One of the most widely used location services is Google Maps. When someone uses Google Maps, information about times and locations is recorded and stored.Google also uses tracking tools with other services. Weather apps, for example, are designed to identify a users location to provide local weather information. Even some Google Internet searches can result in the collection of information about exactly where a person was when the search was made.Google says it collects the data to improve users localized experiences. But such practices have also raised privacy concerns. Privacy activists have called on Google and other major technology companies to make it easier for users to turn off location services if they do not want to be tracked. In some ways, Google is clear about asking permission to use location information. For instance, Google Maps will seek approval from a user to give the app access to locations. If a user agrees to let Google collect location information over time, Google Maps will show this history in a “timeline” that shows the persons daily movements.Google also has a “Location History” setting. The company says any user can turn off Location History at any time. And when Location History is turned off for a users account, it is turned off for all equipment linked to that Google account. But the AP (Associated Press) found this does not appear to be true, finding that Google continued to save location history even if a user had turned off Location History.Google states users can stop the saving of all location markers by turning off another setting, however, which is not clearly identified as being connected to location tracking. The setting is called “Web and App Activity”. It stores different kinds of information from Google apps and websites to a users Google account.8. Why does the author mention Weather apps?A. To advise people to stop using them.B. To stress Google services are widely used.C. To prove Google collects users data illegally.D. To show many apps can track a users location.9. What is the voice from the privacy activists?A. Users should use the Internet less.B. Google should stop tracking users.C. Google should respect users privacy.D. Google should turn off location services.10. What does the author indicate in paragraph 4?A. The Location History setting is difficult to find.B. The AP asks Google to remove Location History.C. Turning off Location History can avoid being trackedD. What Google announces is hardly consistent with the fact.11. Which can best summarize the passage?A. Using Google puts you into a dangerous state.B. Google services urgently need to get improved.C. Google still tracks you with Location History off.D. Web and App Activity has endangered peoples life.【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11.

Mediators are advised to listen attentively, avoid favoring the ideas of one party, and make both sides feel at ease. Surprisingly, new research that my colleagues and I conducted suggests that, to effectively help people settle their conflicts, mediators should adopt an hostile (敵對(duì)的) attitude rather than a calming one. A hostile mediator, we find, brings better results than a nice one.Why would adding more negativity to an already hostile situation prove beneficial? Consider how parents typically react when they cant get their children to stop quarreling: “I dont care who started it both of you, go to your rooms!” At first sight, a calm mediator seems likely to be more effective. But as anyone with brothers or sisters knows parents, seemingly unsympathetic treatment of the situation can have an unusual effect. Children who were troubling each other just now suddenly become more reasonable due to their unkind parents. In our research, we created situations in which pairs of negotiators were part of a heated conflict. In some cases, the mediator had a “nice” approach calm and polite. In others, he was hostile aggressive and somewhat rude. Across different types of conflicts, we found that negotiators were more willing and able to reach an agreement in the presence of a hostile mediator than in the presence of a nice one.The main result of the test is not that hostility pays off. In fact, recent research has documented the social costs of negative behavior. For example, being the target of rude behavior reduces peoples performance on a variety of tasks. Other research shows the social benefits of positive behavior. People are more likely to close deals and become future business partners.Even with the widespread social benefits of positive behavior and costs of negative behavior, hostility can pay off in certain situations.12. What can we learn about parents settlement of conflicts in paragraph 2?A. Its calming and wise.B. Its unfriendly but effective.C. Its commonly adopted.D. It harms family relationship.13. How does the author support his viewpoints?A. By presenting facts.B. By making comparison.C. By analyzing causes and effects.D. By giving examples and experimenting.14.

But limit it. When you give more than 80 percent, the person you are communicating with will feel uncomfortable. _17_. The magic number is 60 percent, or a little more than half. Give them eye contact, and then slightly glance away.Secondly, crossing your arms may mean youre distant, anxious, defensive, or stubborn. But arm crossing has its advantages, too. A study found adults who crossed their arms and then were asked hard math questions were more likely to keep trying to solve them than those who kept their hands on a table. So the next time you meet someone with a tough question and they cross their arms, dont assume youve made them mad. _18_.Making a habit of smiling and laughing during conversations with other people can result in positive outcomes._19_. Evidence shows that smiles and laughter build the immune system, defend the body against illness and disease, attract more friends and extend life. This is part of the reason why being funny or having the ability to make others laugh can be found attractive by so many people._20_? If you sit with your legs crossed, you may feel confident and want to dominate (俯視). When you sit in this position youre opening up your “power zone”.
