| Someday a stranger will read your email without your permission or scan the websites you've visited. Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits. In fact,it's likely that some of these things have already happened to you.Who would watch you without your permission ? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is,they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen-21st century is the equal of being caught naked. Psychologists tell us boundaries (dividing line) are healthy,and that it's important to reveal yourself to friends,family and lovers in stages,at appropriate times.But few boundaries remain.The digital bread pieces you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are,where you are and what you like.In some cases,a simple Google search can reveal what you think.Like it or not,increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.The key question is:Does that matter? When opinion polls (民意测验) ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found an overwhelming (very large) pessimism about privacy , with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is "slipping away,and that bothers me." But people say one thing and do another.Only a tiny part of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to protect their privacy.Few people turn down a tollbooth (收费站) to avoid using the EZPass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alissanfro Acquisti has a series of tests that reveal that people will give personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50centoff coupon (优惠券)． But privacy does matter-at least sometimes.It's like health；when you have it,you don't notice it.Only when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it. |
| 1．What would psychologists advise on the relationship between friends? |
| A．Friends should open their hearts to each other. B．Friends should always be faithful to each other. C．There should be a distance even between friends. D．There should be fewer quarrels between friends. |
| 2．Why does the author say "we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret"? |
| A．Modern society has finally developed into an open society. B．People leave traces around when using modern technology. C．There are always people who are curious about others' affairs. D．Many search engines profit by revealing people's identities |
| 3．What do most Americans do about privacy protection? |
| A．They change behaviors that might disclose their identity. B．They use various loyalty cards for business deals. C．They rely more and more on electronic devices. D．They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it. |
| 4．According to the passage,privacy is like health because________. |
| A．people will make every effort to keep it B．its importance is rarely understood C．it is something that can easily be lost D．people don't value it until they lost it |

In the fall of 1860,a beardless Abraham Lincoln was running for President of the United States when he received a letter from elevenyearold Grace Bedell of Westfield,New York.In her letter,Grace told him that he should let his whiskers grow because his face was "so thin"．She explained that "ladies like whiskers" and that if he grew a beard,"they would ask their husbands to vote" for him. Lincoln responded with the following letter: My dear little Miss, Your very agreeable letter of the 15th is received. I regret the necessity of saying I have no daughters...

On his train ride to Washington D．C.,Lincoln made a stop in Westfield, New York. He greeted the cheering crowd. Then he asked if the girl who wrote him a letter was present.
