But this 19-year-old Swede is anything but ordinary. From the computer in his parents’ home, he helps the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) find out the world’s most wanted cyber criminals.Jonathan first made headlines when he and another Swede, Fredrik Boers, found out the maker of the “Melissa” virus in March 1999. He came to the aid of the FBI again on May 7, finding out the suspected sen der of the dangerous “I LOVE YOU” virus. The suspect was caught in Manila on May 8.Jonathan’s special skills are in hot demand as officials around the world express alarm at the “virtual” crime wave. In between studying for final exams, hanging out with f riends and refereeing his younger brother’s football matches, the quiet, gentle teenager also gives lessons on e-security to large companies. He reads a lot and exchanges information with other computer experts to learn much about the latest tricks of the hacker trade.Many companies have already tried to employ him, but he is not interested at the moment. Instead, he plans to begin law school in the autumn at Sweden’s Uppsala University and start up his own e-security company.Although he works with the FB I now, his family insists he’s just “a regular kid”. “Jonathan is a great kid, he has his friends and he does a lot more than just play with the computer,” his little sister Tessa said, adding that he helps the FBI because “he likes to help”, not because he’s looking for fame and recognition.When the world was hit by the “Love Bug” virus, Jonathan was too busy preparing a speech on e-security to look into the problem. “Finally on May 7, I had some free time, so I began looking.” Within a few hours, he had found the suspect and e-mailed his method and results to the FBI. He said his work on the “Melissa” virus, which took three weeks to solve, was a big help in finding the suspect so quickly.“This time I knew exactly where to start, I knew what to disregard and what to look at.”46. The passage mainly wants to tell us that .A. Swedish kid helps FBI find out the most wanted cyber criminalB. Jonathan is really a quiet, gentle and ordinary boyC. many companies want the young computer expert to join inD. any cyber criminals will surely be found out wherever they are47.

From “ …I had some free time, so I began looking.” We may guess that the boy regarded the “Love Bug” virus as thing.A. a seriousB. an easyC. a funnyD. difficultBA study of older men in The Netherlands, known for its delicious chocolate, showed those who ate the same amount of one-third of a chocolate bar every day had lower blood pressure and a reduced risk of death.The researchers say, however, it’s too early to conclude that it was the chocolate that led to better health. The men who ate more cocoa products could have eaten other food that made them healthier. Experts also point out that eating too much chocolate can make you fat —a risk for both heart disease and high blood pressure.“It’s why too early to make recommendations about whether people should eat more cocoa or chocolate,” said Brian Buijsse, an expert for nutrition at Wageningen University in The Netherlands, who co-authored the study.Still, the Dutch Study, supported by grants (拨款) from the Netherlands Prevention Foundation, appears to be the largest so far to document a health effect for cocoa beans. And it confirms findings of smaller, shorter-term studies that also linked chocolate with lower blood pressure.Researchers examined the eating habits of 470 healthy men who were not taking blood pressure medicine. The men who ate the most products made from cocoa beans —including cocoa drinks, chocolate bars and chocolate pudding —had lower blood pressure and a 50 percent lower risk of death.“This is a very important article providing epidemiological support for what many researchers have been observing is experimental models,” said Cesar Fraga of the University of California Davis, who does similar research but was not involved in the new study.Could the study results apply to women?“Our study consisted of elderly inch,” Buijsse said. “If you look at the other studies, you willsee the same effects in men and women, younger people and older people. The findings may be generalizable to women, but you never know.”51. We can learn from the text that .A. researchers have concluded that eating chocolate can lead to better healthB.

Even so, viewers are usually warned in advance that they may find some of these scenes disturbing, so they can look away if they choose. But the men and women whose job is to record those scene s－the TV cameramen－have no such choice. It is their duty to witness the horrors of the world and record them, no matter how terrible and unpleasant they may be. Consequently, it is one of the most dangerous, exposed and emotionally taxing jobs the world has to offer.Today, the demand for their work is rising. The explosion of satellite broadcasting and 24-hour news in recent years has created an almost insatiable (贪得无厌的) demand for TV information. But major broadcasters and the TV news agencie s—such as Reuters and WT N－have never had enough staff to meet the worldwide demand for up-to-date pictures, so increasingly they turn to “freelance” TV cameramen.These freelance cameramen are independent operators tied to no particular organization. They will work for any company which hires them, be it for just a few hours or for several weeks in a war zone. But if the freelance cameraman is injured in the course of the job, the TV company is not responsible for him. The freelancer must survive on his own.TV will always need hard, vivid moving pictures which are fresh, but these companies feel uncomfortable with large numbers of employees on their books, explains Nick Growing, once foreign editor for Britain Channel 4 News and now a BBC news presenter.By hiring freelancers, they can buy in the skills they need only when they need them. It also enables them to contract out the risk, he says.56. TV news agencies turn to freelance cameramen in order to .A. save expense and avoid risksB. buy pictures which are the most stimulating to the sensesC. look for pictures that are of fine qualitiesD. get first-hand information and pictures57. The freelance cameramen .A. have better skills than other cameramenB. are tied to many TV news agenciesC. have to take tremendous risks in the course of workD. need to contract out risks of work for TV companies58. It is implied in the passage that .A. TV cameramen have to witness disasters and killing whether they like them or notB. TV cameramen are a special group of people who enjoy horrifying picturesC. TV cameramen should be given grater choice of workD. the development of TV resulted in the growing demand for TV cameramen’s work59. According to this passage, some major broadcasters and TV news agencies .A. have employed enough cameramenB. are not willing to employ many cameramenC. are very mean to freelancersC. are responsible for the freelancer if he is injured60. The author of this passage shows his the freelance cameramen.A. respect forB. sympathy toC. anger toD. admiration to。
