49、rity of the problem by supporting and developing a group of tools, apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting through. Unfortunately, its too little, too late.

A decade of data breaches(数据侵入) of personal information has led to a situation where scammers can easily learn your mothers name, and far more. Armed with this knowledge, theyre able to carry out in
53、dividually targeted campaigns to cheat people.

Scammers
54、 follow money, so companies will be the worst hit. A lot of business is still done over the phone, and much of it is based on trust and existing relationships.

59、echnology【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. C【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章指出语音操作与自动化技术的出现使得机器人电话可以以假乱真,欺诈现象更加严重,解决这个问题需要电话运营商和消费者共同努力。【28题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段中的We are finally waking up to the severity of the problem by supporting and developing a group of tools, apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting t
60、hrough. Unfortunately, its too little, too late. By the time these “solutions”(解决方案) become widely available, scammers will have moved onto cleverer means.可知,我们认识到了问题的严重性,支持和开发了旨在防止欺诈者通过的工具、应用程序和方法,。不幸的是,我们的努力太少了,也太晚了。在这些“解决方案”被广泛使用的时候,骗子将转移到更巧妙的手段上。由此推知,作者认为这些“解决办法”对于解决问题起不了什么作用,因此作者感到很“失望”。故D选项正确。
61、【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中的The reason that robocalls are a headache has less to do with amount than precision. A decade of data breaches(数据侵入) of personal information has led to a situation where scammers can easily learn your mothers name, and far more. Armed with this knowledge, theyre able to carry out
62、individually targeted campaigns to cheat people. This means, for example, that a scammer could call you from what looks to be a familiar number and talk to you using a voice that sounds exactly like your bank tellers, tricking you into “confirming” your address, mothers name, and card number.可知,机器人通
63、话之所以令人头痛,与其说与数量有关,不如说与精确度有关。长达十年的个人信息泄露已经导致了这样一种情况:骗子可以轻易地知道你母亲的名字,甚至更多。有了这些知识,他们就能够开展有针对性的活动来欺骗人们。根据这些可知,利用这种新的技术,欺诈者们可以精确的确定他们行骗的目标。故A选项正确。【30题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句At this years I/O Conference, a company showed a new voice technology able to produce such a convincing human-sounding voice that it was
64、able to speak to a receptionist and book a reservation without detection.可知,这项语音技术可以产生一个听起来和人类非常相似的声音,它可以和接待员进行交谈,进行预订。由此可知,这项新技术有其好的方面。根据第三段的叙述可知,欺诈者们可以利用这项新技术来进行欺诈行为。由此推知,这项新技术既可以发挥好的作用,也可能为坏人所利用,产生不好的影响,因此可以说它是一把双刃剑。故B选项正确。【31题详解】主旨大意题。第一段提到:robocalls(机器人电话:自动拨号播放录音信息的推销电话)在未来变得会越来越严重,不仅仅是出现在你的手机
65、屏幕上的电话号码令人怀疑,而且你会质疑听到的声音是否是真的。第二段介绍原因:语音操作与自动化技术的出现使得机器人电话可以以假乱真。第三段介绍了语音操作和自动化技术发展会使得机器人电话产生的问题更加严重。最后两段提出我们该如何应对这些问题。综上,文章第一段点明文章中心:机器人电话问题在未来会变得越来越严重。下文都是围绕这一话题展开的。故C选项适合作标题。DBy the end of the century if not sooner, the worlds oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, accordin
66、g to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms(海洋微生物) called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue, depending on the type and conce
67、ntration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the oceans appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When thes
68、e organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the oceans warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight a
69、nd carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MITs Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3, it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would
70、occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocea
71、n changing. ” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive.” Those kinds of changes could
72、affect the food chain.Whatever colour changes the ocean experiences in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “Itll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happening because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz sa
73、id, “but the change in the colour of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have changed our planet.”32 What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?A. The various patterns at the ocean surface.B. The cause of the changes in ocean colour.C. The way light reflects off mar
74、ine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.33. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Sensitive.B. Beneficial.C. Significant.D. Unnoticeable.34. What can we learn from the passage?A. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem
75、.B. Dutkiewiczs model aims to project phytoplankton changes.C Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.35. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes.B. To analyse the composition of
76、 the ocean food chain.C. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.D. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. C【解析】【分析】本文为一篇说明文。一项最新研究表明,由于气候变暖,世界海洋将会变得更蓝、更绿。这一现象的原因是因为一种叫做浮游植物的微小海洋微生物,因为光线反射的作用,它们在海洋表面形成了五颜六色的图案,现在浮游植物受到海洋变暖趋势的影响,让浮游植物的生长更加旺盛,所以海洋相应会变得更蓝、
77、更绿。【32题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段By the end of the century, if not sooner, the worlds oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.可知,一项新的研究表明,到本世纪末,由于气候变暖,如果不尽快的话,世界上的海洋将会变得更蓝、更绿。结合第二段At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms(海洋微生物) called phytoplan
