Yet much had happened _36_. As was discussed before, it was not _37_ the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic _38_, following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the _39_ of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution _40_ up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading _41_ through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures _42_ the 20th-century world of the motor car and the air plane. Not everyone sees that process in a right way. Nevertheless, it is _43_ to do so.It is generally recognized, _44_, that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century, _45_ by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s, radically changed the process, _46_ its impact on the media was not immediately _47_. As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became “personal” too, as well as institutional, with display becoming _48_ and storage capacity _49_. They were thought of, like people, _50_ generations, with the distance between generations much _51_.It was within the computer age that the term “information society” began to be widely used to describe the _52_ within which we now live. The communications revolution has _53_ both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been _54_ views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. “Benefits” have been weighed _55_ “harmful” outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult.36.A. betweenB. beforeC. sinceD. later37.A. afterB. byC. duringD. until38.A. meansB. methodC. mediumD. measure39.A. processB. companyC. lightD. form40.A. gatheredB. speededC. worked D. picked41.A. onB. outC. overD. off42.A. ofB. forC. beyond D. into43.A. importantB. difficultC. honestD. concrete44.A. indeedB. henceC. howeverD. therefore45.A. broughtB. followedC. stimulated.

So we say: “Love will find a way.” As smile is a facial expression showing pleasure, affection, and friendliness, it is the commonest way to show our good will perfectly without saying anything. A Chinese saying runs: “never hit a person who is smiling at you.” It is a time-proven fact that the smile is a language all its own a universal languageunderstood by the people of every nation in the world. We may not speak the same tongue as our foreign neighbors, but we smile in the same tongue. We need no interpreter for thus expressing love, happiness, or good will.One day while shopping in a small town in southern California, it was my misfortune to be approached by a clerk whose personality contradicted mine. He seemed most unfriendly and not at all concerned about my intended purchase. I bought nothing, and marched angrily out of the store. My anger toward that grew with each step. Outside, standing at the corner, was a dark-complexion young man in his early twenties. His expressive brown eyes met and held mine, and in the next instant a beautiful, dazzling smile covered his face. I gave in immediately. The magnetic power of that shining smile drove away all bitterness within me, and I found the muscles in my own face happily responding. “Beautiful day, isnt it?” I remarked, in passing. Then, suddenly something inside me sent me turning back. “I really owe you a debt of gratitude,” I said softly. His smile deepened, but he made no attempt to answer. A Mexican woman and two men were standing nearby. The woman stepped forward and eyed me inquiringly. “Carlos, he no speak English,” she volunteered. “You want I should tell him something?” In that moment I felt transformed. Carlos smile had made a big person of me. My friendliness and good will toward all mankind stood ten feet tall. “Yes,” my reply was enthusiastic and sincere, “tell him I said Thank you!” “Thank you?” The woman seemed slightly puzzled. I gave her arm a friendly pat as I turned to leave. “Just tell him that,” I insisted. “Hell understand. I am sure!” Oh, what a smile can do! Although I have never seen that young man again, I shall never forget the lesson he taught me that morning. From that day on, I became smile conscious, and I practice that diligently, anywhere and everywhere, with everybody. When I got excited in traffic, taking the rightofway (公路用地) from the other car with my stupid mistake, Id smile and shrug my shoulders apologetically. This action on my part would always draw a goodnatured smile in return. If the other fellow was at fault and if I could remember my resolution in time! hed get a broad smile of understanding. This took a bit of doing at first. Ill admit it wasnt always easy, but it was fun. The results were sometimes amazing. Many times, a broad, friendly smile would completely turn aside illfeeling and tension. Im wondering now how many tragic accidents could be avoided on our overcrowded highways, if every driver remembered to smile!59. The author got angry while shopping one day because .A. of the clerks unfriendliness and lack of concern B. of her misfortuneC. she failed to purchase what she intendedD. a darkcomplexion young man laughed at her60. From the conversation between the author and the Mexican woman, we can infer that the woman .A. was welleducated but unwilling to help othersB. was able to speak EnglishC. knew some English and was ready to help othersD. was familiar with the young man61. In the authors opinion, if all people remembered to smile when driving, .A. many traffic accidents could be avoidedB. they would receive a good natural smile in returnC. they could get a broad smile of understandingD. they wouldnt feel any tension62. The best title for this passage could be .A. The Art of SmilingB. The Universal LanguageC. The Power of LoveD. The Magic Power of FriendshipCWhen we worry about who might be spying on our private lives, we usually think about the Federal agents. But the private sector outdoes the government every time. Its Linda Tripp, not the FBI, who is facing charges under Marylands laws against secret telephone taping. Its our banks, not the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), that pass our private financial data to telemarketing firms.Consumer activists are pressing Congress for better privacy laws without much result so far. The legislators lean toward letting business people track our financial habits virtually at will.As an example of whats going on, consider U.S. Bancorp, which was recently sued for deceptive practices by the state of Minnesota. According to the lawsuit, the bank supplied a telemarketer called Member Works with sensitive customer data such as names, phone numbers, bank-account and credit-card numbers, social security numbers, account balances and credit limits.With these customer lists in hand, Member Works started dialing for dollars-selling dental plans, videogames, computer software and other products and services. Customers who accepted a “free trial offer” had 30 days to cancel. If the deadline passed, they were charged automatically through their bank or credit-card accounts. U.S. Bancorp collected a share of the revenues.Customers were doubly deceived, the lawsuit claims. They didnt know that the bank was giving account numbers to Member Works. And if customers asked, they were led to think the answer was no.The state sued Member Works separately for deceptive selling. The company denies that it did anything wrong. For its part, U.S. Bancorp settled without admitting any mistakes. But it agreed to stop exposing its customers to nonfinancial products sold by outside firms. A few top banks decided to do the same. Many other banks will still do business with Member Works and similar firms.And banks will still be mining data from your account in order to sell you financial products, including things of little value, such as credit insurance and credit-card protection plans.You have almost no protection from businesses that use your personal accounts for profit. For example, no federal law shields “transaction and experience” information-mainly the details of your bank and credit-card accounts. Social Security numbers are for sale by private firms. Theyve generally agreed not to sell to the public. But to businesses, the numbers
