1. 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
In many businesses, computers have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, and do not make mistakes. And they are honest. Many banks say that their business is “untouched by human hands” and therefore safe. But they have no thought that the growing number of computer crimes (犯罪) show they can be used to steal.
Computer criminals (罪犯) don't use guns. And even if they are caught, it is hard to punish them because there is often no proof. A computer cannot remember who used it. It simply does what it is told. The head teller(出纳主管) at a New York City bank used a computer to steal more than one and a half billion dollars in just four years. No one noticed this because he moved the money from one account (账户) to another. Each time a customer whose money he had stolen questioned the balance in his account, the teller said it was a computer mistake, then replaced the missing money from someone else's account. This man was caught at last.
Some workers use the computer's power to punish their bosses they consider unfair. Recently, a large company fired its computer record assistant for reasons that were connected with her personal life rather than her job. She was given thirty days notice. In those thirty days, she stole all the company's computerized records.
Most computer criminals have been common workers. Now police wonder if this is “the tip of iceberg”. As one official says, “I have the feeling that there is more crime out there than we are catching. What we are seeing now is all so poorly done. I wonder what the real experts are doing—the ones who really know a computer works.”

The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive(具有创造性的) than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said, “Surfing the Internet at times helps increase workers' attention.”
“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,” Coker said on the university's website. “Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work, and as a result, increases productivity (生产效率),” he said.
According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. “Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their workers from watching videos, using social networking sites or shopping online,” said Coker. “That's not always a good idea.”
However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation(适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. “Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without.” he said.
(1)、What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show?A、People who surf the Internet are good workers. B、Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours. C、Surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases productivity. D、The Internet is becoming more and more important in people's life.(2)、According to Paragraph 3, Brent Coker would most probably agree that ______.A、the longer a person's mind rests, the better attention he will have B、surfing the Internet is the best way to increase productivity C、workers should have a long break during office hours D、workers should let their minds rest now and then(3)、The underlined word “block” in Paragraph 4 means “______”.A、prevent B、organize C、keep D、separate(4)、What can we infer from the last paragraph?A、Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity. B、Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity. C、Most people don't surf the Internet in moderation during office hours. D、People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.二、根据句意和汉语提示写出单词。
