26、   What's safer? Using a numeric PIN code(数字密码)to unlock your smartphone or relying on a swipe(滑动)pattern? New research suggests that, at least when someone close by could be looking over your shoulder, you might be safer with an old-fashioned PIN.

The research by the United States Naval Academy and the University of Maryland tested what could best secure smartphones from so-called "shoulder surfing attacks". So, if you are worried about someone looking over your shoulder while you unlock your phone, would you be wiser to use a PIN or a pattern? According to this research at least, the answer to that question is pretty clear.

Those who have a single observation of your screen as you unlock it with a swipe pattern will be successful in knowing it 64.2% of the time. Security can be improved somewhat by removing lines on the pattern lock (35.3% success rate for shoulder surfers).

By comparison, the use of a six-digit PIN greatly reduces the chances for an attacker to determine how to unlock your smartphone, with just 10.8% of attacks being successful. In tests, viewers were able to determine the users' lock-screen patterns from up to six feet away, from a variety of different angles, even after a single viewing.

Indeed, when it comes to safety, past research has determined that an unlock pattern is about the same as a three-digit PIN -something I hope that none of us would rely upon.

The researchers' conclusion is that a PIN of six digits or more is the most secure de fence against shoulder surfing attacks, and while both types of pattern lock are poor, patterns without lines provide greater security.

Unsurprisingly, the research confirmed that phones with larger screens were found to provide less security against shoulder surfing attacks.

【1】What did the research focus on?

A.What lock-screen patterns people use. B.When shoulder surfing attacks occur.

C.Why people prefer numeric PIN codes. D.How you can unlock your phone safely.

【2】What do we learn about shoulder surfing attacks?

A.They can increase our screen time. B.They are a threat to our privacy.

C.They are a kind of physical attack. D.They can be done through remote control.

【3】Which of the following proves to be the safest?

A.A six-digit PIN. B.A three-digit PIN.

C.A lock-screen pattern with lines. D.A lock-screen pattern without lines.

【4】What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?

A.Add some background information. B.Provide some advice for the readers.

C.Offer additional topic-related information. D.Summarize the previous paragraphs.

27、I believe that it is important to be brought up with a firm belief in the good. I was fortunate in this respect. My parents not only gave me a happy home, but they had me study half a dozen foreign languages and made it possible for me to travel in other countries. This made me more tolerant and helped me to conquer many difficulties in later life.

Soon after I got married, my husband and I left our native country and went to live in Shanghai, China. Here was a really international city. People of all races and beliefs lived and worked together.

In Shanghai, in 1941, when I was only twenty years old, the doctors discovered that I had diabetes. It was a terrible shock, because diabetes is incurable. But it can be controlled by insulin(胰岛素).Although this drug was not manufactured in China, there were enough stocks of imported insulin available. This enabled me to continue a normal, happy life.

Then bombs fell on Pearl Harbor and the Japanese occupied Shanghai. The import of insulin was cut off. Before long, there was not enough for the diabetics. I was on a starvation diet to keep my insulin requirements as low as possible. Many diabetics had already died, and the situation became desperate. In spite of all this, I never stopped believing that with the help of my husband’s love and care, I would survive.

I continued to teach in Chinese schools. My faith and my husband’s never-ending efforts to get the manufacture of insulin started gave me courage. In his small laboratory the production of insulin was attempted. I served as the human guinea pig(实验对象)on which it was tested. I’ll never forget the day when my husband gave me the first injection of the new insulin, which had worked on rabbits. It helped! Can you imagine our happiness and relief?

I received the greatest strength from the deep love and complete understanding between my husband and me. And next to that was the kindness and help of many, many friends of many nationalities. To me, the experience of living in Shanghai during the special times was unforgettable.

After the Second World War, my husband and I sailed to the United States, which is also known as the melting pot. Wherever we live, I believe, with faith and love, love between families and friends from different nationalities, we can make it our cherished home.

D．the human guinea pig

【3】How does the author feel about her stay in China?

C．Unfortunate.

D．Unforgettable.

