Some people who use a web browser just enter a keyword where the URL is normally en-treed. Sometimes this leads to good results. The reasons are explained easily. If you enter award into a web browser, the browser first adds http:// to it and tries to find a web page. If that does not work, it adds . com at the end and then www. after the http:// part.【T1】So entering motorcycles will lead you eventually to http:// www. motorcycles. com/, which leads to the Honda web site in the US.If you search for Harley Davidson motorcycles then you could enter Harley-Davidson and the browser would expand the name to http://www. harley-davidson. com/,which leads you to the web site of the Harley Davidson manufacturer. Some older browsers do not support the expansion of keywords, so people need to add these attributes manually, but adding http://www. and. com to the keyword is not that difficult.【T2】That was the reason why in the early years so many people registered domain names without using then, as they had recognized the value it would have in the future.The fact that web browsers try to guess what you are doing is used by a new service called HT-TP2.【T3】They seem to have invented a new protocol for transferring information between a web server and a web browse, but in reality they do something completely different.You can go to their web site and register a domain name that uses http2//instead of http://. The trick is that they omit the colon. So if you have a site registered at http2, the URL name looks like this: http2//ebusi-ness. The idea of http2 is exploiting a feature of most browsers, that if they do not find an address ht-tp2//ebusiness,it expands it to http;//www. http2. com;//e-business,which is the redirected to the site you have registered at HTTP2. 【T4】If you are looking for specific item, just type in the name and see if there is a web site with the corresponding information. If there is not such a web site, then try out brand names associated with your search.If you are living in Germany and require Information on ties(Karate is a tie in German), you could try http://www. krawatte. de/ and you will go to an online shop that sells ties and gives information on how to use ties products. In the Netherlands you could try http;// www. philips. nl/ and will land on the web site of Philips consumer products, Ferrari fans initially go to http://www. ferrari. it/ in order to buy merchandise or become a member in the Ferrari fan or owners club. Depending on the country you live in you will have other ideas how to find your information. Some companies, especially smaller-to-medium enterprises, prefer to use the top level domain(TLD)of the country of origin.【T5】As a general rule: American companies use mainly . com, all others may use it, but not necessarily. If you search for a company in France, then use ". fr" as the suffix.

Today we do not measure the speed of computer functions in minutes, or in seconds, or even in hundredths(1 /100)or thousandths(1/1000)of seconds. We measure the speed of computers in bil-lionths of seconds. We call one billionth of a second a nanosecond. Computers were not always so fast, of course. In fact, at one time, the human mind could perform calculations faster than a computer. Let us look briefly at the development of the computer. We will see that the Computer Revolution happened only when computers developed their incredible speed. In 1833, Charles Babbage built his "analytical engine", the first computing machine. His colleague, Augusta Ada, the Countess of Lovelace, continued Babbage's work. She became the first programmer in history. Fifty years later, Herman Hollerith designed a machine that counted automatically. This machine was used to count the number of people in the United States for the 1890 census. It used a system of punch cards. Hollerith's company, by the way, eventually became IBM(International Business Machines). The first large digital computer was built by IBM in 1944. It was called the Mark I. Then in 1947,IBM built the Mark II. Today we cannot imagine how slow these computers were, just as we cannot imagine how fast modern computers are. These computers needed one or two seconds to perform one calculation. In these same years, electronic computers developed. They were much faster than the huge, slow Mark I and Mark II. ENIAC is the name of the first all-electronic computer, built in 1944 and 1945. The world was amazed to learn the speed of this computer: 5 000 additions per second, and 300 multiplications per second. Today we smile at these "slow" speeds. Then in 1960 the real "revolution" began with the introduction of integrated circuits. Today, thousands of transistor circuits can fit on one small silicon chip. As a result, we now measure the speed of computers in nanoseconds.

38. According to the passage, which of the following is the most important feature of a modern computer?

  • A.Its small size.

John Harold Drake is a man of deep compassion, and has written a book that argues for the cause of children in need of love. Children, Little Children is an honest book, showing great concern and dissatisfaction with the care for children. The difficult trick of living inside another person's mind and being able to put your reader inside that same mind, is a capability held only by writers of exceptional skill and talent. Mr. Drake has approached the problem by making a 10-year-old boy his central character. The boy does not for a moment come across as a real child. Irresponsible parents abandoned him, his grandfather disliked him, he took everything literally, and begged everyone for love. Bret is being used to make a point. His ideas are too poetic, his response too direct, and the contrasts of good and evil too simplistic for real life. He is being manipulated by someone behind the scenery trying to tell us something. For fifteen years the author has been dealing with people with psychological trouble at the V. I. T. Neuro-psychiatric Institute. He has actively been involved in this field at other institutions for a quarter of a century. This book is a form of acting out, through the character, Bret, the pain of a rejected child. If one understands the book in those terms, one may be willing to believe the imaginary story. If viewed in this light, the exaggerated movements and reactions of the characters became less unbelievable and therefore more meaningful. The excessively poetic passages of description and emotion, seen as stage flats made more colorful than nature in order to look real from afar, are acceptable in a drama where they are irritating in a novel. The one sided characterizations insane father, immature mother, mean old grandmother, selfish aunt, cruel neighbours, and totally misunderstood Bret are figures moving across a lit stage to dramatize a message. The true to life ending, without resolution or growth or development, might work on a stage, however, it is contrary to everything a novel should do. Calling the book a novel is the publisher's mistake, the work is more nearly a drama. Perhaps it is one of Mr Drake's psychodramas in print and should so be judged.

34. The author of the passage feels that______.

  • A.Mr. Drake's character, Bret, is too unrealistic
  • B.the central character should not be manipulated
  • C.the message conveyed by the characterization is important
  • D.Mr. Drake is not good at writing novels

Does the evidence that the left and right sides of the brain differ somewhat in function have implications for personality differences? There is research indicating that the right hemisphere is linked to negative emotions, to spatial or imagery processing, and to thinking of pure melodies, while the left hemisphere is linked to verbal and mathematical thought and positive emotions. Is it possible that each half of the brain reflects two basic but different dimensions of human capacity? Are some personality differences that involve consistent styles of information processing of reflective thought correlated with a greater activation of the left and right hemispheres? Adults who differ in their initial encoding styles also demonstrate brain wave patterns or eye movement differences that suggest they " favor" one or another hemisphere of the brain during reflective thought. An approach to studying such differences has emerged by examining the direction in which people shift their eyes when trying to reflect on a question or to recall information. Anatomically(从解剖学上来说)the neural pathway from the left eye goes to the right hemisphere of the brain and from the right eye to the left hemisphere. Since our eyes normally shift together, it has been shown that the stimulation of the right brain hemisphere leads to a shift of the eyes to the left and, correspondingly, left hemisphere stimulation shifts the eyes to the right. Studies of persons who show consistent left-or-right-eye shifts when engaged in reflective thought do offer some support for the views. Right shifters(that is, those whose left brain are most active)are more analytic in perceptual performance and score higher on measures of verbal concept formation, mathematics scores, and measures of mathematical, scientific, or theoretical interests. Left shifters are more imagery oriented, more inclined to daydream, more creative and aesthetically oriented. Left and right shifters even differ in where they prefer to sit in college lecture halls, with left shifters sitting on the right side and right shifters to the left of the center.

  • A.is proved to be unfounded
