

　　C. scrutinize e-mail attachments closely.

　　D. stop surfing the Internet.

　　答案：　C

　　考點：　該題是一個判斷分析題，考的是如果你是一個計算機使用者，在"新歡"發(fā)作之際，你將會怎么辦.

　　解析：　本題所給的四個答案分別為：A(打開以任何字母為主題的電子郵件)，B(不要打開計算機)，C(認(rèn)真檢查電子郵件附件)和D(停止上網(wǎng)).從文章第六段的第二句我們可以得知，"新歡"病毒以電子郵件附件的形式出現(xiàn)，且郵件的主題是以"FM"的郵件，我們的計算機就不會染上病毒.所以，本題的答案應(yīng)該是：C，另外A，B，D都沒有必要，也是不可行的，所以，都不能入選.
