【题目】 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

【题目】Steps to Retire as a Millionaire
Having a million-dollar savings is a retirement dream for many people. Making that dream come true requires some serious efforts. While success is never a sure thing, the steps outlined below will go a long way toward helping you achieve your objective.
【1】
Vacations, cars, kids and all of life’s other expenses take a big chunk(大块) out of your paycheck. To maximize your savings, you need to minimize your expenses. Buying a home you can afford and living a lifestyle that is below your means and not funded by credit cards are all necessities if you want to boost your savings.
【2】
If you don’t save, you’ll never reach your goal. Obvious as this might seem, far too many people never even start to save. If your employer offers a 401(k) plan (一种养老保险), simply sign up for the plan and contributions will be automatically taken out of your paycheck, increasing your savings and decreasing your taxes. It’s like getting a guaranteed return on your investment. Finding the cash to stash (隐藏起) may be a challenge, particularly when you’re young, but don’t let that stop you from pursuing future riches.
【3】
If you are looking to grow your wealth over time, fixed income isn’t likely to get the job done, and inflation (通货膨胀) can take a big chunk out of your savings. Investing in equities (股票) may have more risk, but is also statistically likely to lead to greater returns. For many of us, it’s a risk we have to take if want to see our wealth grow.
【4】
Part of long-term planning involves accepting the idea that setbacks will occur. If you are not prepared, these setbacks can put a stop to your savings efforts. While you can’t avoid all of the bumps in the road, you can prepare in advance to reduce the damage they can do.
【5】
Your income should rise as time passes. You’ll get raises, you’ll change jobs, and maybe you’ll get married and become a two-income family. Every time more cash comes in to your pocket, you should increase the amount that you save. The key to reaching your goal as quickly as possible is to save as much as you can.
A. Watch Your Spending.
B. Prepare for Rainy Days.
C. Start Saving.
D. Get Aggressive.
E. Save More.
F. Set the Goal.
G. Have patience.
