　　3. There is a general debate nowadays about the problem of itinerant workers . Those who object to the rising migrant population argue that increasing numbers lead to rising crime rates and harm social stability .

But do they raelize that rapidly advancing information technology can also lead to intrusions of privacy ?

　　越來(lái)越多的人通過(guò)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)進(jìn)入了“信息時(shí)代”。針對(duì)這一現(xiàn)象，一些人認(rèn)為互聯(lián)網(wǎng)消除了障礙，為人們提供了與世界即時(shí)鏈接的途徑。但是，他們有沒(méi)有意識(shí)到迅速發(fā)展的信息技術(shù)也能導(dǎo)致侵犯隱私?

　　8. The use of guanxi is a widespread method for conducting business , but is it a wise one ? The method is now being challenged by more and more people .

　　20. Never before in history has the issue of overpopulation been more evident than now .
