• 1．Jack Ma，whose Chinese name is Ma Yun，became the richest man in China，when the company he founded was floated on the stock market last year with a value of around ￡140 billion．Here are some interesting stories about him．
     1． "Beer" was the first word that Jack Ma searched for on the Internet．In 1995 Ma made his first trip to the US and used the Internet for the first time．After searching for "beer" and then "China"，he saw that no results came up relating to China．He decided to set up a Chinese website - the seeds of Alibaba had been planted．
     2．Jack Ma applied to study at Harvard University 10 times and was rejected（拒絕）each time．Ma failed the entrance exam to college in China three times and was also rejected by many jobs，including one at KFC．He was also turned down by Harvard University 10 times after applying．
     3．Jack Ma learnt English by guiding tourists free every day for nine years．Limited resources meant it was difficult to learn English when Ma was young．However，he found that he could learn the language by guiding tourists free around his hometown，Hangzhou，which he did during his teenage years every morning for nine years．He found everything they said and did was so different from what he had been taught at school and by his parents，which opened his mind．
     4．Jack Ma named his company Alibaba because it's a globally known story．Ma simply wanted his company to have a global and interesting name and realised that Alibaba is a story known across the world and it begins with A，appearing at the top of lists．The company was founded in 1999 and since then has grown from 15 employees to more than 30，000．Ma hopes to keep expanding Alibaba outside of China．

• 2．You can choose a private setting when you browse（瀏覽）the Internet．But be forewarned：It may not afford nearly as much privacy as you expect．That's the finding of a new study．
     Major web browsers，such as Google's Chrome and Apple's Safari，are often a private-browsing option．It's sometimes referred to as "being incognito"．This option lets you surf the Internet browser and saves a record into its history of each page that you visited．And what sites you visit won't affect the suggestions your browser makes the next time you're filling out an online form．
     Many people believe incorrectly that the incognito setting broadly protects them．Most believe it even after reading a web browser's explanation of the incognito mode．
     For instance，a new study had 460 people read web browsers' descriptions of private browsing．Each person read one of 13 descriptions．Then the participants answered questions about how private they thought their browsing would be while using this tool．The volunteers didn't understand the incognito mode．This was true no matter which browser's explanation they had read．The researchers reported their findings on April 26 at the 2018 World Wide Web Conference in Lyon，F(xiàn)rance．
     More than half of the volunteers thought that if they logged in a Google account through a private window，Google wouldn't keep a record of their search history．Not true．And about one in every four participants thought private browsing hid their device's IP address．That's wrong，too．
     Blase Ur was one of the study's authors．He's an expert in computer security and privacy at the University of Chicago in Illinois． "Companies could clear up this confusion by giving better explanations of the incognito mode，" his team said．For example，the browsers should avoid vagueness（模糊）．The web browser Opera，for instance，promised users that "your secrets are safe"．Firefox encourages users to "browse like no one's watching"．In fact，someone might be． （If you'd like to know more about the research information，please click here．）
  
  （1）The "incognito" mode is believed to be able to

  ．
  A．record one's passwords
  B．give a warning of insecure links
  C．help hide one's past browsing history
  D．a(chǎn)ccess one's favorite websites quickly
  （2）Where is the article probably from？

  
  A．A text book．
  B．A newspaper．
  C．A magazine．
  D．The Internet．
  （3）The last paragraph is written to

  ．
  A．report a new finding
  B．put forward a suggestion
  C．introduce a web browser
  D．correct a misunderstanding

第二節(jié) 讀后續(xù)寫（滿分25分）

• 8．閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進行續(xù)寫，使之構(gòu)成一個完整的故事．
      I fetched my mail as usual．Suddenly a colorful flyer（傳單）jumped into my sight．In the middle was a drawing of an old-fashioned phone，like the one my great-aunt Sara owned 40 years ago and at the bottom was a phone number．Running over it，I couldn't help laughing．
      "Is that mail funny？" my ten-year-old daughter， Jenny，asked．
      "Not really，" I admitted． "It's about the wake-up service．Outdated already．"
      "What's that？" she frowned（皺眉）．I explained how，before smart-phones，people sometimes paid someone to wake them with a call．
      "Who sent this flyer？" she pressed．
      I shook my head． "Probably someone older and he could need some money，" I said．
      Her eyes lit up． "Can we order a wake-up service？" she asked．
      "No kidding．With smart phones at hand，who will need it？And it's not cheap at all．＄2.5 per day．" I picked up the flyer and headed for the recycling bin．
      "Wait!" she shouted．
      "I feel sorry for the wake - up man，if he needs some money，" she said in tears． "Can't we order？"
      I looked at the flyer with its drawing of an old-fashioned phone．I remembered，again，my great-aunt Sara and her old phone．As a kid，I used to visit her over Labor Day when Jerry Lewis would host his charity（慈善）event for the disabled kids．Aunt Sara would grasp my hand tightly and then reach for the telephone，dialing the number on the screen．Holding the receiver between us，we'd announce to the operator， "We'd like to help those kids．"
      But now here was my own child，showing the same heart I had once been encouraged to have，and how could I ignore（不理睬）her？I googled the flyer's telephone number．The number belonged to a man called Raymond．
