　　1、    Since 1984, Philadelphia has been cleaning up its act. One by one, graffiti-covered walls are being changed into outdoor art. So far, more than 1,800 murals (壁画) have been painted. Philadelphia now has more murals than any other American city.
　　The walls that were once ugly with graffiti (涂鸦) are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art, thanks to the Mural Arts Program (MAP). Its work makes schools and public places attractive, and its citizens very proud. The program began as part of Philadelphia's Anti-Graffiti Network. Jane Golden is the MAP's artistic director. “When people ask me what our program is about,” she says, “I answer them with one word: hope”. Each year, the MAP offers youth art programs and workshops. Some one­time graffiti writers even help paint MAP murals.
　　The MAP's work, says Golden, is all about developing a sense of community. When a neighborhood requests a mural, the MAP works with the people there to develop a message. Some messages have been “Safe Streets”, “Love and Care”, and “Peace Walk”.
　　The MAP receives up to 50 requests for murals each week. Last year, the workers painted 140 murals.
　　“The making of a mural enters people's collective memory as an extraordinary, pleasant moment in neighborhood history.” says Golden, who began as a muralist in Los Angeles.
　　1.What can be the best title for the text?
　　A.Love, from Graffiti Writers to Muralists.

　　D.Attracting more visitors.
　　3.How does the MAP decide on the message for a mural?
　　A.By having discussions with people in the community.
　　B.By seeking advice from the city government.
　　C.By learning from the young graffiti writers.
　　D.By studying the history of the city.
　　4.Which of the following words best describes the work of the MAP?

　　2、    In fairy tales, it's usually the princess that needs protecting. At Google in Silicon Valley, the princess is the one defending the castle. Parisa Tabriz is a 31-year-old with perhaps the most unique job title in engineering- “Google Security Princess”. Her job is to hack into the most popular web browser (浏览器) on the planet, trying to find weaknesses in the system before the “black hats” do. To defeat Google's attackers, Tabriz must firstly think like them.
　　Tabriz's role has evolved dramatically in the eight years since she first started working at Google. Back then, the young graduate from Illinois University was one of 50 security engineers---today there are over 500.
　　Cybercrime (网络犯罪) has come a long way in the past decade - from the Nigerian Prince Scam to credit card theft. Tabriz's biggest concern now is the people who find bugs in Google's software, and sell the information to governments or criminals. To fight against this, the company has set up a Vulnerability Rewards Program, paying anywhere from $100 to $ 20,000 for reported mistakes.
　　It's a world away from Tabriz's computer-free childhood home in Chicago. The daughter of an Iranian-American doctor father, and Polish-American nurse mother, Tabriz had little contact with computers until she started studying engineering at college. Gaze across a line-up of Google security staff today and you'll find women like Tabriz are few and far between
　　(稀少的) ---though in the last few years she has hired more female tech geniuses. She admits there's an obvious gender disequilibrium in Silicon Valley.
　　Funnily enough, during training sessions Tabriz first asks new colleagues to hack into not a computer, but a vending machine. Tabriz's job is as much about technological know-how (专门知识) as understanding the psychology of attackers.
　　1.What can we learn about Tabriz from the passage?
　　A.She was the first female engineer at Google.
　　B.She must think differently so as to defeat the attackers.
　　C.Her job relates to not only technology but also psychology.
　　D.Her frequent contact with computers in childhood benefits her a lot.
　　2.Why has Google set up a Vulnerability Rewards Program?
　　A.To protect Google against cybercrime.
　　B.To monitor the normal operation of Google.
　　C.To help the government locate the cybercriminals.
　　D.To raise people's awareness of personal information safety.
　　3.What does the underlined word “disequilibrium” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
　　A.Imbalance.
　　B.Preference.
　　C.Difference.
　　D.Discrimination.
　　4.Which of the following could be the best title of this passage?
　　A.What leads to cybercrime
　　B.The "Security Princess" who guards Google
　　C.Measures taken by Google to protect its users
　　D.How to become an excellent security engineer
