A caring mother is the single most important factor in Preventing teenagers from abusing(滥用)drugs and alcohol，researchers said on Friday. An international study showed that teenagers living with both parents are less likely to suffer from alcohol and drug problems，and a strong maternal bond is the most effective way to fight against them.
“These findings suggest that living with both parents may prevent drug use.”said Dr.McArdle，of Newcastle University in northern England,who led the study.“They also suggest that attachment(感情眷念)，particularly to mothers，is a more effective factor and that this is truly across cultures and substances.”The report,which is published in the journal Addiction,involved nearly 4,000 teenagers in England, Ireland, Italy，Germany and the Netherlands.They were questioned about their use of several kinds of drugs and alcohol.The teenagers also filled in questionnaires about their relationship with their parents and grandparents,how well they were supervised(监护)after school and whether they were allowed to meet friends at home.
“Both the quality of family relationships and the structure of families have significant influences on youth drug use,”McArdle said in a statement.But he added a strong maternal bond offered the greatest protection against developing drug habits.The rate of drug abuse among teenagers living with both parents and who had a good relationship with their mother was 16.6 percent.If either factor was missing ,the drug abuse rate rose to 32 percent．More than 42 percent of teenagers living in one parent families who did not have a strong bond with their mother used drugs．
Drug prevention campaigns in British schools and on television warn teenagers about the danger of drugs and alcohol but McArdle said no one is dealing with the problem of their parents’ responsibility.
21.The phrase“maternal bond”refers to__________． A. the education of mothers B. the supervision of mothers on children C. whether the mother uses drugs D. the guidance of schools on mothers 22. According to McArdle,which is most likely to have the drug abuse problem? A.16-year-old Tom from a happy big family．
B.17-year-old Kate supervised by her single mother． C.18-year-old Juliet living with her single father． D.19-year-old Mark cared by his parents.

A. Teenagers with both parents won’t have the drug use problem. B. Teenagers from several countries filled in the questionnaire. C. Teenagers were asked about their relationship with parents． D. Teenagers in British schools are warned against drugs abuse. 24. The last paragraph suggests that________.

One in three Americans get news through Facebook, according to a study from the Pew Research Center.
\"People go to Facebook mainly to share personal moments - and they discover \"the news almost incidentally,\" Amy Mitchell, director of journalism research at Pew, said in a statement.
The survey is the first part of a series of studies that the Pew Research Center, together with the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation is conducting to examine social media and news consumption.
The study said that about two-thirds of all U.S. adults use Facebook, the world's largest social media site which displays a platform where people and publishers can share news. Only 4 percent of Facebook news consumers said the platform is the most important way they obtain their news.
Social media is playing an increasingly important role in how people find news. The trend is growing especially among young people who prefer to get news through platforms like Twitter or Facebook rather than through traditional forms of print or broadcast television.
In an earlier study, Pew found that 34 percent of people aged 18-24 get news through social media compared with 10 percent of adults between the ages of 50 and 64.
The current Pew study found that adults aged 18-29 account for a third of Facebook news consumers.
Facebook Twitter and LinkedIn are all experimenting with ways to aggregate and share news as a way to keep people coming back to their platforms. On Monday, Facebook said that traffic to publishers' sites increased by 170 percent through the past year.
Facebook users are not discriminating when it comes to the source of news - 70 percent click on news stories because of interest in the topic. Only 20 percent said they read a story based on the news organization.
25. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Facebook is popular in the world. B. Old people are familiar with Facebook. C. Facebook is the main source of news.
D. People happen to discover the news on Facebook. 26. What's the main purpose for people to use Facebook?
A. To make friends. B. To discover news.
C. To do journalism research. D. To share private moments. 27. What is the purpose of the survey in this passage? A. To show American young people's interests. B. To examine social media and news consumption. C. To introduce Facebook to people all over the world. D. To tell us that there are many kinds of news platforms. 28. What is TRUE about the social media?
A. Social media is a popular way for the young people to get news. B. More adults than teenagers consume news from social media.
C. Print and broadcast television are the main ways for the young to get news. D. The news consumers are also the news providers in traditional social media. 29. Which of the following interests the Facebook users most?

As the Internet and computer use become more common, the need for security is more important than ever. According to the latest statistical analysis, it is estimated there are over 1.1 billion Internet users worldwide. The Internet provides diverse and useful resources such as Email, instant messaging, academic research, product research, paying bills, shopping, online banking, and the list goes on and on. For many of its 1.1 billion users the Internet is not just a tool but a way of life. But most users fail to take the time to research the risks involved. One of the greatest in the online world is computer hacking.
Computer hacking is the unauthorized access to a computer or network of computers. Hackers, those people who illegally enter systems, may alter or delete information, steal private information, or spread viruses that can damage or destroy files. But how exactly can a hacker get into a system to do these things?
Most hackers use information called protocols (协议) that are built into computer software. These protocols allow computers to interact with one another. Protocols are sort of like computer police officers. When a computer connects to another system, the protocols check to see if the access is valid. The protocols can also determine how much information can be shared between the two systems. Hackers can manipulate (操纵) the protocols to get unlimited access to a computer system. In fact, just the act of entering a computer network is considered hacking. This is commonly called passive hacking. Passive hackers get a rush from just being able to invade a challenging system like a bank or military network. Hackers that do damage to a system by releasing viruses or altering, deleting, or taking information are known as active hackers. They are, by far, the more dangerous of the two.
The easiest way to protect a system is with a good password. Long and unusual passwords, instead of your date of birth or telephone number, are harder for hackers to guess. For even greater security, some online services now use “password-plus” systems. In this case, users first put in a password and then put in a second code that changes after the user accesses the site. Users have special cards or devices that show them the new code to use the next time. So if a hacker steals the password, they won’t have the code. Or if the hacker somehow gets the code, they still don’t know the password. (1) ______ in the Online World Who threats the online world?
