The latest fashion in the kitchen is the food steamer．All the stores are selling them；everyone wants one．Steaming is one of the simplest and healthiest ways of cooking food．However，that cooking time is usually longer than with other methods．In case you’re thinking of buying a steamer，I’ve done a survey about the steamers available on the market to help you decide which will suit you best．

Folding Steamer

The simplest and least expensive is the folding stainless-steel(不锈钢)version．

Advantages：This is a good，basic design which sits inside a variety of different shapes of pans with the water under it；a ring in the centre allows for easy lifting and it's easy to clean．

Disadvantages：It only holds small dishes．Also，if you put too much water in the pan，it will boil up through the vegetables and they will be watery．If you put too little water in and let it get dry，you will burn the pan and get strange-smelling vegetables．

Steaming Pan

This is a three-layered black Teflon-coated version with a lid and two double-handled steamers，which sits on the oven ring．The brand I bought is called Nutritious Living．

Advantages：This is an excellent steamer, lightweight，easy to clean，and of all the steamers I’ve tried，this cooks the fastest．Fish and chicken can be cooked on the bottom with rice or vegetables on the top．It’s easier to store．

Disadvantages：Water can boil away until the pan is dry，but if you make sure you fill the pan up to the suggested level and do not overcook the food，this should not happen．You cannot see the food cooking from the top．It doesn’t supply a dish for cooking rice．

For serious users of steamers，I recommend having one of each version．If you just want to try it，get the folding stainless-steel type．

1.The food steamer is popular with people because ________________．

A．it can save time and money

B．food can be cooked simply and healthily

C．it is easy to clean and store

D．it is available in any store

2.Which of the following is true about the folding steamers?

A．They are cheap and easy to use．

B．They are difficult to clean．

C. They can hold all kinds of dishes．

D．You can put little water in the pan．

3.When you use the steaming pan，_________

A．you can overcook the food

B．you can only cook rice

D．you should pour proper amount of water

Security—for the information on your smartphone, as well as for the phone itself is a hot topic these days．The truth is that you’re packing a lot of sensitive information on your phone, and you should keep it safe．

When it comes to physical security, iPhone users would do well to download Find My iPhone, a free app from Apple that allows you to visit a website and see your (lost, stolen or misplaced) phone on the map．You can then sound an alarm, send a message that will pop up on its screen, lock the phone or erase all your data．

Android does not have an exact equivalent(等价物), but there are plenty of alternatives．A free app called Lookout offers the find my phone feature．The paid version allows you to wipe the data from your phone remotely．

Then there is your coffee shop’s WiFi network．Anyone with minimal technical expert skill can snoop on(窥视) people using shared wireless networks, harvesting passwords and other personal data．Lookout’s apps will caution you when you’ve logged on to an insecure network, but cannot protect you once you’re there．

In order to protect yourself on such networks, you can use a virtual private network, or V．P．N．This turns all your activity into nonsense to anyone trying to read along with you from across the Starbucks．It also keeps websites from tracking you and, if you’re traveling, allows you to get access to sites that may be blocked in other countries．

If you have an iPhone, the simplest V．P．N．app is probably Hotspot Shield, whose distinguishing feature is said to be that it automatically kicks in each time you start browsing (浏览), as opposed to other V．P．N．apps that require you to start them up manually(手动)．This matters, because even if you decide you want a V．P．N．app, you want to spend approximately zero time thinking about it．For the most part, that was true of Hotspot Shield, though occasionally it took a while to connect or temporarily lost connection without warning．I found myself having to turn the app on and off sometimes, which involved setting my phone constantly．

If even reading about the setting on your phone drives you crazy, then it is probably best to stay away from a V．P．N．app．But if you’re the type who can’t resist checking your bank balance from your comer bar, the hassle (麻烦) may be preferable to the risk．

1.Which of the following can warn you against the insecure network?

A．Android

B．V．P．N．

C．Lookout

D．Find My iPhone

2.By using V．P．N．, users can ________．

A．find their lost phone on the Internet

B．remove all the data form the phone remotely

C．check the bank balance now and then

D．save their browsing from being tracked

3.The underlined word “that” in Para．6 refers to the fact that _________．

A．a V．P．N．app kicks in automatically

B．the users starts V．P．N．apps manually

C．the app take a while to connect

D．users spend no time thinking about it

Someone asks me what on the earth happiness means? I can’t give you the exactly definition of it, but I’m sure if you love and help others, you’ll get it.

I’ll never forget an old lady. She lives a small house alone. It’s said that her husband and her son were died in a traffic accident. How bitter her life is! But the old lady often helped others with a smile. Wherever it snows, she is always the first to clean the paths. She looks after several children living nearby. I am one of those. I often remember the stories she told about us and her kind smile. Perhaps she is lucky, but I think she is a happy person. Her life full of laughter and love.
