Justin’s bedroom was so full of flat bicycle tires, bent tennis rackets, deflated(瘪掉的)basketballs, and games with missing pieces that you could barely get in the door. His parents pleaded with him to clean out his room.

“What use is a fish tank with a hole in the bottom?” his father asked. But Justin simply smiled and repeated his motto, “Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy.”

When Justin was away from home, he always carried his blue backpack--a smaller version of his bedroom--a place to store the many objects that he collected. It was so worn and stretched that it hardly resembled a backpack anymore.

Justin had earned a reputation for figuring things out and getting people out of otherwise hopeless situations. Many of his classmates and neighbors sought him out when they needed help with a problem. On the first day of school, his friend Kenny, came looking for Justin.

“Do you think you have something in your bag that could help me remember my locker combination?” he asked. “I lost the piece of paper it was written on. I have a science class in two minutes and if I’m late on the first day it’ll make me look bad for the rest of the year.” Kenny looked really worried.

“Relax,” Justin said, taking his backpack off and unzipping the top. “Remember how you borrowed my notebook in homeroom to write the combination down? Well, I know how we can recover what you wrote.”

He took the notebook and a soft lead pencil out of his bag. The page that Kenny had written on had left faint marks on another page in the notebook. Justin held the pencil on its side and rubbed it lightly over the marks. Slowly but surely the numbers of the locker combination appeared in white, set off by the gray pencil rubbings.

“That’s amazing!” Kenny said. “I owe you one.” And he dashed off to open his locker.

It was just another day in the life of the boy whose motto was “Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy.”

Why is Justin’s room such a mess? WWW.K**S*858$$U.COM

A. He always forgets to clean it.               B. He shares the room with his brother.

C. He has no time to clean it.                 D. He never throws anything away.

In what way is Justin’s backpack a smaller version of his bedroom?

A. He uses it as a place to store objects.

B. He uses it to carry his books and sports equipment.

C. His parents tell him to clean it all the time.

D. He’s had it for as long as he can remember.

The underlined phrase "pleaded with" means

A. ignored               B. asked             C. pushed              D. Ordered

How does Kenny feel toward Justin?

A. Annoyed.     B. Disinterested.             C. Grateful.         D. Angry.

Word to World

Lawmakers in the United States have expanded an investigation into the use of location-tracking systems on mobile devices. The action follows recent reports about the storing of information on the Apple iPhone. Some people consider location tracking to be a threat to personal privacy and security.

    Allan Friedman, the research director, says, “All wireless companies do some location tracking as part of their networks. This information is usually stored by the companies, not the devices, and there are laws to protect it. Law enforcement(执法) agencies, for example, have to have a fairly high standard before it can access that data. And the phone company is also prohibited from selling that information.

    Now, two researchers report that location tracking information is being stored directly on Apple devices. They said Apple’s newest operating systems gather global positioning system and timestamp information. The information is stored on the device in a file that is also uploaded (上传) to any computer that the device is connected to. The researchers say the information is available to anyone who has access to the device or computer.

Allan Friedman says, “This raises additional concerns. There’s the idea that because it’s on my phone and on my computer, rogue applications(恶意程序) that I pay for or that I’m tricked into downloading may be able to access this data and somehow misuse it.”

Apple says it is “not tracking the location of your iPhone”. It is simply keeping a database of Wi-Fi hotspots and cellphone towers near the user’s location. This information is meant to help the iPhone quickly find its location when needed.

Letters have been sent to some of the leading mobile device developers, including Apple and Google. The letters asked for more information about their location tracking systems. Allan Friedman calls this an important start to strengthening privacy laws. He says, “There aren’t strong controls over things like location information, what they are doing with it, how long they are keeping it. And perhaps the most important question is, is my location data with other facts about me?”

1.Why did American lawmakers investigate the use of location-tracking systems on cell-phones?

A.Because the systems can store users’ information

B.Because many users have suffered loss after using them.

C.Because it is thought to threaten users’ privacy.

D.Because many reporters have shown the problem of the systems.

2. Allan Friedman believes that ________.

A.wireless companies focus on personal privacy.

B.people are forbidden to get access to private data at will

C.phone companies may sell private information secretly

D.customers may ask wireless companies to locate their tracking

3. What do we know from Paragraph 3?

    A.  Location tracking information is stored online.

B.Apple’s newest operating systems collect all kinds of information.

C.Location tracking information may be uploaded to any iPhone.

D.Apple’s newest operating systems may reveal the private information of users.

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Apple denies that it tracks the location of users.

B.The researchers may misunderstand the Apple’s systems.[来源:Z,xx,k.Com]

C.The global positioning system is to blame for rogue applications.

D.The iPhone can quickly find its location by using its user’s information.
