We often give our personal information to stores. That     86     our birth date, personal ID number, and home address. When we apply for a store membership, we give our information to a stranger. When buying something online, we do the same thing.
87    work hard to get that information. They- steal receipts(收据) and     88     computers. They also try to steal our passwords. They can use that information to become" another person. That’s identity theft.
One common crime is to apply for a credit card using     89     else’s name. The thief buys expensive things but doesn’t pay the bill. That can hurt a victims credit. With bad credit, it’s harder to get bank or car loans.
90     can you prevent identity theft? First, be careful about giving away personal information.    91    give someone your birth date and personal ID number when necessary. Second, tear up old credit card receipts and bank statements if you don’t want them. Finally, some experts recommend paying in cash as much as possible.

All living things on the earth need other living things to live. Nothing lives alone. Most animals must live in a group, and even a plant grows close together with others of the same kind. Sometimes one living thing kills another, one eats and the other is eaten. Each kind of life eats another kind of life in order to live, and together they form a food chain(食物链).Some food chains are simple, while others are not. But all food chains begin with the sun, and all food chains become broken up if one of the links disappears.
All life needs sunlight to live on. But only plants can use sunlight directly. Plants are“factories”.They make food from sunlight, water and things in the soil and air.
Plants feed all other living things. Animals can only use the sun’s energy after it has been changed into food by plants. Some animals feed directly on plants, others eat smaller animals. Meat-eating animals are only eating plants indirectly.
What about human beings? We are members of many food chains. We eat wheat, rice, vegetables, fruits and so on. We also eat meat and drink milk. But men often break up the food chains. They kill wild animals. They also make rivers, lakes and seas dirty. When these rivers, lakes and seas are polluted, the fish in them cannot be eaten. If men eat the fish, they will get strange diseases.
Each form of life is linked to all others. Breaking the links puts all life in danger.

A new term has begun. Teachers are   36   about the fact that new students are not easy to handle. They like to bring cellphones and MP3 players to school. What is   37  ,some students even use cellphones to do with out-of-class matters in class,or sometimes just for fun. Some other students listen to MP3 players when they are having a lesson that they are not interested in.
Are these new students really that   38  ? ’Yes,’ says Delaney Kirk,a professor at Drake University.  39  she adds it’s not their fault. Instead, the things that they bring into school---cellphones,MP3 players and so on --- and the teachers are to blame. Kirk first began thinking about students’ manners six years ago. ‘I had my first class in which students were sleeping or talking to each other. It seemed that learning well   40  nothing to do with them,’ she says. ’At first,I got worried about this,but then I said to myself, "You’re teaching  41 ,and you need to  manage this…These students need to know more about manners. It’s time to help them develop some good    42  . They shouldn’t waste time doing nothing when they are young. Sooner or later,they might regret the time they have wasted."’
Kirk also    43   a list of suggestions to help teachers better manage their classes. The following are among her suggestions
●  Tell students how they will benefit by taking the class. On the first day of class,emphasize its importance    44   giving some homework that students must turn in next time.
●  Do not allow them to bring cellphones and MP3 players to the class at all.
■  Decide  45  formal and informal the class will be.
