For questions 1-7, choose the best from the four choices markedA.,B.,C., andD.. For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage. Computer Viruses Any computer connected to the Internet faces a daunting range of electronic threats. Perhaps the biggest single threat to any computer is the humble software bug. Seemingly harmless programming errors can be exploited to force entry into a computer and also provide the weak spots that allow computer worms and viruses to spread. Many software bugs will simply cause a computer to crash. But an expert programmer can sometimes figure out how to make a computer malfunction in a creative way, so that it provides access to secure parts of a system, or shares protected data. When a software weakness is revealed, it is often a race against the clock to apply the correct software patch before an attacker can convert the bug into an "exploit" that can be used to cause major damage. Viruses and Worms A computer virus is a program that spreads between computers by hiding itself within a seemingly innocent-document or application. A worm, on the other hand, is a program that replicates (复制) and travels without "infecting" anything else on a system. Many modern specimens of malevolent (恶意的) code, however, use a mixture of tricks to cheat their way onto computer systems, blurring the line between worms and viruses. The terms are now often used interchangeably. The first worms appeared in the 1970s and spread slowly between computers connected to the same network. They simply displayed an annoying message on the screen of each infected machine. The first computer virus, called Elk Cloner, was written in 1982 and infected computers via floppy disks. Trojans and Zombies But viruses and worms no longer just provide a way for ill willed hackers to gain bad reputation. Today's viral code can contaminate computers at lightning speed, spreading via e-mail, peer-to-peer file-sharing networks and even instant messaging programs. The most successful ones cause serious damage, forcing companies around the globe to close down while infected computers are cleaned up. A string of recent specimens have been designed to snatch passwords or credit card information and install programs that can be used to remotely control infected machines. These programs are known as Trojan horses. There is evidence that virus writers can earn large amounts of money by leasing access to networks of compromised computers--often referred to as "botnets". These groups of remote controlled "zombies" have been used to extort money from websites, by threatening to crash them with a denial-of-service (Dos) attack. This involves overloading a server with bogus page requests, so that real messages cannot get through. Spam, Spam, Spam Spammers have also begun using botnets to forward unwanted bulk e-mail advertising, or spare, through scores of zombie PCs. This makes it far more difficult for spam hunters to block the messages at source and catch the criminals. Once considered a fairly minor problem, spam is rapidly spiraling out of control, and much more than half of all e-mail messages are now thought to consist of unwanted advertising messages. To combat computer scientists' best efforts to stem the tide of junk e-mail, the spammers have had to become more cunning and sophisticated. More recently, spim (spam by instant messenger) and spit (spam by Internet telephony) have joined the fray. Phishing Spam's more sinister cousin is the phishing e-mail. This is a con trick that arrives as an e-mail and tries to trick a recipient into handing over money or sensitive personal information like their bank account details or a username and password. The simplest phishing tricks try to cheat a target into sending money as part of a get-rich-quick scheme. But phishing tricksters are also getting more devious and recent scams pose as customer service e-mails and send users to false banking or commercial websites where they are invited to "re-enter" their account information. Some genuine sites have even proven vulnerable to software glitches that can be exploited to capture information from regular users. Phishing is especially threatening because it can be used to steal a person's digital identity. Spyware Along with spam and phishing, spyware represents the third of an unhappy trinity of Internet pests. These threatening and secret programs typically find their way onto a computer system alongside another, often free, software application, although some can also exploit software bugs to get onto a machine. The programs are used to serve up unwanted adverts, change system settings and gather information on a user's online behavior for marketing purposes. Hackers The term "computer hacker" was first coined in the 1960s and originally meant someone capable of developing an ingenious solution to a programming problem. But the phrase has since fallen into disrepute, entering the popular vocabulary as a term for a programmer with criminal intent. The earliest "criminal" hackers were in fact relatively harmless, interested in testing the boundaries of their knowledge and their ability to get around security measures. They mainly performed innocuous pranks, for example employing low-tech tricks to get free calls through the US phone networks. There are many tools in the modem hacking kit, including network scanners, packet sniffers, root kits and decompilers. But "social engineering"--for example, putting a particularly enticing message in an e-mail header to encourage people to open it--and even search engines can also be useful weapons for the hacker. Computer Crime As the number of computers networks has grown, so have the possibilities for more serious misuse. And, as money increasingly becomes a digital commodity, the world has seen the emergence of serious computer criminals. Criminal gangs have also started to get in on the action, attracted by the huge quantities of money now spent online every day. There is evidence that unscrupulous experts can also earn serious money from crime business group by breaking into computer systems, writing viruses and creating phishing scams. And it is not just ordinary desktop computers that are under threat. Governments, banks and critical infrastructure can also be brought to a standstill by an expert armed only with a laptop computer and a net connection. Mobile Menace The biggest new target for computer hackers is the mobile device. Virus writers are already experimenting with code designed for smart phones and experts predict more may be on the way, while hackers are also looking at ways to crack handheld devices. While the Interact has transformed global communication beyond recognition, the arms race between those intent on harnessing its power for criminal purposes and those tasked with preventing them has only just begun. 2、 What is the biggest single threat to any computer?

