Section A

Directions:

In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are

required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices

given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through

carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is

identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for

each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.

Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.

Many European countries have been making the shift to electric vehicles and

Germany has just stated that they plan to ban the sales of vehicles using

gasoline and diesel as fuel by 2030. The country is also planning to reduce its

carbon footprint by 80-95% by 2050, ___26___ a shift to green energy in the

country. Effectively, the ban will include the registration of new cars in the

country as they will not allow any gasoline ___27___ vehicle to be registered

after 2030.

Part of the reason this ban is being discussed and ___28___ is because

energy officials see that they will not reach their emissions goals by 2050 if

they do not ___29___ a large portion of vehicle emissions. The country is still

___30___ that it will meet its emissions goals, like reducing emissions by 40%

by 2020, but the ___31___ of electric cars in the country has not occurred as

fast as expected.

Other efforts to increase the use of electric vehicles include plans to

build over 1 million hybrid and electric car battery charging stations across

the country. By 2030, Germany plans on having over 6 million charging stations

___32___. According to the

International Business Times

, electric car sales are

expected to increase as Volkswagen is still recovering from its emissions

scandal.

There are ___33___ around 155,000 registered hybrid and electric vehicles

on German roads, dwarfed by the 45 million gasoline and diesel cars driving

there now. As countries continue setting goals of reducing emissions, greater

steps need to be taken to have a ___34___ effect on the surrounding

environment. While the efforts are certainly not ___35___, the results of such

bans will likely only start to be seen by generations down the line, bettering

the world for the future.

Apple’s Stance Highlights a More Confrontational Teach Industry

[A] The battle between Apple and law enforcement officials over unlocking a

terrorist’s smartphone is the culmination of a slow turning of the tables

between the technology industry and the United States government.

[B] After revelations by the former National Security Agency contractor Edward

J. Snowden in 2013 that the government both

cozied up to

(讨好) certain tech

companies and hacked into others to gain access to private data on an enormous

scale, tech giants began to recognize the United States government as a hostile

actor. But if the confrontation has crystallized in this latest battle, it may

already be heading toward a predictable conclusion: In the long run, the tech

companies are destined to emerge victorious.

[C] It may not seem that way at the moment. On the one side, you have the

United States government’s mighty legal and security apparatus fighting for

data of the most sympathetic sort: the secrets buried in a dead mass

murderer’s phone. The action stems from a federal court order issued on

Tuesday requiring Apple to help the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to

unlock an iPhone used by one of the two attackers who killed 14 people in San

Bernardino, California, in December.

[D] In the other corner is the world’s most valuable company, whose chief

executive, Timothy Cook, has said he will appeal the court’s order. Apple

argues that it is fighting to preserve a principle that most of us who are

addicted to our smartphones can defend: Weaken a single iPhone so that its

contents can be viewed by the American government and you risk weakening all

iPhones for any government intruder, anywhere.

[E] There will probably be months of legal confrontation, and it is not at all

clear which side will prevail in court, nor in the battle for public opinion

and legislative favor. Yet underlying all of this is a simple dynamic: Apple,

Google, Facebook and other companies hold most of the cards in this

confrontation. They have our data, and their businesses depend on the global

public’s collective belief that they will do everything they can to protect

that data.

[F] Any crack in that front could be fatal for tech companies that must operate

worldwide. If Apple is forced to open up an iPhone for an American law

enforcement investigation, what is to prevent it from doing so for a request

from the Russians or the Iranians? If Apple is forced to write code that lets

the FBI get into the Phone 5c used by Syed Rizwan Farook, the male attacker in

the San Bernardino attack, who would be responsible if some hacker got hold of

that code and broke into its other devices?
