9、 prevent it?“ about 50 million men and 60 million women between the ages of 18 and 79 are “too fat“ and need to reduce excess weight. This amount to about 377 million kg of excess fat for men and 667 million kg for women, or a total of t044 million kg (2297 million 1b) for the United States adult po
10、pulation! If the overfat men and women dieted by consuming 600 fewer calories each day to reduce to a “normal“ value of body fat (achievable in 68 days for men and 101 days for women), the reduced caloric intake would equal 5.7 trilling calories. Translating this into fossil fuel energy and consider

There are obviously other factors operative such as genetic, environmental, and social influences. However, these causes probably overlap. It seems fairly certain that the treatme

20、1. As the business sector, and indeed all of our society, becomes more dependent on computers, concern about computer security grows. According to Business Week, roughly $1 trillion is transferred every day via computer networks. Yet a knowledgeable person can, with relative ease, access a computer
21、system and cause serious damage. Estimates of the annual cost of computer crime range from $ I billion to $ 2 billion.2. One of the most recent computer problems firms face is called a “computer virus“. A virus is a type of computer program that is intentionally hidden in other computer programs. Wh
22、en a program with a virus comes into contact with other programs, the virus attacks the other programs. Some viruses can destroy every bit of information in a computer. Businesses also fact the problem of losing highly confidential data to computer hackers. These individuals break into computer syst
23、ems and steal information or damage programs.3. Computer viruses and computer hackers present a huge potential risk to firms. They have shut down entire computer systems in some large companies.4. Fortunately, business firms can now obtain insurance coverage for losses from computer crime. Although
24、some policies specifically cover computer viruses, many others were drafted before computer viruses became a problem. These policies generally insure all risks of direct physical loss or damage, unless something is specifically excluded. The issue then becomes whether or not the damage caused by a c
25、omputer virus is a physical loss. In some cases, insurance companies have maintained that information lost on a computer is not physical property and thus is not covered by a traditional all-risk policy.5. Many insurance companies are beginning to use policy language that deals specifically with the
26、 loss of computer information. In this way, the insured understands what is covered, and the insurance company can avoid a large, unexpected loss. Courts have held that information stored on the computer is tangible (切实的) property in tax cases. In property insurance cases, they may handle the destru
27、ction of computer information the same way. Destruction of valuable information, therefore, could result in a catastrophic loss that is covered under an all- risk policy unless there is limiting language.A. Fatalness from viruses and hackersB.

31、s on their teacher. They got to grade me anonymously, assessing the clarity of my thinking, my organizational skills and the depth of my knowledge. At their best, such evaluations keep me alert to what works and what does not. Students reflect my performance back to me, and I am glad to learn what t
32、hey think of my teaching, so that I might try to improve.I am also aware that the students comments become the primary evidence of my abilities, a paper trail following me throughout my career. When I come up for review, the promotion committee will examine my evaluations to determine just what kind
33、 of teacher I am.There is, of course, nothing wrong with accountability. But this system assumes that what students need is the same as what they want. Reading my evaluations every semester has taught me otherwise. Many students expectations for their courses have changed, reflecting, in part, the b
34、usiness model more universities are following. Classes are considered services, and parents are eager to get their moneys worth from their childrens education. Students feel pressure from their parents to derive practical use from their courses.This could make sense for an engineering course, but in
35、 my field, creative writing, which rarely churns out polished 21-year-old writers, it is trickier to provide the results that the career-minded student craves. Then I stumbled upon some dubious teaching techniques, reversed the criticisms of these chronically unhappy students and improved my student
36、 evaluations for the semester. My record would reflect a smart, attentive, encouraging teacher. But I would argue that I taught these students little. They loved me because I agreed that writing should be easy.I know other teachers who have done the same thing: teach your heart out to the teachable
37、but be sure to please the unteachable, to keep your ratings high like a politician trying to improve his poll results.I believe in the struggle, and most students I have met do too. But I still cant help wincing when I read, “The instructor is mean.“ “Marcus is not committed to my work.“ “This class
38、 sucks.“ The business model has taught me that the customer is always right. But maybe a few more dissatisfied customer would mean a better learning experience.(分数:15.00)(1).What does the phrase “turn the tables on their teachers“ in Para. 1 mean?(分数:3.00)A.Students turn the tables to their teachers

43、praises.五、B第二篇/B(总题数:1,分数:15.00)BDeath penalty/BWith the possible exception of equal rights, perhaps the most controversial issue across the united States today is the death penalty. Many argue that it is an effective deterrent to murder, while others maintain there is no convincing evidence that th
44、e death penalty reduces the number of murders.The principal argument advanced by those opposed to the death penalty, basically, is that it is cruel and inhuman punishment, that it is the mark of a brutal society, and finally that it is of questionable effectiveness as a deterrent to crime anyway.In
45、our opinion, the death penalty is a necessary evil. Throughout recorded history there have always been those extreme individuals in every society who were capable of terribly violent crimes such as murder. But some are more extreme than others.For example, it is one thing to take the life of another
46、 in a fit of blind rage, but quite another to coldly plot and carry out the murder of another one or more people in the style of a butcher. Thus, murder, like all other crimes, is a matter of relative degree. While it could be argued with some conviction that the criminal in the first instance shoul
47、d be merely isolated from society, such should not be the fate of the latter type murderer.The value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime may be open to debate. But the overwhelming majority of citizens believe that the death penalty protects them. Their belief is reinforced by evidence whic
48、h shows that the death penalty deters murder. For example, from 1954 to 1963, when the death penalty was consistently imposed in California, the murder rate remained between three and four murders for each 100,000 population, Since 1964 the death penalty has been imposed only once, and the murder ra
49、te has risen to 10.4 murders for each 100,000 population. The sharp climb in the states murder rate, which began when executions stopped, is no coincidence. It is convincing evidence that the death penalty does deter many murderers. If the bill reestablishing the death penalty is vetoed, innocent people will be murderedsom
