答案详解:
 
Teen hacker hired (P2)
1. D。由第三段“Nicholas, with a famous nickname “Comex”, is the teenage hacker (黑客) behind the jailbreaking site JailbreakMe.com.”可知D正确。
2. A。由第二段“It allows users to gain full access to the operating system and download additional (额外的) materials that are unavailable through the official Apple App Store.”可知A正确。
3. C。由下文“Facebook recently hired iPhone jailbreaker George “Geohot” Hotz as a full-time employee.”可知,黑客也因为他们的技术而被一些网站与电子产品公司所看中,所以embracing在这里表示“接纳,采用”。
4. B。由倒数第二段“On the other hand, because of a hacker’s former behavior, many people doubt their morals (道德). Can the company trust them with its valuable assets (资产)? And can someone who is so used to working alone in the dark fit into a new role within a company?”可知B正确。

Smelling electrical smells (P5)
1. C。第二段第二句话谈到了Guiana dolphins have a new kind of sense: they can detect (探测) electrical fields.下文进一步谈到了科学家通过实验证明是什么原因使得圭亚那海豚拥有电场感应能力,故选C
2. B。由第二段第一句话可知A项的hearing应该是smell才对;由第三段和第四段的最后一句话可以推知B正确;由第三段第一句话“All living things generate (产生) electrical fields”可知C项不对;由第五段“Their electricity-detecting ability may come in handy (迟早有用) when they try to find fish to eat in this murky (浑浊的) water.”可知D不对,帮助圭亚那海豚成功捕鱼的是它们的电场感应能力。
3. A。既然上文提到了视力起不了作用,那么它们的电场感应能力就起了作用,所以这里come in handy相当于be useful。
4. C。由最后一段得出的结论可知C项正确。