But 37 development takes place worldwide. Nigeria, for example, is the largest oil producer in Africa and the eleventh largest producer in the world. Russia is the world's second largest 38 of oil and the top 39 of natural gas. In 1960, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela 40 the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Its 41 may have reached a high point during the oil crisis 42 to the 1973 Arab-Israeli war. Arab oil producers 43 the United States, Western Europe and Japan because of their support for Israel. Since then, new discoveries and increased production in areas including countries of the former Soviet Union have provided more oil. Today OPEC has twelve members. The newest is Angola, which joined in 2007. High oil prices have brought new attention to OPEC. Its members produce about forty percent of the world's oil. But two of the world's top three oil exporters, Russia and Norway, are not OPEC members. National oil companies are 44 to control about eighty percent of the world's oil supply. 45 .

Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) Section A Directions: In this section, there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2. Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage. Everyone who loves chocolate knows that to get a chocolate out of a box demands a considerable amount of unpacking: the box has to be taken out of its paper bag; the plastic wrapper has to be torn off, the lid opened and the packing paper inside removed; the chocolate itself then has to be unwrapped from its own piece of paper. Similarly a pot of face cream comes surrounded by layers of paper, wedged (挤进) inside a cardboard box, and the whole thing wrapped tightly in plastic. It is not only luxuries which are wrapped in this way. With so many goods now produced centrally and sold in supermarkets it is becoming increasingly difficult to buy anything from nails to potatoes that is not already done up in plastic or paper. The wrapper itself is of no interest to the shopper, who usually throws it away immediately. Useless wrapping accounts for much of the 31 pounds in weight of rubbish put out by the average London household each week. So why is it done? Some of it, like the wrapping on meat, is necessary, but most of the rest is simply competitive selling. This is stupid. Packaging is using up scarce energy and raw materials and ruining our environment. One big firm reports that its glass, aluminum and paper have all gone up by 30 percent in the last couple of months. While plastic has increased by 50 percent and all these prices are still rising. This seems as yet to have had surprisingly little effect on the packaging practice of manufacturers. Little research is being carried out on the costs in energy and materials of other possible types of packaging. Just how practical is it, for instance, for local authorities to save waste paper and remanufacture it as egg boxes? Would it be cheaper to plant another forest to produce new paper? One reason for the unorganized behavior of everyone concerned is probably the varied nature of the packaging industry. So many people, with so many different interests of their own, are affected that it is extremely hard to reach any agreement on what should be done. What is worse, packagers may not realize that preserving forests and preventing waste is of their concern. 48、 Why is it very hard to get a chocolate or face cream out of its box? 49、 Why do the shoppers throw the wrapper away immediately? 50、 The author thinks the wrapping, except that on meat or the alike, is only for the competitive selling. The author thinks this idea is______. 51、 Too much useless packaging is not only exhausting precious energy and raw materials but also______. 52、 The reason for the unorganized behavior of everyone concerned this issue is probably______. Section B Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices markedA.,B.,C., andD.. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Passage One I often hear people say that the lack of women in positions of political leadership is an issue that pales next to world crises-global terrorism, fragile economies, inadequate health care and troubled schools. They see no connection between the frightening situations we're in and the fact that few women sit at the table to determine the solutions. This fundamental imbalance, with men running the world and women mostly spectators, is not a trivial detail. It is the problem. It is also the one solution we have not tried on and the one most likely to work. This is not just me talking. Three decades of research in state legislatures, universities, and international public policy centers have proven beyond doubt that women, children, and men all benefit when women are in leadership. Broader social legislation, benefiting everyone, is more likely to