26、Tim Berners-Lee. If you don’t know his name, you’ve surely used his famous invention. The British scientist created the World Wide Web.
On Oct.29, 2019, the Internet officially turned 50 years old. To mark the day, Berners-Lee wrote online, “The Internet and the web have changed billions of lives for the better. But their power for good is under threat(威胁). This birthday must mark the moment we take on the fight for the web we want.”
Speaking at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), he pointed out three problems affecting today’s web-criminal behavior, ad-based websites, and offensive online communication. These problems led Berners-Lee to create the Web Foundation for the web. The Foundation aims to protect internet users.
Despite all of these negatives, we shouldn’t forget about all the benefits the Internet brings. In this digital age, the Internet connects the world through social media, cashless payments and has become an important source of information. It can also make a positive difference through activities that push for positive change, education or aid.
One such activity is Movember. The movement, held every November, encourages men to grow a mustache(胡子) for the whole month, post pictures online, and donate. The charity promotes physical health, mental health, and suicide(自杀) prevention for men. Not to mention, the Internet is also a source of fun. From funny kitten videos on Weibo to your very own Douyin videos, the Internet allows you to share what you create.
Speaking to the Web Foundation, Berners-Lee said, “The web has become a public square, a library, a doctor’s office, a shop, a school, and it has given marginalized groups who have few chances to express themselves in real life a voice.” In the next 30 years, if we give up on trying to build a better web, we will have failed it. We need to come together as a global community.”
【1】According to Tim Berners-Lee, the Web Foundation was created to ________.
A.fight against online crime
B.celebrate the Internet’s 50th birthday
C.increase internet speeds around the world
D.build a better protected network environment
【2】Which is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Movember is held to draw public attention to men’s mustache.
B.Tim Berners-Lee, the American scientist created World Wide Web.
C.More people prefer to use the Internet for fun instead of getting information.
D.In the future, we will probably fail to build a better web unless we keep trying.
【3】The underlined phrase “marginalized groups” in the last paragraph probably refers to ________.
A.wealthy people
B.old people
C.disadvantaged people
D.powerful people
【4】The article is mainly about ________.
A.the history of the World Wide Web
B.the problems of the World Wide Web
C.Tim Berners-Lee’s plans to save the World Wide Web
D.the plan to celebrate World Wide Web’s 50th birthday
27、The train pulled into the station at 8:05 p.m. on time, just as the schedule required, and the excellent Dr. Twill rushed to the train exit door and jumped onto the platform with a crowd of other travelers. He was tired from his long journey on the train(伸懒腰) and yawned (打哈欠), and decided to find a hot cup of coffee before heading out to enjoy the bright city night.
His trip through the nearby county towns had been a rewarding one: with a few short explanations here, some attractive promises there, and a great deal of excitement everywhere he went, he had been able to sell a number of his electrical cures at prices which made him more money than he had expected, and returned with a much lighter truck and fatter wallet than those with which he had departed. The cures were many and various, ranging from electrical hair brushes which promised to grow more hairs on a shiny bald head and give back a youthful and good-looking appearance, to electrical belts which were designed to reduce the fat around the belly(肚子), lose weight every hour and build strong muscles while watching TV on a sofa, even to electrical shoes, the function of which was still unclear but wonderful without questions.
He had even been able to get some rather big investments(投资)in the development of his latest cure: a bottle of magic water with pure electrical energy. When someone imbibes it, the whole health would improve, including his or her physical appearance of the body and the mind from within! Moreover, this magic water works on both humans and pets. It is so popular that many people have asked to buy it before Dr. Twill is able to produce it.