28、   Like many people，I’ve spent much of my life trying various diets and methods of losing weight, some quick and painless, others slow and tiring. most of them including the so-called “cheat day”.

The principle of the cheat day is simple: After going on a diet throughout a week or a month, you can eat anything you like on that day. The day makes all my eating and drinking not only satisfactory but acceptable. After all, I deserve it.

However, the problem for me was that cheat days were never quite that. Either they became happy cheat weeks, cheat months and sometimes cheat years, or they filled me with anxiety of going off-track so that I couldn't truly enjoy them. Using food as a reward only perpetuated my unhealthy relationship with food, and it troubled me in my approach to health.

After struggling for a couple of months, I came to realize the true colors of the cheat day. It goes to extremes — none or all. Also, cheat days imply that foods can be divided into “good” and “bad”. That's why I felt guilty when I had a piece of cake for breakfast instead of fat-free milk. But food, in fact, has no moral (道德的)value. It is simply intended to fill your body and provide nutrition. Hopefully it tastes good, too.

This simple thought has inspired me to quit cheat days. I don't feel worried or ashamed any more and start to reconsider my relationship with food. I just pay more attention to the signs of my stomach, and eat what I desire while being mindful of the health results. Doing away with cheat days lightens my mind and improves my relationship with food.

【1】What do people do on a "cheat day”?

A.Tell lies. B.Eat what they like.

C.Go on a diet. D.Try gaining weight.

【2】What does the underlined word “perpetuated” in paragraph 3 mean?

A.Ruined. B.Continued. C.Repaired. D.Improved.

【3】What does the author mainly want to tell us?

A.A healthy relationship with food matters.

B.One needn't feel guilty about eating little.

C.“Cheat day” is effective in nutrition control.

D.Losing weight does harm physically and mentally.

29、Best smartwatches you can purchase right now

Apple Watch SE

The Apple Watch SE is the best smartwatch money can buy right now, but it’s only the right choice for you if you own an iPhone. If you do have an iPhone, you may wonder why the Apple Watch 6 doesn’t take our title of the very best smartwatch? That’s because the Apple Watch SE does almost everything that smartwatch can, but for a much lower price.

The Apple Watch SE comes with a high-end design and a great range of features that you can’t get on every other smartwatch right now. The battery life isn’t the best on the market based on our tests, and there isn’t an always-on display, but if you’re after a great value for money choice for your next wrist companion you should opt for the Apple Watch SE.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 is a wearable that had a lot of publicity around it. This witnesses Samsung return to Wear OS, having used Tizen for recent models. But this isn’t Wear OS as you might know it — it’s a new take on the operating system, designed alongside Samsung, and with a very Tizen-like skin on the top.

Add to that great performance, what we found to be a comfortable fit, a lightweight build, and interesting new body composition measurement tools, and this makes for a top smartwatch, especially for those interested in tracking their health and fitness.

But with some of its features requiring a Samsung phone, and no support for iPhones, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 isn’t something we can recommend to everyone. It also arguably isn’t worth upgrading to if you already own a recent Galaxy Watch.

Apple Watch 6

The Apple Watch 6 hasn’t taken the top spot in our best smartwatch list, but this is the absolute best device you can get if you own an iPhone. Why isn’t it ranked above the Apple Watch SE? Because it’s a lot more expensive than that option.

It isn’t a huge upgrade over the Apple Watch 5 though. There are new features like blood oxygen monitoring and an upgraded chipset, but largely it’s a similar device with the exact same screen and design.

That said, if you’re after an Apple Watch this is the best from the company ever, we just found the lack of any major upgrades a slight disappointment.

【1】What is a disadvantage of the Apple Watch SE?

A．The display is always on.

B．The battery performance needs improving.

C．It is poor value for money.

D．It has a poor range of features.

【2】How does the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 distinguish itself from recent models?

A．It had a lot of publicity.

B．It can’t be recommended to everyone.

C．It is comfortable.

D．It employs a different operating system.

【3】What do the Apple Watch 5 and Apple Watch 6 have in common?

A．The blood oxygen monitor.

B．The screen.

C．The price.

D．The chipset.