pass if women are in office. We know the power of women as peacemakers in the world from scores of stories about their effectiveness at negotiation, from Ireland to Norway to South Africa and beyond. We can ill afford to use only half our talent, when we know for a fact that today's complicated challenges demand more than one vision. It's time for real and permanent power sharing, for real and permanent change-women ruling side by side with men, allowing their voices to rise with different solutions and allowing men to think outside of the masculine box. In this way, we get fresh eyes and fresh solutions from both genders, applied to both old, durable problems and to new, frightening ones. This is not a call to move power from the fingers of men and turn it all over to women. Together we can create a different world, shifting the burden from male shoulders and allowing the variety of thought and life experience to transform our actions--perhaps bringing a greater peace, perhaps allowing men to be better fathers, perhaps providing a new pattern for our security. It's not easy to get there. Those in power rarely let go without a fight, even if they would benefit by doing so. For women to truly gain the leadership roles, we must be insistent and persistent. We must enlist our many male allies. We must let it be known that we are ready to lead, that in fact we demand it as a birthright. If we think creatively, if we use our community resource, if we support women who say they want to lead, if we use our voices and our votes to get there, we will achieve the transformation of power. 53、 What is the present situation of leadership in the world? A. Leadership is totally under control of the male. B. Women share half of the leadership with the men. C. Men lead the world and women often are spectators. D. Lack of women political leaders is the biggest problem. 54、 If women are in the political leadership, ______. A. the world will be more complicated B. the world will be more hostile because men are unhappy C. the world will be much more harmonious D. it will be helpful to everyone, excluding men 55、 Why do we need more women involved in the political leadership? A. This is the women's natural right. B. If women have the leadership, more people will get benefits from it. C. Women are usually good at negotiation. D. Men have enjoyed the leadership too long. What is the author's attitude towards women's leadership? 56、 A. Neutral. B. Indifferent. C. Supportive. D. Optimistic. 57、 It can be inferred from the passage that the author mainly concerns that______. A. female leaders can change the course of our political and economic future B. who will benefit most when the political power is controlled by women C. why the political leadership of women is one kind of world crisis D. the ways in which women can obtain the leadership in the future Passage Two Professor Kumar Bhatt, founder and head of Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMC., and Rob Meakin, a personnel director at Marconi, have developed a partnership to train engineers and managers to become e-literate. The New Knowledge Partnership will include a team of 40 Marconi manegers in what Professor Bhatt calls electronic engineering management or E2. A wide range of engineering and non-engineering companies has expressed interest in these exciting programs. Professor Bhatt believes that e-commerce is changing the business environment to a huge extent. Many chief executives do not understand the power of the new technologies and, in some cases, are actually resisting change. He says that "As long as enough industry leaders realize its potential benefits, e-business will make possible a second productivity revolution in Britain. This could take the economy close to eliminating the still substantial competitiveness gap with its main rivals. Obviously the last five years in the US there has been a 30% improvement in manufacturing sector productivity because of information technology. In Britain we can achieve more than that and successful e-business will be worth billions to the UK economy." Already Britain makes more use of computer-aided design and manufacture (CAD/CAM) and management information technology system than other European countries, and has a government that actively promotes e-business. But, observes Professor Bhatt, Britain has never used technology as a growth driver. "The thing about electronic engineering management is that you can keep your legacy systems; you just need to link those systems with an information engine. At the touch of a button it will allow project managers to see the status of a project, identify problems precisely and make virtually immediate decisions based on information that will be much more complete than in the past." The E2 program is the result of an alliance by the Warwick Manufacturing Group with