24、tD. One who is a good listener.BA Low-Carbon Economy (LCE) or Low-Fossil-Fuel Economy (LFFE) is an economy which has a smallest output of greenhouse gas (GHG) release into the atmosphere, but specifically refers to the greenhouse gas CO2. Recently, most of scientific and public opinion has come to t

25、he conclusion that there is such an accumulation of GHG (especially CO2) in the atmosphere due to human-related activities that the climate is changing. The over-concentration of these gases is producing global warming that affects long-term climate, with negative impacts on humanity in the foreseea

26、ble future. Globally performed LCEs therefore, are proposed as a means to avoid catastrophic climate change, and as a forerunner to the more advanced, zero-carbon society and renewable-energy economy.Some nations are low-carbon societies which are not heavily industrialized or populated. In order to

27、 avoid climate change at any point in the future, all nations considered carbon-thick societies and societies which are heavily populated, should become zero-carbon societies and economies. Several of these countries have promised to become low carbon but not entirely zero carbon, and claim that rel

28、ease will be cut by 100% by offsetting release rather than stopping all release. In other words, some release will continue which will be offset, so they are not low-release.Nations seek to become low-carbon economies as part of a national global warming reduction strategy. A comprehensive strategy

29、to manage global warming is carbon neutrality, geoengineering and adaptation to global warming.Nuclear power, or, the proposed strategies of carbon collection and storage (CCS) have been proposed as the primary means to achieve a LCE while continuing to exploit non-renewable resources; there is conc

30、ern, however, with the matter of spent-nuclear-fuel storage, security and the uncertainty of costs and time needed to successfully carry out CCS worldwide and with guarantees that the stored release will not leak into the atmosphere. Alternatively, many have proposed renewable energy should be the m

31、ain basis of a LCE, but, they have their associated problems of high-cost and inefficiency; this is changing, however, since investment and production have been growing significantly in recent times. Furthermore, regardless of the effect to the atmosphere by GHG releases, the growing issue of peak o

32、il may also be reason enough for a change to a LCE. 60. Low-carbon economy is encouraged for the following reasons except that _. A. too much greenhouse gas CO2 is released B. the over-concentration of greenhouse gases is producing global warming C. it can avoid catastrophic climate change D. low ca

33、rbon and zero carbon nations and societies claim for it61. The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means _. A. warningB. pioneerC. symbolD. guide62. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. Nuclear power could act as one of the primary means to achieve a LCE. B. T

34、heres worry about spent-nuclear-fuel storage, security and the uncertainty of costs. C. The stored release will be likely to leak into the atmosphere. D. Renewable energy tends to become the only means to achieve a LCE.63. From the last paragraph, we can infer that the writers attitude toward the pr

35、oposal of adapting renewable energy is _. A. negativeB. positiveC. self-confidentD. doubtful CEverywhere you look, large quantities of information in the world are pouring. This data flood is already starting to transform business, government, science and everyday life. It has great potential for go

36、od as long as consumers, companies and governments make the right choices about when to restrict the flow of data, and when to encourage it.A few industries have led the way in their ability to gather and take advantage of the data. Credit-card companies monitor every purchase and can identify cheat

37、s with a high degree of accuracy. Stolen credit cards are more likely to be used to buy hard liquor than wine, for example, because it is easier to overlook. Insurance firms are also good at combining clues to spot doubtful claims: dishonest claims are more likely to be made on a Monday than a Tuesd

38、ay, since policyholders (保险客户) who stage accidents tend to assemble friends as false witnesses over the weekend. By combining many such rules, it is possible to work out which cards are likeliest to have been stolen, and which claims are untrue. By analyzing “basket data”, supermarkets can make prom

39、otions to appeal to particular customers preferences. The oil industry uses supercomputers to help them before drilling wells. But the data flood also poses risks. There are many examples of databases being stolen: disks full of social-security data go missing, laptops loaded with tax records are le

40、ft in taxis, credit-card numbers are stolen by online purchase. The result can be privacy made public, identity stolen and cheats permitted large space. Rather than owning and controlling their own personal data, they very often find that they have lost control of it.The best way to deal with the da

41、ta flood is to make more data available in the right way, by requiring greater transparency in several areas. First, users should be given greater access to and control over the information held about them, including whom it is shared with. Google allows users to see what information it holds about

42、them, and lets them delete their search histories or modify the targeting of advertising, for example. Second, organizations should be required to disclose details of security breaches, as is already the case in some parts of the world, to encourage bosses to take information security more seriously

43、. Third, organizations should be subject to an annual security check, with the resulting grade made public (though details of any problems exposed would not be). This would encourage companies to keep their security measures up to date.64. What is the best title for this passage?A. Information Flood

44、 B. Benefits of Data Flood C. Harms of Data Flood D. How to Use Data in a Right Way65. From the passage we can infer that _.A. lots of data are lost because of hardware problemsB. online purchases are becoming more and more popularC. credit cards are not so secure to use and will go out of use very

45、soonD. insurance firms have to investigate before they confirm their policyholders claims66. From the passage we can conclude that _.A. the data flood makes peoples life less convenient and more expensive B. companies and insurance firms are responsible for the data flood C. the information flood is

46、 more useful to organizations than to individuals D. the information flood has both positive and negative influence on modern lifeDMuch as Robby tried, he lacked the sense of tone and basic rhythm (节奏).
