For many kids,the Internet is at their fingertips.From computers to smart phones,a web of information is open to them.According to a new report,about three out of four kids aged 12 to 15 connect the Internet using a mobile device from time to time.Many younger kids are online too.
Julian Zeitlinger,9,from New Jersey,uses his computer to watch videos and play games.To keep him safe online,his parents monitor his web use and discuss Internet safety with him.“I ask my parents whether something is nice or bad,” Julian says.
Mobile devices offer more ways than ever to share personal information.The information can be dangerous in the wrong hands.A study found that 62% of children aged 8 to 17 have had an unpleasant online experience.
Have you ever had to enter a parent's e-mail address when signing up for a website?That safety measure is there because of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).The law says sites for kids under 13 cannot collect personal information,such as a phone number or full name,without a parent's permission.
This July,the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will update COPPA for the first time since the law was created in 1998 when there were no smart phones.“The nature of the way kids get online has changed,” FTC lawyer Phyllis Marcus said.
When the changes take effect,COPPA will apply to mobile devices and newer forms of advertising.It will expand what falls under “personal information” to include videos,photographs,and services that give users' location.
COPPA doesn't cover everything that can go wrong online.That is why kids and parents need to know what to look out for and to stop and think before sharing information online.
“There is a misunderstanding that if a site is following COPPA,it is totally safe,” says privacy expert Shai Samet.He runs KidSAFE,which checks whether a site meets KidSAFE standards and is safe.“It's important that kids know how useful the Internet is but that it also can be dangerous if you are not careful.” he adds.
1.Julian's parents check his web use to make sure__________. A.he doesn't watch too many videos
B.he doesn't play computer games C.he controls his online time D.he stays safe on the Internet 2.What's one of the changes with COPPA?
A.It broadens the concept of person information. B.It prevents users from making their location public. C.It covers everything that goes wrong online. D.It says no to any kind of advertising.
3.People often hold the wrong idea that__________. A.formal websites are always safe
B.the Internet is becoming safer and safer C.COPPA can ensure their complete safety D.daily checks prevent future online problems 4.Why does the author write the passage? A.To ask parents to look out for their kids. B.To talk about online safety for children. C.To introduce a new law. D.To sell an online product.
答案:[解题导语]本文是说明文,主要介绍了儿童上网的安全问题及COPPA网络安保法案的成因、发展等特征。
1.D 解析:根据文章第二段第二句To keep him safe online,his parents monitor his web use and discuss Internet safety with him.可知Julian的父母是处于安全考虑才管控他上网。所以D项正确。
2.A 解析:根据文章第六段第二句话It will expand what falls under “personal information” to include videos,photographs,and services that give users' location可知COPPA把隐私信息的范围拓展到多个方面。所以A项正确。
3.C 解析:根据文章最后一段第一句话 “There is a misunderstanding that if a site is following COPPA,it is totally safe,” 可知人们总会误解COPPA是绝对安全的。所以C项正确。另外学生容易只关注 “安全” 这个关键词,而忽略A项主语formal websites不符合原文。
4.B 解析:本文首先描述了网络在孩子中间的普及,又通过引用Julian家的网络应用情况引出了COPPA网络安保法案并加以介绍。所以本文的主角是 “网络安全”,主线是网络安全的近况及发展。所以B项正确。
Ⅱ.阅读填空
[2017·黑龙江重点中学联考]
What is a big dream?__1__Or,is a big dream something that provides only entertainment?Children dream big dreams,but there are three barriers to realizing dreams.They often kill them before they ever have a chance to grow.
The Self
Immediately following the birth of a big dream,a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it cannot happen.This inside voice is the ego (自我).It's there for protecting and should be listened to.__2__Most people are influenced by the inside voice.That's why only a handful of people make their dream come true.
__3__
Family and friends are a lot like the ego.They want to protect those they love,so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won't come true.Sometimes,family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most,out of their own fear of being left behind.
The World
If one gets past the first two barriers,one has to face the world.__4__In the past,big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world.Fortunately,in most of the world today,big dreamers just get laughed at.
The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action.When children have confidence and then take action,they will be ready to accept any failure.The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well.__5__
A.Family and Friends B.How Big Dreams Die
C.Does a big dream show one's future? D.They simply fail until they succeed.
E.It is the last and the most terrible barrier. F.Sometimes it is right,but more often it is wrong.
G.And their big dream is to be a rock star or a famous artist.
答案:[解题导语]本文是一篇说明文。什么是梦想?梦想能够实现吗?作者认为,人们要实现梦想,必须克服三大障碍。也正是这三大障碍,常常将人们的梦想扼杀在摇篮中。