America's leading e-commerce study center, Carnegie Mellon. The latter will be responsible for training many of the Marconi managers in America, where the group has half its business. In Britain, Professor Bhatt has liked up with Sun Microsystems, Oracle and Parametric Technology, to set up a multi-million pound E2 design and manufacturing center at the university which will be used for training and research. Professor Bhatt believes that e-commerce is changing business to such an extent that WMG is likely to be renamed Warwick Electronic Manufacturing Group. But, he warns: "The move to globalize because of e-commerce is racing ahead. Although the net allows British industry to overtake their European peers, it also offers Asian countries to leapfrog (互相超越) the West. For the first time it is not the privilege of the Western world because this technology is universal." 58、 What is the purpose of E2 course? A. Teach electronic engineering management. B. Train engineers and managers to be acquainted with e-commerce. C. Train engineers and managers to be engineers and managers. D. Teach engineers and managers about developing a partnership. 59、 Why does Bhatt say that "e-business will make possible a second productivity revolution in Britain"? A. Because many business leaders have shown their interest in this. B. Because it can strengthen the companies' competitiveness. C. Because more people will learn e-commerce style. D. Because new information technologies can greatly improve industrial productivity. 60、 According to the passage, what do you know about e-business in Britain? A. E-business has eliminated many competitive rivals. B. E-business has done many benefits to big companies. C. Many companies have joined in the E2 business program. D. E-business has great potential and will make changes in the country. 61、 According to the passage, which of the following is true? A. Britain can be competitive to US in the area of information technology. B. Britain has already taken the advantages of running engineering management. C. As with many other European countries, Britain has made use of computer-aided systems. D. E-business has offered opportunities to European countries to eliminate the competitiveness gap with all the rivals. 62、 According to the last passage, what is Bahtt's attitude towards e-commerce? A. He thinks it as a precise opportunity only to Britain. B. He thinks that it is not as a good opportunity as people think. C. He thinks it is not only good for Britain but also a precise opportunity for other countries. D. He does not consider it a good opportunity in the long run. Part ? Cloze Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices markedA.,B.,C., andD.. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Given the lack of fit between (62) students and their schools, it is not surprising that such students often have (63) good to say about their school experience. In one study of 400 adults who had achieved (64) in all areas of life, researchers found that three-fifths of these individuals either did badly in school or were unhappy in school. Few MacArthur Prize fellows, (65) of the MacArthur Award for (66) accomplishment, had good things to say about their (67) schooling if they (68) in advanced programs. Anecdotal (名人轶事) reports support this. Pablo Picasso, Charles Darwin, Mark Twain, Oliver Gold Smith, and William Butler Yeats all disliked school. (69) did Winston Churchill, who almost failed out of Harrow, a(n) (70) British school. Often these children realize that they know more than their teachers, and their teachers often feel that these children are (71) , inattentive, or unmotivated. Some of these gifted people may have done poorly in school because their gifts were not (72) . Maybe we can (73) Picasso in this way. But most fared poorly in school not because they lacked ability (74) because they found school (75) and consequently lost interest. Yeats described the lack of (76) between his mind and school: "Because I had found it difficult to attend to anything less interesting than my own thoughts, I was difficult to teach." As noted earlier, gifted children of all kinds tend to be strong-willed (77) . Nonconformity and stubbornness (and Yeats's level of arrogance and self-absorption) are likely to lead to (78) with teachers. When highly gifted students in any (79) talk about what was important to the development of their abilities, they are (80) more likely to mention their families (81) their schools or teachers. 63、A. creative B. diligent C. gifted D. foolish 64、A. little B. many C. any D. few 65、A. goal B. distinction C. work D. accomplishment 66、A. winners B. people C. owners D. sponsors A. smart B. creative C. intelligent D. wise 67、 68、A. primary B. middle C. precollegiate D. collegiate 69、A. have not been placed B. had not been placed C. placed D. was placed 70、A.

