17、 of adult identity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence, during which many of todays students and are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.For previous generations, college was a decisive break from parental control; guidance and support needed to come from people
18、of the same age and from within. In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cell phones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage
19、 from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home.To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. This pro
20、cess involves trying on new ways of thinking about oneself both intellectually and personally. While we should provide safe spaces within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered by strict debate and questi
21、oning.Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the challen
22、ge of finding an identity within a larger and complex community.Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to - 17 -being controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly
23、defined and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when there are reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times
24、 of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescents desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth.Every college discussion about com
25、munity values, social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery.38. Whats the authors attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?A. Sympathet
26、ic. B. Neutral.C. Supportive. D. Disapproving.39. According to the author, what role should college play?A. To develop a shared identity among students.B.

31、 a highly profitable, fast-growing industry, urging antitrust (反垄断) regulators to step in to check those who control its flow. A century ago, the resource in question was oil. Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants (巨头) that deal in data, the oil of the digital age. The most valuable fi
32、rms are Google, Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft. All look unstoppable.Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up. But size alone is not a crime. The giants success has benefited consumers. Few want to live without search engines or a quick delivery. Far from charging consum
33、ers high prices, many of these services are free (users pay, in effect, by handing over yet more data). And the appearance of new-born giants suggests that newcomers can make waves, too.But there is cause for concern. The internet has made data abundant, all-present and far more valuable, changing t
34、he nature of data and competition. Google initially used the data collected from users to target advertising better. But recently it has discovered that data can be turned into new services: translation and visual recognition, to be sold to other companies. Internet companies control of data gives t
35、hem enormous power. So they have a “Gods eye view” of activities in their own markets and beyond.This nature of data makes the antitrust measures of the past less useful. Breaking up firms like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves: in time, one of them would become great ag
36、ain. A rethink is requiredand as a new approach starts to become apparent, two ideas stand out.The first is that antitrust authorities need to move from the industrial age into the 21st century. When considering a merger (兼并), for example, they have traditionally used size to determine when to step
37、in. They now need to take into account the extent of firms data assets (资产) when assessing the impact of deals. The purchase price could also be a signal that an established company is buying a new-born threat. When this takes place, especially when a new-born company has no revenue to speak of, the
38、 regulators should raise red flags.- 20 -The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of on-line services have over data and give more to those who supply them.Companies could be forced to reveal to consumers what information they hold and how much money they make from it. Government
39、s could order the sharing of certain kinds of data, with users consent.Restarting antitrust for the information age will not be easy. But if governments dont want a data economy controlled by a few giants, they must act soon.41. Why is there a call to break up giants?A. They dismissed some new-born
40、giantsB. They collect enormous private dataC. They no longer provide free servicesD. They have controlled the data market42. What does the technological innovation in Paragraph 3 indicate?A. Data giants technology is very expensiveB. Data can strengthen giants controlling positionC. Googles idea is
41、popular among data firmsD. Data can be turned into new services or products43. By paying attention to firms data assets, antitrust regulators could .A. kill a new threat B. favour bigger firmsC. avoid the size trap D. charge higher prices44. What is the purpose of loosening the giants control of dat
42、a?A. Small companies could get more opportunities.B. Governments could relieve their financial pressure.C. Consumers could better protect their privacy.D. Big companies could relieve data security pressure.【答案】41. D 42. B 43. C 44. A【解析】本文是一篇经济类阅读,主要介绍了信息时代的信息数据垄断现象,一些科技巨头 Google, - 21 -Amazon, Face
43、book 和 Microsoft 对数据的垄断引来了有关部门的反垄断调查。【41 题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段开头 Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up.可知这种情况导致了科技巨头被打压的呼声。“Such situations“指代第一段的“Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants(巨头)that deal in data,the oil of the digital age.“科技巨头控制了数据市场,这让人们很担心。故选 D.【
44、42 题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Internet companies control of data gives them enormous powerSo they have a “Gods eye view“ of activities in their own markets and beyond.“可知,互联网公司对数据的掌控使得它们拥有了很大的权力,说明数据会加强大公司的统治地位,【43 题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段 When considering a merger(兼并) ,they have traditionally used size to determine
45、when to step in. They now need to take into account the extent of firms data assets(资产)when assessing the impact of deals可知在反垄断监管机构以前介入的标准是看公司的规模,现在是把数据库的范围考虑在内。由此可知,通过关注公司的数据资产,反垄断监管机构可以避免规模陷阱。故选 C.【44 题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段 Companies could be forced to reveal to consumers what information they hold and
46、 how much money they make from it. Governments could order the sharing of certain kinds of data, with users consent.可知由于大公司垄断数据信息,不利于小公司更好地服务消费者,也不利于政府开展工作。弱化这种垄断公司将会给小公司带来更多发展机会。故选 A.DTwo things changed my life: my mother and a white plastic bike basket. I have thought long and hard about it and it
47、s true. I would be a different person if my mom hadnt turned a silly bicycle accessory into a life lesson I carry with me today.My mother and father were united in their way of raising children, but it mostly fell to my mother to actually carry it out. Looking back, I honestly - 22 -dont know how sh
48、e did it. Managing the family budget must have been a very hard task, but she made it look effortless. If we complained about not having what another kid did, wed hear something like, “I dont care what so-and-so got for his birthday, you are not getting a TV in your room/a car for your birthday/a lavish sweet-16 party.“ We had to earn our allowance by doing chores around the house. I can still remember how long it took to polish the legs of our coffee table. My brothers can no doubt remember hours spent cleaning the house. Like the two little girls growing up at the White House, we made ou
