1 . A 2020 study by Balbix found that 99% of the people surveyed reused their passwords between work accounts or between work and personal accounts.     1    

For example, a 2019 study by Google found that 59% of the people they surveyed used a name or a birthday in their password. And 24% admitted using a password like one of these below: 1234, 12345, 123456, etc.     2     Since both personal and work accounts are accessible from the same device with the same password, it simplifies the work a bad actor has to do in order to breach (攻入) your systems.

    3     The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Password Guidelines are widely regarded as the international standard for password best practices. Following these guidelines—and insisting your employees do the same—will help protect you against threats from weak or stolen passwords. Password managers can simplify the work required for your employees to follow these guidelines.

It's more secure to require your employees to use more than one authentication (身份验证) factor to access mobile company applications.     4     They'd need to check on their identity with additional authentication factors in order to log in.

Finally, you can also perform passwordless authentication.     5     For example, in the event that a mobile device is stolen or accessed illegally, requiring a facial scan (扫描) or a finger scan as a primary or secondary authentication factor could still prevent unauthorized access.

A.Passwords are commonly shared in the workplace.
B.It will help you to root out password risks altogether.
C.Many employees still create weak and simple passwords.
D.These bad password habits present a threat to organizations.
E.That helps reduce the risk that a bad actor gains access to your systems.
F.Unfortunately, the passwords that employees are reusing are often weak.
G.However, that's not to say there is no way to reduce or uproot password threats.

2 . Alida Monaco doesn’t spend her summers doing the usual teenage work, like working at the mall. Instead,she ‘ s studying.

It used to be that a summer job was considered a teenage thing. Today, Monaco ,who has never had a summer job, is part of growing trend (趋势)teenagers focusing on their studies, even during the summer. That’s down from 72% of Americans aged 16 to 19 who worked in July of 1978, according to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Fierce (激烈的)competition, older workers returning to the workforce and weak economic growth are all adding to the decrease of teenagers in the workforce. But as schoolwork grows increasingly heavy and homework eats up more time, data suggest the biggest reason why some teens won’t be working this summer is that they simply don’t1 have time.

For college - bound teens, some teachers even advise students not to waste time on a summer job. “ Some of my students only have about six weeks off in the summer,” said Shannon Reed, a lecturer at the University of Pittsburgh and a former high school English teacher.” I could never advise that they get jobs during that short break. ”

Young people who don’t work may miss out on valuable skills that they’11 need control and help people learn to deal with adult situations. But Monaco, who plans to attend Harvard, isn’t fazed by her lack(缺乏)of work experience. “Maybe I have missed out on a couple of life skills, “she said. “ But I don’t think it will harm me in way .”

1. What is the trend of American teenagers?
A.They are becoming lazy.
B.They are fond of doing holiday jobs.
C.They are focusing more on studies than on jobs.
D.They are becoming particular about (挑剔)holiday jobs
2. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A.The reasons for teenagers giving up work.
B.The fierce competition teenagers face.
C.The structure (结构)of America’s workforce.
D.The effects of America9 s weak economy.
3. What’s Shannon Reed’s attitude towards the new trend?
A.uncaring.B.favorable(支持的).C.worried.D.doubtful.
4. What does the underlined word “fazed” in the last paragraph mean?
A.supported.B.helped.C.upset.D.confused.

文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了英国很多司机都会疲劳驾驶,疲劳驾驶会造成很多事故。文章作者旨在警告人们疲劳驾驶的危险。

3 . Almost one in five drivers had dozed off behind the wheel, a shocking news report had showed. Of those who were dozing off, 29% have done so with their cars speeding at 70 miles per hour. The report also found a quarter of men have fallen asleep while driving, making it almost twice as many as women.

The Safety on Wheel Report, by Post Office Insurance, also looked at how often tiredness or a lack of concentration caused accidents. Three in ten drivers have experienced an accident, from passing a walker crossing to hitting another vehicle, because of a lack of concentration. Meanwhile, almost half (49%) of UK drivers have driven when they do not concentrate.

