Ketchup (番茄酱) is a magical little dressing. It has a sweet and salty bite and makes just about any food more appetizing. 1. So how did ketchup become best friends with French fries? Let’s start at the beginning.
2.In fact, the first ketchup recipe did not include tomatoes! Instead the Chinese made it from salted fish. Doesn’t sound as appetizing as today’s dip, does it?3. In the 1900s it started making its way to everyone s dinner tables and refrigerators when the Heinz family bottled and sold it. Ketchup underwent another makeover in the 1970s with the rise of high-fructose corn syrup (高果糖玉米糖浆).
America’s favorite way to eat vegetables originated not in France as the name suggests, but in Belgium. When French fries made their way onto the scene in Europe in the early 1800s, ketchup, as we now know it, had not been invented yet. Americans accepted the side dish in the 1930s and enjoyed them fried in beef fat. 4. There are reports of early adopters dipping their fries in ketchup from as early as the late 1800s, but the trend didn’t take off in America until the 1940s. As the popularity of fast food restaurants grew, so did the desire to dip our fries in that tasty red sauce. Fast food restaurants started serving French fries with ketchup. 5.
A.You can even clean with it!
B.We have been hooked since.
C.They didn’t find ketchup delicious at all.
D.Then French fries were invented to go with ketchup.
E.In their birthplace, fries are served with salad dressing.
F.Red, tomato-based ketchup didn’t appear until much later.
G.Ketchup has been around for centuries but in a completely different form.
Back in November 1988, Robert Tappan Morris was a 20-something graduate student at Cornell who wanted to know how big the Internet was- that is, how many computers were connected to it. So he wrote a program that would travel from computer to computer and ask each machine to send a signal back to a control server, which would keep count. That was how the world’s first cyber (网络) attack set the stage for modern cyber security challenges.
The program worked well. Morris had known that if it traveled too fast there might be problems, but the limits he built in weren’t enough to keep the program from blocking up large sections of the Internet, both copying itself to new machines and sending those pings (电子脉冲) back, When he realized what was happening, even his messages warning system administrators about the problem couldn’t get through. Large numbers of Internet-connected computers are told to send lots of traffic to one particular address, overloading it with so much activity that either the system shuts down or its network connections are completely blocked. Morris’s program is now known as the “Morris worm”.
Worms and viruses are similar, but different in one key way: A virus needs a command, from a user or a hacker (黑客), to run its program. A worm, by contrast, hits the ground running all on its own. For example. even if you never open your email program, a worm that gets onto your computer might email a copy of itself to everyone in your address book.
In a time when few people were concerned about harmful software and nobody had protective software in his computer, the Morris worm spread quickly. It took 72 hours for researchers at Purdue and Berkeley to stop the worm. It affected tens of thousands of systems, Cleaning up the infection cost hundreds or thousands of dollars for each affected machine.
Morris wasn’t trying to destroy the Internet, but he was sentenced t0 three years of probation (缓刑) and a roughly US $ 10.000 fine. In the late 1990s, though. he became a dot-com millionaire- and is now a professor at MIT.
1.What is Morris’s intention 1o write the program known now as the “Morris worm”?
A.To test the effect of protective software.
B.To start a harmful attack on the Internet.
C.To see how well a program can work on the Internet.
D.To get the number of the computers connected to the Internet.
2.What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A.What loss the problem caused.
B.How the problem was dealt with.
C.How the unexpected problem came about.
D.What Morris did to prevent the problem from expanding.
3.What does the underlined part “hits the ground” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Copies itself. B.Gets on the Internet.
C.Gets the user’s command. D.Copies your email address book.
4.What happened to Morris after the attack?
A.He was punished for it. B.He invented a protective software.
C.He got help from a millionaire. D.He was asked to clear up the Internet.
I grew up in California but have spent about four years living in various parts of the UK. The first thing I noticed was that my West-Midlands host family did not sound like the queen. I’ve since learnt that accents change almost every five miles. As far as America goes. I can tell the West Coast from the East or the South, but I can’t tell you a state, much less a county (郡).
The next thing I couldn’t imagine was the quiet, stare-ahead norm of public transportation- if you talk to somebody on the Tube, you’re probably a serial killer or a lost tourist.
I’ve had to deal with the Tube from Heathrow to Victoria with heavy bags more times and Victoria Station is not exactly tourist friendly. Each time I’ve had someone walk up and ask to help with my bags. Not once have they been English. In America, at least from what I’ve experienced, people will start a chat if they see you’re travelling by yourself, and I always immediately have someone taller offer to put my things in an overhead bin (行李箱).
Opening hours-especially Sunday trading laws have also taken so much to get used to. In America, 24/7 fast food, grocery stores. petrol stations, etc. are the norm. In my first year in the UK,I forgot it was Easter Sunday, and went into town at 2：00 pm. Imagine my surprise when 1 found the city center was deserted, and there wasn’t a single car at Tesco. Approaching the building, I saw a large sign announcing opening times. I had to make do with plain bread until 9：00 am Monday, when I’d be able to pay for groceries again.
Speaking of groceries, it took so many people telling me I was crazy to convince me to eat eggs here- they’re not refrigerated, and they’ll often have bits of feather or chicken waste on the outside. 1 am now aware that they ‘re safe, but coming from a childhood of perfectly clean, white, large AAA eggs, I was convinced I’d die a terrible salmonella (沙门氏菌) death.
1.What’s the author’s impression of the transportation of the UK?
A.It’s very dangerous to use public transportations.
B.It’s easy for a tourist 10 get lost on public transportations.
C.British people willingly offer help on public transportations.
D.British people don’t talk to each other on public transportations.
2.What happened on Easter Sunday in the author’s first year in the UK?
A.He left the city center. B.He failed to buy any food.
C.A supermarket closed down. D.A restaurant opened in a tall building.
3.What is a good suggestion to a foreigner in the UK?
A.Try to speak like the queen.
B.Avoid eating unhealthy eggs.
C.Store some plain bread in the fridge.
D.Pay attention to the opening hours of the shops.
4.What’s the best title for the text?
A.How to Get Used to Life in the UK
B.What do I Find Strange about the UK
C.How Difficult It Is to Travel in the UK
D.What Can a Foreigner Expect in the UK
