22、 Here’s the scary thing about the identity-theft ring that the feds cracked last week: there was nothing any of its estimated 40,000 victims could have done to prevent it from happening. This was an inside job, according to court documents. A lowly help-desk worker at Teledata Communications, a software firm that helps banks access credit reports online, allegedly (据说)stole passwords for those reports and sold them to a group of 20 thieves at $60 a pop. That allowed the gang to cherry-pick consumers with good credit and apply for all kinds of accounts in their names. Cost to the victims: $3 million and rising.
Even scarier is that this, the largest identity-theft bust to date, is just a drop in the bit bucket. More than 700,000 Americans have their credit hijacked every year. It’s one of crime’s biggest growth markets. A name, address and Social Security number--which can often be found on the Web--is all anybody needs to apply for a bogus(伪造的)line of credit. Credit companies make $1.3 trillion annually and lose less than 2% of that revenue(收入)to fraud, so there’s little financial incentive for them to make the application process more secure. As it stands now, it’s up to you to protect your identity.
The good news is that there are plenty of steps you can take. Most credit thieves are opportunists, not well-organized gangs. A lot of them go Dumpster diving for those millions of “pre-approved” credit-card mailings that go out every day. Others steal wallets and return them, taking only a Social Security number. Shredding your junk mail and leaving your Social Security card at home can save a lot of agony later.
But the most effective way to keep your identity clean is to check your credit reports once or twice a year. There are three major credit-report outfits: Equifax (at equifax.com), Trans-Union (www.transunion.com) and Experian (experian.com). All allow you to order reports online, which is a lot better than wading through voice-mail hell on their 800 lines. Of the three, I found TransUnion’s website to be the cheapest and most comprehensive--laying out state-by-state prices, rights and tips for consumers in easy-to-read fashion.
If you’re lucky enough to live in Colorado, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey or Vermont, you are entitled to one free report a year by law. Otherwise it’s going to cost $8 to $14 each time. Avoid services that offer to monitor your reports year-round for about $70; that’s $10 more than the going rate among thieves. If you think you’re a victim of identity theft, you can ask for fraud alerts to be put on file at each of the three credit-report companies. You can also download a theft-report form at www.consumer.gov/idtheft, which, along with a local police report, should help when irate creditors come knocking. Just don’t expect justice. That audacious help-desk worker was one of the fewer than 2% of identity thieves who are ever caught.
【1】The expression “inside job”(Line 2, Paragraph 1) most probably means _________.
A.a crime committed by a person working for the victim
B.a crime that should be punished severely
C.a crime that does great harm to the victim
D.a crime that poses a great threat to the society
【2】You can protect your identity in the following way except _________.
A.destroying your junk mail
B.leaving your Social Security card at home
C.visiting the credit-report website regularly
D.obtaining the free report from the government
【3】It is easy to have credit-theft because __________.
A.More people are using credit service B.The application program is not safe enough
C.Creditors usually disclose their identity D.Creditors are not careful about their identity
【4】The best title of the text is __________.
A.The danger of credit-theft B.The loss of the creditors
C.How to protect your good name D.Why the creditors lose their identity
23、 As a student, if you intend to gain more life experience during the Spring-Break, traveling is a nice idea. But if you don’t have enough money for a trip, the following suggestions will help.
Saving money in your daily life is probably the most important preparation for travelling. Cut expenses to fatten your wallet so you will have more choices about where to go and how to get there.
Plan your trip early and write it down. Keep the written plan at hand and stick to it during the tour, or you may not have enough money to cover everything.
Buy tickets and make other preparations early as it can mean greater security and savings. Don’t forget to pack such necessary things as necessary clothing, some common medicines and even some snacks (零食), as those things in the traveling places may be much more expensive than usual.
Do some research in advance. Travel books and some websites will help you to choose where to go. Those hot places are both expensive and crowded, so I advise you to go to less-known ones, such as small towns with interesting customs and unique sights.
Travel with several reliable students with interest in the same places, and you can share costs and experiences with each other. And you can work in the traveling places together to earn money to support your trip and be safer as well.
【1】The underlined words “fatten your wallet” probably mean ________.
A.making your wallet larger

Dear Dr Lisa,
My name is Ann. I am 13 and worried about my weight.I want to be a model,but I store lots of fat in my face,legs and stomach. I look at myself in the mirror,and then go into my room and Cry. I'm scared to talk about it. My parents' comforting words just don't ring true to me. My friends are shocked when they find out how much I weigh. I don't know what to do. I've diagnosed(诊断)myself with BDD(body dysmorphic disorder 躯体变形障碍症),too.
Yours,
Ann
9 October,2020
Dear Ann,
I am worried about your problem.So much worry at 13. That was me, too, hating my body. So I understand a little of how you feel. I was 21 when I got help and I wish I’d got earlier. I wish someone had told me that as you enter the teenage years,your body changes and so does your brain, and that the things troubling you now just won't be problems as you get older.
The way you feel about yourself appears to be about your physical appearance,but it's this self-hatred(自我憎恨) that needs to be worked out. Then you will see your confidence grow.
Since you're in your teenage years,you are very probably not "done growing”,so you needn't diet at this age. Eat healthily and exercise within reason. Being thin or pretty doesn't make you feel better inside.Besides,remember that proper diagnosis of BDD can only come from an expert. Don’t worry about that.
Hope I've helped.
Yours,
Lisa