Paul Havenhand, head of insurance at Post Office, said, “ When tiredness strikes, drivers should avoid the roads.” There is no measurement for tired driving, unlike driving under the influence of alcohol, yet it could result in an equally dangerous accident.

Drivers are advised to take a 15-minute break from driving every two hours. However, a third (36%) are so eager to reach their destination that they will ignore feelings of tiredness. What’s more, almost one in five (18%) will drive for longer than four hours without a break, while 6% carry on for up to 6 hours. Just over a quarter (27%) choose a quick stop to buy a cup of coffee, which is a very popular way for drivers to get rid of tiredness, and only 17% stop to have a rest until they feel energetic again. Mr. Havenhand added, “Drivers should plan ahead and rest before starting a long journey; besides, they can take regular breaks to recharge their batteries while on road; in some cases, if they do feel too tired to concentrate on the roads, they could consider an alternative means of transport.”

1. Which suggestion is NOT put forward by Mr. Havenhand?
A.Preparing well for a long journey and taking a complete rest before it.
B.Having breaks regularly in order to feel refreshed.
C.Choosing another method of transport instead.
D.Choosing a quick stop to grab something to eat.
2. What does the underlined phrase “recharge their batteries” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Put a new supply of electricity into their batteries.
B.Get back their energy by resting for a while.
C.Accuse them of stealing batteries.
D.Pay twice more money for their batteries.
3. It is implied in the last paragraph that for drivers the most popular cure for tiredness is _____.
A.drinking coffee
B.talking with others
C.ignoring feelings of tiredness
D.singing songs
4. What’s the purpose of the writer in writing this passage?
A.To warn people of the danger of tired driving.
B.To tell people to be careful when walking on the street.
C.To inform people of the importance of a good rest.
D.To introduce some dangers while driving on the roads.

4 .

Technological change is everywhere and affects every aspect of life, mostly for the better. However, social changes are brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes.

An example at hand is the involvement of parents in the lives of their children who are attending college. Surveys (调查) on this topic suggests that parents today continue to be “very” or “somewhat” overly-protective even after their children move into college dormitories. The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involvement is greater today than it was a generation ago. This is usually interpreted as a sign that today’s parents are trying to manage their children’s lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate.

However, greater parental involvement does not necessarily indicate that parents are failing to let go of their “adult” children.

In the context (背景) of this discussion, it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents’ involvement with their grown children. If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently, would this have been possible? Probably not. On the other hand, does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the urge to do so wasn’t present a generation ago? Many studies show that older parents — today’s grandparents — would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier.

Furthermore, studies show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children. The fact that college students are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new; nor are requests for more money to be sent from home. This phenomenon is neither good nor bad; it is a fact of college life, today and in the past.

Thanks to the advanced technology, we live in an age of bettered communication. This has many implications well beyondthe role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for college. But it is useful to bear in mind that all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined desire by parents to keep their children under their wings.

1. The surveys inform us of ______.
A.the development of technology
B.the changes of adult children’s behavior
C.the parents’ over-protection of their college children
D.the means and expenses of students’ communication
2. The writer believes that ______.
A.parents today are more protective than those in the past
B.the disadvantages of new technology outweigh its advantages
C.technology explains greater parental involvement with their children
D.parents’ changed attitudes lead to college children’s delayed independence
3. What is the best title for the passage?
A.Technology or Attitude
B.Dependence or Independence
C.Family Influence or Social Changes
D.College Management or Communication Advancement
4. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?
I:Introduction
P:Point
Sp:Sub-point
C:Conclusion

5 . The word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs.    1    Some people are compulsive (难以自制的) shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games.

    2    Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more every day, but it’s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things that they don’t need. Even though they don’t have enough money, they buy everything they want.

The question is: why do they have this addiction? There isn’t a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something.    3    

Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can bring out problems. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit. However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot.    4    They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend money they don’t have.    5    

A.Once you are addicted to alcohol or drugs, it is difficult to get rid of.
B.Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity.
C.They use this activity as a way to forget their problems.
D.However, in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions.
E.People addicted to computer games consider the games as great ways to amuse themselves.
F.They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt(破产) and get sent to prison.
G.It can also cause financial problems.
