It never rains but it pours. Just as bosses andboards have finally sorted out their worst accounting and compliance troubles，and improved their feeble corporation governance， a new problem threatens toearn them- especially in America-the sort of nasty headlines that inevitablylead to heads rolling in the executive suite： data insecurity. Left， until now，to odd， low-level IT staff to put right， and seen as a concern only of data-richindustries such as banking， telecoms and air travel， information protection isnow high on the boss's agenda in businesses of every variety.
Several massive leakages of customer and employee data this year- fromorganizations as diverse as Time Warner， the American defense contractor ScienceApplications International Corp and even the University of California.Berkeley-have left managers hurriedly peering into their intricate 11 systemsand business processes in search of potential vulnerabilities.
“Data is becoming an asset which needs no be guarded as much as any otherasset.” says I am Mendelson of Stanford University's business school “Theability guard customer data is the key to market value， which the board isresponsible for on behalf of shareholders” Indeed， just as there is the conceptof Generally Accepted Accounting Principles （GAAP）. perhaps it is time for GASP.Generally Accepted Security Practices， suggested Eli Noam of New York's ColumbiaBusiness School. “Setting the proper investment level for security， redundancy，and recovery is a management issue， not a technical one.” he says.
The mystery is that this should come as a surprise to any boss. Surely itshould be obvious to the dimmest exccutive that trust， that most valuable ofeconomic assets， is easily destroyed and hugely expensive to restore-and thatfew things are more likely to destroy trust than a company letting sensitivepersonal data get into the wrong hands.
The current state of affairs may have been encouraged-though notjustified-by the lack of legal penalty （in America， but not Europe） for dataleakage. Until California recently passed a law. American firms did not have totell anyone， even the victim， when data went astray， I hat may change fast lotsof proposed data-security legislation now doing the rounds in Washington.

单项选择题 根据下列材料，回答41～45题。 Directions： You are going to read a list of headings and a text about what parents are supposed to do to guide their children into adulthood. Choose a heading from the list A——G that best fits the meaning of each numbered part of the text （41——45）。 The first and last paragraphs of the text are not numbered. There are two extra headings that you do not need to use. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. （10 points）A． Set a Good Example for Your Kids B． Build Your Kid's Work Skills C． Place Time Limits on Leisure Activities D． Talk about the Future on a Regular Basis E． Help Kids Develop Coping Strategies F． Help Your Kids Figure Out Who They Are G. Build Your Kids Sense of Responsibility How Can a Parent Help？ Mothers and fathers can do a lot to ensure a safe landing in early adulthood for their kids. Even if a job's starting salary seems too small to satisfy an emerging adult's need for rapid content， the transition from school to work can be less of a setback if the start-up adult is ready for the move. Here are a few measures， drawn from my book Ready or Not， Here Life Comes， that parents can take to prevent what I call “work-life unread ness”。(41) _________________________________You can start this process when they are 11 or 12. Periodically review their emerging strengths and weaknesses with them and work together on any shortcomings, like difficulty in communicating well or collaborating. Also, identify the kinds of interests they keep coming back to, as these offer clues to the careers that will fit them best. (42) _________________________________Kids need a range of authentic role models-as opposed to members of their clique, pop stars and vaunted athletes. Have regular dinner-table discussions about people the family knows and how they got where they are. Discuss the joys and downsides of your own career and encourage your kids to form. some ideas about their own future. When asked what they want to do, they should be discouraged from saying “I have no ide They can change their minds 200 times, but having only a foggy view of the future is of little good. (43) _________________________________Teachers are responsible for teaching kids how to learn； parents should e responsible for teaching them how to work. Assign responsibilities around the house and make sure homework deadlines are met. Encourage teenagers to take a part-time job Kids need plenty of practice delaying gratification and deploying effective organizational skills, such as managing time and setting priorities. (44) _________________________________Paying video games encourages immediate content. And hours of watching TV shows with canned laughter only teaches kids to process information in a passive way. At the same time, listening through earphones to the same monotonous beats for long stretches encourages kids to stay inside their bubble instead of pursuing other endeavors. All these activities can prevent the growth of important communication and thinking skills and make it difficult for kids to develop the kind of sustained concentration they will need for most jods. (45) _________________________________They should know how to deal with setbacks, stresses and feelings of inadequacy. They should also learn how to solve problems and resolve conflicts, ways to brainstorm and think critically. Discussions at home can help kids practice doing these things and help them apply these skills to everyday life situations. What about the son or daughter who is grown but seems to be struggling and wandering aimlessly through early adulthood？ Parents still have a major role to play, but now it is more delicate. They have to be careful not to come across as disappointed in their child. They should exhibit strong interest and respect for

单项选择题 根据下列文章，回答21～25题。 If you were to examine the birth certificates of every soccer player in 2006's World Cup tournament you would most likely find a noteworthy quirk elite soccer later months. If you then examined the European national youth teams that feed the World Cup and professional ranks， you would find this strange phenomenon to be even more pronounced. What might account for this strange phenomenon？ Here are a few guesses： a） certain astrological signs confer superior soccer skills. b） winter-born bathes tend to have higher oxygen capacity which increases soccer stamina. c） soccer mad parents are more likely to conceive children in springtime at the annual peak of soccer mania. d） none of the above. Anders Ericsson， a 58-year-old psychology professor at Florida State University， says he believes strongly in “none of the above.” Ericsson grew up in Sweden， and studied nuclear engineering until he realized he realized he would have more opportunity to conduct his own research if he switched to psychology. His first experiment nearly years ago， involved memory： training a person to hear and then repeat a random series of numbers. “With the first subject. after about 20 hours of training his digit span had risen from 7 to 20，” Ericsson recalls. “He kept improving， and after about 200 hours of training he had risen to over 80 numbers.” This success coupled with later research showing that memory itself as not genetically determined， led Ericsson to conclude that the act of memorizing is more of a cognitive exercise than an intuitive one. In other words， whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize those differences are swamped by how well each person “encodes” the information. And the best way to learn how to encode information meaningfully， Ericsson determined， was a process known as deliberate practice. Deliberate practice entails more than simply repeating a task. Rather， it involves setting specific goals， obtaining immediate feedback and concentrating as much on technique as on outcome. Ericsson and his colleagues have thus taken to studying expert performers in a wide range of pursuits， including soccer. They gather all the data they can， not just predominance statistics and biographical details but also the results of their own lavatory experiments with high achievers. Their work makes a rather startling assertion： the trait we commonly call talent is highly overrated. Or， put another way， expert performers whether in memory or surgery， ballet or computer programming are nearly always made， not born. 第 21 题 The birthday phenomenon found among soccer players is mentioned toA．stress the importance of professional training.B．spotlight the soccer superstars in the World Cup. C．introduce the topic of what males expert performance. D．explain why some soccer teams play better than others.
