15、五、PART READING COMPR(总题数：0，分数：0.00)六、TEXT A(总题数：1，分数：4.00)Internet advertising is booming. The industry has gone from $ 9.6 billion in revenue in 2001 to $ 27 billion this year, according to Piper J affray, an investment bank. And it is still early days. The internet accounts for only 5% of total sp

16、ending on advertising, but that figure is expected to reach at least 20% in the next few years. The single largest category within this flourishing industry, accounting for nearly half of all spending, is “pay-per-click advertising, which is used by firms both large and small to promote their wares.

17、It works like this. Advertisers bid on keywords that they believe potential customers will be interested in. This enables Internet firms such as Google, the market leader, and Yahoo!, its smaller rival, to display advertisements alongside the results of Internet searches. Somebody searching for a pa

18、rticular type of wine, for example, might see advertisements from wine merchants. Google, Yahoo! and other firms also place ads on affiliates websites-so wine merchants advertisements might also appear on a wine-appreciation site. The advertiser pays only when a consumer clicks on an ad; the owner o

19、f the website where the ad was displayed then receives a small commission.The benefits of the pay-per-click approach over traditional advertising are obvious. Since advertisers pay only to reach the small subset who actually respond to an advertisement, the quality of the leads generated is very hig

20、h, and advertisers are prepared to pay accordingly. The price per click varies from $ 0.10 to as much as $ 30, depending on the keyword, though the average is around $ 0.50.But as pay-per-click advertising has grown into a huge industry, concern has mounted over so-called “click fraud“-bogus clicks

21、that do not come from genuinely interested customers. It takes two main forms. If you click repeatedly on the advertisements on your own website, or get other people or machines to do so on your behalf, you can generate a stream of bogus commissions. Click fraud can also be used by one company again

22、st another: clicking on a rival firms advertisements can saddle it with a huge bill. Bogus clicks are thought to account for around 10% of all click traffic, though nobody knows for sure.Bill Gross, the entrepreneur who pioneered the pay-per-click model back in 1998, was aware of the problem even th

23、en. He installed a three-layered defence system: a filter to weed out clicks from known fraudsters at the outset, statisticians and software to spot suspicious click patterns, and co-operation with advertisers to enable them to analyse the leads generated and sound the alarm if necessary.But general

24、ly the industry adopted a rather cavalier attitude to click fraud. Eric Schmidt, the boss of Google, caused uproar a few months ago when he seemed to suggest that the “perfect economic solution“ to click fraud was to “let it happen“. He was responding to a theoretical question during a debate at Sta

25、nford University, but his response reinforced the perception that Google had higher priorities than addressing the problem.Such a flippant attitude has not gone down well with advertisers, who are up in arms about the problem. Some have even resorted to legal action. Google reached a settlement in M

26、arch with Lanes Gifts and Collectibles, a gift shop based in Arkansas, and agreed to offer refunds to advertisers who claim they have been charged for bogus clicks. Such refunds are capped at $ 90m, however, so many observers think Google got off lightly. And in June Yahoo! promised to intensify its

27、 efforts to fight click fraud as part of a settlement with CheckMate, a fraud-detection firm. As well as offering refunds for clicks determined to be fraudulent, Yahoo! agreed to appoint a “traffic-quality advocate“ to voice advertisers concerns within the company.In the wake of these legal challeng

28、es, Google and Yahoo! recently joined a working group at the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), which will establish standards for pay-per-click advertising, including the introduction of industry-funded auditing and certification, by the middle of 2009. “I believe Google and Yahoo! are now takin

29、g the issue very seriously,“ says David Jones, chief executive of Euro RSCG, an advertising company. But Rishad Tobaccowala, head of innovation at Publicis, one of the worlds biggest advertising groups, says it is too early to say whether the measures being taken against click fraud will be Enough t

D tie.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).All of the following were taken as measures to guard against click fraud EXCEPTA the collaboration between

