12、ained adolescence, no performer made a more compelling entrance into manhood than Michael Jackson did with the release of his 1979 album, “Off the Wall“ just a couple of weeks before his 21st (46) (day). It was all the more stunning because we had watched him during his child (47) and adolescence. H
13、e wasnt an apparition rising out of obscurity, like Elvis Presley. To become who he was in “Off the Wall,“ he had to annul-if not destroythe performer he had been in the Jackson 5.However, the change was (48) rgan) as well as deliberate. Michael Jackson grew into his body, and out of that new body e
14、merged wholly new ideas of what pop music, and the move (49) it generates, were. It can be hard to remember now, 30 years later, just how ubiquitous the hits from that album, especially “Rock with You,“ really were. In soul, in rock nroll, and in pop, there is a long tradition of men singing in high
15、 voices, the height of the voice suggesting the pitch of the singers fervour. Michael Jackson made the sweetness of that high voice guttural and (50) (demand). He showed that it was rooted in his feet and hips and hands. He re-sexualized it in a way that you could never really mistakethenas androgyn
16、ous.Very few artistscertainly very few child starshave ever redefined themselves as thoroughly or as (51) (success) as Michael Jackson did. His second act was better than any number of first acts put together. The uncanny thing wasnt just his physical transformation, or his hypnotic new ability to m
17、ove. It was the certainty of “Off the Wall“ and its sequel “Thriller“ that this was the music we wanted to hear. He knew, too, that this was a music we wanted to (52) (visual), to see formalised and set loose in dance. In a sense, he was loosing his transformation upon the rest of us, expecting us t

The alchemy of change worked longer and (54) (well) for himthrough the 80s and into th

22、 batch of Chinese astronauts, will disqualify those who have scars, runny noses, ringworm, drug allergies or bad breath.“The bad smell would affect their fellow colleagues in the confined space,“ said Shi Bingbing, an official at one of the six astronaut health screening hospitals in Nanjing.Aside f

LOUISIts no secret that raising children can he expensive, but how about a quarter of a
27、 million dollars expensive.?A government report released Tuesday said a middle-income family with a child born last year will spend about $ 221,000 raising that child until the age of 17.The report by the US Department of Agricultures Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion identified housing as t
28、he largest single expense, followed by food and child care/education costs. The $ 221,000 in expenses rises to about $ 292,000 when adjusted for inflation.USDA economist Mark Lino, who co-authored the report with Andrea Carlson, often hears people say children cost a lot when the annual findings are
29、 issued.“I tell them children also have many benefits, so you have to keep that in mind,“ he said.Families with more income spend more on child-related costs, the report said. A family that earns less than $ 57,000 annually will spend about $160,000 on a child from birth until the end of high school
30、. Those with an income between $ 57,000 and $ 99,000 spend about $ 221,000, and those with higher incomes spend roughly $ 367,000.Costs of raising a child are highest in the urban Northeast and lowest in the urban South and rural areas.The USDA report helps courts and states determine child-support
31、guidelines and foster-care payments. It does not address costs specifically related to childbearing and paying for college. One of the largest changes over time has been the increase in costs related to care for young children.The report first was issued in 1960, when such costs were largely negligi
32、ble, but with more working families turning to outside help with child care, it has grown to be a significant expense for many families. The report does not give total costs related to early child care.Raben Andrews, a mother of three in St Louis, said the government figures sounded right to her. “W

Spam is usually defined as unso
34、licited, mass commercial email. It is often associated with advertisements for pornographic websites, drugs, or surgery that can enhance your sex life. Within another year or so, industry experts predict, half of all email messages will be unsolicited.The flood of email marketing causes headaches fo
35、r email users. Additionally, it costs corporations billions of dollars and reduces employee productivity. According to a recent study, the average employee spends almost seven minutes per day handling an average of 13 spam messages. This translates to major corporate losses. The annual cost of spam
36、has reached $ 9 billion for US corporations alone.Perhaps worst of all, spare baffles anti-spammers, who havent vet come up with a solution to this growing problem, in fact, the only proven way to stop spam is not to have an email address.Internet service providers are the front line defenders again
37、st spam. ISPs like America Online, Microsoft, and Earthlink employ anti-spare technicians. These employees run spam filters. They physically watch the sending of email, keeping an eye out for sudden mass mailings. When a mailing looks suspicious, the anti-spammers check the owner of the sending addr
38、ess. However, addresses are difficult to track and easy for spammers to hide.Spammers are creative, most recently using a trick called the “dictionary attack“. With special software, spammers can generate millions of random entail addresses using combinations of letters such as “Joe236, “ placed in
39、front of the “ aol. corn“ part of the address. Enough of these addresses are correct that the email reaches millions of email users.In the United States, the situation has prompted calls for national legislation. State-level antispam laws have had limited effectiveness with few convictions. Major IS
40、Ps are aggressively pushing for national laws against spamming.On the other side of the issue, the direct-marketing industry and some Internet retailers have successfully fought federal law, which go against free-speech provisions of the Constitution.The European Union has adopted a practical ban on
41、 spam called an “opt-in“ system, in which companies have to wait for consumers to request commercial email before it can be sent to them.Until technology or anti-spam laws become more effective, people are taking small steps to fight spam on their own. For example, one computer consultant has create
42、d email accounts for the specific purpose of attracting spam. After he receives spam, he searches for the sender. His goal is to collect and publicize “blacklists“ of spammers Internet addresses. These are then incorporated into spam filters that block any email coming from those addresses.Email use
43、rs can take a few easy steps to fight spam.Dont click the “unsubscribe“ link. One would think that “unsubscribe“ would take you off a list. However, spammers have taken over the unsubscribe option, making it a confirmation of an active account. It is better just to delete the email.Keep many email a
44、ccounts. By using separate accounts for electronic business and personal use, you can keep your personal address cleaner.Choose a long email name. Use a mix of letters and numbers. This decreases the chance that a computer-generated email address will match yours.Avoid Web-based discussion groups. S
45、pammers frequently take addresses from the Internet. Online groups “are easy to find.Avoid contests and surveys. Again, spammers often gather addresses from the Web.Look into new filtering software. ISPs and other firms offer many creative solutions to spam.Email communication has become the fundame
46、ntal means of communication in the Information Age. However, it may soon be considered useless, as consumers are choking on spam. If every company freely sent unsolicited commercial advertisements, junk email would completely overrun us. Already, users are avoiding the Internet because they dont lik
47、e the huge“ amounts of junk they are forced to see.（分数：22.00）(1).Spare is defined as any commercial email.（分数：2.00）填空项 1:_(2).Spammers use software to guess at email addresses.（分数：2.00）填空项 1:_(3).The only way to slow spam is to buy a spare filter.（分数：2.00）填空项 1:_(4).Choose the best answer according to the