Writing 1、Certificate Mania In the face of the mounting pressure nowadays, many university students take various training courses and certificate exams, in order to gain a competitive edge on the job market. They usually spend weekends or vacations in training camps, polishing up on their current skills or acquiring a new one. Certain "certificate maniacs" even obtain a bunch of certificates, believing that they may come into handy someday. Some of the most popular certificates are English, computer, tour guiding, etc. A chain of reasons leads to this certificate mania. At the heart of the phenomenon, there is an increasing number of university graduates while that of job vacancies does not grow in proportion to it. As a result, employers have bountiful options and would like to recruit the ones with more related experience and skills. Since exams and certificates in some way reflect one's mastery of certain skills, many students would like to give them a try. To be sure, it is a good thing to be spurred on to learn new things. However, "certificate mania" goes to extremes. It is not only misleading but also places a great burden on students. Some people believe that the more the better and consequently, their major studies may be influenced due to the tight schedule. In my opinion, a certificate does not necessarily reflect one's ability that really counts, and so we had better keep a skeptical eye on this mania and prevent vain and burdensome efforts.

In fact, it can be flavors with tomato, cheese, or chocolate for instance. M: How can it not taste fishy? Do you know how this snack food is made? W: First, the fish is minced and cooked, and fermented, then water and starch are added to make a dough. M: It sounds awful. W: Actually the dough is very bland at that point. So the flavorings are added to give it some taste. M: Well, it still sounds a little strange. But I suppose this product will at least be low-calorie and high-protein, like, eh, health-food. W: Yes, you could call it that. And it has a long shelf life, so it won't spoil quickly. It is easy to digest and can be made from types of fish that usually aren't eaten, or from high-grade fish byproducts. M: Hm... Have you got any example? I might be willing to try the cheese-flavored variety. W: No, none of these seems to be available yet. As I understand it, this fish snack food probably won't be in the stores for another couple of years, so you have a while to get used to the whole idea. M: A couple of years, huh?

Three fourths of its smoke is gone now and the remarkable change was caused by a series of killer fogs in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The worst of these settled over London on December 5th, 1952. For four continuous days the city's normal daily death rate was over 50. In all, some 4,000 extra deaths that winter were blamed on the incident. More such fogs came in the winters that followed. Each gave people a big alarm. In 1956 Parliament passed the Clean Air Act, declaring that factories and homes in critical areas of the city must switch from soft high sulphur coal to less smoky fuels: hard coal, gas, electricity, or oil. Inevitably there were economic problems and complaints, both to householders and to industries. But, with each passing year, London's air grew clearer. London has proved that the veil of smog can be cast off, but its success story stands almost alone. In sunny Spain, Madrid has joined the ranks of fog cities. In Italy, acid from smog cuts into centuries old sculpture. And each rain here in Washington washes more acid onto our marble buildings and monuments. The massive struggle to clean our air began so recently that victory seems far off. But we have taken an important step and we realize we must do something. In the frequently quoted words of Pogo, "We have met the enemy, and he is us." Which city's buildings are not suffering from smog now? 细节归纳题。文章提到伦敦摆脱了烟雾困扰，但它是唯一成功的。故选B。 28、C [解析] Where was the article probably published? 细节推断题。文中提到:在这儿华盛顿的雨水……，表明了说话人所在地是美国的首府华盛顿， 所以本文发表地最有可能是在美国。故C为正确答案。 29、D [解析] Which of the following can best describe the main idea of the article? 主旨题。最后一段告诉我们，作者借本文号召大家采取行动，战胜烟雾。由上题可知，作者身 处美国，故呼吁的对象是美国人。故选D。 30、A [解析] 29-31 Through the years of being an advisor at the university, I've often been requested to give suggestions about how to handle "information anxiety". Now let me give you some advice. First of all, what is "information anxiety"? Well, as you know, we are bombarded daily by books, magazines, newspapers, television, and radio. We are hit with bills, letters, and reports. All of this can cause quite a lot of anxiety. It's because we are living in the "information age" that we get this bombardment of information every day. So today let me give you some organizing tips that should make your life easier. First of all, when you get your mail, open it and sort it right away. Get rid of all junk inserts, and then sort the mail into four categories: to do, to pay, to read, and to file. Be realistic about your reading. Check the magazines you subscribe to on a regular basis. If you find yourself falling behind in your reading, let some of those subscriptions go. And if you are one of those people who like to clip out articles to read later, then do some screening first and be sure to clip only the most important articles for reading later. You should have a filing system, but don't use your files as a dumping ground. Make it a rule to clean out your files and papers at least once a year, more often if possible. Spend five or ten minutes each day cleaning up your desk and prioritizing your work for the next day. The following day will get off to a much better start if your desk is organized and you are not faced with overwhelming piles of paper. Don't use the top of your desk as a storage area. It should be a work area, with plenty of room to work. According to the speaker, what should the listeners do when they first get their mail? 