问题     When people talk about the digital divide, they usually mean the【B1】______between people who are benefiting from the information revolution, and those who through lack of 【B2】______ or money are 【B3】______ out. But at a United Nations conference in Brazil that concluded on April 19th, a different (though related) sort of divide was on 【B4】______, and ten days’ chatter by over 100 countries failed to 【B5】______ it.
    If there was one thing on which almost everybody agreed, it was that criminals are【B6】______computer technology much faster 【B7】______ most governments are learning to foil them. Rich countries say they are 【B8】______ by fraudsters, pornographers and hackers operating【B9】______poor places where they will never be caught—because their "【B10】______" governments can’ t or won’ t stop them.
    One response is the Budapest Convention, an accord【B11】______at the Council of Europe in 2001, and ratified by the United States in 2006. One of its【B12】______is to let authorities in one country give【B13】______, at least electronically, to criminals in another.
    But Russia has【B14】______the principle of "transborder access", especially since 2000, when American agents hacked【B15】______the computers of two Russians who were【B16】______American banks.【B17】______, Russia is backing a UN treaty which would be respectful of borders while also giving police more powers to shut down websites【B18】______in "propaganda." Many countries like that idea—but not enough to push it【B19】______. For now, the only【B20】______are the criminals.
【B10】
选项 A、assistant
B、evil
C、incompetent
D、host
答案D
解析 考查词语辨析。前文提到：富裕国家认为他们受到了来自落后国家的诈骗犯、色情图片发布者和黑客的困扰。但是在这些国家，这些不法分子永远不会被逮捕。assistant“有帮助的，辅助的”，暗含了他们的国家是帮凶，不符合语境，故排除；evil“邪恶的”，语气太强烈；incompetent“无能力的，无法胜任的”，不用于描述国家；host“主人”，既表明了诈骗犯、色情图片发布者和黑客的身份，又暗含了富裕国家对贫穷国家不逮捕他们的指责之意，符合语境。故正确答案为D．host。
