It was as good a place for the baby to be as any other and I never 6 about why it got in nor how it would finally get out.
A baby would come? I 7 noticed. That there were soon to be 8 of us would not make any difference to me. I had my place, star-like in my small universe. 9_, certainly not a baby, could 10 that.
I was 11 , however. I soon found that things had 12 a great deal. I had never been the 13 . Now I was no longer the youngest. I was simply the one in the 14 . My sister had certain 15 because she was the oldest, and my brother was the baby, the son, the much 16 boy. More than that, he had all sorts of things that never came to me.
As he grew, it became 17 that my brother had been the center of everything. People smiled when they saw him. He made them happy 18 by being there. And he had the sort of childish beauty that always turns heads and draws a second 19 .He was so charming that he was immediately lovable.

Can you imagine a stranger will read your e – mails without your permission or scan the website you’ve visited or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills? All of the things may happen to you one day.
In fact，it’s likely that some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission?

Whoever it is，they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen or even do something that may bring a disaster to you.
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, and that it's important to reveal to friends, family and lovers at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain nowadays. The digital bread crumbs (碎屑) you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to know who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can leak the deepest thought in your mind. Like it or not, increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.

45．What would be the best title for the passage?
A．No privacy, no health.
B．Treasure your privacy.
C．Boundaries are important between friends.
D．The information age has its own shortcomings.
Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the Website 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 girl friend, 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 ---- the 21st century replacement of being caught naked.
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, that it's important to reveal yourself to friends, family and lovers in stages, at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain. The digital bread crumbs(碎屑) 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?
For many Americans, the answer apparently is "no."
When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found a strong bad feeling 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 preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths(收费站) to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. And few turn down supermarket loyalty cards. Privacy economist Alessandro Acquisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will give away personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon(优惠卷)。
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.
