The Internet has led to a huge increase in credit-card (信用卡) fraud. Your card informati

The Internet has led to a huge increase in credit-card (信用卡) fraud. Your card information could even be for sale in an illegal Web site (网站).

Web sites offering cheap goods and services should be regarded with care. On-line shoppers who enter their credit-card information may never receive the goods they thought they bought. The thieves then go shopping with your card number or sell the information over the Internet.

Computers hackers (黑客) have broken down security (安全) systems , raising questions about the safety of cardholder information.

Several months ago, 25, 000 customers of CD Universe, an on-line music retailer (批发商) , were not lucky. Their names, addresses and credit-card numbers were posted on a Web site after the retailer refused to pay US $ 157, 828 to get back the information.

Credit-card firms are now fighting against on-line fraud. Mastercard is working on plans for web—only credit-card, with a lower credit limit. The card could be used only for shopping on-line. However, there are a few simple steps you can take to keep from being cheated.

Ask about your credit-card firm's on-line rules; Under British law, cardholders are responsible (对……负有责任的)for the first US $ 78 of any fraudulent spending.

And shop only at secure sites: Send your credit-card information only if the web site offers advanced secure system.

If the security is in place, a letter will appear in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen. The Web site address may also start with https://—the extra"s" stands for secure. If in doubt, give your credit-card information over the telephone.

Keep your password safe. Most on-line sites require a user name and password before placing an order. Treat your passwords with care.

What do most people worry about the Internet according to this passage?

A.A lot of stolen credit-cards were sold on the Internet.

B.Fraud on the Internet.

C.Many Web sites are destroyed.

D.Many illegal Web sites are on the Internet.

第2题

In an Internet era, whether globalization means democracy and development or hindrance to
progress, foreign interference and U.S.-led economic domination over the developing countries has evoked hot debate.

Globalization is an inevitable tendency which has brought great opportunities such as exchange of knowledge and information, access to other societies, as well as economic competitions and exposure to different value systems. On the other hand, it is also accompanied by a multitude of challenges together with side effects on the form. of increased poverty rates, but the effect is not always predetermined, because the problem is how to deal with it and make preparation for minimizing the challenge.

Statistics demonstrate in the last two centuries the individual income average has decreased, and the shares of profit in the Third World also have demolished, in contrary to the developed world. There is an international distortion due to the exploitation of telecommunication technology which facilitates money transfer, which made it easier for capital flight. During the last two centuries, the number of civil wars has increased and the world became under the control of globalization and economic reform. which eventually led countries like Indonesia to be bankrupted. This year in Seattle, over 40,000 young demonstrators protested against capitalism and its "brutality" during meetings of the World Trade Organization. Two hundred protesters against globalization were arrested and hauled many away in buses after they ventured into a downtown security zone, where police had restricted movement and imposed a curfew.

"Globalization is an expression repeated by international media, which is trying to polish it for us to only see the bright side to it. We have to beware of the motives behind this ideological expression and the influence of this expression on our destiny. Globalization has proven that it is nothing but corruption and the world is against it", said Dr. Hisham Gasseib, professor of Sumaya University.

If globalization is forced itself on any nation, it is considered occupation, because it wipes any culture or education and instead reflects poverty and unemployment. The high competition made a huge number of people live on the edge which forces them do anything to gain money, and eventually put their countries under control of other countries. Globalization is like a flat character with no dimensions, a challenge for all nations. Nations with great cultural background should not accept any gesture from the West without thoroughly studying it.

What's the main idea of the article?

A.Globalization brings great opportunity to all the nations in the world.

B.The developing countries sh6uld resist globalization because it will harm their economy.

C.Globalization is both an opportunity and a challenge, all the countries must study it carefully before they accept it.

D.Globalization will harm those countries that own great cultural background more than those that haven't.
