     Someday a stranger will read your email without your permission or scan the websites you've visited.
Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out
your shopping preferences or calling habits.
    In fact,it's likely that some of these things have already happened to you.Who would watch you without
your permission ? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal.
Whoever it is,they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen-21st century is the equal of being
caught naked.
     Psychologists tell us boundaries (dividing line) are healthy,and that it's important to reveal yourself to
friends,family and lovers in stages,at appropriate times.But few boundaries remain.The digital bread pieces
you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are,where you are and what you
like.In some cases,a simple Google search can reveal what you think.Like it or not,increasingly we live in
a world where you simply cannot keep a secret
.The key question is:Does that matter?
     When opinion polls  (民意测验) ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about
losing it. A survey found an overwhelming  (very large)  pessimism about privacy , with 60 percent of
respondents saying they feel their privacy is "slipping away,and that bothers me."
     But people say one thing and do another.Only a  tiny part of  Americans change any behaviors  in an
effort to protect their privacy.Few people turn down a tollbooth  (收费站)  to avoid using the  EZPass
system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy
economist Alissanfro Acquisti has a series of tests that reveal that people will give personal information
like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50centoff coupon (优惠券).
     But privacy does matter-at least sometimes.It's like health;when you have it,you don't notice it.Only
when it's gone do you wish you'd done more to protect it.

A.Friends should open their hearts to each other.
B.Friends should always be faithful to each other.
C.There should be a distance even between friends.
D.There should be fewer quarrels between friends.
2.Why does the author say "we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret"?
A.Modern society has finally developed into an open society.
B.People leave traces around when using modern technology.
C.There are always people who are curious about others' affairs.
D.Many search engines profit by revealing people's identities
3.What do most Americans do about privacy protection?
A.They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.
B.They use various loyalty cards for business deals.
C.They rely more and more on electronic devices.
D.They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.

A Chinese graduate’s record – setting $8,888,888 donation to his school at Yale University has caused wide debate at home.
The donation will primarily help build the new SOM campus, while part of it will provide scholarship support for the International Relations Program at Yale's new Jackson Institute of Global Affairs, as well as fund(资助) a variety of China-related activities at the university.
Some asked why Zhang Lei, who graduated from Yale less than 10 years ago, chose an overseas institution rather than Renmin University, his alma mater (母校), for the donation. But a larger group of online users voiced support for Zhang's move and said there is still room for improvement regarding management of universities in China.
"We should look at this news from an international standpoint," said Chi Fulin, professor and president of China Institute for Development and Reform. Chi said although Yale gets the money,  the donation will also benefit China.
"It will promote more Sino-US exchange programs, and more Chinese will be involved in these exchanges." He said that China also has received a lot of support and funding from overseas donors, and Zhang's move should be regarded with "respect, understanding and encouragement".
In terms of cultural and educational exchanges between China and the US, a larger part of financial aid comes from non – government organizations. "China should also try to attract more donations through such channels in the future," he said.
Zhang said Yale changed his life and taught him the spirit of giving. "Yale has been helping China for more than 100 years. he said, “Many Chinese leaders were educated at Yale. But the relationship has been one-way for too long and I want to help change that."
Zhang, who graduated from the Yale School of Management in 2002, worked for the Yale Investments Office. In 2005, Zhang founded Hillhouse Capital Management Ltd, a Beijing-based investment fund that manages $2.5 billion.
56.Zhang Lei contributed such a large sum of money to Yale just         .
A.to relieve the situation that Yale was lacking in money
B.to pay Yale back for the free education he received
C.to help change the pattern of the one – way assistance
D.to promote the relationship between China and the US
57.What’s the writer’s attitude towards Zhang Lei’s donation to Yale?
A.objective  B.supportive C.opposed    D.unconcerned
58.From the passage, we can see professor Chi Fulin argues that         .
A.more Chinese should be involved in donating money to US
B.the behavior of Zhang Lei is respectable and deserves praise
C.government organizations matter much in exchange programs
D.universities in China should take management more seriously
59.As for Zhang Lei,          .
A.his generosity made him world – famous overnight
B.his company mainly serves the Yale Investments Office
C.Yale shaped his life and taught him the spirit of giving
D.he considers Yale his preference to Renmiu University
60.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A.Act of Kindness set a record
B.Individual donation makes a difference
C.A new page for Sino – US relationship
