Until recently the opportunities for criminal activities on the Internet have been low. However， the volume of business done on the Internet is growing rapidly，as people order books and other products and make money transactions. All this is creating temptations for hackers(黑客).

Hackers are often young people who are interested in computers. They use them to move quietly to the Internet，looking for ways to break into computers systems run by banks，telephone companies and even Government departments. They look for examples of credit cards and try to steal the numbers.

Hackers rarely admit to a successful break-in. The first indication of a hacking may be when a customer discovers a wrong money transaction on a credit card account.

a student who finished his work before all the others and needed something more difficult for him to do. "Could you help me in the library？"she asked. I said, "Send him along."

Soon, a golden-haired boy appeared. "Do you have a job for me？" he asked. I told him about a system for sorting books. He picked up the idea immediately. Then I showed him some cards for some unreturned books that I thought had been returned but not recorded. Maybe some books were put on wrong places. He said, "Is it a kind of a detective(侦探) job？" I answered yes, and then began his work.

He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and said, "Time for rest!" he argued for finishing the finding job, but the teacher won.

The next morning, he arrived early, "I want to finish these books," he said. At the end of the day, when he asked to work with me more often, it was easy for me to say yes.

e than a happy marriage and family in the countryside. The average 29-year-old women now long for a return to the lifestyle. of a 1950s housewife. The modern women are more realistic. Research into the attitudes of 1500 women with an average age of 29 found that 61 percent believe it is “unhelpful” and “annoying” for the women to deal with jobs, motherhood and social lives at the same time. More than two-thirds agree that the man should be the main provider in a family, while 70 percent do not want to work as hard as their mother’s generation. On average, the women questioned want to settle down with their partner by 30 and have their first child a year later. So, after decades of increasing divorce rates and a rise in birth outside marriage, it appears the current generation of mothers is returning to more traditional social values. As the survey showed, nine out of ten young women would rather be married when they have children, while 75 percent believe that modern couples do not make an enough effort to stay together when there is something wrong between them. A quarter of those questioned intend to give up work and be a full-time mother when they start a family, with just one percent saying their career will remain a “top priority” once they have children.