B

33、Wrathful. C Disdainful. D Repulsive.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.七、TEXT B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)The Great Wall of ChinaWalls and wall building have played a very important role in Chinese culture. These people, from the dim mists of prehistory have been wail-conscious; from the Neolithic period when ramparts of pounded

34、 earth were used to the Communist Revolution, walls were an essential part of any village. Not only towns and villages; the houses and the temples within them were somehow walled, and the houses also had no windows overlooking the street, thus giving the feeling of wandering around a huge maze. The

35、name for “city“ in Chinese (cheng) means wall, and over these walled cities, villages, houses and temples presides the god of walls and mounts, whose duties were, and still are, to protect and be responsible for the welfare of the inhabitants. Thus a great and extremely laborious task such as constr

36、ucting a wall, which was supposed to-run throughout the country, must not have seemed such an absurdity.However, it is indeed a common mistake to perceive the Great Wall as a single architectural structure, and it would also be erroneous to assume that it was built during a single dynasty, for the b

37、uilding of the wall spanned the various dynasties, and each of these dynasties somehow contributed to the refurbishing and the construction of a wall, whose foundations had been laid many centuries ago. It was during the fourth and third century B.C. that each warring state started building walls to

38、 protect their kingdoms, both against one another and against the northern nomads. Especially three of these states: the Chin, the Chao and the Yen, corresponding respectively to the modem provinces of Shensi, Shansi and Hopei, over and above building walls that surrounded their kingdoms, also laid

39、the foundations on which Chin Shih Huang Di would build his first continuous Great Wall.The role that the Great Wall played in the growth of Chinese economy was an important one. Throughout the centuries many settlements were established along the new border. The garrison troops were instructed to r

40、eclaim wasteland and to plant crops on it, roads and canals were built, to mention just a few of the works carried out. All these undertakings greatly helped to increase the countrys trade and cultural exchanges with many remote areas and also with the southern, central and western parts of Asia-the

41、 formation of the Silk Route. Builders, garrisons, artisans, farmers and peasants left behind a trail of objects, including inscribed tablets, household articles, and written work, which have become extremely valuable archaeological evidence to the study of defence institutions of the Great Wall and

42、 the everyday life of these people who lived and died along the wall.（分数：5.00）(1).Chinese cities resembled a maze _.A. because they were walled B. because the houses has no external windowsC. because the name for cities means “wall“ D. because walls have always been important there（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(

43、2).Constructing a wall that ran the length of the country _.A. honoured the god of walls and mounts B. was an absurdly laborious taskC. may have made sense within Chinese culture D. made the country look like a huge maze（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The Great Wall of China _.A. was built in a single dynastyB

44、. was refurbished in the fourth and third centuries BCC. used existing foundationsD. was built by the Chin, the Chao and the Yen（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Crops were planted _.A. on wasteland B. to reclaim wastelandC. on reclaimed wasteland D. along the canals（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The Great Wall _.A. helpe

45、d build trade only inside China B. helped build trade in China and abroadC. helped build trade only abroad D. helped build trade only to remote areas（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.八、TEXT C(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Our public debates often fly off into the wild blue yonder of fantasy. So its been with the Federal Communicati

46、ons Commissions new media-ownership rules. Were told that, unless the FCCs decision is reversed, it will worsen the menacing concentration of media power and that this will-to exaggerate only slightly-imperil free speech, the diversity of opinion and perhaps democracy itself. All this is more than o

47、verwrought; it completely misrepresents reality.In the past 30 years, media power has splintered dramatically; people have more choices than ever. Travel back to 1970. There were only three major TV networks (ABC, CBS, NBC); now, theres a fourth (Fox). Then, there was virtually no cable TV; now, 68

48、percent of households have it. Then, FM radio was a backwater; now there are 5, 892 FM stations, up from 2, 196 in 1970. Then, there was only one national newspaper (The Wall Street Journal); now, there are two more (USA Today and The New York Times).The idea that “big media“ has dangerously increased its control over our choices is absurd. Yet much of the public, including journalists and politicians, believe religiously in this myth. They confuse size with power. Its true that some gigantic media companies are gettingeven bigger a
