13．What do you use as your online password？
According to a new study （25）conducted （conduct） by Google in the UK，a pet's name is the most common choice---about 16percent of people use their pet's name as their passwords．
The next （26）most popular （popular） kind of password is an important date such as a wedding anniversary or the date of birth of a family member．The name of a child，words related to favorite sports teams and even （27）the word"password"were among the most common passwords chosen by users，reported the Daily Mail．
Eran Feigenbaum of Google has warned that passwords that are easy to guess （28）make （make） accounts unsafe．The truth is （29）that one in six people has tried to log into someone else's account by guessing a password，including that of a colleague or family member，the study found．
Some of our other bad habits when using the Internet also make our accounts easy to steal．For example，almost 20percent of people have walked away from their computers without logging out of websites，thus （30）allowing （allow） those who use the computer after you to get into your accounts （31）without having to enter any passwords．
"People often leave their information open to online security breaches （安全漏洞） without even realizing it，"Feigenbaum said．"Simple steps such as choosing more complicated passwords and always （32）logging （log） out of service can make a real difference to your security online．"
7．The Cost of Higher Education
Individuals （个人） should pay for their higher education．
A university education is of huge and direct benefit to the individual．Graduates earn more than non-graduates．Meanwhile，social mobility is ever more dependent on having a degree．However，only some people have it．So the individual，not the taxpayers，should pay for it．There are pressing calls on the resources （资源） of the government．Using taxpayers'money to help a small number of people to earn high incomes in the future is not one of them．
Full government funding （资助） is not very good for universities．Adam Smith worked in a Scottish university whose teachers lived off student fees．He knew and looked down upon 18th-century Oxford，where the academics lived comfortably off the income received from the government．Guaranteed salaries，Smith argued，were the enemy of hard work； and when the academics were lazy and incompetent，the students were similarly lazy．
If students have to pay for their education，they not only work harder，but also demand more from their teachers．And their teachers have to keep them satisfied．If that means taking teaching seriously，and giving less time to their own res earch interests，that is surely something to celebrate．
Many people believe that higher education should be free because it is good for the economy （经济）．Many graduates clearly do contribute to national wealth，but so do all the businesses that invest （投资） and create jobs．If you believe that the government should pay for higher education because graduates are economically productive，you should also believe that the government should pay part of business costs．Anyone promising to create jobs should receive a gift of capital from the government to invest．Therefore，it is the individual，not the government，who should pay for their university education．

68．The underlined word"them"in Paragraph 2 refers toB
A．taxpayers
B．pressing calls
C．college graduates
D．government resources
69．The author thinks that with full government fundingD
A．teachers are less satisfied
B．students are more demanding
C．students will become more competent
D．teachers will spend less time on teaching
70．The author mentions businesses in Paragraph 5 in order toA
A．argue against free university education
B．call on them to finance students'studies
C．encourage graduates to go into business
D．show their contribution to higher education．