细节题。文中发言者建议大家一收到邮件便马上进行分类整理，故选项A正确。 31、D [解析] What should people do with their magazine subscriptions? 语义理解题。文中提到没时间看的杂志不要再买。故选D。 32、C [解析] How often does the speaker suggest that the listeners clean out their files? 细节题。根据文中提到的至少要一年整理一次。可知选C。 A 33、 [解析] 32-35 One of New York's most beautiful and valuable buildings is in danger. The New York Public Library, in the heart of the city at 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue, may have to close its doors. The library is a very special place. Even though it is in the busiest part of the city, it has grass and trees around it, and benches for people to sit on. Even more unusual in crowded New York, its rooms are very large. The roof of the Main Reading Room is fifty-one feet high. Here, a reader can sit and think and work in comfort. And what books there are to work with! The library has over thirty million books and paintings. It owns one of the first copies of a Shakespeare play, a Bible printed by Gutenberg in the 15th century, and a letter written by Columbus in which he tells of finding the new world. Every New Yorker can see and use the library's riches for free. But the cost of running the library has risen rapidly in recent years, and the library does not have enough money to continue its work. In the past, it was open every evening, and also on Saturdays and Sundays. Now it is closed at those times, to save money. The library is trying in every possible way to raise money to meet its increasing costs. Well-known New York writers and artists are trying to help. So are the universities, whose students use the library, and the governments of New York City and New York State. But the problem remains serious. Yet a way must be found to save the library, because, as one writer said, "The Public Library is the most important building in New York City--it contains all our knowledge." Where is the New York Public Library? 细节题。本题属于数字辨别题。文章开始就谈到纽约公立图书馆建在第五大道的42街。 34、C [解析] Which of the following statements is false according to the passage? 细节题。原文中提到主阅览室屋顶高51英尺，而非41英尺。故选C。 35、B [解析] How many books and paintings does the library have? 细节题。文中说图书馆有超过三千万本书画册。 36、D [解析] Why is the library closed every evening and on Saturdays and Sundays? 细节题，文中提到了经营图书馆的费用上涨，因此为了省钱图书馆晚 上和周末不开放。 Section C 37、petroleum [解析] When we think of oil, the part of the world that comes to mind first may be the Middle East. But (36) petroleum development takes place worldwide. Nigeria, for example, is the largest oil producer in Africa and the eleventh largest producer in the world. Russia is the world's second largest (37) supplier of oil and the top (38) exporter of natural gas. In 1960 Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela (39) formed the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Its (40) influence may have reached a high point during the oil crisis (41) connected to the 1973 Arab-Israeli war. Arab oil producers (42) boycotted the United States, Western Europe and Japan because of their support for Israel. Since then, new discoveries and increased production in areas including countries of the former Soviet Union have provided more oil. Today OPEC has twelve members. The newest is Angola, which joined in 2007. High oil prices have brought new attention to OPEC. Its members produce about forty percent of the world's oil. But two of the world's top three oil exporters, Russia and Norway, are not OPEC members. National oil companies are (43) estimated to control about eighty percent of the world's oil supply. (44) In recent years, rising oil prices have led more governments to act, either directly or indirectly, to take control of their oil industries. President Hugo Chavez has moved to nationalize oil operations in Venezuela. And (45) in Russia, a series of actions resulted in state-owned companies gaining control of reserves held by Yukos. Yukos was Russia's largest private company, (46) until the government said it owed billions of dollars in taxes and jailed its founder, Russia's richest man. 38、supplier 39、exporter 40、formed 41、influence 42、connected 43、boycotted 44、 estimated 45、In recent years, rising oil prices have led more governments to act, either directly or indirectly, to take control of their oil industries. 46、in Russia, a series of actions resulted in state-owned companies gaining control of reserves 47、until the government said it owed billions of dollars in taxes and jailed its founder, Russia's richest man.
