It was after returning from China and witnessing how successful it had been that I reached the decision to become an acupuncturist myself. I was lucky to discover that the town where I lived had a famous college of traditional acupuncture.Alternative medicine such as acupuncture is particularly important for me because I firmly believe that it works on the level of body, mind and spirit. This is very different from Western medicine which is supposed to work only on the body. When a person is ill, it is believed that there’s something in their life which is putting their energy levels out of balance. What alternative therapies (疗法) try to do is help to gradually push that energy back into balance. The result is that any disease present might naturally disappear as it cannot survive when energies are balanced.I’ve treated a wide range of people for various conditions, for ex ample people suffering from stress and anxiety. To acquire a qualification in acupuncture, I took a course that lasted three years. I had to go to the college about one weekend in three. I also had a large amount of homework and practical work to do, which I did two or three evenings a week. This involved locating points on different people. As you can imagine, this isn’t straightforward as people are of different sizes and have differently shaped bodies.In the future I hope to set up an alternative health clinic which will involve myself as an acupuncturist but perhaps other people as well. I’d like to work with people who provide treatments such as rubbing (按摩) and pressing people’s feet in a special way to help them relax and feel well. I’d like to set i t up somewhere in the countryside, where people could feel free from the stress of life.24.

What do the underlined words “other people” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Other acupuncturists.B. Other alternative therapists.C. Other doctors who use Western medicine.D. Other people who want to escape from stress.CThe biggest danger facing airlines nowadays may not be a terrorist with a gun, but the man with the portable computer in business class. In the past 16 years, pilots have reported well over 100 incidents that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference (电磁干扰). The source of this interference remains not proved, but increasingly, experts are pointing the blame at portable electronic devices such as portable computers, radio and cassette players and mobile telephones.RTCA, an organization which advises the aviation (航空) industry, has suggested that all airlines ban such devices from being used during “ critical, stages of flight particularly take-off and landing. Some experts have gone further, calling for a total ban during all flights. Currently, rules on using these devices are left up toindividual airlines. And although some airlines prevent passengers from using such equipment during take-off and landing, most are unwilling to carry out a total ban, given that many passengers want to work during flight.The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic fields might affect an aircraft’s computers. Experts know that portable devices send out radiatio n which affects those wavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication. But, because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory, they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not.The fact that aircraft may be fragile to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio systems in order to damage navigation equipment. As worrying, though, is the passenger who can’t hear the instructions to turn off his radio because the music’s too loud.28. What is said about the over 100 aircraft incidents in the past 16 years?A. They may have been caused by the damage to the radio systems.B. They may have taken place during take-off and landing.C. They were proved to have been caused by the pa ssengers’ portable computers.D. They were suspected to have resulted from electromagnetic interference.29. Why is it difficult to predict the possible effects of electromagnetic fields on an airplane’s computers?A. Because it is extremely dangerous to conduct such research on an airplane.B. Because it remains a mystery what wavelengths are liable (有责任的) to be interfered with.C. Because research scientists have not been able to produce the same effects in labs.D. Because experts lack adequate equipment to do such research.30. Few airlines want to perform a total ban on their passengers using electronic devices because .A. they don’t believe there is such a danger as radio interferenceB. the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be provedC. most passengers refuse to take a plane which bans the use of radio and cassette playersD. they have other effective safety measures to fall back on31. The passage is mainly about .A. a new rule for all airlinesB. the disadvantages of electronic devicesC. a possible cause of aircraft incidentsD. effective safety measures for air flightDJust how much does the Constitution (宪法) protect your digital data? The Supreme Court will now consider whether police can search the contents of a mobile phone without a warrant (授权令) if the phone is on or around a person during an arrest.California has asked the justices to restore the practice that the police may search through the contents of suspects’ smartphones at the time of their arrest. It is hard, the state says, for judges to assess the implications of new and rapidly changing technologies.The justices would be careless if they followed California’s advice. They should start by rejecting California’s weak argument that exploring the co ntents of a smartphone is similar to say, going through a suspect’s wallet. The court has ruled that police don’t offend against the Fourth Amendment (修正案) when they go through the wallet, of an arrestee without a warrant. In fact, exploring one, s smartphone is more like entering his or her home. A smartphone may contain an arrestee’s reading history, financial history, medical history and comprehensive records of recent correspondence.Americans should take steps to protect their own digital privacy and should avoid putting important information in smartphones. But keeping sensitive information on these devices is increasingly a requirement of normal life. Citizens still have a right to expect private documents to remain private and protected by the Consti tution’s prohibition on unreasonable searches.In many cases, it would not be very difficult for authorities to obtain a warrant to search through phone contents. They could still trump (打出王牌) the Fourth Amendment protections when facing severe and dangerous circumstances, such as thethreat of immediate harm, and they could take reasonable measures to ensure that phone data are not deleted or altered while a warrant is on the way. The justices, though, may want to allow room for police to cite situations where they are entitled to more flexibility.But the justices should not swallow California’s argument whole. New technology sometimes demands fresh applications of the Constitution’s protections. Orin Kerr, a law professor, compares the explosion and accessibility of digital information in the 21st century with the establishment of automobile use as a digital necessity of life in the 20th. At that time, the justices had to explain new rules for the new personal domain (领域) of cars. Similarly, the justices must sort out how the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution applies to digital information now.32. The Supreme Court will work out whether, during an arrest, it is legal to .A. search for suspects’ mobile phones without a warrantB. check suspects, phone contents without being authorizedC. prevent suspects from deleting their phone contentsD. prohibit suspects from using their mobile phones33. The author believes that exploring one’s phone content is comparable to .A. getting into one’s resi denceB. handing one’s historical recordsC. scanning one’s correspondencesD. going through one’s wallet34. In Paragraph 4 and 5, the author shows his concern that .A. principles are hard to be clearly expressedB. the court is giving police less room for actionC. phones are used to store sensitive informationD. citizens’ privacy is not effectively protected35. Or in Kerr’s comparison is quoted to indicate that .A. the Constitution should be carried out flexiblyB. new technology also requires reinterpretation of the ConstitutionC. California’s argument goes against principles of the ConstitutionD. principles of the Constitution should never be altered第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
