Seventeen-year-old Randy Waldron, Jr. was shocked when he applied for his first credit card and was denied. He was even more shocked by the reason: He failed to repay thousands of dollars in debt.

   Waldron’s identity had been stolen by his father, who left when Randy was learning to walk. Form 1982 to 1999, Randy Waldron, Sr, used his son’s Social Security number to obtain credit from various merchants and lenders, then racked up tens of thousands of dollars in debts. He declared bankruptcy in his son’s name, which resulted in default judgments against the younger Waldron. It has taken Randy Jr. now a 24-year-old flight attended, years to untangle the mess.

Waldron isn’t alone. Identity theft is this country’s fastest-growing crime-and, increasingly, ID thieves are targeting children. Their clean credit and absence of criminal histories make them ideal victims.

Linda Foley，co-executive director of the Identity Theft Resource Center in San Diego estimates that at least 400，000 children had their identities stolen in 2005．more than double the number in 2003．Waldron's case is typical: The resource center estimates that two -thirds of child ID thefts are committed by family members．   

Some dishonest persons use children‘s names and Social Security numbers to ring up massive debts；others use children’s identities in place of their own when caught committing other crimes：still others sell identification information on the black market to illegal immigrants, fellow criminals or even terrorists The theft brings its victims enormous financial and emotional trauma

(创伤)，in part because the identity abuse often goes undetected for years

Dealing with child identity theft after it happens is extremely difficult．Laws in many states are insufficient to handle the crime’s complexity, and financial institutions are often less than helpful Randy Waldron，Jr．，has worked tirelessly for eight years to straighten out his credit record，and he continues to deal with the fallout．”It‘s been a very long and arduous battle，“he says．

”Recovering my identity was really the absolute hardest part．I think a lot of victims assume the problem will go away．”

63．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A．Child Identity Theft

B．How to Avoid Identity Theft

C．Recover My Identity

D．Look o kit for Family Members

64 Why do children easily become the targets of identity theft?

A. Because they cannot read or write at a young age.

B. Because they have empty credit and criminal records

C. Because they are too young to protect themselves

D. Because identity theft can’t be found in time

65. With the help of the child’s identity, the criminals can d0 the following except      

A．obtain credits from various merchants and lenders

B．substitute for their own identities when caught committing crimes

C．straighten out their own credit record

D．sell identification information on the black market

66．It can be inferred from the passage that         ．

A．New laws should be made to help the identity theft victims

B．Children should never trust their family members

C．Financial institutions should be responsible for the identity theft

D．Identity theft is the fastest-growing crime in the country

TOURNAMENT OF ROSES
-- 5 Days Los Angeles

Bissel is a small village of the West Sahara. It lies next to a l.5-square-kilometer oasis（绿洲）, from where three days and nights are generally required to go out of the desert. However, before Ken Levin discovered it in 1926, none of the Bissel villagers had ever walked out of the desert. Reportedly, they were not unwilling to leave this barren land. Many had previously tried but failed, always somehow finding themselves back at the oasis after several days of trying to walk out.

When interviewed by Ken Levin, an expert at the British Royal College of Sciences, the villagers explained that no matter which direction they walked it always brought them back to the village.Why couldn’t the Bissel villagers walk out of the desert? Levin was very puzzled. He had, by himself, managed to walk north from the village and reach the nearest town in three and a half days. He decided to carry out an experiment to solve the mystery. He and a Bissel villager called Argutel, would walk out of the desert together. They prepared enough water for a half-a-month journey and two camels. But this time Ken Levin didn't bring his compass. Levin would follow Argutel.

Ten days later, they had walked for about 500 miles but were still in the desert. On the 11th morning, an oasis came into their view. They were back at Bissel. Levin now understood why the Bissel people couldn’t escape the desert. They had no knowledge of the North Star, which had for centuries provided sailors and other travelers with a point of direction. In the desert, if a person goes forward relying only on their senses, they will not be able to travel in a straight line. Rather they will travel in a very large circle and eventually track back to where they began. Levin explained to Argutel the function of the North Star and said, “As long as you rest in the daytime and walk towards the brightest star at night, you would be able to walk out of the desert.” Argutel did as he was told. Three days later, he came to the edge of the desert.

Now in the West Sahara, Bissel has become a bright pearl, where tens of thousands of tourists come every year. Argutel’s bronze statue stands in the center of the town. On its base are the words: __________________________.

3.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
