Now get ready to answer the questions. You may use your notes to help you answer.
Why does the professor mention the movie War Games’!
Listen to part of a lecture in a computer science class.
Professor
All right, why don’t we get started here...how many of you own and can operate a computer? ... Two, four, six..., let’s see...nineteen; hmm, that’s quite a few of you. OK, well, we all know how popular...no, not just popular...how necessary business and family computers are becoming and how much a part of modern-day life they are now; and so today, I am going to talk about computers. But actually, I don’t intend to talk about the function and operation of computers, but about a problem that is both worrying and very dangerous: computer crime. Let’s look more closely at this modern crime.
One thing is certain; Computers and especially computer networks have created opportunities for crime that never existed before, and as a result, the police and justice departments are becoming increasingly concerned about the growing number of computer users who are gaining access to private or secret information. It’s a problem that is on the rise worldwide. Statistics are showing a trend toward more computer crimes every year.
As we all know, the information that passes through computer networks can be sensitive and dangerous if the wrong people get access to it. War Games, a 1980’s movie, illustrates this point very well. In War Games, a young, high school boy gains access to the United States’ computerized military defense system with the intention of playing a game, but ends up nearly starting a nuclear war. This theme is, of course, exaggerated...it is very unlikely that any one, much less a high school boy, could penetrate the U. S. military security system, which limits access to extremely sensitive networks within the government.
But the idea behind the movie is a disturbing one. People can and, in fact, are using their experience in operating computers to break into networks... and are causing a lot of inconveniences and, even worse, are committing crimes and exposing others to danger. The point is this: Computer crime is very real and dangerous.
Computer crime is tempting for two reasons: number one, some computer geniuses have trouble resisting the challenge. They just want to see if they can do it. And number two, computer crime sometimes has some very significant rewards.
Now get ready to answer the questions. You may use your notes to help you answer.
23. What is the talk mainly about?
Listen again to part of the lecture. Then answer the question.
Professor
All right, why don’t we get started here...how many of you own and can operate a computer? ... Two, four, six... let’s see... nineteen; hmm, that’s quite a few of you. OK, well, we all know how popular...no, not just popular...how necessary business and family computers are becoming and how much a part of modern-day life they are now....
24. Why does the professor say this?

25. What has created opportunities for computer crimes?
26. What kinds of computer users are police becoming increasingly concerned about?
27. Why does the professor mention the movie War Games?
28. According to the talk, what can NOT be concluded?
选项
A、To illustrate the expertise in computer operation.
B、To give an example of the computer’s functions.
C、To show how a high school boy accessed military information.
D、To prove the danger of a wrong person accessing a computer network.
答案
D
解析
本题为语用理解中的功能题,要求考生能弄清楚讲话者的目的。题目问:教授提及影片War Games的目的是什么?考生应把握该例子前的观点句,即教授在提到War Games之前说“the information that passes through computer networks can be sensitive and dangerous if thewrong people get access to it(通过电脑网络传输的信息,若被坏人获取,则会变得敏感并具有危险性)”。因此,选项D为正确答案。
